Well, it wouldn’t hurt to go take a look at the place…

When she was a kid, Nicole had frequently sneaked into Rose Garden to steal flowers for her mother. In the end, however…

“Alright, let’s go have a look tomorrow,” she said.

Juan felt exhilarated. He was confident that his mother would fall in love with the place as soon as she saw it.

When they moved in, Mommy would finally have a place of her own. Whatever belonged to Juan also belonged to her.

Evan found out about Nicole’s plans to visit Rose Garden when he overheard Juan and Kyle’s conversation. His face clouded over.

What would happen if that woman fell in love with the place and insisted on moving in?

He couldn’t let that happen. Evan made up his mind to drop by Rose Garden tomorrow.

After breakfast the next day, Evan arrived at Nicole’s house with Juan and Kyle in tow.

Upon seeing Juan and Kyle, Nicole looked pleasantly surprised.
