According to Davin, Evan thinks that the rumor is a real deal. Surely, he must be thinking that I’m an unscrupulous person too.
“Uncle Evan,” the bubbly Maya called out sweetly. She had a fond impression of Evan.
With a straight face, Evan lowered his eyes to look at her. He was enraged by her presence for it reminded him that she was Rocky’s child.
He then stared at Nicole coldly and did not notice the disappointment on Maya’s face.
“You’re not allowed to see Kyle and Juan anymore.”
“Why not?”
“Because I don’t want my sons to grow up under the influence of a woman like you, Mrs. Yan.”
Mrs. Yan, what an awkward title. Should I explain to him? If I don’t, I might not get to see Kyle and Juan in the future.
“Mr. Seet, this is all a huge misunderstanding. Rocky and I are not in that kind of relationship.”
Evan constricted his eyes. She’s addressing me as Mr. Seet while calling other man amiably by his first name! Well, it’s obvious who’s closer to her heart.
“I’m not interested in your relationship and I don’t want to hear anything about your dirty business. I just want you to remember my words!” Evan ended the conversation decisively and headed to the kindergarten.
Nicole looked at his back and dazed. My dirty business? Right, so I’m just a shameless woman to him but why does it hurt so much? It’s unbearable…
“Mommy, you promised to pick Kyle and Juan up this weekend,” Maya stated while shaking Nicole’s hands.
“That’s right, Mommy. He can say whatever he wants but I’m sure Kyle and Juan will want to see you more,” Nina added.
Nicole hesitated. The kiddos would want to follow me but Evan will never allow that to happen. I guess I should not show up to avoid putting the kids on the spot.
Snapping out of her daze, she held her daughters’ hands and made a U-turn.
“Mommy, aren’t we going to see Juan?”
