It’s Evan’s problem, anyway. Why should I be the one in trouble?
He rubbed his nose and raised his brows when an idea popped up in his mind.
Oh, yes! What a brilliant idea!
He mumbled as he typed out and edited the message properly before sending it to his mom.
“I’m sorry, brother. Please don’t blame me. We all know what mom can do, and I really don’t want to go on blind dates or betray anyone. So…”
Upon receiving Davin’s text message, Mrs. Seet read carefully from the beginning to the end.
What? Evan had an argument with Dr. Tussaud?
He went to settle old scores with Dr. Tussaud, but she taught him a lesson instead…
The next piece of news in the text message came as a shock to Mrs. Seet.
Though Davin kept his promise by not telling his mother about the three children, he did reveal that Nicole was Kyle’s biological mother.
He even intentionally emphasized that Dr. Tussaud was actually Nicole.
Mrs. Seet read that part of the message several times to make sure she fully understood the story. She then immediately gave Davin a call.
Davin was startled by the ringtone of his phone.
He took a glance at the screen, mustered up the courage, and answered the call.
“Hey, mom. Are you having the time of your life there?”
“I didn’t call you to talk about this. I just want to know if this Nicole Lane is truly Tussaud, and Tussaud is Kyle’s mom?”
“Yes, I can confirm that.”
“So, your brother and Nicole…”
“Something happened in the past, they had kids together, and they have feelings… wait, no, I’m not really sure if they have feelings for each other.”
In the past, Mrs. Seet was not sure why Evan was always at loggerheads with Nicole, but now, she finally knew why.
So they have had a special relationship!
At Hillside Villa, Kyle and Juan locked themselves in their room and celebrated their success.
Earlier, the two little boys worked together to fool Blake, causing the latter to believe he was not in the right mind and that something was wrong with his sight. He nearly wanted to apply for leave and return to his hometown to recuperate.
“Now that Blake is not around, do you think daddy will get mommy to come and take care of you?”
Kyle paused for a bit, “I don’t think so. Daddy is not going to give in so easily.”
Juan nodded in agreement, “How can we help them to get back together? This is the only way we can stay together as a family.”
“That’s right. We have to find a way!”
The two little boys knitted their brows, let out a sigh, and started brainstorming new ideas.
Before they could work out a solution, however, Juan’s phone vibrated all of a sudden.
It was a call from Nina.
Juan picked up the phone and answered, “Yes?”
