The air in the car was unbearable.
Finally, they arrived at the Seet Residence.
Sophia was curious to see two sulky boys walking into the house.
âArenât you both supposed to be with your Mommy?â
âMr. Seet said no.â
âHuh?â Sophia was shocked to hear that.
Evan, who entered last got upset when he heard that Juan addressed him as Mr. Seet, the same way as how Nicole called him earlier that day.
Like mother like son.
Sophia looked at Evanâs indifferent expression and then at the two dejected boys, she then managed to connect the dots after briefly recalling the tabloid gossip.
Sigh⦠I thought Evan and Nicole were an item. Who would have known that sheâs actually married!
Why didnât Nicole say anything when I was trying to match make them? My poor grandsons⦠now they canât have a happy, complete family.
âEvan, the kids are still at a tender age and they need a mother. Donât let the conflict between adults affect them.â
âMom, I know where youâre coming from but you should know that a woman like her is a bad influence to the kids. I will not let them see each other again. Also, do not allow her to step foot into our home!â Evanâs tone was so stern that it left Sophia speechless.
She heaved another sigh. His reaction is a true reflection of how deep his love is for her. The more you care, the more it hurts.
I know my son well. Nothing will get through his ears at this point. Itâs best I donât add fuel to the fire.
The boys were displeased with Evanâs words. They looked at him with resentment but dared not make it too obvious.
Juan mulled it over in his head. Evil daddy doesnât stay here at the Seet Residence anyway. In other words, we can wait for him to leave and then plead with Grandma to go see Mommy. Grandma said that we need maternal love. Thatâs right! Weâll dramatize it to persuade her later.
As soon as Evan left, the two boys signaled each other to begin their role play.
âGrandma, I miss Mommy so much. Sheâs not a bad lady, in fact, she raised us up single handedly. We canât live without her.â
âGrandma, I miss Mommy terribly.â
Sophiaâs heart was very troubled to see two young boys wailing pitifully. However, her hands were tied as Evan had shared a piece of his mind.
When she was trying to pacify the boys, the door swung open and Davin walked in.
âWhatâs going on?â he asked upon seeing the scene.
Juan wiped the tears off his face and started complaining fiercely. Davin was shocked to find out that Juan disliked him as much as Kyle did.
âOh you heartless rascal! Donât blame Uncle Davin for the conflict between your Mommy and Daddy. It wasnât my fault.â
âYou were so sure that Daddy would leave the vixen and be with Mommy. We believed your words but now Daddy forbids us from seeing Mommy. You messed it up!â
Davin was at a loss.
âGive me a little bit more time to fix this. I need to speak with Grandma now. You go back to your room, all right?â
Kyle rolled his eyes at Davin and left angrily.
Juan commented before following Kyle back to their room, âWe are counting on you so please donât let us down.â
`Sophia gave Davin a death stare and reprimanded, âYouâre such a nuisance to insist on matchmaking your brother and Nicole. Now Evan has developed feelings for her but sheâs actually someone elseâs wife. What should we do now?â
This is so unfair. If it goes well, the credit goes to her but when it doesnât, itâs always somebodyâs fault. She scolded me like as if she had no role in the matchmaking.
âMom, how could you believe those absurd rumors? Thatâs certainly not the case.â
