“Yes, he has been napping in his room since an hour ago. Mr. Seet, do you need him?”
“An hour?”
With that, Evan hung up almost immediately. He grabbed his jacket and swiftly made his way back home.
Meanwhile, Sofie flew into a fit of rage upon learning that Evan had hung up on her.
She was certain that Evan did not want her to know of his whereabouts. He must have been in the bar, flirting with some b*tch!
With such a thought in mind, Sofie hurried off to the bar in a huff.
Only daring to stand up after she had left, Kyle returned to Nicole’s car restlessly.
“Kyle, where have you been? You’ve scared the wits out of me!”
Since Nicole appeared to be anxious, Kyle informed her about the situation regarding Sofie.
“Sofie has just informed Dad about me. We have to leave now!”
What?
Nicole tensed up as she started to knead her hands together anxiously. If Evan finds out about it, he won’t allow me to even cast a step near Kyle anymore.
What shall I do now?
At that instance, her phone rang. She glanced at the caller’s ID before she had answered it, asking, “Juan, what is it?”
“Mommy, Maya has seen the other kids eating yogurt toast. She wants some too. Can you give me some money so that I can buy some?”
“Y-You aren’t at school?”
“The teacher at school has been teaching us stuff that I already know. I had promised you that I’d take care of Maya, right? I’m outside Hillside Villa now. Mommy, come on out!”
“Outside Hillside Villa? How did you get there?” Nicole was shocked.
“I had won an electric scooter from my friend! It’s the latest edition, so it’s cool and pretty swift!”
If Evan discovers that I’d brought Kyle out secretly, he’ll chase me out. Seeing that he is still sick, I can’t leave now.
Since Juan is currently outside Hillside Villa, there seems to be only one way out.
