As soon as Maya saw Davin, she quickly jumped up in excitement. “Uncle Davin! Are you here to play with us?”
“Of course,” Davin smiled at the cute chubby Maya. “I’m sorry I didn’t bring any food with me this time. I’ll bring you a truck-load next time, how about that?”
Maya’s eyes shone as she nodded happily. Just like the boys, one of the girl was happy to see Davin while the other remained cold towards him.
Nicole guessed the reason Nina was reacting that way towards Davin was that the little girl wasn’t fond of Evan. The mother couldn’t help but wonder where did her daughter get her stubborn personality from.
Nicole thought about it but quickly changed the subject and asked about Kyle and Juan.
“Don’t worry. They’re probably enjoying the drumsticks I brought them. You should’ve seen how they took Sylphiette down together! It was such a treat to watch!”
“What happened?” Nicole asked worriedly.
After explaining the situation to Nicole, Davin stared at her puzzlingly. “I don’t get what Evan is trying to do with Sylphiette…”
The question worried Nicole as well as she was worried about the same thing too.
Evan showed no interest in Sylphiette before that. Other than the time where he punished her for kidnapping Juan, they never even crossed path with each other.
“You should ask Evan himself. Maybe he likes that kind of woman,” Nicole sighed.
Davin did not reply her as he did pop that question but Evan was reluctant to talk about it. If he were to question him further, Evan would’ve gotten angry.
“I just don’t get why Evan would fall for a woman that I wouldn’t even want to date! It’s just absurd!”
Davin could sense something off with the matter and decided to look into it. Seeing that Nicole wasn’t fond of the subject, he quickly talked about other stuffs.
When it was late in the night, Evan could not fall asleep and thought of checking up on the boys.
When he got to the room and saw the drumsticks on the table, he frowned.
Two of the drumsticks were chewed down to the bone, while the other two remained untouched.
The father could not believe how stubborn Kyle was and realized that he needed another way to punish the kid instead of taking away his food.
After making sure the boys were covered in blankets, Evan was about to go back to his room when he saw a person acting suspiciously outside the living room.
What is she doing over there?
Evan sneaked into a corner, hid under the shadow, and stared at the woman outside the door.
Nicole slowly pushed the door open and walked into the living room before gently closing it. She tip-toed her way to Kyle’s and Juan’s room.
Evan followed quietly behind her and peeked from the door.
Nicole gently laid her hand on Juan’s forehead and smiled sweetly at the little boy who was in a deep sleep. She then moved over to Kyle and caressed his forehead.
“Look at you… You should learn from Juan and be more forgiving. Don’t torture yourself just because you’re angry with your father,” Nicole whispered as she touched the boy’s face.
Nicole was about to leave when Kyle gently called out, “Mommy…”
“Are you still awake?” Nicole gasped. She could see the saddened expression on the little boy’s face through the night lamp. “Is something bothering you?”
“Mommy, why did daddy punish us when it’s not our fault?”
Nicole thought about it and patted the boy’s head. “Because daddy always wants you to grow up to be a good man. He’s strict because he’s worried that you might become bad. It shows how much he loves you and your brother.”
“But, he’s taking the witch’s side instead of ours… Are you sure daddy loves us?”
