Chapter 1337 Uncle Davin Is A Liar
Upon seeing Davin gritting his teeth, Maya nodded in satisfaction. She then turned to look at the two children. “Zayden, go ask your dad. What did I look like when I was younger? Was I like what he said, a fat pig that only loved to eat?”
Davin glanced at her before putting on an extremely genuine look and lying, “No, Maya never allowed herself to overeat when she was young. Look at how in shape she is now. Therefore, you can imagine how self-disciplined she was as a child. She wasn’t a glutton but a slim and pretty fairy instead.”
Baffled, Zayden and Joy looked at each other. Then, they directed their gazes at Davin simultaneously. Scratching his head, the boy queried with an innocent look on his face, “Daddy, that’s not what you usually say.”
“I was merely joking with you before. Now, I’m very serious!”
Still feeling bewildered, the two children looked at one another again.
Zayden then asked, “Joy, is Daddy telling the truth?”
Joy chuckled as she eyed Davin. “Uncle Davin is a liar regardless.”
“Why?”
“If what he used to say was not the truth, that means he lied and is a liar. And if what he’s saying now is untrue, he still lied. Thus, no matter what, he’s still a liar.”
Davin scratched his nose awkwardly upon hearing her explanation. It seems like I can never get away with being a liar.
“All right. Let’s stop dwelling on this. Why are you two the only ones here? Where’s Luke?”
“Luke is drawing in his room. Uncle Davin, why are you looking for him?” Joy blinked her big, round eyes as she questioned.
Davin paused and pondered for a moment. “Nothing. Has his dad come to fetch him?”
“No.”
That unexpected answer took him by surprise. On second thought, he figured it made sense since Levant was stubborn and thus would not compromise easily.
“Joy, if Mr. Levant comes personally to pick up Luke, don’t let Luke go with him. However, if he comes together with Luke’s mother, you can let him go back with them.”
Puzzled by his request, Joy stared at him blankly. Even so, she still nodded and agreed, “Uncle Davin, I’ll do so.”
“Good. I trust that you’ll handle it well!”
At that moment, Maya glanced at the time and asked, “Uncle Davin, have you eaten dinner? I made some of my signature dishes. Do you want to eat with us?”
After thinking for a moment, Davin agreed readily, “Sure. I haven’t had your dishes for a long time.”
Meanwhile, Levant was sitting in his room. Feeling bored, he took a sip of his tea while musing to himself, “Does that little brat love Imperial Garden that much? He hasn’t called me once after so many days. Doesn’t he miss his daddy at all?”
After whining, he reached out to grab his phone. Before he made the call, he stopped for a while and thought, If Luke doesn’t miss me at all, why should I keep thinking about him? Moreover, that little brat won’t be mistreated at Evan’s place. Forget it! I’m not going to call him. Let Evan take care of my son!
Although he was grumbling out of annoyance, he could not stop himself from wondering what Luke was doing at that moment.
Soon, Tiffany came back from the company. Upon seeing Levant, she immediately queried, “Luke isn’t home yet?”
“Not yet!”
That stunned her, and she stood still for a while before turning to head back to her room.
Suddenly, Levant yelled at her from behind, “If you miss him, you can give him a call.”
Tiffany abruptly halted in her tracks and shot him a breezy smile. “No need. I feel at ease, knowing that he’s staying at Imperial Garden. Mrs. Seet will take good care of him.”
Levant furrowed his brows. She and Luke have never separated from one another. Does she truly not miss him?
“If you really miss him, you can give him a call and ask about his condition right now.”
Tiffany contemplated for a moment. “No need,” came her reply before she strode to her room without looking back.
Levant was rendered speechless by her reply.
Sulking, he, too, did not contact Luke since even Tiffany refused to make the call. He heaved a sigh inwardly and decided to wait until Luke gave in. I bet that little brat won’t stay at Imperial Garden for long. It’s not like he can stay there forever. I’ll settle the score with him once he returns.
