Davin was swift and decisive in moving all of the maids at Hillside Villa to Imperial Garden right away.
No one was living in or caring for the villa any longer anyway.
It only took all of them forty minutes to arrive at their new workplace.
Nicole was surprised by the maidsâ arrival but was relieved when she learned that they used to serve Evan. She thought of having them settled in the rooms on the first floor, but the butler interjected, âMaâam, we servants cannot stay in the same house as you.â
So, Nicole decided to let the butler handle such arrangements as he had been working for Evan for quite a long time and was trustable.
The butler quickly made the arrangements for the maids, with Yoda among them, to live in a small building in the backyard.
Imperial Garden was now livelier than before. The maids woke up early the next day and began their own work.
When the butler noticed Yoda amongst the maids, the former could not help but sigh at the tall figure as the latter reminded him of his former employer.
With the addition of maids, Nicole had a lot more spare time to spare now and began to focus her works on Lane Corporation and the clinic.
Once Davin was sure that Yoda had nothing to do with the fire, Nicole allowed the latter to fetch the children to and from school. Whenever Yoda left Imperial Garden, he put on the biggest sunglasses he could find to cover his ugly face. He was afraid his shocking appearance might scare others around him.
The children liked Yoda a lot because he was kind towards them. Juan liked the man the most among his siblings, as they would practice taekwondo together all the time.
âDaddy would definitely like you if he comes back!â Juan said to Yoda.
The man simply returned a faint smile.
The children used to address him as Mr. Yoda, but the butler reminded them that it wasnât the appropriate way to address their servant, which was why now they were calling him by his name instead. Yoda did not mind any form of address, though.
As Yoda and Juan continued their training, the door was flung open, and the other children came charging in.
âJuan! Yodaâs been training with you for an hour now! Itâs time for him to practice makeup with me!â
âWhat? Didnât mommy tell you not to apply anything on him again? He should come and eat some food with me instead. Yoda, you must be hungry, right? We have some yummy crayfish waiting for us!â
âYoda, do you know how to hack a computer? Can you come and play with me?â
Just like that, the four siblings stared at each other; every one of them wanted to spend time with Yoda. Upon seeing that the children were going to bicker once more, Yoda grew anxious as he had no idea how to solve the problem.
âI have an idea!â Nina suddenly suggested. âWhy donât we draw lots to decide?â
All three siblings agreed to it, and Kyle quickly fetched a pen and paper.
Just as Yoda was about to choose, Nicole walked In, curious to know what they were busy doing. The children explained how they were deciding to spend time with him, and Nicole proposed for them to include her name as well.
âMommy, is there something you want Yoda to do for you?â Maya asked, blinking her big eyes at her mother.
âThereâs something I have to do, and I need a bodyguard when Iâm out and about. I heard Yodaâs really good at fighting, so Iâm thinking of taking him along with me.â
Once the children heard that their mother was in need of a bodyguard to protect her, they immediately stopped arguing and let Yoda go with her.
âYoda, you better protect mommy, okay?â Juan reminded sternly.
âThatâs right. Mommyâs safety is in your hands now.â
âCall us if anything happens. Weâll come to the rescue!â
Yoda was touched when he saw the children, who had been fighting among themselves, coming to an understanding because of their motherâs safety. He immediately nodded as an acknowledgment of their statements.
Before heading out, Nicole changed into a pink dress that perfectly accompanied her figure. Paired with the light makeup she applied, the woman looked even more elegant than she usually was.
Yoda took a peek at her, and his expression darkened a little. Who is she meeting with?
âLetâs go,â she said, and he quickly followed after her.
After minutes of driving, they finally arrived at the crowded bar, The Passion, where people enjoyed a blissful nightlife.
