The question stunned Kyle. “Levant’s definitely going to be on the lookout for us. Trying to stop the wedding won’t be easy.”
“That’s why it’s imperative for us to find Daddy. He’ll know how to get Mommy back.”
Kyle nodded in agreement.
Soon, the sky dimmed as the sun gradually disappears below the horizon. The two little ones knew it was time to move out.
Fortunately, they had no problem sneaking into Avril’s residence.
Sighing in the courtyard, Avril was startled when she inadvertently saw two small figures moving. “What the hell?”
She stood up and walked over to take a closer look, but the two shadows had already disappeared.
“That’s weird. I thought I saw two figures moving. Something must be wrong with my eyes.” Even after rubbing her eyes, Avril couldn’t find anything.
However, when she turned around, she suddenly saw two little kids ran into her room.
Avril immediately rushed in after them and locked the door behind her.
“Come out now!”
Juan and Kyle both trembled as they wondered if that was the end of their operation. This lady sure has sharp eyes. We’re doomed now!
“If you don’t come out on your own, I’ll seek you out myself. And when I do, I’ll fry you up as my dinner!”
Juan shivered all over before whispering to Kyle, “This madwoman is scary. Should we just surrender ourselves?”
“Let’s wait a little longer,” replied Kyle after some thought.
Juan held his breath and prayed that they would not be discovered as he waited for the woman to make a move.
“Not surrendering, are we? Fine. I’ll drag you out myself!”
Avril rolled her sleeves and started rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
Listening to the noises of the search, the kids’ hearts almost beat out of their chests, for they had never seen a woman so hellbent on catching them. Who knows what’s going to happen if she catches us.
Suddenly, the wardrobe door was opened, and the two kids desperately backed as far away inside as they could.
“What are you two doing in my courtyard? Are you after my body or money? Is this an attempt on my life?” asked Avril as she dragged the children out unceremoniously.
Why would we need her money or her body? Look at how young we are! And how would we kill her without any weapon? This madwoman is just weird.
Juan looked at Avril with rounded eyes and smiled. “We’re not here for your money or your life. Even though you’re as beautiful as a diamond sparkling in the morning light, we kids are not here for your body either.”
This kid sure knows how to butter up someone.
“Then why are you two sneaking around in those outfits?”
After some thinking, Juan answered sincerely, “Well, that’s because we’re playing hide-and-seek.”
However, Avril was unconvinced. Why would anyone think it’s necessary to wear black suits for hide-and-seek?
As she continued to look at the two suspiciously, Avril suddenly realized how similar they looked to someone she knew. Could that person be the reason why they’re here?
After serious consideration, she stared at Juan intently. “I can tell that you’re not being honest with me. I can read minds, so there’s no point in lying to me.”
She can read minds? Nobody can do that! This madwoman must be lying to us, but jokes on you! We won’t be fooled!
“If you can read minds, tell us why we’re here then,” requested Kyle coldly.
