The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Eliana, why do you have to be so cruel to me? What did I ever do to you?”

Jonathan took a deep breath to collect himself as he struggled to school his features into a gentle expression.

He had to be careful when he interacted with Eliana. Once he revealed his temper to her, she would be encouraged to stay vigilant and stay away from him.

“After everything you’ve done, you expect me to talk to you as if nothing happened?” Eliana shot back.

“Are you referring to the kidnapping?” Jonathan decided to show her a sliver of vulnerability. “I did all of that to see you. You’ve been hiding from me,” he explained.

Eliana kept quiet as she listened. He wasn’t wrong about that.

The truth was, she had been avoiding him.

However, the children were her top priority. He shouldn’t have endangered the children because of what happened between them.

“Eliana, I didn’t mean to hurt you or the kids. I was only afraid that our relationship had changed. I wanted to go after the man who took the children. But, I found out that Maurice was holding him,” Jonathan stated apologetically, sounding sincere.

Eliana observed him with a cautious expression on her face. She couldn’t decide if he was telling the truth or not.
