When Nicole heard Maya, she looked up and glared at her. “I’m not a white dog, I’m your sister!”
Kyle immediately bolted up and asked, “Nina, what happened to you?”
“Someone did it on purpose.”
Kyle frowned. Someone splashed water on Juan, Nina was covered in flour and Maya was hit by a ball. Would it be his turn next?
It seemed like someone was watching them in the dark.
They had to catch the culprit as soon as possible.
After Juan came out of the shower and was dressed in a fresh set of clothing, he got a shock when he saw Nina, who was all covered in flour.
“How did you end up like this?”
“Well, same as you. I was targeted as well.”
Urgh! Seems like those were all planned attacks.
“Damn! I’ll investigate it immediately. I’ll find out who has such nerves to play pranks on us!”
After Juan finished speaking, he stomped outside furiously but stopped in his tracks the moment he stepped into the yard and was stunned.
“Mommy, what happened to you?”
“Mommy, what’s going on?”
The kids dropped their jaws when they saw Nicole, who had just returned from outside.
She was drenched and covered with mud. Even her face was full of dirt and she was in an utterly miserable state.
Nicole sighed and replied, “Some prankster pushed me into the lake and it took me so much effort to climb out of it. If it was any deeper, Mommy might have already been dead.”
Is it not enough to prank us kids? Those people are even bullying Mommy now? Are they out to target our whole family?
This is simply despicable! They are too much!
Juan and Kyle clenched their small fists tightly and could not wait to catch the masterminds behind it. They would definitely beat them into a pulp and throw them into the sea as food for the sharks.
“Mommy, go get changed first.”
Once Nicole walked back to her room, Juan and Kyle immediately starting discussing their plan.
“What should we do next?”
Kyle thought about it and replied, “There’s definitely someone watching us. Our enemy is in the shadows while we are in the open. That’s very disadvantageous to us. We should get to a safe place and not let those baddies have a chance to target us.”
Juan nodded in agreement. “Are you also thinking of that place?”
“Other than that grandpa, no one else would dare to go there. It’s the safest place.”
“Yup, let’s ask Mommy to go with us later.”
“Ok.”
After they decided on the plan, the boys waited for Nina and Nicole to finish bathing and get changed before telling them their idea.
Nina was all for it.
Nicole, on the other hand, was both surprised and curious. What’s that place that these four little ones are talking about?
And who’s that grandpa they are referring to?
Nicole observed the surroundings carefully after the kids brought her to the secret place which they had in mind. It was a courtyard that was thoughtfully designed. It was simple yet elegant and seemed out of place within the luxurious estate.
“Mommy, there’s no one inside. We should go in first.”
Nicole followed the four little ones inside. The room had the same vibes and design as the courtyard. It was simple yet elegant, clean and tidy.
She had never imagined that there would be such a peaceful haven hidden within the estate.
“Mommy, take a seat and rest for a while first.”
“Ok.”
Nicole sat on the wooden chair and looked around. For no reason, a familiar feeling suddenly overwhelmed her. It was comforting and she felt just like she was back at her own home.
She was rather surprised that she would be feeling that way towards a place which she had never been before. It was very strange indeed.
“Mommy, look! What’s that?”
Maya was looking at the antiques placed at the side of the room curiously and was about to reach out to pick one up.
“Maya, don’t touch anything here.”
After speaking to Maya, she reminded the other three little ones to not touch anything in the room.
“Mommy, we know that now.”
“Mommy, you stay here with Maya and Nina first. Kyle and I will go and find out who are the ones picking on us.”
Nicole had wanted to go with the boys, but she changed her mind as she thought that it was a good idea to train them.
She knew that her two sons were exceptionally clever. Investigating the matter would be as easy as pie for them.
As such, she stopped worrying and simply reminded them, “The both of you have to be careful. Take your phones along and call Mommy immediately if you need help.”
The two boys nodded and headed towards the courtyard.
They tiptoed towards the place they lived and stopped right before they reached. Then, they found a concealed location to hide themselves.
