Wendy was stunned by his crude answer.
She had initially wanted to ask Sebastian if he was mistaken. The children’s mother was already there, yet he had asked another woman to accompany them for the trip.
However, at that moment, Sasha had already passed the suitcases and the kids over to her.
“Wendy, send them over.”
“But…”
“It’s fine.” Sasha shook her head, trying her best to make herself look nonchalant. Then, she shoved the handle of the suitcase into Wendy’s hand.
Naturally, she would be fine.
She would have to confront this issue sooner or later; it was just a matter of time.
Sasha turned after telling Wendy what to do, preparing to go back into the house.
“No! I don’t want Ms. Rocke! I want Mommy! I have Mommy here, so why do I need another woman to accompany me for my trip?”
Suddenly, Vivian started yelling loudly in Sebastian’s arms. She shot a furious glance at Roxanne before struggling to break free from her father’s arms.
“Come back, Vivi!” When her father saw her acting like that, he tried to grab her furiously.
Although Vivian usually looked adorable and blur, she ran extremely fast at such a critical juncture. In a short while, she had caught up with Sasha.
“Mommy, don’t abandon us! If you aren’t going, I won’t go too!”
Vivian hugged Sasha’s legs and burst into tears.
When Sasha saw that, she quickly squatted and hugged her daughter tight. Her heart ached as if daggers were piercing it.
“Don’t cry. I’m here, aren’t I? I won’t leave. I’ll wait for you at home, okay? Go with Daddy and Ms. Rocke. When you come back, I’ll cook some delicious food for you.”
“No!”
Vivian was like her mother’s most loyal fan. No matter what Sasha said or how she tried to convince her, the little girl would not change her mind.
Sasha was speechless.
Just when she was at a loss for what to do, Matteo and Ian, who were initially standing beside Wendy, immediately ran toward Sasha.
“Yeah, we won’t go either!”
“We won’t go!”
The children’s minds changed simultaneously within a few seconds.
Sebastian was so furious that his face fell. Just when he was about to stride over and drag the three kids away, Wendy quickly intervened. “Mr. Hayes, if that’s the case, just bring Ms. Wand along.”
