Juan sighed. “Ms. Sheila was not home. She left the Muir family three days after Uncle Davin was gone. She probably went to Y City with him because her family did not know where she was either.”
“After Great-grandpa died, Uncle Davin did not return, and he even switched off his phone. Who knows where he went?” Nina said before she sighed.
“Then, who did you look for?”
She was certain that Juan had found another way. Otherwise, he would not come home.
Sure enough, Juan explained, “I secretly went to Daddy’s company and met Uncle John nearby. He went to K Nation with Mommy before, so he knew a few people from the estate. He said he would find a way to inform Grandpa to save Mommy.”
In response, the children let out a breath of relief, knowing that John was willing to help them.
Maya blinked her large eyes, deep in thought. Will Uncle John really help us and get Grandpa to save Mommy?
“Alright, let’s prepare to go for dinner. Daddy will be home soon.”
“Will that bad woman complain to Daddy?”
“She can do that for all I care. At most, we will get punished by Daddy,” Juan sneered like he was unbothered.
“Juan, don’t worry. If Daddy wants to hit you, tell him that it was my idea. Besides, Daddy doesn’t hit girls,” Nina suggested boldly.
“Okay.”
Juan nodded. Then, the quadruplets headed to the dining hall.
As soon as they went down the stairs, they could hear Susan complaining to Evan about their behavior today.
After complaining, she even said, “What if something bad happens to them the next time they sneak out like this? I’m worried. Besides, it is not good to be lying at such a young age. Evan, please don’t misunderstand. I do not blame them, but they are children after all, and I worry for them.”
Evan fell silent, not expecting them to be so daring.
Lying is bad to begin with, but they even had the guts to say that Nina fell into the pond. How could they treat something serious like that as a joke?
When the time is right and Levant has left, I will let Nicole out. Why did they have to take action into their own hands?
