The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 575



Chapter 575

“Don’t! Just go! You’re taking the garbage in your hand.”

As she spoke, Eliana pushed Maurice away. Her face flushed.

She was not as shameless as he was. How dare she be so intimate with him in front of the two children!

Maurice knew that she was a sensitive person, so he didn’t insist. He wouldn’t force her to do it. When he said those words to Eliana, he was like a husband who had to leave home for work in the morning.

“Then I’ll go ahead now.”

Eliana was stunned. Suddenly, she felt like they were really a family.

A sudden impulse surged in her heart. She blurted out, “Then you… You come back early, so we can have dinner together. I’ll cook something. You can also bring Silas along.”

Maurice was in a trance for a moment. He didn’t expect this kind of response from Eliana, so he was a little surprised.

No one had waited for him at home for many years. And the Moran family would only have dinner together on special occasions or if something important happened.

His childhood experiences had cast a pall over him. And he thought he would never be able to build his own family all his life.

But now, there were Eliana and the twins in front of him, looking at him. They had breakfast together just now. And later, they would wait for him to come back to have dinner together.

It was as if he really had a family. He had a wife and children he could spend time with.

After leaving Eliana’s house, Maurice went straight to the Moran family’s house.

Earle, Nancy, Harriet, and Harriet’s mother Bonita were already in the living room, waiting for his arrival.

As soon as he entered the door, his eyes fell on Bonita, the legendary ruler of Stone Group.

She and Harriet sat next to each other, so Maurice couldn’t help comparing them. Their appearance and temperament were surprisingly similar.

Bonita was a successful businesswoman as famous as Rosamond. She was not young anymore, but time did not leave too many traces on her. Instead, the years had added charm to her beautiful face.

It was just that she and Rosamond were the total opposite. Rosamond had overflowing aggressiveness and arrogance while she was more like a well-off and elegant lady. But despite Bonita’s charming face, there was a hint of cunning in her seemingly gentle eyes.

Nancy was the first to greet Maurice. She waved at him happily and said, “Maurice, you’re here. Come sit here.”

Bonita looked at Maurice up and down as if scrutinizing him. Then a satisfied smile crept across his face.

“Maurice, you are indeed a handsome man. No wonder Harriet is fascinated by you.”

Upon hearing this, Harriet grabbed Bonita’s hand at once. “Mom!”

She was so shy that she lowered her head and just looked down for a while.

“What is there to be shy about?” Bonita asked Harriet.

Then she turned to Nancy, smiled, and said, “Mrs. Moran, I’m afraid my daughter has been in love with Maurice for a long time. So since the Stone family and the Moran family know each other well, and we have a business partnership now, why don’t we discuss the engagement early? Maybe they will be able to give us a grandchild next year,”

Bonita sounded warmly. From the tone of her voice, it was as if she was already eager to marry Harriet to Maurice.

“Well, let’s just leave this matter to them. Let them make their own decisions. We are old and can’t interfere anymore.”

It was very obvious that Nancy’s attitude was perfunctory. She couldn’t refuse Bonita directly, so she could only fob Bonita off.

When Maurice heard Nancy and Bonita’s conversation, he immediately refused without hesitation.

“Mrs. Stone, please don’t bother about it. It’s absolutely impossible for me and your daughter to be together.”

As soon as he said this, everyone’s expression drastically changed.

Earle’s face darkened. He was the first to react. He snapped, “You brat! What nonsense are you talking about? Have you lost even your basic manners now? How could you say such things in front of many people?”

Earle reprimanded Maurice in public, but his attitude was not as tough as before. He was just dissatisfied with Maurice’s direct refusal. He felt embarrassed for the Moran family.

Actually, he was also a little hesitant about letting Harriet marry into the Moran family. Some things that happened before had made him dissatisfied with her. So he was not one hundred percent sure that he

wanted her to be his granddaughter-in-law.

Maurice’s direct refusal was like a bolt of lightning that struck Harriet. She looked at him in disbelief, and her eyes were already red. It was as if she had suffered great grievance.

“Maurice, you know that I love you so much. How can you be so ruthless to me?” she said sadly.

Seeing her daughter being bullied, Bonita was also angry. She scolded, “Maurice, are you humiliating my daughter? She almost lost her life for you. How can you be so ungrateful?”

“Mrs. Stone, are you referring to Harriet’s allergic reaction to the flowers sent by Moran Group’s employees during the last press conference?”

Maurice had already rejected Harriet many times, but she was very persistent. This time, he wanted to stop her from acting and playing like she was always the innocent victim. It was time to put an end to all of this.

He didn’t intend to make the Stone family lose face in front of his family, but they seemed to ask for it. So there was no need for him to cover up for them anymore.

He turned around and ordered Corbin, “Show them.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Under everyone’s confused gazes, Corbin took out his mobile phone and showed the surveillance video of Harriet asking Lilian to change the flowers.
