“We’ve only been here for several days, and you are starting to miss them already? Don’t worry. Mom will take good care of them,” Evan comforted her.
She flashed him a smile and didn’t utter a word. When she lifted a glass of milk to drink, it slipped and fell to the ground unexpectedly, making her heart skip a beat.
He looked at her caringly and asked, “Are you scalded?”
She shook her head and replied, “No.” Nevertheless, she began to feel uneasy unknowingly.
Why would a glass suddenly slip from my hand and shatter into pieces? Was it the sign of a bad omen?
A worried look flashed across her eyes when she looked up at him.
Even though Evan noticed her grim expression, he thought she probably overthought because she was pregnant. As such, he comforted, “It’s fine. Only a glass is broken.”
However, since her heart was thumping, she told him, “But I feel very uneasy. Should we give Nina and Maya a call?”
He decided to give them a call to console her.
However, as soon as he made the phone call, he realized that Maya’s phone was turned off.
The same happened to Nina’s phone when he called her.
As such, Nicole began to really feel worried about them.
“Did something bad happen?”
“Don’t be nervous. I’ll call Mom.”
Unexpectedly, Sophia’s phone was also turned off when he called her.
What… Why did all of them turn off their phones? Is this the latest trend in our house?
Nicole knitted her brows and was as confused as him. Besides, she grew increasingly anxious about it.
“Don’t worry. Let me call Dad.” He didn’t believe that everyone in the house had turned off his or her phone.
Miles away, Jonathan’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Evan’s call. Also, he hesitated about what he should say. Should I tell Evan about what is happening to Sophia, Nina, Maya, and the Seet Group?
