Chapter 521
After leaving home, Eliana moved into the house Rosamond had arranged for her.
It was a nice apartment. Although it was not as big as the Pierce family’s villa, it had nearly the same ambience as the house she lived in when she had just returned from abroad. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Rosamond arrived while Eliana was busy arranging her stuff.
Eliana abruptly stopped what she was doing and said, “You are here. Thank you for helping me this time.”
“Don’t mention it. Even though you are Ingrid’s daughter, you must pay the rent,” Rosamond replied.
Eliana was not upset at all after hearing that. Instead, she felt relieved.
“Of course I have to pay for the rent. How much is it?”
“How about 3, 000 dollars a month?”
Rosamond set a price based on the market price.
Eliana nodded and smiled. “Okay.”
In fact, she was well aware that 3, 000 dollars was not a huge amount of money for Rosamond, but she would pay her without hesitation.
Rosamond, unlike Maurice and Jonathan who had arranged everything for Eliana, chose to make her pay the rent.
Eliana was clearly pleased with Rosamond’s attitude. Rosamond had already given her a lot of help, and she no longer wanted to rely on her.
“By the way, there is a kindergarten nearby where you can enroll Aileen and Adrian. It is sponsored by the Deleon family, and they can go there to study as soon as possible,” Rosamond said after a few moments.
Knowing that her children would be able to attend school very soon, Eliana became excited in an instant. “Really? Thank you so much.”
“It’s nothing. Don’t mention it.”
Rosamond then began to discuss business.
“Eliana, do you remember what I told you about the Pierce family’s old factory the other time? Have you made up your mind?”
Eliana was taken aback when she heard that. “Are you proposing to sell the factory to me?”
“Yes, I never break my word.” Rosamond laughed and added, “You just need to tell me whether you want it or not.”
Eliana swallowed her saliva in excitement. She did not dare to consider it before because she didn’t have any money. Now that she had money, she really wanted to take the factory back.
“I want it! I want to take it back.”
After careful consideration, Eliana gave an affirmative response.
“It appears that I do not misjudge you,” Rosamond said, relieved. “There are some factory workers who had also worked for the Pierce family, but they were not dutiful. It gave me headaches over the years. But you are a member of the Pierce family. I think they will be more obedient to you.”
Looking into Rosamond’s eyes, Eliana thought for a moment before nodding. “Since you trust me, leave it up to me. I’ll give it a shot.”
After that talk, Rosamond played with the twins for a while before she left.
The two children, especially Aileen, sat in the unfamiliar living room, feeling dejected.
When Eliana could no longer bear seeing them down in spirits, she walked over, squatted down, and caressed their heads. “What’s the matter? Isn’t our new house good enough?”
Aileen and Adrian looked at each other before shaking their heads.
“Then why are you not happy?”
But Eliana already knew the possible reason.
“Mommy… Mommy, we had a good time with that handsome man in the amusement park. Why did we still move out?” Aileen asked, looking into her eyes.
Eliana was taken aback when she heard that. She was feeling a little down, too, but she couldn’t show it to her children. “Aileen, you are still young. You don’t understand everything. Sometimes separation is not for oneself, but for the good of everyone,” she said gently.
Aileen stared at Eliana with confusion. Apparently, she didn’t understand what her mother meant.
Eliana sighed. She knew that her children would not understand such complicated things.
But then Adrian said, “But Mommy, have you ever considered that leaving someone might be the most traumatic experience for that person?”
