As he watched the endearing interaction between Adrian and Maurice, Silas suddenly felt a little unhappy, and he then realized he was jealous.

These two disliked each other before, didn’t they?

So why was his uncle being so nice to Adrian now? Maurice had never been so caring towards him before. It was strange and uncomfortable to watch.

Maurice didn’t notice his nephew’s jealousy. Now that he knew he was the children’s father, he was immersed in all of the feelings that went along with fatherhood.

He took the kids back to Eliana’s home, and arranged for Silas to stay in his apartment downstairs.

“Silas, you can stay here and go to school with the twins in the morning,” Maurice said. “Would you like that?”

Of course, Silas had no objection to this plan. He was more than willing to live closer to his good friends who he adored.

At dinner time, Maurice took Silas to go upstairs and sat together with Adrian and Aileen to eat.

Lena made dinner for everyone. The two kids were used to her cooking, and Maurice wanted them to feel as comfortable as they could while their mother was away.

At the dinner table, Maurice couldn’t help fixing his eyes on the twins. He carefully observed which foods they liked and which foods they didn’t. He wanted to know everything about them, from the biggest detail to the smallest.

He had never experienced this feeling before.

Seeing that Aileen was having trouble cutting her steak, Maurice took the plate from her with no hesitation. He carefully helped her cut the steak into small pieces and then handed it back to her with a smile.

“Take your time eating. If you want more, I’ll ask Lena to cook more for you.”
