Her Return, His Regret novel Chapter 116

“Mommy, would you like to go on a date with us?” Ethan asked Lora over the weekend.

Lora arched an eyebrow. She was seated in the garden, relaxing on a swing and reading one of her favorite books.

Ryan had gone on a business trip to seal a deal, so he wasn’t around to keep her busy.

She looked at Ethan and laughed, “A date? Can you afford one?”

“Of course!” Ethan responded and took out a black card. “Big Grandpa gave us our allowance and we want to spoil you.”

Lora’s eyes widened as she stared at the card meant for VIPs. Who gives a five-year-old an unlimited card as an allowance?

Lora sighed, stretching her hand to cup Ethan’s face. She replied, “Thank you, sweetheart. But this is your allowance… you get what you want. Mommy already has money.”

“I know you have money, but we just want to do something special for you… please?” Ethan remarked, batting his eyes.

Lora chuckled, amused at Ethan’s attempt to act cute. It was rare to see him like this, so she gave in. “Fine… but we won’t spend too much. You should save or invest your allowance to make it bigger.”

When they passed through the living room, Lora glanced at her parents and said, “We are going out for a bit.”

“You’ve agreed to go on a date with us?” Ella asked excitedly, she had been waiting inside the mansion as Ethan did the needful.

“Yes, I have,” Lora replied. “Anything for you my darlings.”

“Yeah!” Ella squeaked, jumping up and down. "We are going to have so much fun, Mommy. You will see."

Freya and Jack Davis looked at Lora. They were seated on a two-seater couch in the living room, enjoying a movie.

Freya smiled and remarked, “Have fun. See you soon.”

Jack nodded. He smirked and wrapped a hand around Freya’s shoulders before saying, “Take your time… I want to spend time with my wife.”

Lora rolled her eyes and led the kids out of the house. The driver was already waiting so, they got into the car and left.

“So, what do you have planned for our date?” Lora asked.

Ethan smiled and said, “We are going to an island!”

“What?” Lora exclaimed, her eyes rounding in shock. “H-how? What island? And why is the date so grand?”

She thought they just wanted to take her to the theme park and then they would get some pizza and ice cream like always.

“Relax, Mommy,” Ethan remarked before taking out the black card again. “We have everything under control. The island belongs to big Grandpa, which means it belongs to Daddy and that means it belongs to us.”

Lora arched an eyebrow. She didn’t want the twins to take advantage of Charles’ kindness.

“Find another place where we will have the date. We can’t go to the island-”

“No, Mommy, everything has been arranged already. We can’t cancel now… don’t you feel sorry for the workers who’ve put in effort in planning this date?” Ethan reasoned. "Besides, big Grandpa will be sad if we don't use his money. He said he wanted to do something for his great-grandkids and we chose to take you on a date."

“Please don’t say no, Mommy,” Ella pleaded, backing her brother up.
