Chapter 146


    Eliana struck the diamond with the ss, and the fake diamond shattered into pieces with a loud bang.


    Shocked, everyone looked at Erica.


    “Looks like you gave your daughter a fake diamond, and tried to ckmail me. I should let the police


    handle the matter.”


    With a meaningful smile, Eliana picked up the broken ne.


    “Oh my God! Did she really buy a fake?”


    “She was even forcing Aileen’s mother to pay for it. Maybe, she was looking to extort money from the


    later!”


    “She could have broken the ne herself, you know? How could she ask her own child to lie for


    her? That’s a sin.”


    Everyone present began to sneer at Erica with a disgusted look in their eyes.


    She felt really embarrassed.


    Eliana then proposed to call the police.


    Watching her take out her phone and proceed to dial a number, Erica became flustered and shouted,


    “Stop her! Take the ne back.”


    In just a second, her bodyguards rushed over.


    Ss’ bodyguards had frightened her before, so now, she brought her bodyguards with her every time


    she came to the kindergarten to pick up her child.


    Ss ordered in a childish voice, “Don’t let her seed!”


    The next second, his bodyguards rushed to Erica’s bodyguards and began to push them away.


    Seeing that, Erica snatched the ne and ran away with Ivy.


    Eliana became furious.


    ‘How dare she try to escape?’ She decided to catch her and teach her a lesson.


    Just when she was about to chase Erica, she felt a small hand grabbing her dress.


    Eliana looked down at Aileen, who seemed to be terrified.


    “Mommy…”


    It was only natural for a kid to be afraid in such a chaotic situation.


    ncing at the kids, Eliana figured that it was more important to watch over them than to chase after


    Erica.


    She helped Aileen sit down in a chair and stroked her hair lovingly.


    “It’s okay, baby. I’m right here. No one will dare to bully you while I am here, okay? Look, even Adrian


    and Ss are with you.”


    Sniffling, Aileen looked up and saw Adrian and Ss standing before her with a concerned look in their


    eyes.


    Although she felt a little relieved, she was still heartbroken by her friend’s betrayal.


    “Mommy, why did Ivy lie? Wasn’t she my friend?”


    Aileen looked at Eliana pitifully with tears in her eyes.


    Eliana sighed and asked, “Aileen, why do you think Ivy didn’t dare to tell the truth?”


    “Is it because her mother didn’t allow her to?”


    Aileen became afraid at the thought of Erica, and reminded herself that Eliana was the best mother in


    the world.


    With a warm smile, Eliana said, “You are so smart, Darling! Tell me, would you ever lie if I asked you


    to?”


    Puzzled by her mother’s question, Aileen thought for a while before she shook her head.


    “No, I won’t.”


    “That’s right. Children should not do everything that adults ask them to. They should learn to distinguish


    right from wrong on their own. I hope that you turn out to be a sensible and honest woman in the future,


    Kiddo. You did great today!”


    Hearing that, Adrianined, “Mommy, you are so corny! You’ve said that so many times already.”


    Eliana frowned, feeling speechless. She did not expect that her son would not agree with her.

    And she really did not know what to do with him.


    She quickly wiped away Aileen’s tears. “I know that I said it a lot, but it works.”


    Upon hearing thoseforting words, Aileen felt better.


    “Aileen, here you go.”


    Ss handed her the candy that his teacher had given him earlier. “A kid who lies is not a good person.


    Don’t talk to Ivy anymore.”


    Aileen had always consoled him by giving him a piece of candy and saying sweet words to him


    whenever he had been upset.


    Taking the candy from him, Aileen gave him a firm nod.


    She also did not want to be friends with a girl who lied to her.


    As she saw the kids getting along with each other, Eliana’s heart warmed up.


    “Mr. Gorman, it’s time for you to go home,” a bodyguard urged Ss.


    “Let’s go together.”


    Eliana touched Ss’ head, thinking that she should thank his bodyguards.


    “Okay.”


    Eliana and the kids walked out of the school, followed by the bodyguards. At the same time, Maurice’s


    car was parked not too far away from the school gate.


    “Oh, no! Mr. Moran, Mr. Gorman is walking out of the school with Miss Pierce and the twins!”


    The moment Corbin saw them, he immediately turned around and informed Maurice.


    Why were theying out together?


    Frowning, Maurice could note up with any ns, so he said, “Try to avoid them, then.”


    As the CEO of the Moran Group, he never thought that he would be hiding from people.


    Ss saw Maurice’s car and was about to wave to him. However, the car drove away at a high speed.


    Ss was puzzled. ‘What happened? I didn’t even get in the car!’
