I need to take my time to break this crazy situation down!
While Nicole was preoccupied with making tea, Davin pulled Juan into his arms. He hugged the child tightly.
Compared to Kyle, this boy is much more lovable.
When I thought Kyle was schizophrenic, I used to pray this cute and sweet side of him would persist!
âCall me Uncle Davin!â Davin pinched Juanâs chubby cheeks forcefully.
âUncle Davin.â Juan happily called out.
He stretched out his hand to rub Davinâs face affectionately.
The uncle and nephew duo continued to playfully pinch each otherâs cheeks. They were obviously enjoying each otherâs company.
âUncle Davin is biased! He only wants to play with boys and not girls.â
Maya whined after being neglected. She swiftly snatched the bag of shrimp chips away.
If he doesnât like me, he doesnât get to eat shrimp chips!
She sulkily shot Davin a glare before munching down on the chips.
Davin quickly tried appeasing the little girl. He put on a sincere smile and said, âWho said I only want to play with girls? Come here. Let me cuddle you. You come here too.â
Davin looked towards Nina.
Nina stared back at him coldly. She stood statuesque, not moving even a single muscle.
Evan is such a bad man, so how nice can his brother be?
I think every member of the Seet family stinks.
She merely glanced at Davin before walking back towards her bedroom.
Davin smirked as he watched her figure grow smaller. Her temper mimics that of her father.
âPlease have some tea.â
âThank you.â
Nicole sent Juan and Maya back to the bedroom. She seated herself in front of Davin and began to tell him of the events which transpired between her and Evan.
Davin listened intently. When she got to the part about taking the three children, his face twitched.
âIt must be hard for you to raise these those children on your own. Why donât you get my brother to help? Or you could approach my parents. The Seet family definitely wonât abandon you or the children!â
The sole reason I fled abroad was to escape Evanâs vengeance.
So how could I seek him out now?
As for the Seet family⦠They never came to mind.
âYour brother and I have bad blood between us. He hates me! If I go to him now and inform him of those three children, he definitely wonât allow me to raise them! Heâll fight me for custody for sure. I canât lose them! Which mother would be willing to let her children go? I canât allow them to leave my side!â
As Nicole spoke, her desperate helplessness shone through.
Davin could feel Nicoleâs love. It was the love only a mother could possess.
âYou and Evanâ¦â
I canât believe this happened!
They must have a special kind of fate tying them together!
When he thought back to Evan and Nicoleâs first encounter, and how they both immediately exploded with rage, Davin finally understood.
So this is the reason behind their animosity!
There must be some misunderstanding between them!
âMy brother is only aware of Kyleâs existence. Do you plan to keep those three hidden from him forever?â
Evanâs misplaced anger towards her could very likely stem from the fact that he doesnât know about those three children.
âHe canât know! I almost lost my life trying to give birth to those children. Blood, sweat, and tears went into raising them! I canât allow your brother to take them from me. No matter what, this has to stay a secret from him. Please, help me keep this from him. Iâm begging you!â
Almost lost her lifeâ¦
Blood, sweat and tears went into raising those childrenâ¦
A woman puts her life in danger every time she gives birth.
Not to mention the danger of miscarriage always hanging over her headâ¦
Davinâs furrowed brows drew even tighter as he mulled over the situation.
The torrent of past misgivings pressed down heavily on his chest. The pain which he had suppressed for so long suddenly emerged, suffocating him. The agony threatened to drown him.
