You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 768

Trying his best not to smile, Leon allowed Michelle to push him out of the room.

"Do you really want me to leave?"

"Just hurry up!" Michelle wasn't in the mood to joke around. She was getting so nervous that her hands were starting to shake. With all her might, she pushed him out to the yard where Nine suddenly appeared from out of nowhere, stopping them.

As if on cue, Elaine also came out of the kitchen with the last dish. Upon seeing her daughter and Leon together in the yard, she stopped for a moment and stared. She could see that Michelle was trying her best to cover Leon with her petite frame.

"Oh, you're back, Mimi. But are you and Leon planning to go out? Come and eat first."

With Nine blocking the way and her mother behind them, Michelle knew that there was no way out of this one. Her heart felt like stopping out of anxiety. By then, she had almost forgotten about the two kids on the couch. She also didn't notice how natural her mother sounded.

She whispered to Leon, "I told you she won't let you leave as soon as she sees you. Didn't you promise me you wouldn't come in?"

It was then that Leon turned around to see Elaine putting the dish down on the table. He took the opportunity to bend over to Michelle's ear and bit it gently.

It was as if her entire body was zapped by electricity. Michelle hastily turned around. Her eyes were as wide as saucers as she stared at him.

'How dare Leon!'

But then, his low and masculine voice purred to her ears.

"Don't be afraid, Michelle. Nobody saw anything. Also, I didn't come here alone. I brought Van and Don with me. Didn't you notice them? They missed you so much that they practically dragged me here to play with you."

With that, Leon straightened up, raising his chin as he pointed at his nephews.

Michelle turned around, finally noticing the two boys heading towards her.

"Aunt Michelle." Don threw his tiny arms around her waist, raising his head up to look at her. His eyes twinkled like stars in the sky. "Aunt Michelle, you have so many candies in your home. They're all delicious. Can I live here? My grandpa and parents won't let me eat candies back at home."

Leon smiled sheepishly. "They're just afraid that you might get cavities from too many candies."

"I don't care. I just want candies!" Don shook his head and stomped his feet like a spoiled child.

"Aunt Michelle! You're finally here. We've been waiting for you for a long time," Van said as soon as he reached her. He looked up at her, smiling widely.

Michelle knew that children could never lie. Just looking at their sweet identical faces dispersed her anxiety and replaced it with tender happiness.

"Wow! Come here and let me hug you two." Michelle squatted down and spread her arms wide. The two children cuddled up to her, letting her arms surround them as they laughed brightly.

As Leon watched the three of them hug each other, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous. He tried to hide it by walking inside.

When Michelle finally let the two boys go, they walked hand in hand, following him inside.

Excitedly, Don began asking her questions. "Guess who I am, Aunt Michelle. Can you tell us apart?"

Elaine overheard Don's question, making her feel confused. "That's right, Michelle. Can you tell? They asked me before, but I couldn't tell them apart. They look so much alike. It also doesn't help that they dress the same."

"Yes, I do. You're Don, aren't you?" Michelle said.

Don pouted since she guessed correctly. He retorted, "You're wrong."

"No, you're Don. I'm sure of it because you like hugging people the most. In fact, you always hug other people's legs," she said firmly.

"Humph!" Don angrily pushed her hand away from him.

His reaction just confirmed that Michelle guessed right. Surprised, Elaine said, "You really know them well. But can you still recognize him if he doesn't hug you?"

Michelle shook her head and said, "No, I don't think I can. Van, how can we differentiate you two from each other?"

Van shook his head. "You should figure it out yourself. My uncle once told me that people should learn to think independently. That's why I can't tell you."

"Okay." Michelle thought about it for a while until she finally came up with an idea. "How about I put a name tag on each of you. This way, everyone can tell who's who."
