“Mom, I’ll bring her back after the wedding.”
“No! There’s no way I’m letting you marry that woman!”
“Mom, the whole world already knows now. We have to hold the ceremony tomorrow.”
“You… Evan, have you gone insane?”
“Mom, I’ll explain everything to you when I get back.” Evan then promptly ended the call.
Sophia stared at her blank phone screen. “Oh God, what have I done wrong? Was having Davin not
enough punishment? How could Evan… Why would he do something like that?”
Davin was rendered speechless as he frowned intensely on the side.
Mom, why are you saying such things!
The four children were walking in when they heard their grandmother’s cry.
Juan ran over to Sophia. “Grandma, are you okay?”
Seeing the children only made Sophia feel even more depressed.
What’s going to happen to these kids after Evan marries Susan? I can’t let that wedding happen!
“Quick, you four go and get ready. Uncle Davin and Ms. Sheila are going to bring you guys to see your
Daddy and Mommy.”
“Mom, I can bring them on my own. Why is Sheep coming along?”
“I’d never leave the kids with you alone! She’s definitely going with you.”
At that, Davin went silent. Why does it have to be Sheep, then? Why can’t it be someone else?
His displeasure was written all over his face.
Maya held out her chubby hands, hiding all but two fingers. Her crystal clear eyes blinked repeatedly as
she looked at Sophia.
“Grandma, we don’t need to go. Daddy will bring Mommy back in two days.”
Two more days. By then, she would have counted all ten of her fingers.
She had always thought that her parents would come once she finished counting her fingers.
Sophia looked at the innocent children and let out a heavy sigh. She had no idea how she should break
the news to the kids.
The sharp Juan was able to pick up something from the way she was acting. He asked, “Grandma, did
something happen?”
Sophia held his hand in hers, not knowing where to start.
She raised her head and looked at Davin in silent questioning. Do I tell them?
Davin understood what was on his mother’s mind almost instantly. He figured it would be best if the
kids knew since they needed their help to help stop what’s happening. Thus, he squatted down and
slowly explained everything to the children.
Kyle turned furious. “You’re lying! Daddy would never marry someone else!”
“There’s no way! Mommy is amazing! Daddy won’t ever leave her for someone else!” Nina was in
disbelief too.
Juan, however, was quiet. He felt like he was in a weird dream. Did I hear that right?
Maya teared up instantly. If Daddy marries another woman, I will have a stepmom. ”Daddy can’t marry
anyone else! Daddy has to marry Mommy!”
Seeing the kids agitated like that, Davin scooped Maya into his arms and wiped her tears away.
“Don’t be upset. It hasn’t happened yet. So, whether your Daddy marries another woman or not will
depend on whether you all can stop him.”
The children looked at each other. Even though they had no idea why their father was doing such a
thing, they were all very upset about it.
“Let’s go and stop him right now!” Juan exclaimed.
“I’ll go get ready!” Nina chimed.
Kyle shot up the stairs without a word.
Maya wiped her tears away with her hands and marched upstairs as well.
Soon after, the children were ready to go. Davin immediately brought them to the airport.
Sheila was already waiting for them there.
“Ms. Sheila!”
Maya was excited to see the woman and rushed over.
Sheila got down and picked the young girl up, comforting her when she saw the latter’s bloodshot eyes.
Davin stole a glance at Sheila. The last time we at the Seet Residence, things did not end well. How do
I even talk to her?
He had always been casual and relaxed, but the current Davin Seet was standing on the side, stiff as a
pole.
