Nina rolled her eyes at Susan and said, “We’re not going to sleep together with you. I’ll sleep with Maya.”
Maya continued to hug Evan’s thigh and did not let go. She paid attention to no one.
Kyle observed Maya’s reaction and felt that Maya’s abuse definitely had something to do with Susan.
He looked at Susan and asked coolly, “Maya seems to be afraid of you.”
Susan’s face was full of horror.
“How can that be? Why would she be afraid of me? I’d say she’s just used to sleeping with Evan for the past few days and doesn’t want to be away from him. Is that right, Maya? Do you want to sleep together with Daddy?”
Maya nodded resolutely.
Of course she wanted to sleep with her father. She was genuinely afraid to be abused again by Susan.
“Alright, Maya. You’ll sleep with Daddy and Nina tonight, okay?”
Maya nodded resolutely and the fear in her eyes slowly disappeared.
Nina was startled. So Daddy wants to sleep with Maya and me?
As Nina had never slept with Daddy before, she would not mind giving it a try and gladly accepted the arrangement.
Juan was staring at Kyle the whole time. He saw Kyle scrutinizing Susan intensely, seemingly wondering what kind of monster Susan was.
Susan initially wanted to have Maya under her control for her own purpose. However, it seemed that her plan would not work out, so she now had to think of other ways.
Juan and Kyle quietly asked John about Nicole’s current condition.
John beamed inwardly. He had been waiting for both of them to ask him.
He let out a long sigh and said, “Kyle and Juan, there’s a possibility you might lose your Mommy. She has decided to marry Levant.”
Kyle rolled his eyes at John, who looked troubled. “We knew that Mommy is getting married to Levant. Tell us something we don’t already know.”
“Yes, please get to the point. Has Daddy thought of how to get Mommy back?” Juan was concerned.
John heaved a sigh and told the boys, “It’s useless even if Mr. Seet comes up with an idea. Mrs. Seet doesn’t even want to see him. She chased him out before he could even finish speaking. I’m afraid it’s up to you kids this time.”
The boys exchanged glances. Does Mommy hate Daddy so much?
Daddy brought it upon himself. He shouldn’t have put Mommy in jail in the beginning.
Seeing them in silence, John grew anxious and said, “Your mother is getting married to Levant tomorrow. It’ll be too late if you guys don’t put a stop to this. By the time Mrs. Seet marries Levant and gives birth to seven or eight more children, you guys won’t even stand a chance to get back your mother.”
“Rubbish! We’ll get her back,” Juan retorted immediately.
John was startled. “Even if you were to get her back, your mother would be heartbroken to see you and your half-siblings fighting among yourselves. It will be impossible for her to choose between you all. Do you want her to be sad?”
Juan gave it a thought. “Let’s think of a way to stop Mommy from getting married. I don’t want to have to fight with half-siblings to win her back.”
“That’s right. Why don’t you both secretly have a meeting with Nina and Maya? Brainstorm about it, and if you need anything, just let me know. I’ll definitely help you in any way that I can.” John patted his chest as he made his promise.
Juan nodded. “Alright. I’ll call both of them over in a bit.”
The usually quiet Kyle urged, “Don’t wait till later. Go and call them now; we are running out of time.”
“Alright, I’ll go now.”
Juan dashed out like a tornado, and soon, both girls followed him to the bedroom. He quietly shut the door behind him.
The four kids put their heads together and discussed how to stop their mother from marrying someone else.
Nina spoke first, “Why don’t we go and see Mommy and talk her out of it?”
Juan shook his head and said, “We can’t simply enter the Wicked Palace. According to Uncle Lindt, we can only wait till nightfall before we can go there. Besides, Mommy has already made up her mind; there’s no way we can talk her out of it.”
“Then what should we do?”
Juan suggested, “How about this… we get someone to beat up Levant till he’s bedridden. Then he won’t be able to marry Mommy.”
