Actually, they would soon be able to figure this out without even asking Evan, because Nicole and
Levant’s wedding date was just a few days away.
The next day.
John got up and stretched. Without even combing his messy hair, he went into the living room. He was
instantly shocked.
“You guys… did you guys appear out of thin air?”
Kyle rolled his eyes at him and said, “You’re the one who appeared out of thin air. We flew here.”
“That’s right, Uncle Lindt. We flew here, and we’ve just arrived,” Juan said.
John looked at the three of them in excitement.
Last night he had said that it would be great if the children were here. Little did he know the children
would actually show up early the next morning!
He was absolutely ecstatic. As he looked at them with joy, however, he suddenly felt that something was
odd.
Upon closer inspection, John noticed that the three of them were standing together, whereas Maya was
seated alone on the sofa eating a piece of bread. She looked out of place and he could sense
awkwardness in the air.
“You guys haven’t seen Maya for the past few days. Do you guys miss her? Come here, Maya.”
Nina snorted, “Don’t let her come over here. She and Daddy came to K Nation without telling us, so we
are at odds with her.”
Maya looked innocent and her big clear eyes sparkled. “Nina, it’s Daddy who brought me here. You
should be at odds with him, not me.”
Maya then opened her mouth and took an angry bite out of the bread.
It was unexpected for Maya to put the blame on Evan.
Nina was startled. “Then why didn’t you give us a call? We are sisters; we should be sticking together.”
Maya had never been able to outspeak Nina. With the bread in her hand, she couldn’t be bothered to
argue with Nina. Maya chewed on the bread and said, “I’ll give you a call next time, Nina.”
“Next time? Do you think that evil Daddy will secretly bring you here again without us?”
Maya was stunned, then she nodded vigorously.
“Daddy said that I’m the best kid. He even hugs me to sleep at night. He will definitely take me with him.”
Upon hearing that, Nina became increasingly enraged and shouted, “When we get back home, I’ll do a
DNA test to see if Daddy is my biological father.”
Juan looked at her intently and said, “You’ve done it before. You even did it during a live broadcast. It’s
been proven that you and Maya are Daddy’s biological children.”
“Then why is Daddy so biased?”
Suddenly, there were sounds of footsteps; it was Evan walking down the staircase.
He had heard what Nina said just now. Calmly, he walked straight to Nina and said to her, “Daddy’s not
biased. I treat all of you equally.”
“Then why did you bring Maya only, and not us?”
“Because Maya needs Daddy’s care.”
Nina rolled her eyes in annoyance.
John looked at Nina, then he leaned over and said to her in a low voice, “Maya suffered some injuries
earlier on. She may look fine physically but she’s still suffering mentally from the trauma. Mr. Seet took
her by his side to take care of her because of her insecurities. You’ve got to be a little bit more
understanding.”
Glancing at Maya, Nina’s heart ached upon recalling how pitiful her sister looked when she was abused.
Nina snorted and mumbled, “Anyway, I still think Daddy’s biased.”
“Nina, Daddy’s not biased. Daddy actually planned to bring home some gifts for you guys.”
Hearing what Maya had said, Nina’s anger dissipated somewhat. She huffed a puff of air and said
nothing more.
At that time, Susan came walking out of her bedroom. She had gone to place the luggage in the room.
“I’ve unpacked the luggage. Why don’t Nina and Maya sleep with me? I’ll take good care of them.”
Maya became frightened when she heard that. If she were to sleep with Susan, would Susan beat her at
night? Will she pierce needles all over my body until I look like a cactus?
Just the thought of it was horrifying enough for her.
She quickly stood up and ran to Evan’s side. Not daring to look at Susan, she hugged Evan’s thigh tightly
and hid behind her father.
