It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1703

Annie didn't leave the cafe until more than an hour later. She had been thinking the whole time since Rain left. She had meant to tell Rain that she had agreed to move into his house together with the kids in order to see how they would get along with one another. Never had she expected all his vicious blow though. She hadn't even been given a chance to talk.

She made a call to YS Group and advised that she would be absent for the afternoon. Her heart was aching too much and she didn't think that she could work properly with how emotionally drained she was. Rather, she drove straight back home.

"Mommy, you're back. Why are you home so early today?" Both the kids were very happy to see her because she generally had only a little time to be with them. They had used to be together with the housekeeper for most of the time back when they had been in Phuket.

"Because you're going to kindergarten tomorrow! I want to play with you before you guys get busy," Annie answered. She had been working on making the kids familiar with S City. She believed that it was time for them to meet new friends.

"Really? Yey! We can meet new teachers and new friends tomorrow!" Joyce was quite happy to hear what her mother said. She was so giggling and it was easy to see that she wasn't even affected by all the things that had happened to them recently.

"Hmm! Are you happy?" Annie stroked her daughter's hair and forced a smile on her lips.

"Of course I am! It's boring at home," Joyce answered. Children always like being together with as many people as possible.

"Mommy, are we staying here in S City for good?" However, Huey was not so happy as Joyce. He had always been maturer than his sister and could read through situations well.

"No. We will probably go back to Phuket after the Spring Festival. Why? Do you want us to stay here?" Annie's eyes went milder as she stared at Huey. Huey looked exactly like Rain and looking at her son usually gave Annie the feeling that she was looking at Rain.

"I want it here because daddy is here!" Huey said. His sister could have all the freedom in the world to like Uncle Fred but he only liked his father.

Annie quickly stood up and walked into her bedroom after hearing Huey. She didn't know how to tell him that it would be impossible for her and his father to get together again. What had happened earlier already marked the end for them. She had already let their last chance slip between her fingers in exchange for her poor pride.

"Huey, what's wrong with mommy? Did you make her sad?" The little girl asked while pouting. She felt that Huey was the one to blame for her mother's sadness.

"It's all your fault. Why did you tell Uncle Fred where we live?!" Huey got angry too. If Uncle Fred hadn't come to their house, then their father wouldn't have caught their mother and their Uncle Fred together repeatedly. That could have lessened the misunderstanding between their parents greatly!

"You're annoying. Didn't Uncle Fred buy a toy for you?" Joyce's eyes turned red and it seemed that she would burst into tears at any time.

"I don't want his toy at all! I only want daddy," Huey yelled to her. There were times when he really hated her princess' syndrome, though she was his own sister.
