Liora playfully nudged Evan with her head while he smiled, his gaze filled with adoration. “Sure, if you don’t want to go.”

Evan replied, “There’s a condition.”

“What is it?” Liora blinked. “Tell me.”

Evan suggested, “You can either lose your phone or go to school.”

Liora’s face sank. “Well, I’ll go to school then because I don’t want to lose my phone.”

“But who secretly fished out her phone to play with it when we were asleep?” Tyler’s voice came from outside the bathroom.

Stiffened, Liora was about to deny it, but Evan interrupted her. “Looks like you’ve learned how to lie. I didn’t teach you well.”

“Ah?” Vexed, Liora looked at Evan and hurriedly said, “No, Daddy. I won’t play at night again, and I’ll go to school.”

Satisfied, Evan smiled. “Okay, don’t break your word.”
