Nicole suddenly materialized next to them.

Evan had seen right through her intentions. With nothing left to defend herself, Maya bowed her head and started slurping up the noodles.

Nicole said, “Mr. Seet, thank you for making spaghetti for Maya. If there’s anything you want for dinner, I’ll be happy to make it for you as a gesture of my appreciation.”

Evan thought for a while before asking Juan and Kyle for their opinions.

“Mommy, I want to have beef stew.”

“Me too, Mommy.”

After thinking it through for a while, Nicole decided to indulge the children’s requests. She announced that they would be having beef stew for dinner.

Turning to Evan, she said, “There are no more ingredients in the house. We’ll have to run down to the grocery store for them.”

Evan stood up. “I’ll go. I think I saw some vegetables in the fridge. You can wash them up first.”

“Alright.” Nicole approved of his suggestion very much.

Overjoyed, Juan and Kyle applauded loudly.

“Mommy, we’ll help you!”

Nicole refused gently. “It’s okay. Run along and play now, Mommy will finish washing these vegetables very soon.”

If you need help, just holler for us!
