Trying his best to suppress his raging emotions, he said in a gentle tone with a half-smile, “Kyle and Juan will be staying over very often, so you’ll be able to see them if you live here.”
Is that so?
Is he doing this for Juan and Kyle?
How deep is his fatherly love!
Nicole asked nothing else. When the elevator’s door was open, the two walked out and went back to the room one after another.
Meanwhile, the kids were getting impatient while waiting.
“Mommy, can we eat now?”
“Yes, let’s eat now.”
Juan, Kyle, and Maya’s eyes lit up instantly, looking like three little hungry wolves that were ready to pounce on their food.
On the other hand, Nina lowered her head in dejection.
I thought Uncle Rocky would challenge the evil Daddy and fight for Mommy. But he was scared away after saying only a few words. The evil daddy even bought this place.
Uncle Rocky is so timid. Such a coward.
He dares not to fight for the woman he loves. I mustn’t be like him when I grow up.
“Nina, eat your food,” Nicole urged when she saw that Nina got the spaced-out look.
Only then did Nina took her spoon and started eating.
After a while, Evan picked up a few pieces of beef and put them on Nina’s plate.
Usually, she would give the beef back to Evan without thinking twice. However, this time, she hesitated. Should I put the beef back on the evil daddy’s plate?
But truth be told, I really admire his boldness and determination.
In the end, she picked the beef up, put it into her mouth, and started chewing with much relish.
Her reaction put a hint of a smile on Evan’s face.
Nina seems much friendlier to me now.
Evan promptly seized the opportunity and suggested taking them to the amusement park or the zoo during the weekend.
Juan and Kyle were over the moon while Maya jumped up and down in excitement.
Yet, Nina froze for a moment before saying, “But I would like to go for painting lessons. Painting gives me inspiration, which will improve my makeup skills.”
Immediately, Evan took out his phone and called John, asking him to find out the best art academies in the city for Nina to choose one according to her preference.
A faint smile appeared on Nina’s usually distant face.
I guess the evil daddy is not that evil after all…
Alright, I’ll go then.
“Okay, let’s eat first. Nina, you’re too slim, so please eat more meat.”
Nicole put some meat on Nina’s plate, but Nina picked the meat up and put it on Maya’s plate with a grin.
“Mommy, I like eating vegetables, so I’ll give Maya the meat.”
Feeling happy, Maya thanked Nina and praised her for being a thoughtful sister.
She even promised not to hit Nina with her signature Maya Punch anymore.
After dinner, Juan and Kyle executed their secret plan. They discreetly slipped into the bedroom and pretended to be asleep.
After a while, Evan entered the room. He heaved a sigh when he saw the two boys on the bed. These two little rascals didn’t even know how to fake sleep. They’re squeezing their eyes shut so hard that it’s obvious they are faking it.
He stretched out his hand to pinch Juan’s little butt.
Despite the pain, Juan kept his eyes shut tightly. He gritted his teeth, enduring the pain.
Then Evan turned to pinch Kyle, who then tried hard to stifle a scream.
“Your acting skills are so bad. If you keep pretending this way, your Mommy will surely chase the three of us out.”
The two boys instantly opened their eyes and stared at him.
“Daddy, you don’t want to leave too?”
“Daddy, do you want to stay as well?”
“Nonsense! I’m only teaching you how to pretend to be asleep.”
With that, he peeked over his shoulder at the room’s door. Then he patiently gave the two boys tips on how to fake sleep.
Noticing that they had learned well, he even reminded them to act more like it in front of Nicole.
The moment Evan left the room, Juan pulled Kyle up from the bed. “I think we should ask Nina and Maya to pretend to be asleep too.”
“Why?” Kyle asked in surprise.
Juan said with a giggle, “Just think about it. If Nina and Maya sleep in their room, and we sleep in this room, then Daddy and Mommy will have no choice but to sleep together. Am I right?”
