Chapter 382

As a result of Eliana’s inattention, she choked on her cake.

She started coughing heavily.

Maurice stood up, poured her a glass of wine, and promptly presented it to her. To assist Eliana

breathe more easily, he rubbed her back.

“Hey, go slow on the cake. Are you all right?”

Eliana continued to cough.

It was hard for her to speak.

Her cheeks flushed. No one knew it was due to her choking or embarrassment.

Eliana accepted the wine from Maurice and took quite a gulp before her coughing subsided.

Her eyes were filled with tears as she glanced up at Maurice. “Thanks a lot.”

Maurice groaned hopelessly and tenderly, “You…”

Maurice suddenly touched the corner of Eliana’s lips.

He quietly removed the cream from Eliana’s lips and tasted it.

“It’s a nice flavor.”

Eliana was perplexed as to whether Maurice was referring to her or the cream in general.

She hoped someone could take this guy away from her sight!

As a result, Eliana felt dizzy at this point. Her face turned redder, and her gaze shifted from Maurice.

Due to the drink and the guy in front of her, she seemed intoxicated.

When Maurice looked at the gorgeous lady, his libido was awakened.

Eliana approached him instinctively as he leaned down.

The distance between the two people’s faces was narrowing.

The door was suddenly knocked out of nowhere!

In an instant, Eliana comprehended what had occurred. In a rush, she extended her hand toward

Maurice and shoved him away from her.

Maurice, on the other hand, didn’t give a hoot about it. He pulled Eliana over and passionately kissed

her.

“Mau… Maurice… Someone is at the door!”

Eliana was having a hard time and reminded him.

The sound of someone knocking on the door became louder.

Maurice eventually released Eliana and opened the door with rage.

At first glance, he couldn’t find anybody.

Was he the victim of a practical joke?

Then, Maurice felt his shirt being tugged.

He lowered his gaze and saw a tiny, cute girl staring up at him.

Aileen’s eyes glowed as she studied the attractive guy in front of her with interest.

The hell! Adrian contemplated in his head.

He covered his sister’s lips and inquired, “Hello, is our mommy in the room?” before Aileen cried out

“daddy.”

Eliana sat on the chair and attempted to take a deep breath. Upon hearing Adrian’s voice, she

reflexively looked towards the door to check what was happening. “Aileen and Adrian? I’m right here!”

“Mommy!”

Maurice was unable to stop Aileen and Adrian from entering the room.

Eliana cradled the children in her arms.

“What brought you here? You’re meant to be with Nana, not here,” Eliana inquired as she held the

twins in her arms, her expression surprised.

Adrian swiftly responded, “Nana gave us your room number, and we decided to bring ourselves here.”

“And where exactly is Nana?” Eliana looked towards the entrance again and didn’t notice anyone else.

“What made her allow you out here by yourselves?”

Smiling truthfully, Aileen shook her head. “The two of us sneaked away.”

“You sneaked out of your room!”

Eliana’s mouth dropped open in disbelief.

“Yes, Nana has just hit the spa. In the room, boredom prevailed.”

Nana was so careless.

Eliana grabbed up her phone and dialed Nana’s number right away, but the phone rang for a long time

without anybody picking it up.

While the three were conversing, Maurice locked the door and approached them.

Adrian kept a wary eye on Maurice, who came into Eliana’s chamber at night.

“You’re familiar to me. You are Silas’ uncle. Why have you entered my mommy’s room?”

This guy was a scumbag employer who squeezed his own mother!

Aileen had mentioned a new dad, and it was this guy!

It made Adrian angry when he contemplated it. Looking at Maurice, he made an angry look.

Maurice’s mood had deteriorated since the kiss was interrupted. When he turned to see Adrian glaring

coldly at him, his mood had just become worse.

“You are forbidden from entering your mommy’s room.”

Maurice was ready to request that someone return the twins to their room.

“Aileen and I want to stay with Mommy, and therefore we won’t go,” Adrian responded, raising his stoic

chin.

Adrian and Maurice exchanged a look of callousness. Both of them were unwilling to compromise.

Despite his age, Adrian had imposing presence that rivaled that of Maurice’s.

Aileen’s soothing voice abruptly startled the two as they were fiercely battling with one another.

“Guys, disagreeing is a waste of time. My stomach is growling…”
