Chapter 337 No Longer Interested In You
Okay, I promise you.”
Nathaniel had never sounded more determined.
Christina did not want to mention anything about Madison to him, nor did she want to bother herself with the two of them.
Being able to provide a warm home for the kids was enough.
Since a long time ago, she had already felt like a stranger in this marriage.
After lunch, the two kids fell asleep on the way home.
Looking at how peaceful the kids were when they were sleeping, Christina felt that everything she had done was worth it.
On Monday morning. Nathaniel took Lucas and Camila to the kindergarten.
Camila’s hair was tied into two small braids. She asked with a smile, “Daddy, will you come to pick us up after cla*s today?”
“If you want me to, I will.”
Lucas exclaimed with joy, “Of course we want you to come!”
A faint smile formed on Nathaniel’s lips. “If you want me to come, I’ll be here. I’ll even be the first one to pick you up, okay?”
Lucas and Camila were so excited that they were jumping up and down.
“Okay! You’re the best, Daddy. Remember to be the first to arrive!”
For some reason, every child believed that having their parents be the first ones to fetch them home was something to be very proud of.
“All right, go in now.” Nathaniel kissed their foreheads.
“Bye, Daddy!” said the two cute kids in unison.
Lucas held his sister’s hand and walked into the kindergarten. Nathaniel flashed a small smile as he looked at their adorable backs.
The scene was like a heartwarming painting that moved him greatly.
Lucas and Camila entered the cla*sroom.
The teacher brought in a little boy, who had a handsome face and was dressed neatly.
“Hello, everyone. We have a new cla*smate in our cla*s today. His name is Norman. Let’s welcome him together!”
All the students turned their gaze toward the little boy who was standing on the stage and smiling toothily.
Lucas and Camila recognized the little boy as the child of the mean lady from yesterday.
Lucas, why is this rude little boy in the same cla*s as us?” Camila asked in confusion.
Recalling what the mean lady had said to him at the office yesterday, Lucas instantly shot a disdainful look at the boy. “Let’s ignore him. We shall not play with him”
He did not want to play with someone who had stolen his father from him.
After he greeted his cla*smates, the teacher asked Norman to find a seat by himself.
As there were no fixed seats in kindergarten, the children could sit wherever they wanted.
Norman deliberately walked to Lucas’ side and declared in an arrogant tone, “I want to sit here.
“This is my brother’s seat. You can sit somewhere else,” said Camila with a disdainful look in her eyes.
“The teacher said we can sit anywhere, so I want to sit here. Otherwise, I won’t leave!” Norman sat on Lucas’ small chair, forcibly pushing him aside.
Camila, who was normally quiet, could not help but extend her arms out and shove Norman. “You’re not allowed to bully my brother!”
Norman ran to the teacher and used his cuteness to win her over. Due to his fair skin and delicate features, the teacher immediately took a liking to him.
The teacher brought out an extra chair. “Lucas, Norman says that he wants to sit with you. Since you’re the little leader of the cla*s, please take care of your new cla*smate.”
Once the teacher walked away, the obedient look on his face disappeared and was replaced by a look of contempt. He sat down gloatingly
Lucas immediately pulled Camila away. “Let’s sit over there.”
The two kids intentionally avoided Norman. They simply refused to sit with him.
When the kids were given some free time, a few of them were playing soccer Norman ignored the rules completely. After Lucas stole the ball from him a couple of umes, he got angry and shoved Lucas.
Lucas fell to the ground and scraped his palmis. The pain made him inhale sharply. “You’re cheating! You deliberately pushed me!”
Norman sheered, “You’re as skinny as a stick. Don’t blame me for not being able to and still
Lucas stood up from the gra*s and roared angrily at Norman, “You’re the one who’s like a stick! You’re as aly and annoying as your mother
At that moment, the teacher walked over “What happened
Norman immediately put on a puful look when he saw the teacher approaching him. He threw himself into the teacher’s arms and said with a sufle, “Its Lucas 1 accidentally bumped into him and he scolded
With the tears streaming down his cheeks, he played the part of the victim well.
The teacher quickly felt sorry for Norman Frowning she looked at Lucas “Lucas, you shouldn’t bully
your new cla*smate.”
“I didn’t! Hmph! You’re all bad people. I don’t want to play with you anymore!” Lucas wiped his sweat and ran off the field angrily.
Camila quickly caught up to him and comforted him. Taking out a small handkerchief from her backpack, she gently wiped Lucas sweat. “Lucas, don’t be angry. I don’t like Norman either. I’ll only play with you!”
Lucas hugged his sister, feeling upset. He refused to admit defeat. There was no way he would lose to Norman, who only knew how to put on a pitiful act. That was not how a real man should behave.
Suddenly remembering what the mean lady had said, Lucas stared at his sister seriously and asked, “Camila, if Daddy has another little baby, and that baby is Norman, will you accept it?”
Camila did not understand why her brother was suddenly saying such things. “Norman is Daddy’s baby? No… Daddy said that he only has us and Mommy!”
Is Lucas so angry that he lost his mind? He’s talking nonsense!
Lucas did not want it to be true either. Pursing his thin lips, he said angrily, “It’s what the mean lady said! She claimed that Norman is her and Daddy’s child. She said we can ask Mommy if we don’t believe her!”
“Then let’s go back and ask Mommy!” Camila’s eyes were filled with determination.
After cla*s, Nathaniel came to fetch them home.
Norman, who was standing at the back of the group, saw Nathaniel smiling while carrying Lucas and Camila.
It was his first time seeing Nathaniel smile.
When the three of them returned to Scenic Garden Manor, Christina had not returned.
The two kids reluctantly went to the dining table and sat down after Nathaniel told them to. As soon as they finished eating, they stood at the door and waited for their mother.
“Why aren’t you guys playing?” Nathaniel came down from his study and saw two small figures squatting at the door like little puppies.
“We’re waiting for Mommy!”
“We have something very important to ask her!”
Nathaniel accompanied them. The three of them looked up and gazed at the stars in the sky. They waited. for quite a while before they finally heard the sound of a car entering the gate.
When the car stopped, Christina looked out the window and saw the three figures sitting in the front yard. Two of them were tiny while the remaining one was tall, resembling a lion guarding the entrance with its two cubs.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw two cute faces eagerly staring at her. “Mommy, can you spend the night with us today?”
They wanted to seek clarification from her.
“Of course!”

Chrema carried the two adorable kids and walked toward the house. While doing so, she turned around and teased Nathaniel. “Looks like your novelty has worn off. The kids are no longer interested in you
