Ch. 616..620: The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy Chapter 616-620

Chapter 616

Upon hearing this, Maurice’s line of defense had completely collapsed.

He could only stare at Eliana quietly.

Even though her face was tightly wrapped, he could still see her tearful bright eyes. Her gaze seemed to penetrate his heart.

“You little woman. I’ve finally found you…”

“Preston, I’ve been missing you,” Eliana said between sobs.

Maurice shuddered. He was at a loss for words for a while.

They hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and they obviously missed each other so much. They began to kiss passionately, regardless of the presence of another person and the danger that they would be discovered by Jonathan at any time.

It seemed that through this kiss, they could vent all the fear, longing, and worries that they had felt these days.

Eliana had been waiting for this day for so long. So now that Preston was holding and kissing her, she couldn’t extricate herself.

Leilani had already entered the room. But when she saw the scene, she immediately turned around so as not to disturb them.

The intense kiss finally ended. But Eliana was still caught up in the moment and couldn’t come back to her senses.

She wrapped her arms around Maurice’s neck, gasping for breath. Obviously, she was a little unfulfilled.

Looking at her greedy appearance, Maurice couldn’t help teasing her, “You have no conscience. You really like Preston more. Or maybe…”

He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “This is just what you like. Thrilling?”

“You jerk!”

Eliana suddenly came back to her senses. She pushed him away, her face flushed.

However, she couldn’t help smiling when she looked at the face that belonged to Preston.

She had thought of thousands of ways Maurice might take to save her. But it never occurred to her that he would disguise himself as Preston and sneak in with Rosamond.

Eliana knew very well that Maurice used to get really jealous of Preston.

When Maurice saw that her mood had become better, he touched her face pitifully and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

He then asked, “Does it still hurt?”

Eliana felt like she was suddenly struck by lightning.

How could she forget?

Perhaps she got so excited when she saw Maurice just now that she forgot her face was still covered with gauze.

She hadn’t dared to look in the mirror these days. She must be very ugly now.

Eliana was so embarrassed that she wanted to escape. However, Maurice pulled her back quickly.

At this moment, Maurice turned to the door, looked at Leilani, and asked, “Leilani, how did her face get injured? Have you found out?”

When she heard Maurice talking to her, Leilani turned around in a hurry. “Mr. Moran, according to Jonathan, Miss Pierce’s face was scratched by the broken glass during the car accident. Every time the doctor changes the gauze, he asks everyone else to leave the room. So, no one has actually seen Miss Pierce’s wounds.”

Leilani glanced at Eliana and continued, “Besides, we never dare to remove the gauze by ourselves because we’re afraid it might hurt Miss Pierce.”

After listening to Leilani’s explanation, Maurice pondered for a moment. Then he turned to Eliana and fixed his eyes on her face. “Let’s remove the gauze now.”

“No, I don’t want to!” Eliana reflexively covered her face with her hands. “If Jonathan is telling the truth, my face must be ugly.”

Maurice looked at Eliana helplessly and dotingly. He gently took her hand and said, “Don’t be afraid. I don’t care what you look like.”

“How can you not care?” Eliana pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction, “If I become ugly, you will be scared and run away.”

“No, I won’t. I swear.”

Under Maurice’s firm gaze, Eliana finally gave in.

He then helped her slowly remove the white gauze wrapped around her face.

During the entire process, Eliana was so nervous that her hands shook uncontrollably.

There was no woman who didn’t care about her appearance. What she was doing now was no different from gambling.

Maurice noticed her nervousness, so he stopped and comforted her, “Don’t be afraid. I’m here now. You’ll be fine. Just trust me, okay?”

His comforting words made Eliana slowly calm down.

Finally, the gauze was removed, revealing her delicate and beautiful face.

Her face was still flawless without a sin

Chapter 617

“Miss Pierce, your face! There’s nothing wrong with your face. It’s perfectly fine!” Leilani exclaimed with shock written all over her face.

Eliana’s face was still very beautiful. But since she had not been exposed to sunlight for a long time, it looked a little pale.

Maurice secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was exactly what he had expected.

“What? My face is fine?”

Eliana was still in disbelief. She couldn’t help reaching out and touching her face. The skin she touched was very smooth. There was no single scar. She rubbed it again and again, but she did not feel any pain.

Indeed, her face was totally fine.

Jonathan lied to her again.

Now that she knew the truth, Eliana was furious.

“Jonathan is a lunatic! How can he let me undergo surgery when my face is perfectly fine? What the hell is he trying to do?”

“I think I know the reason,” Maurice said. He took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Eliana.

She hastily took it and was shocked upon looking at it.

“What the hell! Who is this woman? Why does she look like me?”

Eliana was stunned for a moment. The young woman in the photo really looked like her. How could it be?

If she wasn’t sure that she was an only child, she would think that the woman in the photo was her long-lost sister.

“That woman was Jonathan’s wife,” Maurice explained calmly.

“What did you say? Are you saying that Jonathan had been married? But I’ve never seen her before. He never mentioned her to me either.”

Eliana was so shocked by Maurice’s words that she couldn’t react for a while. She couldn’t imagine that after living with Jonathan for five years, she didn’t know anything about his late wife.

Maurice, who was more vexed than her, said, “You never thought of investigating him. You just spent five years of your life with him without even knowing who he really is?”

Eliana lowered her head guiltily, not daring to look into his eyes.

It was her negligence. She didn’t think of it at all.

Seeing Eliana like this, Maurice was so angry that he gritted his teeth and continued to explain, “His wife was from the White family. Her name is Meg. She disappeared not long after she married Jonathan. Some said she had passed away.”

Jonathan’s late wife was from the White family?

The memory deep in Eliana’s mind suddenly popped out.

Her mother once told her that she was from the White family.

But for some unknown reason, Eliana’s mother seldom contacted the people from the White family. She seldom mentioned them, and every time she did, she seemed reluctant to talk about them.

Could it be that… There was a secret that Eliana didn’t know?

She was lost in thought.

But at this time, Jonathan, who had been waiting outside the door, became impatient.

He knocked on the door and asked, “Are you done with the examination? The operation will begin in no time.”

Upon hearing his voice, Eliana decided to temporarily forget about the White family and focus on the crisis in front of her.

“Maurice, what are we going to do now?”

Since Maurice got the photo of Jonathan’s late wife, he had already come up with an idea.

“Jonathan made me misunderstand before that he lost the love of his life because of me. So I want him to experience exactly the same.”

Eliana was stunned.

When did she become the love of Jonathan’s life?

She was about to retort when the photo in her hand made her realize something.

The love of Jonathan’s life should be Meg, his late wife.

Now she realized that he was only kind to her when they met five years ago because she looked like Meg. Maybe he saw Meg in her.

Eliana was lost in thought again.

She only looked like Meg at a glance. But if people looked carefully, they would see that they were not very much alike.

In the past five years, Jonathan had hinted to her many times that he wanted her to do some plastic surgeries. Now she knew why. He wanted her to look more like Meg.

And this time, he deliberately took the opportunity to use the car accident as the reason to change her face.

With all this realization, Eliana couldn’t help shivering all over.

She never knew that one’s love for another could be so crazy.

Since Jonathan couldn’t keep Meg, he wanted to keep someone who looked like her.

How crazy he was!

 

Chapter 618

Maurice understood that everything was shocking to Eliana. But he didn’t have time to wait for her to handle her shock. He quickly told her his plan.

Then he put her in a wheelchair and pushed her out of the room.

“I’ve checked her, except for the wounds on her face. Everything’s fine, but I don’t know with her face.”

At this moment, Maurice was Preston again.

“Can we start the surgery now?” Jonathan was already excited.

Maurice gave Rosamond a nod, hinting at something.

Rosamond understood at once. “Of course!”

Since Rosamond said so, Eliana was pushed into the operating room under everyone’s gaze. Maurice’s eyes had been fixed on her all the time. But the way he looked at her, he didn’t seem like a doctor looking at his patient.

Even Jonathan felt it was a little strange.

But he had no time to think about it now because his long-term dream was finally about to come true.

As long as the operation was successful, he would finally see the face he had been missing day and night for many years.

Jonathan was in a good mood. He turned to Rosamond and offered, “The operation will take some time. Let’s wait in the VIP room.”

“Thanks but no need. I’ll just wait here.” Rosamond categorically refused.

Jonathan didn’t insist. Instead, he waited with her.

However, not long after Eliana entered the operating room, an accident happened.

A nurse suddenly came out of the operating room and said in a panic, “Mr. Bowman, bad news! There was an accident.”

The smile on Jonathan’s face instantly disappeared. He rushed over and stared at the nurse.

“What are you talking about?”

The nurse was so frightened by the sullen look in his eyes that she didn’t dare to speak again.

At this moment, Rosamond pushed him away and said seriously, “What on earth happened?”

The nurse answered in a trembling voice, “When the surgery started, Miss Pierce’s heart suddenly stopped. The doctors are now trying to revive her. But we can’t ensure anything…”

Jonathan was so shocked that he froze for a while. When he came back to his senses, his first reaction was to shout in a fluster, “What about her face? Is her face okay?”

Upon hearing his words, Rosamond scolded him angrily, “Face? Her life is in danger, and you still care about her face?”

While they were arguing, two more specialized EMTs rushed into the operating room.

At this time, the operating room was a mess. The doctors and nurses kept going in and out.

Jonathan was not as leisurely as he was just now. He nervously paced back and forth outside the operating room, looking at the door from time to time.

Half an hour later, the light above the operating room door finally went out. And one of the doctors came out with heavy faces.

“Mr. Bowman, we did our best. But… We failed to save her…”

“That’s nonsense!” Jonathan snapped, interrupting the doctor. With a ferocious expression, he grabbed the doctor’s collar and roared, “Can someone die in cosmetic surgery? That’s unbelievable!”

The doctor was already flustered. He kept explaining to Jonathan that it was just an accident.

However, Jonathan was now in a frenzy and couldn’t listen to the doctor anymore. Instead, he punched the doctor angrily and rushed into the operating room.

In the operating room, all the doctors and nurses stood aside uneasily.

Eliana lay quietly in the operating table in the middle of the room, and her body was covered with a white cloth.

How could this be? Jonathan was still in disbelief.

Although Eliana’s dead body was already in front of him, he still couldn’t believe his eyes.

Eliana was just alive just about one hour ago. But now, she was lying in the cold operating table, lifeless.

“Mr. Bowman…” one of the doctors called out Jonathan’s name, wanting to say something.

But Jonathan roared, “Fuck off! All of you, get out of here!”

At this moment, he was like a desperate beast. Everyone in the operating room didn’t dare to make him angrier. They all ran out.

Jonathan’s body was trembling. He walked over and slowly lifted the white cloth. Then he saw Eliana’s bloodless face.

She still looked so beautiful. It was as if she was just sleeping.

But he knew that she would never open her eyes again…Just like his Meg.

Countless desperate memories flooded his mind. He was almost out of breath.

The next second, he felt a sharp pain on the back of his head. Then his vision went dark, and he lost consciousness.

“Done!”

Leilani stood behind Jonathan, holding a big stick in her hand and looking excited.

Chapter 619

Since Jonathan lost consciousness, he fell directly on Eliana.

Eliana suddenly opened her eyes when she felt the pressure on her body.

Of course, she was not dead.

She immediately reached out and pushed Jonathan away.

Leilani caught him in time, dragged him to the corner and let him lean against the wall.

Then she looked at his unconscious body, feeling very happy. When she thought of how she knocked him unconscious with a stick, she felt it was cool.

“This is what he deserves. I’ve long wanted to do this. He thinks too highly of himself. He only pays me half the money Mr. Moran pays me, but he always treats me like a slave. Now he has finally gotten his retribution.”

“Leilani, that’s enough. Our top priority now is to get out of here. Maurice is still waiting for us outside.”

According to their plan, Eliana and Leilani quickly changed into the nurse’s uniforms they had prepared. They pretended to be nurses and quietly slipped out of the operating room.

At this moment, the corridor outside the operating room was in chaos because of the “accident” just now. They took this opportunity to approach Rosamond.

“Miss Deleon, it’s me,” Eliana whispered.

She kept her head down, and she wore a mask, so Rosamond might not recognize her at once.

Rosamond glanced at Eliana and immediately realized that their plan was successful. So she adjusted her emotion and started to act as planned.

“Eliana is dead. This is all your fault. Jonathan must give me an explanation for what has happened today.”

After saying this, she turned around angrily and left with her men. Eliana and Leilani followed behind her.

Eliana immediately got in Rosamond’s car, where Maurice had been waiting for a long time. He had already taken off his mask.

The car started at once. Eliana only breathed a sigh of relief when the place that served as a cage that trapped her gradually disappeared from her sight.

Tears welled up in her eyes. Those days were like a nightmare for her.

She missed her children and Maurice so much. But she didn’t dare to see them because of her injured face.

Fortunately, Maurice and Rosamond were there to rescue her. And she found that her face was perfectly fine.

“Everything’s okay now,” Maurice comforted her, holding her hand tightly.

Eliana was so agitated that she couldn’t help hugging him.

“Maurice, we have really escaped.”

With a gentle expression, Maurice hugged her back and said, “Yes, we have escaped together.”

They felt so relieved that they hugged each other tightly, completely forgetting that Rosamond was also in the car.

When Rosamond saw that they were about to kiss, she couldn’t stand it anymore. She coughed a few times and reminded them, “Hey, you guys. I’m still here.”

Eliana seemed to have awoken from a dream. She quickly pushed Maurice away, her face flushed.

“Miss Deleon, thank you so much for today. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know if I could escape from that place.”

Rosamond waved her hand and said, “You’re welcome. Actually, I could have gotten you out of there on my own. But Maurice insisted on coming.”

Maurice didn’t get angry with her remarks. Instead, he reminded her, “Miss Deleon, since you helped us, Jonathan would definitely take revenge on you.”

“Yes, that’s right. What should we do then?”

Eliana was worried. Rosamond had already helped her a lot. She couldn’t implicate her more.

But Maurice already had the plan to deal with Jonathan. He suggested, “Miss Deleon, if Jonathan comes to you, just tell him that I set you up. Put all the blame on me. Stay out of trouble and avoid arguing with him.”

Eliana was a little surprised. She didn’t expect him to be so considerate.

Rosamond looked at Maurice with no sign of fear at all. “There is no need for that. I don’t care about offending him anyway.”

“But Miss Deleon…”

Eliana wanted to disagree, but Rosamond was firm.

“Eliana, you don’t have to feel guilty. After all, I have never liked Jonathan. And now that he kidnapped you and almost hurt you, I will never cooperate with him again.”

Eliana was shocked. She pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.

She seemed to owe more and more people favors.

Chapter 620

Rosamond sent Eliana and Maurice back to Eliana’s apartment safely. After making sure that Jonathan’s men didn’t follow them, she was about to leave.

But she turned to Maurice first and reminded him, “Remember to take care of Eliana from now on. If this kind of thing happens again…”

But before she could finish her words, he interrupted, “It won’t happen again. Miss Deleon, I owe you a favor this time.”

Rosamond looked at Eliana, then turned back to Maurice and joked, “There’s no need to return the favor. Just help me take care of Eliana.”

“Miss Deleon, I don’t need him to take care of me,” Eliana said stubbornly.

Maurice raised his eyebrows and wrapped his arm around her shoulders firmly.

“You don’t have to remind me of that, Miss Deleon. Of course, I will take good care of my woman.”

Rosamond smiled knowingly. “Alright then. I hope you will always remember that promise.”

Maurice smiled, and then took Eliana upstairs with his arm around her waist.

Rosamond watched their backs, feeling a little confused. She didn’t know if it was right to bring them back together.

The White family and the Moran family were mortal enemies. And as soon as these two families met, they would fight to the death.

Unfortunately, a twist of fate made Maurice, the successor of Moran family, and Eliana, Ingrid’s daughter, fall in love with each other. Was their love strong enough to transcend the feud between the

two families that had been going on for generations?

Romeo and Juliet’s love story had a tragic end.

Rosamond was worried that Maurice and Eliana would have the same fate. She couldn’t help looking up at the sky and praying, “Ingrid, have you seen it? If you have, please bless these two children.”

At this time, Eliana was already standing at the door of her apartment. But for some reason, she was a little hesitant.

She turned to Maurice and asked, “Maurice, how do I look now?”

Then she straightened her clothes and fixed her makeup. She didn’t want Adrian and Aileen to feel sad when they saw her.

“Don’t worry. You look as beautiful as ever.”

Maurice gave her an encouraging smile and opened the door for her.

Eliana took a deep breath, adjusted her expression, and put on a big smile. After stepping into the apartment, she shouted, “Aileen, Adrian, Nana, I’m back!”

Her voice made Adrian and Aileen rush out of the room at full speed.

“Mommy!” they cried in unison. Adrian rushed into Eliana’s arms. “Mommy, where have you been? I’m so worried about you.”

He choked with sobs. When he knew that Eliana had a car accident, he was almost scared to death.

“It’s alright now. I’m back.”

Eliana touched Adrian’s head lovingly, with mixed emotions flooding her heart.

“Eliana, finally, you’re back! I’m so happy to see you. If you only know how worried we have been.”

After saying this, Nana stepped forward and gave Eliana a big hug.

She knew more about the inside story than the twins, so she was naturally more worried.

In fact, she hadn’t eaten and slept well these days. And her nerves were on edge when Eliana was not home.

This time, Aileen walked to Eliana carefully and asked, “Mommy, is it really you?”

She stood timidly in front of Eliana, afraid that Eliana was just an illusion and would disappear if she touched her.

Eliana had only been away for a few days, but Aileen had already lost a lot of weight. Looking at her daughter’s thin face, she felt very sad.

She hugged Aileen and sobbed, “Yes, Aileen, it’s Mommy. I’m back.”

Everyone was crying, making the atmosphere inside the apartment very emotional.

No one paid attention to Maurice at all. They surrounded Eliana, and he had no place to stand, so he could only step back. Then he bumped into Corbin, who had just arrived.

And seeing the painful scene of them crying and hugging each other, Corbin couldn’t help sighing emotionally.

He said, “Mr. Moran, it’s so touching.”

Corbin was so emotional that he wanted to hug Maurice to express his joy.

But as soon as he approached Maurice, the latter dodged disgustedly.

“Stay away from me.”

Corbin’s tears were about to fall, but he immediately held them back.

He couldn’t help thinking that Maurice was so heartless.

Since they had been away from each other for a few days, the twins clung to Eliana that evening, not wanting to let her go.

But she had to coax them to bed, so she told them stories.

Eliana had a thrilling day. She must be so exhausted that while talking, she couldn’t help falling asleep too.

Maurice had been waiting for her in the living room. After a long time, she had not come out, so he went to the room to check on her. Then he saw her curling up in the small bed, sleeping soundly.

He couldn’t help smiling helplessly. He bent over and was about to pick her up.

But suddenly, a pair of small dark eyes opened.

Maurice met Adrian’s gaze.
