Eliana’s body moved forward uncontrollably because of the sudden impact.
She was so terrified that her heart almost leaped out of her chest.
A pair of warm hands wrapped around her waist and pulled her back.
When Eliana came back to her senses, she was already in Maurice’s arms. He was holding her very
tightly.
“Are you okay?”
Maurice’s low, hoarse voice came from above her head. Eliana’s face immediately turned red, and she
jerked away from his arms.
“Ye…yeah” She shook her head, trying to calm her racing heart.
Corbin turned around and apologized, “I’m sorry, boss. It was my fault,”
“Be careful,” said Maurice, straightening his tie.
The car was restarted. The embarrassing stalemate was immediately broken after the minor mishap.
The atmosphere between Eliana and Maurice became intimate again.
“You have yet to respond to my question.” Eliana dared not to look directly into Maurice’s eyes.
Maurice took the phone and pretended to examine the photograph. “I know this ring, and I’m actually
looking for it,” he said calmly.
“Is it yours?” Eliana asked.
“It’s not mine. I just want to collect it.”
That was it?
Eliana still did not believe Maurice.
Would Hodge make such an effort to find something so insignificant? He had even lured her with the
truth in the past.
“Why are you so interested in this ring? Do you know where it is?”
Maurice stared at Eliana. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see right into her soul.
Eliana was agitated. “Of course not. How could I know something you don’t even know?”
Maurice looked so calm. He didn’t appear to be lying.
Eliana had to temporarily put her doubts aside.
Besides, it was easy to get information whenever necessary.
Eliana breathed a sigh of relief. She then realized something crucial.
Preston hadn’t lied to her because the ring was indeed not Maurice’s.
Damn it! She had wronged the gigolo again.
She wished she could just vanish when she remembered the messages she had sent.
Eliana was the type of person who couldn’t keep her emotions to herself. Her face could clearly show
what she felt. Maurice noticed her face changing in a matter of seconds, from being relaxed to
complacent to regretful.
Maurice was amused by the quick change in her lovely expressions.
After a few moments, Eliana asked to get out of the car because the kindergarten was already nearby.
“I have arrived at my destination. Thank you.”
Eliana got off the car. Maurice watched her walk away thoughtfully.
“Boss, it seems that Eliana is also heading to the kindergarten. Is she picking up the kids for Nana?”
Corbin guessed.
Kids?
Images of the twins flashed immediately in Maurice’s mind.
The little girl was lovely and cute, and the little boy was cool and handsome as well. He had no idea
why the images of the twins overshadowed Eliana’s face in his mind.
Maurice thought the twins resembled Eliana more than Nana.
Something flashed through Maurice’s mind out of nowhere.
“Are we still picking up Silas?”
Corbin’s voice broke into Maurice’s thoughts.
“No, have the bodyguards take him out first. Don’t let Eliana see you there,” Maurice ordered.
He didn’t want to reveal that Silas was his nephew just yet.
Meanwhile, Eliana thought that she had done a good job keeping the secret as she took a detour to
pick up the children at the kindergarten gate.
It was the end of school hours. As time passed, the adults who had been waiting with her had already
left with the other children they picked up, but Aileen and Adrian were nowhere to be found.
Eliana became uneasy. Was there something wrong?
All of a sudden, she saw the teacher of the twins.
The usually amiable teacher had a straight face and asked, “You are Aileen and Adrian’s mother, aren’t
you?”
Something must have happened.
“Yes. What happened to the kids?” Eliana asked anxiously.
“Nothing serious. It was just a minor squabble between the kids. Come with me,” the teacher said
seriously. “Aileen broke another child’s valuable item.”
Aileen?
Eliana was taken aback when she heard that. How could her obedient daughter make trouble?
