Chapter 590
The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy
That night, sitting on the edge of the bed, Eliana was reading fairy tales to Aileen and Adrian.
After such a hectic day, Aileen was so tired that she fell asleep early.
Adrian, meanwhile, couldnât stop thinking about the fact that they were nearly kidnapped. He tossed
and turned in bed and couldnât fall asleep.
Eliana had just finished reading the story and was about to leave the room when a small hand suddenly
grabbed hers.
âMommy, I canât fall asleep. Can you stay with me?â Adrian asked in a low voice, looking at Eliana
earnestly.
Adrian was not the kind of child constantly asking for attention. So, Eliana couldnât say no to him now.
âOkay, Iâll stay with you.â
So Eliana lay down in Adrianâs bed and held him in her arms.
âIs there anything bothering my darling baby? Tell me please,â Eliana said in a sweet voice.
Adrian buried his head in Elianaâs chest, hesitating to tell her or not. Finally, he decided to confess what
he had done.
âMommy, Iâm sorry. What happened today was all my faultâ¦â
âHoney, why did you say that?â Eliana asked in surprise.
With a guilty look on his face, Adrian explained, âYes, it was all my fault. I was the one who secretly
contacted Mr. Bowman. I think the men who tried to kidnap us today were sent by him. Iâm sorry,
Mommy. I didnât think Mr. Bowman was such a bad person!â
Eliana was stunned at the mention of Jonathan.
She thought he was still abroad.
Did he come back?
Eliana was utterly shocked by what Adrian said. She couldnât believe that it was Jonathan who tried to
kidnap her and her children, let alone that it was Adrian who called him back.
Eliana said nothing for a long moment, lost in thought. Her long silence made Adrian feel more and
more depressed, and tears welled up in his eyes.
âMommy, did I get you in trouble?â Adrian asked in a sad voice.
Hearing her sonâs words, Eliana quickly came to her senses. She stroked the little boyâs head and
comforted him, âDonât worry, honey. I will solve it. Everything will be fine. You donât have to feel guilty.
Mr. Bowman is not a bad guy. He probably just wants to see you, but he didnât do it the right way.â
It took a long time for Eliana to calm Adrian down and let him fall asleep peacefully.
When Eliana finally left the childrenâs room, the anger she had been suppressing all along flared up,
and her face darkened instantly.
Jonathan had helped her a lot. She could never pay him back for all he had done for her and the
children. But how could he try to kidnap her kids?
While Eliana was lost in thoughts, her phone rang. She checked the caller ID and saw it was an
incoming call from a strange number.
After thinking for a while, Eliana answered the phone.
âHello?â
âElianaâ¦â
A deep and magnetic voice came from the other end of the phone, and Eliana almost immediately
recognized the person speaking.
âJonathan!â
âAbsolutely! Long time no see. How are you doing recently?â
Jonathanâs voice was mixed with smile.
Just by listening to this voice, Eliana could already see in her mind the beautiful and gentle face of the
man.
But when she thought about what he had done, it chilled her to the bone.
âJonathan, why did you try to kidnap my children?â Eliana asked curtly.
She wasnât in the mood to chat with him, so she cut to the chase.
âItâs been so long since weâve seen each other. Why are you so cold to me? I just want to see you. I
couldnât reach you since you even changed your phone number, so I came up with this idea.â
It was only then that Eliana remembered she had indeed changed her phone number to avoid being
called by Maurice.
She later on sent her new phone number to her close friends, except for Jonathan.
She just didnât want to tell him her new number.
âSo since you couldnât find me, you decided to use my children as leverage to make me come to you?â
âDonât be mad. Youâre so lovable. I hired Kimora, but she lied to me in order to help you in the end.â
Jonathanâs casual words made Elianaâs hair stand on end.
He had found Kimora!
âWhat did you do to Kimora?â Eliana asked almost in a roar.
âDonât worry. Kimoraâs precious grandson and granddaughter had a small accident and she went to
take care of them. Thereâs really nothing to worry about!â
Jonathanâs tone was extremely gentle, but Eliana sensed a strong threat in it.
She took a deep breath, trying to suppress her surging emotions. âJonathan, what on earth do you
want from me?â
Eliana had known Jonathan for many years, and she knew that he was way more terrifying than
Maurice.
The difference between Maurice and Jonathan was that, Maurice would never hurt her, let alone hurt
her children.
