Chapter 367: Chapter 366

“Are you trying to get me to leave?”

A line appeared between Evan’s brows, and he was not happy about it.

She just doesn’t want to talk to me, does she?

Nicole shook her head and denied.

“That’s not what I mean. I just don’t want to waste your precious time.”

“Not at all. I don’t feel safe leaving Kyle and Juan here, so I’ll stay here for the night.”

What?

He plans to sleep here tonight?

What does he mean by he doesn’t feel safe leaving Kyle and Juan here? He thinks I’ll abuse them?

Since Evan had made it clear, she had no valid reason to kick him out.

Moreover, he owned this house.

But where is he going to sleep?

“Well then. I’ll get Nina and Maya to sleep with me, and you’ll take their bedroom.”

It was the same arrangement when he had a sleepover here quite some time ago.

Evan thought about it and responded with a serious look, “Their beds are too small for an adult like me.”

…

Then what else do you want? An Alaskan king bed?

If I gave you my bed, where am I going to sleep?

She cleared her throat for a bit and plastered an awkward smile on her face, “It’s just one night, Mr. Seet. This is the best arrangement I can think of!”

Instead of waiting for his reply, she immediately stood up and walked towards Nina’s and Maya’s room.

Just when she wanted to carry them over to the master bedroom, Maya grabbed tightly to her bed with her chubby little hands.

Are you kidding me? How is it possible that she grabbed onto her bed so tightly when she’s asleep?

“Let go of your hands, Maya. Come and sleep with me in my room.”

Nope! For the sake of fried chicken and other yummy food, I’ll not let go of my bed! Maya kept her eyes shut and reminded herself.

Nicole managed to unclasp her fingers for a moment, but in the blink of an eye, she started grabbing onto the bed with her tiny hands again.

A line appeared between Nicole’s brows as she stared at Maya’s chubby cheeks. This girl is faking it.

“Mommy knows you’re not asleep, Maya. Come, let’s go over to mommy’s room now.”

Maya kept mum and held onto the bed tightly.

Nicole was at a loss for words. She then turned her attention to Nina.

Just when Nicole was about to carry Nina, she was taken aback when she noticed a ‘stop’ sign sticker on her daughter’s face!

There was even a note on her forehead – Not changing room! Not changing bed!

At this point, Nicole finally realized why the four children decided to sleep early tonight!

She reached out her hands and spanked Nina and Maya on their backsides.

“You two. What are you trying to do? Did someone bribe you and make you do this?”

Ops, mommy caught us.

Nina pressed her lips tight and refused to respond.

Maya, on the other hand, chuckled in silence and mumbled, “Drumstick, drumstick, yummy, yummy food…”

“Very well. You think I’ll give in so easily?”

“Mommy, we’ll cry if you force us to move. We’ll cry out loud and disturb the neighbors,” Nina said all of a sudden.

“That’s right. Our neighbors will complain and accuse you of abusing your children,” Maya added.

“Yes, yes. The four of us have agreed to cry together, and we’ll blow the roof off.”

“Mommy, you don’t want that to happen, do you?”

Nicole was utterly speechless. She looked at the two girls and was shocked at how they had changed. Are they threatening me now?

“Fine. I’ll not force you anymore, but tell me, who gave you the idea to fake sleep?” Nicole asked Maya.

Maya clenched her teeth and did not want to respond to that question.

Nicole even tempted her with delicious snacks but to no avail.

Nina stepped in and said, “The four of us decided to do this. It’s our idea.”

Nicole was so confused at this point. What on earth are these four cheeky kids thinking?

She walked out of the bedroom, looked at Evan, and felt a little embarrassed.

“The girls are already asleep, Mr. Seet. Why don’t you take the master bedroom, and I’ll sleep on the couch?”

“Don’t. You won’t be able to sleep well on the couch.” Evan showed a hint of concern.
