    He paused for a while and put his arm down suddenly.


    Gazing at her, he said earnestly, “At least I’m someone


    important to you. That’s enough for me to outweigh all other suitors of yours.”


    He still sounded very confident in himself.


    All her suitors were basically unappealing to her.


    No matter in which aspect, none of them couldpete


    with him.


    The only man he found to be a threat was Weston.


    He lit a cigarette. “Indeed, he’s the one who wields all the


    power in Ahn City…”


    As soon as he took a puff, he saw Ste frowning.


    He hastily put it off. “I am sorry. I was a little

    overwhelmed by drinking too much.”


    Without saying anything, she wound down the car


    window to let the air in.


    She did not like the smell of cigarettes and did not want Elias and Emma to be exposed.


    “You are still young. Now is the time for you to sharpen your skills. Smoke and drink less. These habits


    are


    unhealthy,”


    Times had changed. Drinking and smoking might have been required to get business deals in the past,


    but it all depended on one’s capability now.


    Although socializing was still important, it was more


    about a person’s potential.


    Miguel hummed in response.


    He loved the moments when Ste cared for him. His


    actions were actually deliberate. He liked to see her nag at


    him.


    As he thought about it, he suddenly reached out his hand


    and tried to touch her hair again.


    Ste was shocked and dodged him immediately,


    averting her eyes.


    “We are almost there. Why don’t you close your eyes and


    sleep for a while? You’ve drunk a lot.”


    Miguel dejectedly withdrew his hand and closed his eyes.


    “Okay. Call me when we arrive.”


    Ste carried Elias and Emma into their bedroom in the


    apartment and tucked them in.


    They woke up as soon as they got out of the car. Emma


    was a bit fussy and kept crying.


    Fortunately, Elias was docile and did not insist on Ste


    reading him a bedtime story.


    The twins slept peacefully.


    Ste sat beside their bed, staring at their sleeping faces.


    “They look like angels only when they are asleep…”


    Miguel came in through the door and stood behind her.


    They are also cute when they are awake. They are even


    cuter when they are sleeping, though, especially Emma.”


    ??


    He stood next to Emma’s bed. He intended to reach out


    and poke her chubby cheek but was worried that he would wake her up and make her throw another


    tantrum.


    “Her eyes were red just now. Did she get bullied in the restaurant? I forgot to ask just now.”


    He had sobered up quite a bit after having some soup and only noticed that something was amiss when


    he thought back on her sudden request toe back to the


    apartment.


    They had already decided to have dinner in the


    restaurant, but she changed her mind on the spur of the


    moment. Did something happen?


    She mouthed some words at him: Let’s talk outside.


    They gingerly left the children’s room.


    She went to the kitchen and made him some noodles.


    They each had a te with a couple of eggs nestled on top


    of the noodles.


    Ste gently poked the egg yolk with a fork and let the


    golden liquid flow out.


    Miguel propped his chin and looked at her. Smiling, he said, “You always like these half–cooked eggs so


    much.”
