The three kids nodded at her solemnly.

Just then, Yoda brought Maya back. He did not enter the room nor did he spare a glance at Nicole.

Wearing a poker-faced expression, he handed Maya to her and left.

Nicole was hit by a pang of sadness in her heart when she saw him leaving.

She did not tell him the truth just because she wanted to perfect her acting. Also, she thought Yoda

would be able to see through her acting when time passed.

It was not her intention to lie to him at all!

Perhaps, Yoda had lost some of his common sense as he was simply too worried about her. He totally

believed she had really lost her mind because he trusted and cared about her too much.

Because of that, his anxiety and worry got the better of his logical sense.

Nicole muttered under her breath, “Are you too dumb to see through my acting or my acting skill is just

too good?”

“Nicole, what did you just say?”

“Nothing.”

With a bitter smile, Nicole carried Maya back to the room.

Back in his room, Yoda lay on the bed thinking about how Nicole had been pretending to be an idiot all

this while.

The moment he saw how Nicole was reduced to a mere shadow of her old self, he was both shocked

and heartbroken.

He found it hard to breathe as though his heart was being squeezed by an invisible large hand.

“Yes, you’ve successfully shown how great an actress you can be. But, how could you fool me, out of

everyone else? Don’t you know that I’ve been worrying about you a lot?”

During the past few days, there was not a moment he had not tried to come up with ways to cure her

condition.

Suddenly, he thought of a piece of advice he received some time before this – stay away from good-

looking women because the more beautiful they were, the better a liar they were.

Seems like I have to remain rational whenever I deal with Nicole in the future.

She’s a good-looking woman and she’s also great liar.

The next morning, Maya heard a commotion from outside their room when she was about to go comb

her hair.

Juan threw Nicole a curious glance. “Mommy, would you please check who’s that?”

Nicole took a peek at the corridor outside through the window. When she saw it was Daphne, she

immediately reminded the kids. “The bad woman is here. Look, Mommy is going to act like an idiot

again, so please remember not to blow my cover!”

It’s the bad woman!

It’s Daphne!

Ha! She’s here at just the right time! Let’s see how I’m going to teach her a lesson!

“Mommy, don’t worry because we will protect you!”

Just then, Daphne walked into the room together with two maids. She glanced at Nicole who was

staring blankly ahead on the bed, and then at the kids sitting around her.

“Early this morning I was told that Levant’s brought several kids to stay here. Seems like the

information is accurate then.”

Are those kids related to Levant? Could they be the illegitimate children he has with Nicole?

“Who are you kids?” Looking disgusted, Daphne yelled at the kids impatiently.

Juan cast a contemptuous glance at her before introducing himself, “People who know me call me

Satan.”

Daphne shot him a supercilious glance in response. I’m sure this boy isn’t Levant’s kid because Levant

won’t have a child as frivolous as this boy!

She turned to Kyle instead. “What’s your name?”

Maintaining an impassive face, Kyle glanced around and asked slyly, “Is anyone talking to me?”

Nina, whose arms were crossed in front of her chest in a smug manner, replied, “Nope. But I just heard

a dog barking somewhere!”

“How dare you!” I can’t believe that rascal just referred to me as a dog!

She moved her eyes which were brimming with fury past the three kids and then landed on Maya.

Blinking her eyes which sparkled like the stars, Maya looked harmless and adorable.

“Where are you from?”

Maya pondered over her question and answered with a wide grin, “From the plane.”

Daphne snorted impatiently. “I mean, where’s your home?”

“My home is at my hometown.” Maya stuck out her tongue and answered matter-of-factly.

Daphne was left speechless. Are these kids a bunch of idiots?

Daphne examined the kids thoroughly and came to the conclusion that there was something wrong

with their minds.

“Are they your kids?” She turned around and aimed that question at Nicole.

Yet, Nicole pretended she did not understand her question by staring at the ceiling dazedly in silence.

As Daphne failed to get Nicole’s attention, she strode forward and got nearer to her.

“Hey, are they your kids?”

Nicole nodded at her, but quickly shook her head again and started giggling foolishly at her.

You wanna know the answer? What a shame, because I’m not telling you!

“Is Levant their father?”

Damn it. So, this is the reason why she came to visit so early in the morning. I can’t believe she’s

having suspicion of me having kids with Levant before. Come on! All I can say is that she certainly has

a very fertile imagination.

Nicole ignored her question. In a thick-witted manner, she started fiddling with her fingers and reciting

random numbers.

“One, two, five, three…”
