âLetâs go!â he howled while walking forward, with the kids following behind in quick footsteps.
Evan had brought them to the cityâs most high-end restaurant. He would let them pick any food they wanted to eat.
Maya was the happiest out of all. She had picked a list of her favorite foods, which consisted of chocolate, cheese, and cake pop.
She turned to look at Evan with a big smile and bright eyes. âI take back my words. Youâre a good guy!â
Evanâs face changed dramatically. Sheâs complimenting me now?
He let out a light cough. âLetâs dig in. If you like it, then have more.â
Maya nodded joyfully.
On the other side, Nina only took a small piece of fruit cake before taking a seat next to Maya.
Evan frowned when he saw this. These two are interesting. One has a whole table of her favorite food, while the other only has a small portion.
âYou donât like desserts?â
âI want to take care of my body!â Nina grunted discontentedly.
Sheâs already thinking of that at this age? Nicoleâs twin daughters sure have different personalities.
He turned to look at Maya. âYou should not eat that much, too. Excessive sweets are not good for your bo-â
He could not even finish his sentence when Maya interrupted, âWhy do you sound like youâre afraid of paying for extra dessert when youâre this rich?â
Evan was dumbfounded by her question. âFine. Eat all you want.â
After saying that, he stood up to look for Juan and Kyle.
The former was the active one among the two, so it looked like Kyle was giving commands to Juan when they were together.
âThat one. The blueberry looks yummy.â
Juan immediately went to take the blueberry and put it on top of Kyleâs dessert.
âThat one too. The chocolate seems heavenly.â
Juan stretched out his hand again, but before he could take it, someone grabbed his arm.
He raised his eyes only to face Evan staring down at him, and his heart skipped a beat.
âIf you take all the best part, whoâs gonna eat the rest?â
Kyle froze for a moment before turning his head to look at Maya.
Juan understood what he meant as he answered, âMaya will eat!â
Huh. These two really think things will always go their way.
Evan chuckled darkly as he picked up the cake, which Juan and Kyle had carefully combined, before approaching Maya.
âWhatâ¦â Kyle was flabbergasted.
âDaddy, you misunderstood! We said weâll give her the remaining! Just the remaining!â Juan shouted.
Evan turned his head and stared at them. âYouâre not going home if you donât finish the remaining!â
Both of them frowned. Whatâs going on? Why is daddy treating us like this?
Evan put Juan and Kyleâs cake in front of Maya.
âEat this. Those on top look really delicious. You can stop eating the others.â
Mayaâs eyes blinked when she saw the most appetizing cake combination. âDid you make this for me?â
What? This is all the boysâ doings!
He smiled gently. âGo ahead.â
Oh! Daddy is quite a good person!
At this time, Nicole came back with a drink and noticed the mountain of desserts in front of Maya. She hurried over to tell her daughter not to finish them all.
âMommy, daddy specifically made this cake for me. Heâs a good person after all,â Maya excitedly whispered in her ear as if it were top-secret.
Nicole stared at Evan cautiously.
Since when is he this kind hearted? He doesnât even know Maya and Nina are his kids! There has to be a reason behind his âkindness.â
âYou really know how to cater to someoneâs liking!â
Hearing that, Evan only shot her a look without responding to her.
âSheâs my daughter! You better not have any trick up your sleeves!â
Evan stared at her again. What is she barking about?
âIâm different from you, Ms. Lane. Unlike you, I wonât secretly plan to sabotage someone.â
âYouâ¦â Nicole was at a loss for words.
With that, Evan picked up two cups of drinks from the table and left the spot.
Nicole snickered as she stared at his back. You wonât secretly plan to sabotage someone? Thatâs an obvious lie!
