My babies and Hanson are not easy to deal with. What am I supposed to say right now?
Now that their mother was in a tough position, the boys let out a silent sigh. "Fine. We can talk tomorrow, Mommy."
They were generous enough to allow Hanson spend time alone with Vania tonight. As someone who respected the elderly, they chose to cave in.
Hanson would never expect how his own children saw him as an old person. He simply let out a triumphant smile upon watching them leave.
That smile of his made Vania's skin crawl. Hanson carried her instantly and trod toward the room as she had expected.
She placed her hands against his chest and said, "What are you up to?"
He pecked her lips. "You know it."
What is there to ask about? Isn't it obvious what I'm going to do next?
"So, are you trying to retrieve your final reward?"
Hanson snapped his fingers with a bright smile. "Smart. Since you got it right, should I give you a reward?"
Another naughty smile flashed on his face when he mentioned the word 'reward', causing her to roll her eyes.
That is not a reward. All he knows is to bully me.
As though he was trying to be considerate, he compromised. "I'll give you only one reward today. We'll talk about the next one next time."
What? Why am I suddenly in 'debt'? This naughty guy. He takes every chance he has and says it like it's for my sake.
Hence, Vania resorted to a pitiful plea. "Honey, didn't you say that I've had a rough day that I couldn't even take a rest? So, shouldn't we rest up?" She blinked her eyes. "As for today's reward, we can continue it next time."
She's bargaining. Is she not going to fall for it now?
Still, Hanson did not fall for the trap. "You should know that that was my excuse to the kids. I just didn't want them to keep pestering you because the rest of your time belongs to me."
"The boys will be upset to hear that."
He shook his head. "It's alright. They have a strong mentality despite their tender age."
The boys were clever enough to see through him by reading between the lines. Otherwise, they would not have let Vania go that early.
Now that her only excuse was gone, she sighed silently.
At that moment, Hanson suddenly thought of something and fished out his phone immediately. Hugging her in his arms, he took a picture of themselves together.
That sudden action stunned her. "What are you doing?"
"Taking pictures." He clearly frowned upon that silly question.
Can't she tell what I was doing?
She slapped him on the arm. "Of course, I know that. I'm asking what that's for."
Their untidy clothes were inappropriate for a picture either.
"To share it on social media," answered Hanson straightforwardly.
"What?" Vania was baffled as she knew that the man never shared anything on Instagram story. Thus, why was he acting that way all of the sudden?
Instead of clearing her doubts, he opened his Instagram.
