"Hello?"
Someone answered very quickly, much to Vivian's delight.
"Matt, it's me, Vivi.Did you miss me?"
"Yes, I did, Vivi.How have you been? lan and I were worried when you didn't call for an entire day."
The moment the call connected, Matt complained incessantly.
Huh? An entire day? Didn't I call them yesterday? With the phone in her hand, Vivian looked puzzled.
Nevertheless, she was glad that her brothers missed her.
Pouting her lips, she ranted, "That's all because of Mommy.Over the last few days, she was at home instead of working in the office.Hence, I didn't manage to give you guys a Call."
Mommy's not working? Matteo was stunned when he heard it.
"Why isn't Mommy at work? Is it because she knows Daddy is engaged to Ms.Rocke..."
Before Matteo could finish, lan sprang to his feet and cupped his brother's mouth.
"Are you crazy? Why did you tell Vivi about it?"
"Mmm..."
When it dawned upon him that he shouldn't have let the cat out of the bag, Matteo shut his mouth.
Fortunately, Vivian wasn't someone attentive.
Hence, she didn't pick up on what Matteo had said.
"Matt, I heard Mommy instruct Uncle Lance to buy Grandpa's house."
"Really?"
The brothers were ecstatic at the news.
If she intends to buy Grandpa's house, does it mean she's planning to return soon? Both boys turned excited at the idea.
However, when they suddenly heard the roar of a car from downstairs, their expressions changed.
After reminding Vivian to take care of herself, they frantically ended the call on their smartwatch.
A few minutes later, Kane and Roxanne entered the house.
"What are both of you doing? Why do you look flustered?" Kane had sharp observational skills.
The moment he saw his sons come down, he noticed that they looked out of sorts.
lan's lips were sealed.
Racking his brains, Matteo explained, "It's nothing really.
We were just playing chess.
By the way, Daddy, why did you come home so suddenly? Don't you need to work today?"
