Evan won’t listen to me.
But what do I do if that woman continues to treat Kyle that way?
Filled with worry, Nicole was just about to leave the Hillside Villa when she unexpectedly met Sofie who was hurrying home.
Sofie stopped to check out Nicole who was dressed casually but could not hide her hourglass figure. Although Nicole was only wearing thin makeup, Sofie could tell that she was a beauty.
I’ve never seen this woman before. Is she one of Evan’s admirers?
“You are?”
“Evan’s aunt!”
After giving Sofie a glance, Nicole just left as she had no intention of chatting with the woman who bullied her child.
Baffled, Sofie watched Nicole walk away as she wondered if Evan had an aunt that young.
Before I get married into the Seet family, I should probably visit Evan’s family to get to know them.
After entering through the door, Sofie worriedly asked about Kyle, “Evan, any news about Kyle yet?”
Evan nodded, “He’s safely back home.”
That’s fast.
A little disappointed, Sofie was hoping that she would never have to see Kyle again.
“I was so worried! Good thing he’s fine. So was it Kyle’s mother who took him away?”
“No!” replied Evan without any hesitation.
A woman like Nicole is not worthy of being a mother!
“Who was it then?”
“A madwoman!”
Feeling like something was off, Sofie frowned at the answer she got.
Looking at Sofie, Evan exhorted, “Now that this is over, I hope you pay more attention to Kyle’s emotions. Make him happy.”
Sofie’s face darkened as she wondered what Evan meant by that.
Did Kyle tell Evan something?
After recollecting herself, Sofie assured Evan, “Don’t worry, Evan. I will.”
That night, Nicole got so worried about Kyle that she got distracted while cooking. When it was finally dinner time, Maya and Nina could not stop complaining, “Mommy, this is way too salty! Did you get carried away with the salt?”
“What salt? This is tasteless! I think mommy forgot about the salt.”
“You probably had too much dessert. Did you lose your taste buds?”
“I think you lost yours! This is anything but salty!”
“Yes, it is!”
“No, it’s not!”
Annoyed by the two’s bickering, Nicole decided to taste her work.
Juan giggled as he pointed at Nina’s plate, “This is salty.” Then he pointed at Maya’s plate, “This is not.”
After trying out the food herself, Nicole nodded, “You’re right, Juan. I must’ve put all the salt on the same plate. Let me get you guys another.”
“It’s okay, mommy. We can mix it up.”
“Mommy, is something bothering you?”
Nicole forced a smile, “No! I’m fine.” Then she went back to the kitchen to whip up some soup for the kids.
While Nina followed Nicole into the kitchen to help out, Maya got the portion that was unsalted all to her.
The clever boy, Juan knew something was bothering Nicole, and he knew just what it was because she just went to Kyle’s kindergarten today, so it had to be related to Kyle.
After dinner, Juan hurriedly went back to his room to text Kyle.
Unexpectedly, he waited but did not get a reply even until he fell asleep.
The next morning, Juan picked up his phone to check but still no reply.
What’s going on?
Juan was starting to worry, so he decided to find the right time to go look for Kyle at Grant Kindergarten.
Meanwhile, Kyle just had his breakfast and was getting ready for Sofie to send him to school. As soon as Sofie walked in with a big smile on her face, she gave Kyle the new Lego she just bought.
“This is a present from me. Do you like it?”
