Chapter 28 I’ve Seen The Ring Before

It was almost after midnight Maurice was sitting by the French window in his riverside villa, browsing

through the documents in his laptop.

Corbin rushed to him in a hurry and reported, "Mr, Moran, Gerald’s men were spotted around the old

mansion.And I am sure that they must be looking for that ring."

"Whatever."

Maurice did not even raise his head.His uncle’s efforts would be completely futile.His men had already

searched the old mansion, and they did not find a thing.

Thus, he didn’t think that his uncle would find any clue.

Once Maurice was done looking at the documents, he subconsciously clicked on a photo.

A gentle-looking woman was holding a child.

There was a ring on her finger in the picture.

Maurice unconsciously enlarged the ring in the photo several times.

The ring had a very simple design all over.It was frosted, and decorated with natural gemstones and

quaint patterns.

Besides the fact that it was the thing that his mother had left him, it was also something that

represented the supreme power of his family.

If someone had really taken it on purpose, then they would have enough power on their hands to turn

the situation around in the corporate world.

"Eh? I’ve seen this ring before."

A child’s weak voice attracted their attention.

Silas stood beside Maurice as he gazed at the screen, tilting his head.

Maurice immediately enlarged the ring in the picture again, showed it to him, and asked seriously,

"Have you really seen it before? Where did you see it?"

However, Silas snorted and turned around.

"I forgot."

"Silas."

Maurice narrowed his eyes at him.

Seeing that he was about to lose his temper, Corbin immediately pulled Silas away, and said, "The ring

is ancient, and I doubt Mr.Gorman ever saw it."

He winked at Silas, who rolled his eyes at him.

Seeing that, Corbin was embarrassed.

‘Well, I did it for nothing, I guess.! “

"Silas is not a child who would talk nonsense."

Maurice’s mellow voice came, and Silas became stiff for a moment before he slowly lifted his head and

looked at his uncle.

"Don’t pretend like you know me well!"

With a sigh, Maurice reached out to touch Silas’s head.

However, Silas turned away, dodging him.

Maurice smiled and ordered Corbin, "Go and check if he’s right.I want you to investigate everyone he’s

met, including his kindergarten classmates."

"Yes, sir!"

Saying that, Corbin nodded and left.

Maurice lowered his eyes and rubbed his fingers.

All of a sudden, he remembered the two children he had seen Silas talking to at the bakery… Did the

ring have anything to do with those kids? Meanwhile, Eliana opened the door, and saw that it was dark

inside.

‘Are they all asleep?’ She felt guilty.

A lot had happened since that morning, and she had come home late.

Hence, she could not spend time with her children.She did not notice that the room door was open, and

warm light was coming from the gap.

"Mommy! Happy birthday!"

Adrian’s and Aileen’s voice sounded like music to her ears.She turned around in surprise and saw the

twins holding a big cake in their hands with candles on it.

Their eyes were glowing with joy and their smiles were beautifully innocent.

Moved by their love, Eliana smiled at him.She wanted to help them put the cake on the table, but

Adrian shook his head firmly.

"Mommy, it’s your birthday today, and you must not do anything.Let us do everything for you!"

"That’s right! Let us do it!"

Aileen nodded in agreement.

Eliana’s nose twitched and tears welled up in her eyes.

The kids put the cake down on the table gently, turned around, and held Eliana’s hands as they walked

her to the table.

"Mommy, sit down! Eliana sat down in front of the cake with a smile.After taking a careful look at it, she

raised her eyebrows in surprise.It looked just like the one that Preston had prepared for her.

‘What a coincidence! "This is the cake that Silas got you, and he wanted us to let you know that he also

wishes you a very happy birthday!" Adrian explained.

"If only he was here to eat the cake with us!" Aileen grinned sweetly.

Eliana’s heart softened at once.

She held her kids lovingly, and said, "I love your surprise a lot.Thank you, my darlings."

Aileen jumped up and kissed her on the cheek.

Adrian also smiled, and after singing the birthday song with his sister, he urged, "Mommy, make a wish!

Hurry!"

Eliana slowly closed her eyes, enjoying the happy moment! Aileen and Adrian were really a gift from

God.

No matter what difficulties she was facing, she was determined to protect them and help them grow up

peacefully.
