“Let’s go.”
“Mommy, that bad woman is definitely complaining to Daddy.” Nina sent Susan and Evan a fierce look.
“Mommy, should we go and complain to Daddy too?” Maya suggested.
Nicole couldn’t hear what Susan was telling Evan across the distance, but she felt a stabbing pain in her heart when she saw Susan leaning against Evan with a miserable expression.
Susan is pregnant, so they’re closer than ever now.
I guess that no matter what Susan says, Evan will definitely defend her!
Under these circumstances, she didn’t want to see them, let alone get into a dispute with them. She only wanted to get as far away as possible from those two.
“No. Let’s go home.”
Evan gazed intently at Nicole as she walked further away from him. He wanted to go after her very badly.
Unfortunately, Susan was holding tightly onto his clothes and bawling her eyes out as she aired her suicidal thoughts. Even when he told her to let go, it was like talking to a wall.
“When do you plan on letting me go?”
Hearing Evan’s icy voice that oozed with disgust, Susan’s heart clenched in her chest. She knew that Evan would go after Nicole if she let him go. If he were to really run after Nicole under the watchful eyes of the crowd, how would she be able to handle their stares and whispers?
Hence, she wasn’t going to let him have his way.
Anxious for a solution, she thought of a commonly used one—pretending to faint.
“Evan, I… I feel dizzy. My head…”
Then, she went limp against Evan’s chest.
Evan furrowed his brows at her. “What’s wrong?”
With so many people watching, it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to just leave an unconscious woman to her own devices.
He stared after Nicole and his four children as the distance between them grew. With a gloomy expression on his face, he scooped Susan into his arms and walked towards a consultation room.
Nicole looked over her shoulder just in time to see Evan carrying Susan to where the consultation room was at.
Is he taking her for her pregnancy checkup?
He even carried her in. He really does pamper his woman.
She had thought that Evan only pampered her. Seeing this, she no longer thought so.
Perhaps Evan would pamper whichever woman he takes a liking to. I’m not that special after all.
“Mommy, are you sad?”
“No. Mommy isn’t sad.”
“Mommy…” Nina called out to her in a sad, tiny voice.
Kyle sighed softly to himself.
I don’t understand what Daddy sees in that woman that he would do this to Mommy.
Daddy is also too much. He didn’t come after us, but carried that woman instead?
No wonder Mommy is sad.
Juan said to Kyle in a hushed voice, “When Daddy has new babies, do you think he’ll still care about us?”
Maya blinked her big eyes as she thought about what Juan and Susan said. Daddy will have many new babies and Daddy will love those little babies very much. Won’t that mean that we won’t have Daddy’s love anymore?
No. I can’t let that happen.
I have to call Daddy and ask him.
Back at home, Maya ran back to her bedroom and secretly called Evan.
“Maya, what happened to Nina’s hand?”
“She was scalded by hot water. It became red and swollen all over. Nina even cried because of the pain.”
“Tell Nina to rest well and that Daddy will go and visit her.”
“Mm! Daddy, will you still care for us in the future?” Maya asked innocently.
“Of course I will!”
“Then, after you have many little babies, will you still care for us?”
Evan frowned and asked, “Maya, why are you asking me this question all of a sudden?”
“Your new wife said that she was going to give birth to many babies; even more than Mommy. Five or six, she said. Like a litter of piglets.”
Evan swept his gaze over Susan who was still unconscious beside him. So, they weren’t just arguing about the Rose Garden incident earlier.
She even said this in front of Nicole and the four kids?
“Maya, don’t worry. She won’t be able to give birth to a single baby. You four are Daddy’s only children.”
Susan’s hand twitched slightly as she lay unconscious on the bed.
“Really? Then will you continue loving us?”
“Yes. Daddy will love you all forever.”
After the call ended, Maya’s eyes brightened. She relayed this piece of news to Nina with a smile sprawled across her face.
