Evan suddenly realized that he had misunderstood as it dawned on him that Nicole asked him to come back not because she had missed him, but because she wanted to prank him!
Initially, he wanted to put down the cutlery and leave but he had promised to accompany the kids for a walk. I can’t break my promise, can I?
After saying that he was done, he walked to the living room to wait for the kids there.
“Why does Daddy eat so little?”
“Should we give Daddy an apple? I saw a big apple in the kitchen with the size of my face.”
Nodding his head, Kyle ran to the kitchen to get the apple and brought it to Evan.
“Daddy, this apple is very sweet. Try it.”
Evan, who had been starving after a whole day of work, looked at the cleaned apple and took it.
“Go and eat. After that, I’ll take you for a walk.”
“Okay.”
Kyle gave him a look of sympathy as he nodded and walked to the dining room.
Evan took a bite of the apple. While he was chewing with gusto, he suddenly heard Nicole’s voice as she threw a punch toward his face. Being caught off guard, he saw the apple in his hand fall to the ground.
He glanced at the poor apple lying on the ground and then shot an angry look at Nicole.
“This apple is getting on my nerves. I really can’t help but want to punch it. Sorry,” said Nicole furiously.
Is the apple the one getting on her nerves or me?
Evan stared at her with a cold look on his face and commented seriously, “You’re so good at upsetting others.”
Proudly accepting his remark, she flashed him a brazen smile. “Thanks, Mr. Seet.”
When the kids came out of the dining room, they asked Evan to take them for a walk.
He got up and walked past Nicole as he gritted his teeth and said, “I’ll make you pay when I come back!”
After speaking, he walked out of the living room with the four kids.
Feeling unresigned, Nicole glared at him as he walked away.
“I’m not scared of you. Do you think you can frighten me by threatening to feed me to the fish? You wish!”
