Chapter 5 I’m Here to See You
In Haling Villa, Vania was reading with her children when the doorbell suddenly rang. At the sound, the four of them whipped their heads around at the same time. She barely had enough visitors as it was, but who would come at this hour?
Vania dubiously walked to the entrance, and when she saw who the visitor was through the peephole, she yelped inwardly. Crap. Why did Hanson show up here?
Without giving herself time to think about it, she immediately turned around and walked toward her children, ordering in a serious voice, “Sweethearts, go back to your own rooms now. You can only come out after my message.”
Jack stood up in confusion at the way his mother was acting. “Mommy, who’s here? Why do we have to hide?”
Vania explained patiently, “He’s the President of Luke Corporation, Hanson Luke. Since you hacked into his Finance Department’s firewalls last time, I don’t want him to see any of you. Be good and go back to your rooms to wait for me. I’ll solve this, believe me.”
James spoke up calmly. “We’re not scared, and you shouldn’t be either, Mommy. We have a plan to defeat him. Besides, with us here, we’ll definitely protect you and won’t let him bully you.”
They had to protect their mother at all times, and it was just too much for this Devil to dare to come knocking on their door! James and Jack’s impression of Hanson became even worse.
On the other hand, Jacob nodded obediently. “If I listen to Mommy, can I have more ice cream tonight?” He didn’t care as much as his brothers. After all, what was so special about that Devil? He wasn’t as good as ice cream, and he believed his mother would take care of it.
“……”
Vania touched her forehead with a hand at the realization that her sons were starting to learn how to bargain. However, she couldn’t dwell on it too much, so she nodded in agreement. “You can, but you have to help Mommy convince your brothers.”
The moment she said that, Jacob extended his chubby little hands and hugged his two brothers. “Please…”
He barely spoke before his two doting brothers immediately caved in. “All right, we’ll listen to Mommy too.”
This time, they could only let the Devil get away.
Vania gave each of her children a kiss as a reward. She wouldn’t let her children suffer any harm because of something she did not have full control of.
