A Crazy Night Novel

Back when Azure had devised the plan of using Lucas and Camila to threaten Nathaniel, Anya had also played a part in masterminding the plot.

Nathaniel had recently discovered that the culprit behind Christina’s kidnapping had something to do with Anya too. However, he did not have sufficient evidence and no way of preventing her from causing any more trouble in the future.

On top of that, Anya was a member of the Gibson family. Hence, even though he was capable of going against the Gibsons, it would still stir up plenty of unnecessary trouble if he recklessly accused her.

It was not difficult for the five-year-old boy to answer Nathaniel’s question. Lucas had an excellent memory, and he was clever. He repeated what Anya had said to him word for word, recounting every detail to Nathaniel.

“The evil woman said Great-Granny misses Camila and me. And Mommy, too. She hoped. Camila and I could forgive them, then asked me to persuade Mommy to go back and visit Great-Granny and Granddad together. The evil woman would bring yummy food and come to look for us at the kindergarten. She even got my phone number and would send me photos of Great-Granny and Granddad. Camila and I never ate the food she However, if I didn’t reply to her messages, she said she’d let everyone know about the bad. things Mommy did so that Mommy couldn’t be a designer anymore.”

When Lucas mentioned Christina, he suddenly became anxious. His small hand clutched the hem of Nathaniel’s shirt nervously. “Daddy, you must teach that evil woman a lesson and protect Mommy.”

Nathaniel picked him up in his arms and comforted him patiently. “Could you let me have a look at the messages she sent you?”

Lucas nodded solemnly. Climbing out of Nathaniel’s arms, he ran over to h hand under the covers, and felt about for something. Then, he handed his Nathaniel, his innocent eyes shining with determination.

Nathaniel stroked his head. “Don’t tell your mommy about this for now, okay?”

“Okay. It’s our little secret. Let’s make a pinky promise, Daddy,” said Lucas, sticking out little finger.

Nathaniel hooked his pinky finger with Lucas’ and gave it a gentle shake. “There’s a good boy. Why don’t you head on downstairs and have your dinner first? I’ll be along in a short while.”
