Nicole hurried over. “Kyle, let me help you wash up,” offered Nicole.
Evan spoke up before Kyle could respond. “He can do it on his own, so don’t spoil him,” ordered Evan.
Kyle turned around and stared at him. His tiny face looked annoyed before he dragged himself to the washroom.
Nicole then headed to the kitchen to make him some breakfast.
Blake grinned at her and informed, “You don’t need to prepare breakfast, Ms. Tussaud. Your mornings are too packed, so Mr. Seet’s mother said that you only need to prepare lunch and dinner.”
Nicole really appreciated how thoughtful Sophia was.
Kyle barely ate any of his sandwiches before he set it down. It was obvious that he didn’t like them.
Nicole was heartbroken to see that, so she asked, “Kyle, what would you like to have for breakfast? I’ll make it for you.”
What? Do you have any idea what time it is?”
Evan’s frustrated tone rang up and prompted Nicole to check her watch. Evan was right, and she didn’t have time to cook anything.
“Sorry, I was worried about him going hungry, so I didn’t pay attention to the time.”
Evan stared intently at her before he suddenly scoffed aloud.
You abandoned Kyle when he was just a baby, so why bother putting on an act now? Do you honestly think you can fool everyone?
Nicole got confused. She was trying to figure out why he scoffed when Evan glared over in distaste and insulted, “Your acting sucks.” After that, he walked up the stairs.
Nicole connected the dots then. Ah, he assumed that this is all an act. Wow, a man really would find everything you do suspicious when he doesn’t trust you.
Nicole figured that she would never be able to clear her good name with Evan.
She sighed but soon realized that she was overthinking. Why bother caring what he thinks of me? He can think of anything he wants. That won’t affect me.
Kyle packed up soon after and walked out of his bedroom with his backpack on. Nicole helped him straighten his clothes some more before they held hands and left the living room together.
They got into the car, and Nicole turned to Kyle. She asked with a concerned tone, “What do you like to have for breakfast? How about Mommy prepare everything beforehand and bring it over for you? You can have the same breakfast as Juan, Nina, and Maya.”
Kyle was curious about what his siblings have for breakfast, so he nodded happily as soon as he heard that they could all have the same dishes for breakfast.
The car reached Grant Kindergarten soon after.
Kyle hopped out of the car and waved goodbye to Nicole before he turned around and walked into the kindergarten. Nicole grinned as she stared at his tiny figure moving away.
She had fantasized countless times about having the opportunity to do something for Kyle. Just some motherly care for him, and her wish finally came true.
Nicole didn’t get back into her car until she could no longer see Kyle’s back. She quickly made a U-turn and rushed to Seet Group.
That was her first day at work, so she was terrified of making a mistake. She kept reminding herself that she must do a good job.
John led her to her department and handed two documents to her. “Ms. Tussaud, this is your task for the day, please print the documents out once you have finished translating them. You can leave after you deliver them to Mr. Seet.”
Translating those documents was a simple task for her, but delivering them to Evan… He’s gonna scowl at me and insult me again. Nicole was extremely reluctant to do that.
“Can I ask someone else to hand them to Mr. Seet?”
“No, that won’t do. These documents are confidential, and Mr. Seet had specially requested for you to deliver them personally. You cannot let anyone else see them.”
They’re that important? And Evan requested them?
Nicole got even more nervous.
She felt like Evan had an ulterior motive for asking her to deliver these documents.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t do anything about it. She would have to deal with it when the problem arose.
