The Adorable Twins and Their CEO Daddy

Chapter 198

What happened? Why was there a commotion?

“Everyone, please calm down first,” Wyatt said helplessly with a facepalm.

But no one paid attention to him.

Wyatt was forced to take action. He suddenly shouted, “I’ll assume full responsibility for all of your expenses today.”

Everyone’s gaze was drawn to him all of a sudden.

“Please allow me to introduce myself. I’m the owner of Moonlight, and I apologize for the trouble my employees have caused you. Therefore, all of you, our dear guests, are free of charge as compensation.”

The crowd finally calmed down after hearing what Wyatt said, and the restaurant regained its order.

Wyatt walked up to Maurice and gave him a punch on the shoulder. “Are you here to cause me trouble today?”

Maurice looked at him coldly. “You always fool around, no wonder you can’t even manage a restaurant well.”

“Don’t mess with me,” Wyatt replied.

Maurice’s face twitched with sarcasm. “Wipe the lipstick stain on your shirt first,” he said, pointing to Wyatt’s shoulder. “Your father will not hand over the Todd family business to you because you do not take business seriously.”

“You’re not any better. Doesn’t Gerald always complain about you to your grandfather?”

The two men started bickering against each other.

Realizing that the two wouldn’t stop, Eliana silently looked at Rosalie for help.

“Ms. Gorden, are you not going to stop them?”

Rosalie smiled, a hint of nostalgia visible on her poker face. “Don’t worry. They are always like that. Maurice used to frequent the restaurant with his sister. His sister’s favorite restaurant was Moonlight.”

Rosalie’s smile gradually faded as she spoke. “He hadn’t come here much since his sister died.”

Maurice’s sister…

Eliana recalled Nancy telling her that Maurice’s parents died when he was young, and his sister died in a car accident a few years ago as well. His temperament had shifted dramatically since then.

“Ms. Gorden, what was Maurice like before? Was he really this cold and ruthless?” Eliana asked curiously.

Rosalie gave Eliana a meaningful look and replied, “When you almost got scalded by the hot soup just now, Maurice was very worried about you. He used to be that thoughtful and caring man. For the first time in many years, I saw that worried expression on his face once again.”

Eliana was taken aback. She recalled the expression on his face when Maurice looked at her a while ago. He was so focused on her. Her heart skipped a beat.

No way! She couldn’t fall in love with him.

She must think straightly. She shouldn’t forget that Maurice was a cold-blooded, ruthless and moody beast.

Eliana suppressed her surging emotions.

“Eliana, I still have to apologize to you for what happened today. I have misunderstood you.” Rosalie looked very guilty.

“It was not a big deal, Ms. Gorden. After all, I am really involved.”

It was Alissa who started the whole thing. Rosalie had done nothing wrong. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

“Eliana, you are a kind and good girl. I think there is something special about your relationship with Maurice,” Rosalie said, smiling amiably.

“Ms. Gorden, you may have misinterpreted… I really can’t explain my relationship with him in just one or two words. Anyway, I’m leaving now.”

The more Eliana spoke, the guiltier she felt. So she needed to get out of there quickly.

“Wait a second, take this cake.”

Rosalie then handed her a mouth-watering cake.

Eliana wanted to refuse, but Rosalie looked firm. Afraid that Maurice would come to her a while later, she hesitantly accepted the cake.

“Thank you.”

Eliana then slipped out of the back door with the cake in her hand.

Not long after, Maurice was already looking for her. He looked around and found Eliana nowhere.

“Rosalie, where is Eliana?”

“Eliana? She already left,” Rosalie replied in a teasing tone.

That woman fled without telling him again.

Maurice turned around and walked towards the door.

But before he could even reach the door, he heard Rosalie remarked, “Maurice, I’m very happy. Finally, someone can make you feel and act like how you used to be. But I’d like to give you some advice. You can’t pursue a girl in this way. You are too anxious. Eliana is a sweet young lady. You must take your time.”

Maurice came to a halt in an instant.

How he used to be…

He himself had even forgotten about it.
