The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 569

When Eliana finished all she had to do for the day, she went to pick up the twins from kindergarten. She suddenly got a message from Nana.

The message read, “Eliana, you and the kids don’t have to stay up waiting for me tonight. I’ll be back home much later as I’m out on a date. Don’t miss me too much!”

She went on a date? Tonight? Who did she go out on the date with?

Could it be Corbin? When did they make up? So Nana had been pretending when she acted like she never wanted to talk to him again.

Eliana stood there, confused, with the phone still in her hand.

Aileen noticed that her mother now wore a confused expression, so she asked, “What’s the problem, Mommy?”

“Nothing. Nana sent a message to say she won’t be home early, tonight,” Eliana answered. Pulling herself from her thoughts about Nana’s date, she touched Aileen on the head.

“What happened?” Aileen considered for a while and came to a conclusion. “Mommy, is Nana in love?” she asked.

Eliana didn’t know the situation of things between Nana and Corbin, so at Aileen’s question, she smiled without giving a response. She didn’t know what to say.

“Every time Nana falls in love, she stops caring about us,” Adrian complained with a roll of his eyes.

Aileen, unhappy, with lips pouted and hands on her hips, countered, “Adrian, why would you say that? Do you want Nana to play with us all the time and not get herself a boyfriend? That is a selfish thought.”

“That’s not what I meant. She can go ahead and have a boyfriend!” Adrian’s cheeks turned pink as his voice was tinged with guilt.

Eliana thought it interesting that the children would quarrel over Nana’s love life.

“Adrian, you like spending time with Nana even though both of you argue all the time, right?” Eliana asked Adrian jokingly, pinching his chubby cheeks playfully.

Eliana had said the truth. The proud Adrian felt deeply embarrassed. He argued, “No. I’m a big boy. I don’t need anyone’s company!”

“Alright, alright, I won’t say that anymore.” Eliana laughed at her son’s stubbornness.

The twins played in the living room with the dog after they had dinner. Just then, there was a loud noise from downstairs. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Aileen was frightened by the noise so she jumped on Adrian and held on to him tightly. “Adrian, what was that noise? Was the noise made by monsters?”

Adrian listened again, frowning. He looked down at the floor and tried to calm Aileen. “It’s nothing to worry about. There are no monsters anywhere in the world. I’m sure the sound is coming from downstairs, and it started yesterday.”

Eliana who was washing dishes poked her head from the kitchen door and explained, “Don’t be afraid, honey. The noise probably is from the neighbor downstairs, who is moving in. So we’ll be getting a new neighbor.”

“A new neighbor? That’s great!” Aileen who loved to socialize shouted excitedly. She was always happy when she was surrounded by many people.

On the other hand, Eliana didn’t like the idea. There were so many things to put into consideration. She had been informed that the apartment downstairs had been vacant for a long time, but now it was about to be occupied. Her kids could sometimes be noisy and this could result in constant quarrels if the new neighbor was not understanding.

Eliana thought to go have a conversation about this with the new neighbor now. She had to go with a gift though, so she wouldn’t appear at the door empty-handed.

As Eliana decided, an idea popped into her mind. She went back into the kitchen and baked an apple pie.

She thought to let someone try it first, just to make sure it was good enough, so she called the twins into the kitchen.

The twins gladly took the apple pie from her and put it in their mouths simultaneously.

“What do you think? Does it taste good?” she asked, looking at them expectantly.

The twins looked at each other and remained expressionless.

“Actually, Mommy…” Wearing a frown, Adrian was prepared to tell Eliana as it was, but Aileen thought otherwise. So she gave him a kick under the table and winked at him, indicated that he shouldn’t tell their mother the truth. She didn’t want their mother to feel bad and begin to question her cooking skills!
