Bang!
Nicole was relieved as soon as she closed the door of the study.
Evan would ask me to make coffee throughout the afternoon if I didn’t come up with the idea. Who knows what will his next tricks be! Anyway, I must achieve my goal as soon as possible.
She decided to look for an opportunity to talk to Evan about it.
On the other hand, Evan slowly averted his gaze from the thermometer and heaved a sigh deep in his heart. She is smart somehow, yet her attitude… What a pity…
He decided to get custody of Juan as soon as possible and force Nicole to leave his house. After all, the sooner she left, the less likely she could influence Juan.
After falling silent for a while, he made a phone call and gave an instruction.
“Mr. Seet, did you say…”
“He is our only bargaining chip to threaten Nicole.”
“Understood, Mr. Seet. I will do it right away.”
When Evan hung up the phone, he lowered his head and glanced at his watch. After that, he strode steadily toward the garage.
Nicole picked up her kids from the kindergarten in the afternoon. The kids immediately played with their own toys once they were back. However, only Maya looked grumpy because she kept pursing her lips and didn’t utter a word.
“What happened, Maya?” Nicole asked worriedly.
Maya only begins her plan to lose weight today. Did something happen?
After a while, Maya looked at Nina grumpily and complained, “When our teacher was distributing biscuits just now, Nina grabbed mine and gulped it down.” Tears began to well up in her eyes when she spoke.
Meanwhile, Nicole’s heart wrenched when she looked at Maya’s pitiful face.
“Nina, why did you eat Maya’s biscuit?”
“Since she has to lose weight, I was merely helping her.”
“Mommy, I’m hungry…” Once Maya finished, tears began to stream down her face.
“Mommy is going to get some food for you now.”
