Chapter 598

aurice was lost in his thoughts, but Corbin’s words brought him back to reality.

“Boss, that’s the good news for you. However, I also have some bad news. Promise me you’ll stay calmwhen you hear it. I was informed about Eliana’s disappearance today, and I heard it was after she metwith Jonathan.”

“What did you say?”

Maurice’s expression hardened when he heard the news.

“Nana was the one who told me. She called me to say Eliana hasn’t come home since she met up withJonathan. Boss, do you think…”

Corbin didn’t dare to continue his sentence.

“We need to go!”

How could Maurice keep a level head after hearing this news?

They ran to the parking lot and drove to Eliana’s place.

By the time they arrived, the twins were already asleep. Nana was alone in the living room, waitinganxiously.

All of a sudden, the doorbell rang. Nana was pacing back and forth in the living room, and the soundstartled her. Without hesitation, she opened the door, thinking Eliana finally came home.

“Eliana… Wait a minute. Maurice?”

When she opened the door, Maurice’s stormy eyes greeted her. The look on his face made her tremblewith fear.

One look in his eyes and you could tell. He wasn’t happy at this moment.

Nana’s first instinct was to slam the door shut in his face, but she failed to stop Maurice from coming in.

He immediately pushed the door open and stormed inside.

“Where are my children?”

Nana was alarmed by his words and exclaimed, “What are you saying? Your children? What are youdoing here? You act like this is your house! If you’re not careful, I’ll sue you for trespassing!”

Maurice resembled a volcano that was about to erupt. Corbin gently guided Nana away from Mauricebecause he was worried she would trigger him.

“Nana, stop fooling around. We know that the twins’ father is Mr. Moran.”

He handed the paternity test report to Nana as proof.

Now that there was evidence, Nana couldn’t deny the truth even if she wanted to. The only thing shecould say was, “It’s getting late. You shouldn’t go upstairs and wake the children. I had a hard timeputting them to sleep. You can’t scare them!”

At that moment, Nana was more concerned about Eliana’s safety than the children.

“Maurice, I think you’re aware Eliana met up with Jonathan today. I can assure you that she wouldnever leave the children behind, even if she met with Jonathan. There’s no need to question whethershe would run away with him.”

Nana wanted to continue defending Eliana, but the furious expression on Maurice’s face halted her.

Corbin grabbed Nana’s arm and warned, “Nana, please stop.”

Couldn’t she tell that Maurice was on the verge of snapping?

Maurice considered her words for a moment.

Even without Nana’s explanation, he knew Eliana wouldn’t do such a thing.

The children were the most important thing to her, and she wouldn’t leave them no matter whathappened.

He came over to protect the twins in case something unexpected happened to them.

Before he entered the house, he had observed the surroundings on purpose but didn’t replace anythingunusual.

It meant there wasn’t a kidnapper who planned to take Eliana away.

There was only one possibility left to consider. Perhaps something unexpected happened to Eliana,which prevented her from coming home.

The most likely situation would have been…

“Corbin!” Maurice suddenly ordered, “Check all the hospitals! I want you to check the nearest hospitalsone by one!”

Understanding dawned on Corbin, and he immediately left the house.

When Corbin left, only Nana and Maurice remained in the living room.

It was late into the night. The thought of staying with Maurice under one roof made Nana nervous.

“Mr. Moran, why don’t you go home and get some rest? I’ll inform you immediately when I hearanything.”

“There’s no need for that. I’ll wait until the children wake up.”

He sat down on the sofa and leaned bank. After that, he closed his eyes to get some rest.

Since he found out the children were his, he’d been restless. As soon as he allowed himself to relax,fatigue washed over him.

It had only been two hours, but he felt like so much had happened.

Nana didn’t dare to oppose him.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t sleep while he was there.

“I can wait with you.” Nana sighed wearily and sat down on the sofa. She chose the spot farthest awayfrom him.

For a moment, the atmosphere inside the living room was somber.

All of a sudden, Maurice broke the silence. “Nana, do you know why Eliana kept the truth about thechildren from me?”
