Only you in my love novel Chapter 808

Holding a child's hand on either side of her, Nina guided her children downstairs. She came across Helen, who seemed to be in an anxious hurry.

"Helen, where are you going?"

Hearing her name, Helen stopped and looked at Nina. John was nowhere in sight.

"I'm going to the kitchen! Mrs. Shi, why isn't Mr. Shi with you?"

"He's a little tired from last night. I let him sleep in."

"Mr. Shi hasn't gotten up yet? It seems I need to make nutritious soup for both of them." Helen flashed a knowing smile. "Mrs. Shi, please excuse me.

I'll head to the kitchen now." And with that, she hurried off.

Nina cocked her head to the side, wondering what had just happened, then shrugged it off and took the children to the dining room.

When the children were seated, Van looked at his mother inquisitively. "Mom, is Dad tired from work?"

Nina nodded. "Yes, he is busier at this time of year."

"Oh, I see." He couldn't seem to understand why his father would be busier at this time of the year, but he did know he wanted to help. "Mom, what can I do for Dad?" he asked seriously.

Nina smiled at her son dotingly. "I'm glad you asked, Van. You and your brother should eat and sleep well, and do well in school. That's what you can do to help me and your dad for now. We can talk about other ways you can help once you're older."

"Why do we have to wait until we grow up?" Don pitched in. "Van and I are capable now."

"Then let's wait until you are more capable," Nina said gently. "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. Your dad, Leon, and James drank too much yesterday, so they're having a hard time getting up today."

Last night, Leon had sent Michelle back to her room. While he couldn't stop himself from kissing her, he was able to stop himself before slamming into her.

Because Michelle was drunk, she was in a confused state of mind.

He just couldn't bring himself to have sex with when she was like this. Instead, he coaxed her into sleeping before leaving.

Then, he went out and drank with John and James. He had thought this would calm down his lust.

However, the opposite proved true. The more he drank, the more he wanted to be with Michelle. He had no choice but to get himself completely and utterly drunk.

After all, men wouldn't be able to get laid if they were drunk.

The three men all got drunk. Alone, Leon staggered towards his room to get some rest.

Worried for her brother, Nina secretly followed Leon upstairs. There, she found him stopping at the door of Michelle's room for a few seconds before heading back to his own room. However, as soon as he placed his hand on the doorknob, he abandoned it and went back to Michelle's door.

He stayed there for a few seconds before shaking his head and going back to his own door.

It went like this for some time. He kept going back and forth between Michelle's door and his.

Nina couldn't count how many times he went back and forth and just watched her poor brother, stifling back her laughter. If she had only brought her cell phone, she could've taken photos to use for blackmail.

She didn't leave until she saw Leon enter his own room and close the door. Then she went back to her husband to help him back to their room, only to find out that he wasn't drunk at all. He had just been pretending.

Because he had tried so hard to pretend he was drunk, she decided not to call him out on his bluff.

She simply took the bottle of wine and made the acting real instead. After a couple more drinks, the man who pretended to be drunk actually became drunk.

So what Nina had said was true; her husband was still in bed because he had drunk so much the night prior.

But the truth was, she was happy he was still in bed. He had been so busy lately, he barely had the time to get proper sleep.

Nina said to the children, "Let your dad sleep a little longer."

"Well, drinking will cause a headache. Ask Dad to stop drinking," Van said wisely. "Do we need to give him some medicine?"

"No need, he'll be fine. Just let him sleep a little longer," said Nina.

"Eh?"

Don pointed at the person playing outside. "Aunt Michelle was also drunk yesterday. How come she doesn't have a headache? And how come she got up early?

Dad must be really bad at drinking."

The disgusted expression of Don's face made Nina burst into laughter.

Van followed his brother's gaze outside and saw a snowman wearing a bright red hat. "Snowman!" he cried excitedly.

"Where? Where is it?" Don craned his neck to look.

"Look there, Aunt Michelle is making snowmen!"

"Wow, really? Snowmen! Let's make snowmen, too!" Don happily took his brother's hand and tried to drag him out of his seat.

The two kids ran as fast as they could on their short, stubby legs. Nina had dressed them up in thick clothes that morning, so they looked like two round rolling balls of cuteness.

Nina followed after them, worried her two sons would stumble and actually end up rolling into the snow.

"Slow down! It's slippery outside. Be careful not to fall," she cautioned them.
