Naturally, lan was aware of that.
That was why he never said anything.
Instead, he stood there like a cool pop star and waited patiently.
When his mom finished dressing his baby brother, he walked over.
"What's wrong, Little lan? Why are you so quiet? Did your Aunt Sabrina mess with you today?"
"You think she is capable of doing so?" scoffed lan as he lay in his mom's arms.
Amora understood what he was saying right away.
That makes sense.
lan grew up with the Ronin.
Sabrina would not have developed a habit of running away from other kids if she manages to mess with him.
Amora didn't take the kids home after they had finished putting their clothes on.
Instead, they waited for Kane to clock off.
It's almost time to go home, anyway.
"Mommy, are you going to go help Daddy?"
"Huh?"
Amora was mopping the floor at the time.She turned around and stared at her eldest son in bewilderment.
"With his work, I mean.Daddy has been so busy lately, Mommy, and he didn't even have time to eat.You can go to his office and help him out.That way, we'd be able to head home earlier."
lan was slightly more mature and was assigning tasks to his own mother.
What no one knew was that he actually had an ulterior motive and a tiny secret.He caught his father's strange expression earlier.
No one else saw it, but Kane was holding the kid at the time, and lan was observant, so he noticed it.
Daddy is a germaphobe just like me, so he must've detected the smell on Mommy.
That was why he did all that.
He refused to let any more misunderstandings arise between his parents.
As suspected, Amora was tempted, and she was tempted.
"But...I know nothing about his job.How can I help him?"
"Dummy Mommy, you are his wife.He will be happy if you're by his side.You just need to do stuff like get him tea or put his documents away."
Matteo chimed in as well.He stared at his mommy like he was annoyed about how slow she was.
Amora was speechless.
Uhm, is that advice legit? She was a little shy, but she couldn't deny that she was tempted to try it out.
I don't think I've ever tried doing any of that in front of him.
With that, Amora decided to follow her sons’ advice.lan caught that, so he quickly got a new outfit from the closet and asked his mom to change into it.
His excuse, naturally, was that she dirtied her clothes when she helped them get dressed.
Amora's face blushed red.
She never suspected anything when she left for Kane's office.
All three tiny rascals stared until their mommy left.
Then, all three of them sighed a breath of relief together.
However, as they spoke, a voice popped out and redirected their attention.
"Are you id*ots? What kind of a place do you think this is? It's Ronin Corporation! Do you think that, given her skills, she'd be able to squeeze her way in here without some help?"
Silence.
It was a surprise to everyone.
A few seconds was all it took to get everyone to shut up.
That's right.
We have got to be id*ots for missing something so obvious.If our boss truly abandoned her and didn't want to see her, she would never be able to stay in Ronin Corporation.
Hel*, she couldn't even stay in the city! There was only one valid explanation.
Kane had been in love with her the entire time and never abandoned her.
F*ck!
When Amora slipped into the office, she looked up and saw that the top managers of the company were all in there.
Everyone, including the man sitting behind the desk, was staring at her.
Amora felt so awkward that she wanted to dig a hole and hide in there.
"Sorry, I, uh, I'm just here to get the kids’ toy.They're a little bored," lied Amora as she smiled stiffly.
In her mind, however, she was imagining herself spanking the two little rascals who gave her such terrible suggestions.
"You boys continue with your meeting.I'll leave now so I don't disturb you" added Amora.
She decided to flee as quickly as she could.
