The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 199

Maurice paused for a few moments before turning around and nodding to Rosalie.

“Thank you for reminding me, Rosalie. I’ll do what I think is best.”

Maurice then left the restaurant.

Rosalie smiled contentedly as she watched Maurice walk away.

“Rosalie, just let him be. He is very stubborn. Now that he has found someone who can subdue him, I want to see him suffer.” Wyatt grinned evilly.

Rosalie’s face darkened instantly. She smacked Wyatt. “Maurice was right. You’re such a jerk. How dare you fool around in broad daylight?” she scolded.

“Well, Rosalie, I promise I won’t do it again,” Wyatt begged, rubbing the spot where Rosalie smacked him.

Rosalie sighed. “I know you well. I heard that you met Nicole not long ago and even walked the red carpet with her. What is going on? Have you reconciled?”

Wyatt’s smile froze all of a sudden. “Rosalie, don’t bring up that woman again. I don’t have anything to do with her anymore,” he said flatly.

Rosalie shook her head helplessly when she saw Wyatt’s conflicted expression.

He seemed to be another person whenever Nicole was mentioned, but he insisted that he didn’t care about Nicole.

Meanwhile, Eliana returned home quickly. Nana and the twins were home at the time.

“Look what I’ve brought you, my babies!” Eliana waved to her children while holding the cake in her other hand.

“Cake!” Aileen and Adrian exclaimed in unison.

Aileen ran over and hugged Eliana’s thigh, staring at the cake she was holding.

“Take the cake to the table, and let’s eat together,” Eliana said, touching Aileen’s head.

Aileen placed the cake on the tea table. They ate it happily together.

“Where did you buy this cake, Eliana? It’s delicious,” Nana commented before taking another spoonful of cake.

“It’s a gift from work.”

Nana was taken aback. “Did you go to work? What did you do?”

“I work as a waitress in a restaurant. Our expenses are increasing, so I can’t just stay at home,” Eliana answered casually.

Nana suddenly felt that the cake in her hand was no longer delicious.

She wanted to cry at the thought of her best friend working as a waitress while she was at home eating and drinking for free.

She silently put the cake down, feeling dejected.

Eliana immediately noticed that Nana suddenly stopped eating with a straight face.

“Nana, what’s wrong?”

“Eliana, do you think I’m useless?”

“Why are you asking that?” Eliana was confused.

“I’ve been staying at your house since I returned from abroad, with free food and lodging, but I haven’t given you anything, not even a cent.” All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Nana was becoming increasingly embarrassed as she pondered more about it.

She had escaped from a wedding. Thus, her parents had frozen all her cards in order for her to just give in. Her savings had been exhausted, and she couldn’t even afford the fuel for her luxury car.

Eliana sighed. She knew Nana was having a hard time. But she would never ask. Nana was a strong woman and she knew that she would never give up.

“You don’t need to worry about those things,” she said, taking Nana’s hand in hers. “Everyone has their own struggles, but friends share weal and woe. Besides, you go out every day to look for our dog.”

The puppy then barked at the right time. “Woof, woof…”

“Even the puppy thinks my words make sense,” Eliana said with a smile, pointing to the puppy.

When she heard the adults discussing the puppy, Aileen looked up at Eliana and asked, “Mommy, can you not send Foodie away after we find Bowling?”

Foodie was the name of the new puppy.

Looking at her daughter’s pleading eyes, Eliana couldn’t refuse as much as she wanted to. Besides, Foodie had been with them for quite a while now and they had grown fond of each other.

It seemed that they would be keeping another dog.

Eliana suddenly felt very pressured.

Nana saw Eliana’s reaction and became even more determined.

She wanted to stand on her own feet. She had to work.

She was no longer a wealthy lady from now on. She aspired to be a respectable employee.
