Chapter 1279 Meeting Chris
Looking at his own son, Davin couldn’t help but think about Maya when she was still a child. My God! The more I observe him, the more he looks like Maya when she was younger. Is Zayden a glutton too? No, I won’t let him become a glutton! he thought.
Davin snatched the lollipop away from Zayden’s hands and popped it into his mouth.
Zayden’s eyes widened in surprise, and his face was filled with fury. He started wailing as he grew upset.
His cries attracted the attention of Sheila and Sophia, so they hurried over.
“What’s wrong, Zayden?”
“Yeah, Zayden. What happened?”
Zayden looked at Davin angrily and complained, “Daddy took my stuff!”
After knowing that Davin had taken away Zayden’s lollipop, Sheila pointed a feather duster at Davin and said, “How could you snatch the lollipop away from a child? Do you have any shame?”
“That’s right. Davin, how old are you? How can you just snatch sweets away from a child? Do you want me to punish you?”
“Zayden only cares about eating. I have to put a stop to that and change his behavior.”
“I’m eating an energy snack! It makes me smarter,” Zayden retorted angrily.
Davin crushed the lollipop in his mouth. What kind of energy snack is this? This is just a milk-flavored lollipop!
“My son, energy snacks won’t make you smart. I have better ways if you want to become smart.”
“What ways?” asked Zayden as he looked at Davin doubtfully.
“Spend more time with Juan and Kyle. You will be influenced by them and become smarter yourself.”
Joy, who was standing at the side, chimed in, “You can become smarter by playing with me too!”
“That’s right. Joy is clever too,” said Sophia.
Joy grinned cheerfully upon hearing that.
Davin turned to look at Joy. She may be smart, but she is still a girl. I wanted Zayden to be more manly like Kyle and Juan instead.
“Follow me, the three of you. We will be having a big meal at Levant Winery.” Let’s see if Levant and Tiffany need any support! I will put the three children to good use!
The three children were very excited when they heard about the big meal. Lining up, they followed Davin eagerly to the garage.
Meanwhile, at Imperial Garden, Nina had changed into a custom-made pink skirt and done her makeup. She then inspected herself in the mirror. After she was satisfied with her look, she put on her high heels and strode out of the bedroom.
When she arrived in the living room, she saw Maya talking to Nicole. After hearing some footsteps, both of them turned and looked at her.
Maya’s eyes lit up as she examined Nina from top to bottom. “Nina, you look so beautiful today. Are you going on a date?”
Nina smiled shyly and said, “Mommy, I won’t be home for dinner tonight.”
“Are you with someone?” asked Nicole gently.
Nina nodded. “Yeah. Chris is here for business, so he asked me out for dinner.”
Maya came to a realization. She is going to meet Chris. That’s why she’s all dressed up.
Nicole recalled the deal between Evan and Chris—If Chris were willing to wait for Nina until she was twenty years old, Evan would give them his blessing if they still wanted to be together then.
Ever since she returned from Nepenthe Valley, Nina had put all her efforts into work. She had managed to achieve good results at the beauty product press conference.
After these few years, Nicole thought Nina had become much more mature. Although there were still six months left before Nina turned twenty, Nicole thought it shouldn’t be a problem if Chris planned to take Nina out for dinner.
Hence, Nicole gave Nina her permission. “Go ahead. Ask the driver to bring you there.”
“That’s all right, Mommy. I can drive there myself.”
“All right, call me if you need anything,” Nicole reminded.
Nina nodded. Suddenly, she grew anxious. She proceeded to hug Nicole and asked, “Mommy, I have been waiting for this day all these years. Do you think he will still love me and want to be with me?”
