Juan and Kyle stood up and said, “Mommy, we want him to be our bodyguard and protect us. Please.”
Bodyguard.
Blinking her eyes, Maya said her words without filtering. “It could work. Yoda’s face can scare baddies away.”
Nina chimed in, “If Yoda can be Juan and Kyle’s bodyguard, I can practice my make-up skills by using him as my model.”
If I can make his hideous face look attractive, that means my skills have improved.
Nicole recalled the times the kids asked her about Evan’s return. It may be better to have someone accompanying them, so they won’t ask me when Evan will come back again and again as I can’t give them an answer. It’s for the best…
“Are you willing to be my kids’ bodyguard? We can discuss your pay.” She finally agreed after being silent for a while.
Yoda nodded in agreement.
She said, “Alright, thank you. I’ll pay you enough.”
Yoda nodded again.
“That’s amazing! From now on, you shall follow us, Yoda.”
Nina said, “Yoda, after we’re back, I’ll help you do some make-up.”
And Kyle asked, “Yoda, do you know Taekwondo? Can you accompany me during my Taekwondo practice?”
Yoda nodded again.
The kids held his hands and smiled happily.
Nicole, who was following behind them, felt a pang of sadness in her heart. If only you’re Evan, Yoda.
But…
Fate is cruel.
The news about Yoda shopping with Nicole while holding the kids’ hands spread like wildfire and became a trending topic.
Those people who took photos of them only took Yoda’s back, and his figure looked like Evan.
And this caused an uproar.
When Jonathan and Sophia saw the topic and photos, they couldn’t hold back their excitement.
Sophia shouted, “Is he Evan? Is this my son?”
Jonathan said, “Not at all. Look at his clothing. Evan won’t wear something so shabby.”
Sophia argued. “He doesn’t look like Evan from the way he dresses, but his back looks similar. I’ll have to call Nicole.”
Upon saying her words, she stood up as thoughts swirled her mind. “No… No. I’ll have to see for myself. What if my son lives and comes back to us? I need to know if he’s Evan.”
She quickly put away her stuff and dragged Jonathan to Nicole’s house.
Sheila and Davin, too, felt surprised as they scrutinized the photos and discussed. Is he actually Evan?
Sheila said, “He looks like Evan.”
Davin replied, “No. We need to confirm if he’s Evan.”
Sheila suggested, “Then, we need to see his face.”
After digesting her suggestion, Davin did as she said. “His face? Okay. I’ll call Juan to ask where they’re at. And we shall go to see for ourselves.”
Feeling excited, Sheila urged, “Alright. Quick, call him.”
Davin took his phone and immediately dialed Juan’s number.
Meanwhile, when Lisa saw the topic on trending, she was so shocked that her expression changed immediately.
She muttered, “He… He lived?”
Adam replied, “No. I don’t think he is Evan. Who do you think Evan is? According to Evan’s taste in fashion and his quality of life, he’ll never wear something so plain.”
Lisa insisted, “You don’t think so? But look at his back.”
Adam argued. “There’s nothing his back can prove. We need to see his face.”
Lisa asked, “Then, shall we go see him?”
Adam said, “No need. Others are more eager to know the truth. We only have to go to the Seet Residence.”
Right, Jonathan and Sophia must be rushing to investigate the matter personally. We only need to wait for the news.
“Alright, let’s go now.” Lisa agreed with Adam’s opinion.
Imperial Garden.
Nina held Yoda’s hand, insisting to help him with some make-up while Yoda didn’t refuse and went along with her.
Juan, Kyle, and Maya stared at Yoda’s face while passing the make-up products one by one to Nina.
They wanted to see if Yoda would look good with make-up.
After more than an hour of putting on make-ups here and there on his face, Yoda’s face changed entirely.
When Maya saw his face, she was stunned. “Wow! He looks like Daddy!”
Kyle chimed in and said, “He really does resembles Daddy.”
Juan advised, “Nina, your make-up skills are amazing. You mustn’t let your talent go to waste, so be a make-up artist when you grow up.”
