While Kyle remained expressionless, Juan nodded in agreement.
“We should give Uncle Davin some time. Every magic trick takes time to prepare.”
“You understand people well, Juan. It’s no magic trick, but it’ll definitely be more interesting than one.”
Juan’s eyes widened in curiosity.
Suddenly, a pleasant ringtone sounded. Davin glanced at his phone and realized Nicole was calling him.
With Evan around, he wasn’t sure whether to pick up.
The phone continued to ring, and Evan noticed how Davin kept stealing glances at him from time to time. Hence, he grabbed the phone out of curiosity and saw it was Nicole.
“Why aren’t you picking up?”
Davin didn’t answer. Well, I can’t have Nicole mentioned something you shouldn’t know about, such as who Maya’s and Nina’s birth parents are.
Seeing how he smiled while remaining silent, Sheila was curious too.
“Who’s that calling?”
“My sister-in-law.”
“Which?”
Davin glanced at Evan as a response.
“She’s our Mommy,” Juan explained in his angelic voice.
Sheila suddenly felt odd. She glanced at Sylphiette and coughed lightly.
So she’s Evan’s kept woman. It was no surprise that Davin had berated her a while ago, then.
Sylphiette instantly felt utterly embarrassed. She turned to Evan, expecting him to explain who he was going to marry.
Yet, the man said nothing, seemingly agreeing with Juan and Davin.
This made Sylphiette extremely displeased.
“You shouldn’t let Davin call Nicole ‘sister-in-law’, Evan. I’m the one who—”
“Answer the phone.”
Evan cut her off with three simple words.
