“Nicole, you’re here!” Davin greeted her warmly.
“I’m here to see Joy.”
“Nicole, Joy is a bright kid. She even did us a big favor yesterday!”
At that moment, Nicole was stunned and curious. How much can one kid help?
“Really? What did Joy do?”
Right then, Joy’s face was flushed with glee as she recalled how Davin and Luke praised and thanked
her for the help.
Davin told her about everything that happened at Levant Winery that day.
Oh, I see now. Joy has successfully paired Levant and Tiffany up!
“I had no idea that Joy was such a bright little fairy. How she pretended to have a stomachache; her
acting was on point! It had allowed Levant and Tiffany to have some time alone.”
Upon hearing that, Nicole couldn’t make any sense of it.
“What does Joy faking a stomachache have to do with them having alone time?”
Davin then proceeded to explain the situation clearly. He took the kids to Levant Winery for a nice meal
yesterday. After eating, the kids proposed to go to the suburbs to play, and everyone went together.
Just when everyone was having the best time, Davin saw Levant passing a bottle of water to Tiffany.
Noticing how attentive he was, Davin decided to let them be.
Shortly after, the children were pondering how to give them a chance to talk privately. Therefore, Joy
suddenly clutched her stomach and shouted in pain. Davin instantly seized the opportunity and
volunteered to drive her to the hospital. Zayden and Luke, on the other hand, insisted on following,
saying that their stomachs were uncomfortable as well. Davin immediately drove the kids to the
hospital, leaving Levant and Tiffany in the suburbs.
“The point is that we drove to the hospital. Since my car was no longer available, Levant and Tiffany
were forced to remain in the suburbs. It should have given them enough time to talk about love and
feelings.”
“But what if they called a cab?” Sheila asked.
“No way. Levant isn’t stupid. He wouldn’t miss out a chance like that.”
“What if Tiffany called for a cab instead?” Sheila asked again.
“That won’t happen. Tiffany likes Levant, so she would seize the opportunity to spend the time with
him!”
At that moment, Luke, who was standing on the side, chimed in, “I called my mommy yesterday to ask.
She and Daddy only returned to the winery in the evening. They were together all afternoon.” After
speaking, he gleamed brightly.
“If it hadn’t been Joy faking a stomachache, they wouldn’t have this golden opportunity to spend time
together! Kudos to Joy!” Davin then gave Joy a big thumbs up.
“Haha, stop it! You’re making me shy!” The smile on Joy’s face widened instantly.
“No, you deserve it! You’re way smarter than me. I wouldn’t have come up with that.”
“Joy, how did you think of that?” Nicole looked at her, feeling shocked.
Joy then fixed her gaze on Nicole and responded earnestly, “Mommy, I heard Luke mention this phrase
—drastic times call for drastic measures. I had no idea what that meant, so he explained that we had to
make something up in order to create an opportunity. That’s how I came up with the idea.”
“That is something my mommy taught me. I didn’t think she’d pick it up so quickly. You’re very bright,”
Luke said as he stared at Joy.
Nicole patted Joy’s head and uttered, “It looks like I have to teach you some life hacks too! Otherwise,
your intelligence would go to waste!”
“Yes. You have to teach this bright kid more. Sign her up for some talent classes or something,”
suggested Davin.
Sheila then glared at Davin. “Talent class? Don’t pressure the kid.”
Nicole agreed with Sheila after hearing that. “Joy is still young, so homeschooling might suffice. We’ll
see about the talent class in a few years. I want my children to live a carefree childhood.”
