Levant felt a huge weight was lifted off his shoulder.
Things would be great if Evan never existed at all and if I were the father of these kids.
With that thought in mind, Levant blurted out, “You guys will have a new Daddy soon.”
A new Daddy?
The kids rolled their eyes and pursed their lips in repulsion as soon as they heard him.
Nina turned around and snapped, “We don’t need a new Daddy!”
“Exactly! Evan Seet is the one and only Daddy we have!”
John was pleased with the kids’ reaction. I suppose Mr. Seet will be able to rest in peace now seeing how much the kids love him.
Levant stopped arguing with the kids. You kids have no say in this. It will be up to Nicole whether you kids are getting a new Daddy or not!
By the time he married Nicole, he would naturally become their new Daddy. There was nothing they could do but accept him.
When they reached the room Nicole stayed, Levant pointed at the European-style door and said, “Your mommy is inside.”
The kids made a dash toward the door like horses from free rein.
Juan and Kyle reached the door first and rapped on it.
Meanwhile, Nicole frowned when she heard someone knocking on the door. She stuck her sleepy head out from the blanket and wondered who was visiting her at that hour.
After some contemplation, she decided not to answer the door and let the person knock as long as he or she wanted. After all, everyone thought she was an idiot and no one expected idiots to know how to answer the door.
With that, she tucked herself back in and continued to slumber with ease.
“Why isn’t Mommy answering the door?”
“Has anything bad happened to Mommy?”
Juan and Kyle exchanged worried looks. Then, they raised one of their legs in unison and started kicking the door in an attempt to knock it open.
Nina, who just reached the door, joined in too.
“This door is too sturdy and we aren’t strong enough to make it budge. What should we do now?”
Just as Nina said that, Maya finally caught up with them, looking breathless.
“Guys, get out of my way. It’s time to use my undefeatable Maya Punch!”
Nina took a step back from Maya without hesitation, knowing how powerful Maya Punch could be. She had fallen victim to it several times before and it managed to cause her quite a severe back pain every time.
Kyle reminded Maya, “Your hands are gotta hurt a lot if you punch the door.”
