Let Me Stay The Night novel Chapter 415

Christina could not reject the adorable kids.

She reached for the card and removed the cap of the pen. “All right. Tell me what I should write.”

Lucas cast a glance at Camila. I’ll leave the artistic side of things to Camila,

Camila started eloquently. “My sweet darling, you’re the most important person in my life. I want to hug you, kiss you, and never let you go.”

Christina laughed at her cringy words.

Lucas hurriedly reminded, “Don’t laugh, Mommy. Focus on writing it down.”

Christina stopped laughing and gave him an okay before writing down Camila’s words.

A while later, she handed over the written card to Camila. “I’m done. Shouldn’t you both be going to bed now?”

Camila took the card and skimmed through it in detail. She then gave Christina a tube of lipstick. “Mommy, stamp it.”

“How?” Christina laughed so hard that her shoulders trembled.

Lucas pursed his lips and made a smooching sound. Christina was amused by his charming side.

Comprehension dawned on her as surprise filled her. “Where did you learn that?”

“From the movies. All of them stamp their cards with a kiss.”

Without much choice, Christina applied a layer of lipstick on her lips, then gently pressed them on the card, leaving a red mark.

“Done. Here you go!”

Lucas and Camila checked the card and were satisfied with the mark. “This is perfect. Continue with your work, Mommy. We’ll return to our room to finish our homework.”

“Go ahead.” Christina didn’t notice the kids plan and buried her head in work.

Once Lucas and Camila returned to their study, they slid the card into the gift bag. With all the preparations done, all that was left was to wait for Nathaniel to come home.

The two went to their room after taking a shower. One was drawing, while the other was stacking blocks. Their eyes nearly fell shut but snapped open when they heard the heavy footsteps going up the stairs.

The sleepy kids immediately bolted upright and ran out of their room.

“Daddy, you’re finally back!” Lucas clung onto Nathaniel’s leg.

Camila lifted her arms, gesturing for Nathaniel to carry her. “Daddy, carry me.”

Nathaniel carried the kids in each arm and strode to their bedroom. “Why aren’t the both of you asleep? It’s already so late. Are you waiting up for me?”

Usually, they would have fallen asleep in Christina’s embrace before I even got back. Since when do I have such an important place in their hearts?

Nathamel stopped by the children’s bed and gently set them down.

“Here you go. This is Mommy’s gift for you.” Lucas took an exquisite-looking red bag out of thin air.

“Why didn’t she give it to me herself if it’s from her? Nathaniel asked curiously.

Lucas was at a loss for words. It’s not good when Daddy is too smart.

However, the wheels in his brain turned quickly, and he came up with a response. “Because she’s shy.”

“That’s right. Mommy is also a girl. She’s shy about giving it to you, so she asked for Lucas’ and my help.” Camila was terrible at lying, so she repeated Lucas’ lie with her puppy dog’s eyes.

Nathaniel took the small, red gift bag. Its size was only slightly bigger than his palm. As it was sealed with tape, he couldn’t peek inside it.

Recalling Bailey’s advice, Lucas immediately added, “Mommy said you have to tell her if you like the gift.”

“She said so?” Nathaniel’s brows furrowed. What kind of gift needs feedback?
