Chapter 882
Beep, beep, beep…
Bruce heard his phone rang.
His entire body trembled. He thought that it was Richard returning his call.
He hurriedly picked up his phone and saw that it was a video call by Davian.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Bruce braced himself and picked up the call. “Hello…”
On the other end of the line, Davian and Irvin came to the phone screen and said happily, “Daddy, you
got off the ne, right?”
“Yes, I’ve already gotten off the ne.” Bruce tried his best to suppress the lump in his throat.
Davian pouted and asked gloomily, “Where’s Mommy? Why isn’t she answering her phone? We called
Mommy several times, but we couldn’t get through.”
“Mommy, she…” Bruce’s nose and eyes were sore.
However, in front of the children, he still tried his best to suppress his grief. He did not want the children
to start worrying. “Where are Mommy and Lilia? We miss them so much. Let us talk to Mommy on the
phone.”
Irvin leaned forward and said sneakily, “That’s right, that’s right. We’re going on summer break
tomorrow. Daddy, we’re going to Gaprington to see Mommy and Lilia too.”
Bruce took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Be good. Stay at home, and don’t go anywhere.”
The two little boys were disappointed when they heard that. “Why? Didn’t we agree to go to Gaprington
together during
summer break?”
“That’s right. How can you go back on your words, Daddy?”
“It’s not good to lie to a child. Be good, Daddy. Quickly send someone to pick us up.”
Bruce frowned and said impatiently, “Be good. Mommy’s dealing with something right now… You boys
stay home and behave.”
“Daddy, what happened? Daddy, why are your eyes so red? Have you cried?”
“No, I did not!”
Irvin blinked and asked nervously, “Oh my, did Daddy and Mommy quarrel again?”
“Daddy, didn’t you say it before? We’re boys, and we should be considerate of girls. We have to be
gentlemen and not argue with girls.”
“That’s right! That’s right! Daddy, don’t make Mommy angry. Otherwise, we’ll hate you,” Davian and
Irvin said, though they admired their daddy very much.
However, the children still loved their mother more in their hearts.
Whenever their Mommy and Daddy argued about, it did not matter who was right or wrong. They would
always stand on Mommy’s side.
When Bruce heard this, his heart felt even worse.
Looking at his two adorable sons, his heart ached so much that he could not speak.
Seeing that their daddy was silent, the two little boys did not dare to chatter anymore. They said
carefully, “Daddy, where are you now? This doesn’t seem to be a hotel.”
“Where’s Mommy? We want to talk to Mommy on the phone…”
“Don’t ask any more questions. Daddy and Mommy have very important things to do these days. You
all stay at home and take good care of your brother, Devin,” he said.
“That’s it. I’ll hang up first,” Bruce said and hung up.
He was not in the mood to talk to the two little boys.
“Wait, Daddy…” Davian and Irvin tried calling out a few more times, but Bruce had already hung up.
“Davian, what’s going on?” Irvin looked at Davian in confusion.
Davian frowned. “I don’t know.”
“What’s going on? I can’t get through Mommy’s phone, and Daddy’s expression is dark. He looks
unhappy.”
“Davian, I had a bad feeling. Daddy and Mommy must have quarreled again.”
“Every time they fight, Daddy’s very irritable.”

“Look at Daddy’s expression just now. He looked like he wanted to kill someone.”
Davian sighed and looked unhappy. “Another fight? Oh my, why do they always fight?”
“That’s right. Why do adults like to quarrel so much? Have they considered the feelings of us
children?”
“We don’t like adults fighting…”
After listening to Irvin’s words, Davian calmly thought for a few seconds and felt that something didn’t
seem right. “I don’t think they are arguing. There must be something else happening,” he said.
“Let us try calling Mommy’s phone again!”
“Yes, yes.”
Beep, beep, beep!
The two little boys started to call their mommy again.
“Hello, the number you have dialed is currently unavable. Please try againter…”
“What’s going on? Mommy’s phone is switched off!”
Joanna’s phone was out of battery and automatically turned off.
“Mommy never turns off her phone. What happened?”
“Let’s call Aunt Tatiana.”
Irvin also became tense. He held his breath as he looked at Davian.
Beep, beep, beep!
The phone rang many times, but no one picked up.
“Oh no, I can’t get through to Aunt Tatiana either.”
“Huh? No way?”
“Then call Aunt Lilian!”
They had no choice.
Davian had no choice but to call Lilian.
“Hello…”
Lilian picked up her phone.
“Hello, Aunt Lilian, I’m Davian.”
When Lilian heard this, she asked gently, “Mr. Davian, why did you call me?”
“Oh, well, I haven’t been able to call through to Mommy’s phone. Can you tell us what happened to
Mommy?”
“Hmm…” Lilian’s eyes darkened. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
She had worked for the Everett family for nearly ten years and assisted the butler in managing
household affairs.
The servants in the house were all managed by her, and she had never made any mistakes.
Such a person was naturally astute and knew how to handle many situations. They didn’t need explicit
instructions or reminders. They instinctively knew what to say and what not to say, what to do and what
not to do.
Lilian pondered for seconds and said calmly, “It’s nothing. Mrs. Everett just went out and hasn’t
returned yet.”
“Maybe she was dyed by something on the way. Or maybe she identally lost her phone.”
When Davian and Irvin heard this, they looked at each other in confusion.
“How about this! After Mrs. Everett returns, I’ll
“Oh, alright then!”
Lilian dismissed the two boys easily.
After hanging up.

Irvin had a serious expression as he spoke with determination, “Davian, I feel like they are hiding
something from us. Don’t you think so?”
Then Davian heard this, he also had a serious expression.
