Chapter 25


    Kyle stood to his feet. “I’m not hungry anymore,” he dered before returning to his room.


    That’s it?


    What was that?


    Is he nning to go on a hunger strike, to threaten me so I’ll hire Nicole to cook for him?


    Dream on!


    Evan was upset because his own son was currently being manipted by Nicole.


    “Mr. Seet, shall I prepare another meal for him?”


    Other food?


    He’ll simply find another reason to refuse the meal!


    “Ignore him!” Evan replied coldly before he went to his study.


    …


    Meanwhile, Juan was happy to be reunited with Nicole. He then recounted everything that had urred


    at Hillside Vi.


    Nicole’s fury heightened, upon hearing her son’s words. Damn you, Evan. How dare you call me a foolish


    woman?


    “Mommy, I praised your skills in front of Daddy.”


    Daddy?


    Nicole’s face turned stern. “Who is your Daddy?”


    “Evan Seet, of course!”


    “He has never taken care of you! Why are you calling him Daddy now?”


    Nicole felt annoyed, as her son, whom she had brought up single-handedly was now calling a man who


    had hated her, ‘Daddy’.


    Juan touched his own head and grinned. “Mommy, do you want Kyle to call you Mommy?”


    Kyle?


    I’d given birth to him, so of course, I would want him to call me Mommy.


    “That’s different,” Nicole insisted.


    Well, Juan did not know what she had meant, by the word ‘different’.

    His conclusion was, Mommy took care of us herself for the past few years. If she reunites with Daddy, we


    can live together. Daddy will protect her!


    We’ll be a perfect family again.


    Juan really liked Kyle, so he thought that it would be fun to y with Kyle every day.


    He stared at Nicole intently, hoping that his wish woulde true.


    “Mommy, did you marry Daddy back then?”


    Daddy again?


    Nicole red at him irritatedly and responded, “No!”


    Juan continued, “Then, Mommy, will you marry him now?”


    Marry Evan Seet?


    That b*stard wants me to die! No, he’ll still hate me even after I die!


    She would never have escaped abroad with her three kids in tow if he hadn’t offered a one million


    reward, for finding her. No one would understand how hard these years had truly been for her.


    Hence, she met Juan’s gaze and announced, “Even if he’s the only man left on this earth, I’ll refuse to


    marry him! He can grovel at my feet sincerely, and sob pitifully, but I still won’t marry him!”


    She harrumphed coldly after her announcement.


    A silence ensued.


    Juan stared at his Mommy’s angry expression and thought to himself, It looks like our family will not


    reunite for the time being.


    However, if I teach Daddy a lesson to avenge Mommy, will she give him a chance?


    When they both arrived at school, Maya and Nina were waiting for them.


    Maya was pouting unhappily. Juan had promised to buy her cake pops, but he had never returned.


    Upon seeing Nicole, she tugged at her clothes andined about Juan.


    “Maya, Juan didn’t buy the cake pops for you because he was helping me out. Let’s go and buy it now,


    okay?”


    Maya broke into a smile promptly and nodded.


    At the dessert store, the three kids chose their favorite desserts. Juan picked one and gave it to Maya.


    The little girl’s eyes shone with joy as she thanked her brother.


    As Juan’s desserts had ended up in front of Maya, Nicole stood up to buy some for him.


    She went to the dessert counter and spotted a walnut cookie, which Juan had loved. She was about to


    pick it up when someone else beat her to it.


    Looking up, she felt her heart sink.


    Why is she here?
