Meanwhile, Kyle was doubtful when Nicole reassured him that Evan wouldnât find out.
Daddy is terribly clever. How did she manage to trick him?
âAre you sure that no one will find out?â
âOf course. Donât worry, you can sneak back into your room. Just donât let anyone notice you and youâll be fine.â
Kyle stared at her, still in doubt.
Earlier on, he had sneaked out, only to have failed to discover anything.
John had informed him that the surveillance camerasâ recordings had all been destroyed since that happened a long time ago. He had tried his best, only to fail at discovering anything.
Kyle was counting on another escape to thoroughly investigate the matter. If his Dad had managed to see through his plan, he wouldnât get the opportunity to sneak out again.
That was why he was particularly concerned about this.
Nicole parked her car a distance away from Hillside Villa, so they wouldnât get caught. She then accompanied Kyle back to the villa and told him to be careful.
âDonât worry!â Kyle replied impatiently and headed for the back wall.
Seeing his reaction, Nicole whipped out her phone and texted Juan to make his exit carefully.
Juan was excited as he could finally leave, but he soon felt disappointed, as he realized that he wouldnât get to eat the dishes that he had ordered earlier.
Good food shouldnât be wasted! Iâll remind Kyle to finish the food on my behalf, he decided.
At that thought, Juan found that he was curious about Kyle too, leading him to make the decision to stay, to meet Kyle.
Laying on the bed, he simply awaited Kyleâs return.
Soon, a light squeak was heard. The windows were pushed open and a little boy jumped in.
Juan sat up and stared at the little boy in surprise.
Oh wow! He looks exactly like the boy on TV! He also looks identical to me! This is awesome!
Kyle was stunned to see the boy staring at him curiously.
Why does he look exactly like me? Heâs even wearing my clothes!
âWho are you?â Kyle inquired, as his usually expressionless eyes widened in disbelief.
Juan walked up to him and giggled. âWe look the same! Canât you guess it? Iâm your older brother! Err, or maybe your younger brother.â
Older brother? Younger brother?
Kyle was confused. Dad never told me that I had siblings. Then, suddenly, a sibling around my age appears?
Unlessâ¦
Mommy brought him back!
At such a thought, Kyleâs eyes lit up.
He was about to ask of his Mommy when they both heard footsteps approaching.
Juan panicked and immediately reminded Kyle, âThe chef has prepared a lot of delicious dishes for you. They are all my favorite, so remember to finish them all! I canât let them see me, so I have to go now.â
He waved to Kyle and climbed out of the window.
Why canât he let them see him? Kyle wondered.
However, seeing that his identical brother had thought to bid as such, Kyle believed that it had ought to be kept a secret as well.
Just then, someone knocked upon the door.
Kyle spoke up impatiently, âWhat is it?â
âKyle, dinner is ready. Mr. Seet is waiting downstairs for you.â
Kyle recalled what Juan had told him earlier, so he opened the door curiously.
When he arrived at the dining room and sat down, he could not help but frown at the dishes on the table.
What are these dishes? They seem strange. Iâve never seen them before.
Evanâs face darkened, upon noticing his sonâs expression.
Earlier, his eyes had lit up, in anticipation, when he had mentioned these dishes.
However, why does he appear reluctant to eat it now?
âKyle, eat up,â he ordered.
At his words, Kyle took hold of his chopsticks and picked up a slice of tofu. He chewed on it twice, before spitting it out in disgust.
âIs it not good?â
âMhm, itâs weird.â
Heâs complaining about the taste?
I bet heâll nitpick on our chef; heâll certainly request for Nicole now!
Evan fixed his gaze upon his son silently, waiting for him to continue.
Howeverâ¦
