Ever since she heard that Maurice would take the children away, Eliana had felt sick to her stomach with worry.

Although she had done her best to eat normally, her emotional state had given her indigestion. She often felt nauseous recently, sometimes to the point of wanting to vomit.

But she didn’t mention it to anyone.

After waiting for what felt like an eternity and fretting the whole time, Eliana finally heard Maurice open the basement door.

The first question she asked was about her children.

“Where are Aileen and Adrian?”

Maurice felt upset by her question.

Was she really so afraid that he would hurt Jonathan’s children?

“See for yourself,” he replied.

He took out his phone and showed her a video.

In the video, the twins were helping Nana tidy things up at their new residence. Neither child showed any fear on their face.

It appeared that the kids were all right.

Eliana breathed a sigh of relief, and she felt her heart settle in her chest.

Suddenly, something occurred to her.

Where was Kimora? She was supposed to be taking care of the twins.

“Maurice, where is Kimora? She should be there, too.” she said.

“Don’t you know that she works for Jonathan? Did you think I would keep a ticking time bomb like her around?”

Eliana remained silent. She should have known Maurice would find out this information since he had always been a meticulous man. How could she have expected otherwise?
