“You’d better open your eyes right now, or you’ll be sorry!” Nicole said and spanked him on his bottom.
Juan slowly opened his eyes and looked at Nicole. “Mommy? What happened? My head feels dizzy, and I can’t remember anything…”
Hah! Still trying to pretend, eh?
“That’s okay. Mommy’s gonna take you back to Wicked Palace in a bit. You’ll remember everything after I lock you up in there.”
What? Did I hear that right?
“I don’t wanna go there! I wanna be with Daddy! Will you stay with us, Mommy?”
Nicole let out a sigh and looked him in the eye. “Juan, things are really complicated between Mommy and Daddy. You kids shouldn’t meddle with adult affairs like these, okay? You can give Daddy a call and have him pick you up if you want to go back with him.”
Looks like it won’t be easy to solve the problem between Mommy and Daddy!
“Do you like Mr. Levant, Mommy? You really don’t like Daddy anymore?”
Nicole gave him a pat on the head. “You’re too young to understand this, Juan. Now, hurry up and put your shirt on.”
Adult relationships really are complicated! Mommy used to like Daddy a lot, so I thought we would all be together forever… I can’t believe everything has changed!
Juan nodded in agreement and pouted as he put his shirt back on.
“So, Nina painted those wounds to stop the wedding?” John asked Damien.
Damien nodded. “That’s right! There’s no way those kids could get hurt with us watching over them!”
“Why were you guys late, then? Do you know how worried we were when none of you answered our calls? We were this close to kidnapping the bride!” John pressed on.
