Chapter 669
The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy
âMaurice! How can you take the kids to skip class?â
Eliana was furious. She rushed to the door.
Outside the door, Maurice gave Aileen a quick glance.
Aileen immediately understood what he meant. She pouted like a spoiled child and said in an
aggrieved voice, âMommy, itâs not Mr. Moranâs fault. Iâm so tired today. I donât want to go to class.â
As Aileen spoke, she patted Adrianâs arm and gave him a sidelong glance.
Her glance meant that Adrian had better play along or she would fall out with him.
Adrian sighed helplessly.
âMommy, open the door. Iâm thirsty. I want some water,â the little boy said reluctantly.
âYes, Mommy! Open the door. I miss you!â Aileen shouted.
Elianaâs hand was already on the doorknob.
She was no fool. Of course she knew Maurice made the kids say all that.
But her kids were so cute! She couldnât wait to see them.
Finally, the door was opened.
When Eliana finally opened the door, she saw Maurice and the kids smiling innocently at her.
With an expressionless face, Eliana stared at Maurice and said coldly, âCome in.â
Then she took the kids inside, leaving Maurice standing in front of the door.
Maurice didnât feel embarrassed at all. He walked into the house casually and greeted Nana who was
sitting on the sofa.
Nana looked at him with a complicated expression. She seemed to want to say something but stopped
on a second thought.
Maurice didnât want Nana here, so he said seriously, âI gave Corbin a day off today. He is downstairs
now. Wonât you go to see him?â
Nana really wanted to hang out with her boyfriend. After all, they havenât seen each other for a long
time. However, she was a little hesitant because she was worried about her best friend.
Of course, her hesitation didnât go unnoticed by Maurice. He said seriously, âEliana and I are going to
get married. What are you worried about?â
Nana was silent. She thought for a while and finally came to the conclusion that he was right.
It was obvious that Maurice and Eliana had a quarrel today. But the two would definitely clear the air.
Nana had nothing to do here.
Subconsciously, Nana turned her head to look at Eliana. She wanted to know whether Eliana was okay
with her leaving.
Eliana gave her a nod.
It was only then that Nana was finally relieved.
âWell, Iâm leaving then. You guys have a talk.â
After saying that, Nana rushed downstairs to meet Corbin.
Now, there were only four people left in the apartment.
Eliana immediately went to the kitchen to prepare some fruits for the children. She had no intention of
talking to Maurice at all.
Maurice hesitated for a while and then followed her.
In the kitchen, Eliana was struggling to get a plate from the top shelf of the cupboard.
Suddenly, Maurice stretched out his hand from behind her and easily grabbed the plate.
Maurice was standing so close to Eliana that her back was leaning against his warm chest. Feeling
Mauriceâs warm body, Eliana stood there, unable to move.
âBe careful. Iâll help you in the kitchen from now on,â Maurice said softly as he handed the plate to
Eliana.
Eliana took the plate in a daze. The next second, Maurice wrapped his strong arms around her.
âIâm so sorry. Donât be angry, okay?â
Mauriceâs magnetic voice instantly turned Eliana on.
âEliana, I know I shouldnât have hidden those things from you. Iâm sorry. But I want you to know that I
have no intention of shielding Gerald. I will definitely punish him. Eliana, Iâm afraidâ¦â
Maurice wrapped his arms tighter around Elianaâs soft body and opened his heart to her. âIâm afraid that
if you know the truth, you will never want to be with me againâ¦â
When Maurice first held her, Eliana struggled hard. But after she heard what he said, her anger had
suddenly dissipated.
She knew Gerald and Maurice were different. She could tell who her real enemy was.
She was just angry that Maurice didnât tell her the truth.
At this moment, leaning against Mauriceâs chest, Eliana didnât want to worry about all those
shenanigans anymore.
She had long been looking forward to this happy life, but she didnât know if she would have a chance to
enjoy it.
It seemed that she had little time left.
She had frequent relapses recentlyâ¦
Noticing that Eliana had stopped struggling, Maurice breathed a sigh of relief and held her more tightly.
When he lowered his eyes, he saw a spot of blood on the corner of Elianaâs dress.
