Chapter 455

“Yes, Mommy. It’s true. And that handsome old man is Silas’ great-grandfather.”

Aileen was a little agitated. She was afraid that Eliana would not believe her, so she couldn’t help tellingthe truth.

“Silas’ great-grandfather?”

Eliana was shocked. If what Aileen said was true, then the old man her children met was Earle,Maurice’s fierce grandfather.

Every time she remembered that scene when Earle raised his cane and hit Maurice, she still feltterrified until now.

Eliana almost couldn’t believe that Aileen and Adrian, two delicate children, had actually stayed withsuch an irascible old man the entire evening.

Thinking of this, she immediately panicked. She held Adrian’s and Aileen’s hands and checked themcarefully.

“Let me see. Are you hurt somewhere? Did that old man do anything to the two of you?”

Aileen and Adrian looked at each other, wondering why Eliana was so nervous all of a sudden.

Adrian shook his head. “No, Mommy. That old man did nothing to us.”

“Yes,” Aileen concurred. “He treated us very well.”

Judging from the children’s words, they liked Earle very much. Eliana couldn’t help but sigh.

Earle was very fierce to Maurice, but he was very good to Aileen and Adrian, even though he didn’tknow that these two children were his great-grandchildren.

“Mommy, do you think Silas is seriously ill? Please allow me to go to school tomorrow. I want to seehim.”

As she spoke, Aileen held Eliana’s hand and acted like a spoiled child.

At this moment, Eliana already understood why Silas hadn’t contacted her in time that day.

Silas really cared about his family very much. He must have panicked when Earle suddenly had a heartattack.

That was to say, she went too far when she treated him so sternly that night.

Now that she had figured out everything, Eliana felt even guiltier. She took Aileen’s and Adrian’s handsand said apologetically, “Kids, it was my fault the night before. I lost my temper at you before knowingthe truth.”

Aileen reminded her in a childish voice, “Mommy, you should not apologize to us but to Silas.”

These words instantly made Eliana’s face turn red in embarrassment.

She was a grown-up. But sometimes, Aileen was more sensible than her.

So she solemnly promised, “Don’t worry, kids. I will replace an opportunity to apologize to Silas.”

Eliana couldn’t help but sigh.

Apologizing was easy and simple. But for her, it would be difficult this time.

If Silas was someone else’s child, she would not hesitate. But unfortunately… He was related toMaurice.

Meeting with Silas meant she had to tangle with Maurice. The relationship between them had alreadybeen too complicated to handle.

But since Eliana made a promise to her children, she would replace a way to do it.

Eliana coaxed the two children to sleep and decided to sleep in their bedroom.

The next day, she got up early and made breakfast. After eating, she prepared to personally send thechildren to school.

But before they could go out, the doorbell rang.

She wondered who would visit them so early in the morning.

Eliana walked to the door and looked through the peephole. And she was shocked by what she saw.

Three people stood in front of the door. And when she looked at their faces, she found that they wereEarle, Silas, and Earle’s assistant.

Wonders never ceased.

Why did these people come to her door together?

Eliana’s mind was a mess. She was so flustered that she didn’t know what to do.

“Hello? Is anybody there?” Earle’s assistant knocked on the door and said, “We are Silas’ family. It’s anabrupt visit today.”

Eliana was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof. Now that they were outside the door, she couldn’t runaway even if she wanted to.

The knock on the door continued, and even Nana walked out of her bedroom this time.

“Eliana, why are you just standing there? Why don’t you open the door? Who’s outside?”

Nana didn’t know what was going on at the moment, so she stepped forward and was about to openthe door.

But Eliana grabbed her back.

“Damn! I’m done.”

“What’s done?”

“He’s here.”

“Who’s here?”

“Maurice’s grandfather.”

“What? Maurice’s grandfather?”

Eliana and Nana asked and answered each other. One of them looked desperate, and the other wasconfused.

Nana stepped forward and looked at the peephole. Then she saw the three people standing outside.She pointed at the door and asked, “That old man who looks very imposing outside is Maurice’sgrandfather?”

Eliana nodded frantically. “Yes, Nana. What should we do now?”

“Eliana, don’t panic. Let me think.” Nana raised her hand and touched her chin, thinking seriously for awhile. Then she clapped her hands and seemed to know what to do.

“You are going to meet your future grandfather-in-law now, right?”
