Oh no!

“Aileen!” Silas suddenly cried out.

Aileen was interrupted before she could finish her words. She turned around and looked at Silas in confusion. “What is it, Silas? Is there anything wrong?”

Silas knew that his great-grandfather despised Eliana. If Earle found out that Aileen and Adrian were her children, he might begin to treat them wrongly.

“You should see the worried look on your face.” Earle frowned and continued, “Well, we’re all listening. If you have anything to say, just say it.”

It was a rare occurrence for Silas to hesitate with his words.

To protect his friends, he couldn’t tell the truth, but lying to his family was not an option. It was not the right thing to do.

Everyone in the ward looked at him expectantly at the same time, waiting for him to continue, but his mind went blank.

Fortunately for him, the doctor interrupted their conversation.

“Kids, I’m afraid it’s time to leave. You all should go now because Mr. Moran needs to rest to regain his strength.”

With everyone distracted, Silas was greatly relieved.

The three kids obediently filed out of Earle’s ward. When Silas checked his smartwatch, he saw several missed calls from Maurice.

What was going on this time? There might have been an emergency! Otherwise, Maurice wouldn’t have attempted to contact him repeatedly.

Fearing for the worse, he immediately dialed Maurice’s number.
