Chapter 605
After hanging up the phone, Jonathan looked at Mauricecently and said, “You’ve heard it
directly from her. At least, now you know what she wants.”
Jonathan thought Maurice was such a fool. Not only that Maurice couldn’t take Eliana away, but he also
had to take care of her and another man’s children.
Maurice’s face darkened at once. But he tried his best to suppress the anger that surged in his heart.
He looked at Jonathan and said, “Jonathan, I’m warning you. Don’t try to y tricks.”
Jonathan smiled defiantly. “Rx. Don’t worry. I will give you a brand-new Eliana in the future.”
Maurice didn’t believe a word he said.
But now that Eliana was still in his hand, Maurice couldn’t fall out with him at the moment.
Maurice decided to be patient for the time being. He couldn’t be impulsive now. Besides, Adrian and
Aileen were still waiting for him in school. Eliana had entrusted them to him.
Aileen had nightmares, wake up cryingst night. And now, in kindergarten, Aileen couldn’t help crying
every time she thought of Eliana. She had cried so hard that her eyes were swollen now.
Maybe because he was a boy, Adrian was a bit better than her. He didn’t cry, but he had been listless
all day long.
During their recess, Ss noticed that something was wrong with Adrian and Aileen. He couldn’t help
asking, “Adrian, Aileen, what’s wrong with you?”
“Ss, our mommy is missing,” Aileen answered at once. Her eyes were full of tears, and she was not
as lively as before. “I have a bad feeling that Mommy is in danger.”
“Your mommy is missing? How can that be?”
Ss was also flustered. But when he saw that Aileen was about to cry, he immediately took out the
fruit candy from his backpack, opened the wrapper, and put it in front of her mouth.
“Aileen, don’t cry now. Here, have a candy first.”

Aileen opened her mouth, and Ss stuffed the candy in her mouth. She chewed it, and the sweet taste
made her feel much better. But she still wanted to cry.
“Ss, what if Mommy doesn’te back? Adrian and I won’t have Mommy anymore.”
As Ss listened to Aileen’s words, he was instantly reminded of some bad memories. And seeing her
panicking like this, he felt so terrible that he couldn’t help but speak his mind.
“Aileen, don’t be afraid, okay? You know what? When I was small, I went out with my dad and mom.
Then… We had a car ident. At that time, the scene was very chaotic. Our car was turned over, and I
was very scared. But when I was in a daze, I felt a warm embrace. It was my mom who hugged me,
and that was thest time I felt her hug…”
This was the first time that Ss talked about the car ident to others. He was so sad that he couldn’t
calm down.
Aileen got so interested in his story that she stopped crying.
Adrian also listened to the whole story silently. When Ss finished speaking, he couldn’t help sighing,
“Ss, you are so brave.”
Ss smiled bitterly. “I’m not as brave as you think. I remember that after the ident, my uncle was
the first one toe to me. He said that he would handle everything, and I trusted him.”
At this time, Adrian remembered what Maurice had promised him. Maurice said he would bring Eliana
back safely.
But the question was, could he really trust a bad guy’s promise?
But the question was, could he really trust a bad guy’s promise?
When he saw the firmness on Ss’ face, he was a little shaken.
Maybe he could try to trust him even once.
Time passed quickly, and school time was about to end.
Maurice, as a newbie in being a father, stood at the gate of the kindergarten.
Since Eliana was not here, he had to shoulder the responsibility of picking up the children. But he didn’t
mind. In fact, he was more than willing to do it.
As soon as he saw the three childrene out, he immediately walked up to them.
“Mr. Moran!”
“Uncle Maurice!”
Aileen and Ss immediately ran to him. Adrian was left behind, still hesitating.
Finally, he made up his mind. He walked over to them, but he stopped a few steps away from Maurice.
Maurice took Aileen’s hand naturally and touched Ss’ head.
“How was your day?”
“Good. I just miss Mommy,” Aileen replied, still a little depressed.
Maurice remained silent. He didn’t know what to say, so he could only hold Aileen’s hand tofort
her.
At this moment, he noticed Adrian standing behind them, looking awkward. Adrian’s round eyes were
fixed on his hand that was holding Aileen’s.
Maurice thought this little boy was quite stubborn.
He had no choice but to take a step forward and gently hold Adrian’s hand too.
He then said, “Your mommy has entrusted you to me. I’ll take you home today.”
