Chapter 384


    Having finished their dinner, Adrian and Aileen started getting ready for bed. Brushing their teeth was


    the first order of business.


    Eliana stood attentively in front of the children and instructed the twins to wash their teeth gently as all


    moms did.


    Maurice stood with his back against the door of the bathroom and casually observed them.


    Eliana was briefly hypnotized as she watched the four reflections in the mirror.

    The four of them… They resembled a four-person family.


    She was briefly sucked by the fantasy of a family reunion at the time.


    Unlike her, Maurice was unable to suppress his feeling of loss at seeing Eliana and the two children


    interacting so closely.


    There were three of them, and then there was him.


    Two wonderful and innocent children, as well as a beautiful and caringdy.


    But fate was already sealed!


    Maybe in another world.


    After washing her hands, Aileen could not help but yawn. As she wiped her eyes, she started to feel


    drowsy.


    Seeing her in such a state, Eliana was going to take her to bed.


    Aileen unexpectedly evaded Eliana’s grasp and extended her arms to Maurice at the entrance.


    “Daddy, please take me!”


    Eliana’s heart sank as she heard that. She was afraid Maurice would ept the title and nced up at


    him.


    However, Maurice’s treatment of Aileen changed this time. Out of nowhere, he turned down Aileen’s


    request with a stone-cold demeanor.


    “I am not your dad. You got it twisted.”


    The abrupt coldness of Maurice scared Aileen.


    Her drowsiness was extinguished. She had a little pout and herrge eyes were covered in a coating of


    mist, giving the impression that she was inconsble.


    Adrian’s rage had only grown.


    Even though he wasn’t their father, he couldn’t watch him upset his little sister.


    “You have the wrong person, Aileen. Of course, he isn’t our real dad. Compared to him, our dad is a


    thousand times better. ”


    As soon as he finished saying this, there was an instantaneous chill in the air.


    Maurice stood up straight and fixed a piercing stare on Adrian.


    In an instant after seeing this, Eliana grabbed Adrian’s hand and stepped in front of the child to shield


    him. “Adrian, stop it!” she exhorted him.


    Adrian unwillingly closed his mouth.


    However, dealing with Maurice was a challenge.


    He retrieved his cell phone and dialed Corbin’s number.


    “Come to Eliana’s chamber and remove the two children, Corbin.”


    “What? Miss Pierce’s chamber? Are the twins in herpany?”


    Corbin was about to go to sleep as hey in his bed. He was startled by a phone call from his boss.


    When Corbin heard his boss’s icy tone, he knew something bad had urred.


    “I’ll be there in a sh.”


    He hurriedly put on his coat and rushed out of the room.


    Eliana was hesitant on seeing Corbin, who hade so swiftly.


    “It’s toote now. Let me share a bedroom with the two children.”


    The fact that Corbin was a guy made her unsure whether he had the experience necessary to care for


    her children.


    “But it’s an order.”


    Maurice was adamant as ever.


    Eliana made apromise in the end. She had no hope of persuading him otherwise.


    She consoled the distraught Aileen by picking her up and telling her, “Aileen, it’s such a shame.


    Mommy can’t let you stay with me tonight. You may return with Corbin and sleep, all right?”


    Aileen nodded thoughtfully despite her reluctance.


    Then, she set Aileen down, took her hand, and passed it to Adrian’s hand. “Adrian, can you look out for


    your sister for Mommy? It won’t be long until Nana arrives.”


    “Mommy, don’t worry,” Adrian reassured his mother as he patted his chest. “Aileen is in excellent hands


    with me.”


    Eliana stroked him on the head with a smile of contentment.


    As soon as the twins had gone, Eliana’s expression immediately became gloomy. She questioned


    Maurice, “Why were you being so cruel to the children just now?”


    Maurice grunted, “It’s not like they are my children. How ought I to behave? How about you get


    pregnant for me? I’m going to send Jonathan’s kids off to some distant ce.”


    He seized her in his arms and proceeded to forcibly undress her.


    Eliana was enraged when she heard that Maurice would send the children away.


    She gave him a strong smack on the face.


    The smack startled Maurice.


    “Maurice, find somepassion in your fucking heart! Aileen and Adrian are my children. It’s


    impossible for anybody to take them from me!”


    Having been provoked all night, Maurice could hardly contain his rage at this point.


    He yanked her close to him and tore her blouse fiercely. And in an instant, the buttons on her blouse


    hade undone.


    Eliana battled with every ounce of her power, but Maurice held her arms with a single hand.


    As amb going to be killed, she couldn’t move her hands and was about to be devoured by the beast,


    Maurice.
