The children were upset, knowing that their most beloved mommy had been taken by the barbaric hog. Because of that, it would be inevitable for Vania to get the cold shoulder.
Just then, Hanson walked out of the room but without the sensual expression on his face. Instead, he was in high spirits, and everyone could tell that he was in a good mood.
"Hmph…" Seven of them scoffed as they ignored him.
Hanson was unfazed when he saw that and walked over to Vania while smiling. However, Vania immediately dodged him like he was the plague. She wanted to avoid having any intimate interactions with him in front of the children, or else she might be getting silent treatment from them.
Finally, James broke the silence and asked, "Mommy, how is your body?"
"My body is good," she replied as she beamed like nothing had occurred.
She wasn't aware of what Hanson had told them. On top of that, she couldn't tell them he was the one who gave her body aches.
Upon hearing that, all of them glared at Hanson at the same time, as if they were unhappy that he had lied to them.
Noticing their expression, she asked him bitterly, "What have you said to the children?" No wonder her children seemed cold toward her. It turned out that Hanson was the reason behind it.
"Darling, I just told them that you're too tired and that you need more rest." He rubbed his nose and attested.
Vania clearly understood the meaning behind the words 'too tired'. She looked at them with guilt and immediately explained, "Darlings, don't listen to his nonsense. Mommy is fine. I'll go and prepare lunch for all of you."
Right after, she shot a look at him, warning him not to sputter nonsense in front of the children.
He got the cue and made a mouth-zipping gesture before walking over to the children. He caressed Lily's head and asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Yes, I did." She nodded.
Her brothers had decorated her room like a fairyland which looked really beautiful.
Hearing that, Hanson nodded. "Let us know if there's anything that you need. We will fulfill it."
Lily nodded.
"How about you, Jude? How are you feeling?" Hanson asked concernedly.
"I'm all good." He patted his chest because he didn't feel any discomfort.
As Hanson nodded, he thought that it was about time they met Melanie since she shouldn't have any more plans up her sleeve. When lunch was ready, all of them sat around the table and had lunch amiably.
After lunch, Hanson looked over at Vania and said, "Darling, let's go." He then went on to carry her in his arms. "I'll carry you so that you won't feel tired."
Seven of the children stared at them and despised how flirty Hanson was.
"Put me down," she whispered since it seemed inappropriate to do that in front of the children.
"I won't let go." He then carried her into the car and drove toward the cave in the suburbs.
As soon as Hanson reached, someone came out and greeted him, saying, "President Luke, how are you?"
When Melanie heard that Hanson was there, she immediately cheered up. However, she was in quite a bad shape as she looked disheveled, and her face was pale.
"Hanson, Hanson!" she screamed hysterically, which gave everyone the chills.
