Chapter 553: Chapter 552

Davin was still shocked as he muttered, “Let me think of something. Why did my sister-in-law become an idiot all of a sudden? Hmm?”

The way he asked the question caught the attention of the four kids who had just returned home from school.

Nina glanced at her siblings. “Who did he just call an idiot?”

Kyle stared at Davin without blinking. “He said it’s his sister-in-law?”

Juan was astounded. “His sister-in-law is our mommy!”

Maya’s lips parted in horror before she yelled, “Mommy’s an idiot? How could that be?”

Davin turned to the kids and immediately hung up. He forced out a smile. “You’re back? Time for lunch!”

“Uncle Davin, did you just say our mommy became an idiot?”

Davin lowered his head and tried to brush them off. “N-No. You must’ve heard me wrongly.”

“Did we?” Juan looked at his siblings, who shook their heads. “No, we heard it clearly.”

Davin insisted. “I wasn’t talking about your mommy. It was someone else.”

The kids saw through a guilty Davin instantly. They were certain it was their mommy.

Nina went up to him. “Uncle Davin, if you are telling us the truth, who was the person you were talking to? Can we talk to him?”

“Yes. Give us your phone so we can ask him.”

Davin paused. “Err, my phone ran out of battery.”

He knew the kids would find out the truth, so he made up an excuse.

Nina folded her arms and snorted. “You’re lying. That means you’re feeling guilty. We were right. You were talking about Mommy!”

Maya glared at him sternly. “Uncle Davin, our teacher told us not to lie. Those who lie are naughty. You can’t lie to us.”

Has your teacher taught you what a white lie is?

This is a white lie, alright?

Kyle announced, “Since Mommy is now an idiot, and we’re her kids, we need to protect her!”

“Yes! Let’s pack and leave now!”

Juan threw his schoolbag down and rushed to his room to pack immediately.

The other three kids followed suit.

“Hey!”

Sighing, Davin said, “Don’t be delusional. Aren’t you afraid someone will kidnap you on your journey?”

Maya wasn’t good with directions, so she stopped right after hearing Davin’s words. She turned back and looked at him pitifully.

“Uncle Davin, you won’t let someone else kidnap us, right?”

“Of course. I’m your uncle.”

“Then, you take us there!”

Err, I mean you shouldn’t be going because it’s too dangerous!

Since he said nothing, Maya hurriedly thanked him and ran into her room.

Davin was dumbfounded. Did I even agree?

No, I didn’t!

Yes, I can’t let them leave.

Kyle and Juan packed their luggage in no time and came out of their room.

Nina put on some makeup and a pair of cool sunglasses before dragging her luggage out of her room.

“Wow, Nina! What is in your luggage?”

“Clothes and my makeup box. I’ve brought the latest makeup tools along.”

“We’re going to save Mommy. Why did you bring your makeup box with you?”

Nina rolled her eyes. “Cos I want to!”

They are my treasures. What if they come in handy?

Maya was pulling her heavy luggage out of her room as she huffed, “Oh, dear. This is heavy.”

“Maya, what did you bring?”

Maya sighed. “It’s going to be a difficult trip. I brought yummy food along so I won’t starve.”

Everyone was rendered speechless.

You’re bringing so much food along?

Why don’t you just bring cash and buy the food along our journey?

Kyle and Juan shook their heads at their sisters.

“Uncle Davin, give us Mommy’s address. We’ll leave right away.”
