Clayton quickly grabbed Chatty’s fleshy little hand and said,” I will!”
He smiled, went over, and patted Fischer’s head.
“Come on, let’s go in. I’ll quiz you on your homework.”
Fischer sighed, walked in front, and shook his head.
Nicole was carrying little Kenji and teasing him.
Kenji looked at Nicole, grinned, and stretched out his hand to touch her face, and grab her hair and her clothes. He was so happy that he wanted to jump up.
Clayton clicked his tongue, put Chatty down, and went to carry Kenji.
The baby was very cheerful. He looked better than when he was just discharged from the hospital.
His eyebrows were delicate, and his double-eyelid eyes were dark, glittering, and clear.
Kenji was loveable.
Nicole smiled and sat on the side. “He’s a little more mischievous than Little Leaf, who was so obedient even as a baby.”
Clayton smiled and nodded.
“It’s good that he’s mischievous. Otherwise, Big Brother will be bored!”
“True.”
As they spoke, Floyd came in with a fishing bucket.
Clayton quickly stood up, intending to go over to help.
Floyd waved his hand and said with a smile, “Kai said he’s coming soon. You guys are just in time for a fish feast!”
With a bitter face, Nicole sighed.
“We’re having fish again? Dad, you have two little kids running around you all morning. Can you even catch any fish?”
Floyd smiled slyly and said, “Il asked Mr. Anderson to catch these from the pond, so no fishing required!”
Clayton smiled and said, “Dad always has a way. The fish won’t take the bait with these two monsters around.”
“Clayton, you always know what to say!”
Floyd gave him a thumbs up.
The servant took the fish to the kitchen and cleaned it.
Floyd went to wash his hands before he went to the living room.
Kai came in soon after by himself.He fiddled with his car keys as he walked in frivolously, which annoyed Floyd.
Kai glanced at Nicole’s belly and smiled.
“Chatty has been bragging at school every day that her younger sibling is arriving soon. Where’s the baby?”
Clayton and Nicole froze.
The two looked at each other.
They felt the pressure from their daughter and could not take it anymore.
Nicole glared at Kai fiercely. She looked so cute when she was frowning in anger.
“Stop spreading rumors! Having a career is more important!”
Kai slumped on the sofa as if he had no bones. He had a specious smile on his handsome and flawless face.
If this smile was on screen, it could easily enchant women.
Kai really had nothing to show apart from his face.He saw Chatty and Fischer running down the stairs and waved at them happily.
“Chatty, your daddy and mommy are big liars! Come here and teach them a lesson for me!”
Chatty looked so cute as she stared at him with her big watery eyes and a disapproving expression.
“Uncle K, you’re so handsome, but you can’t just scold others like that!”
Chatty went over to take Kai’s hand, held it up, and kissed it.
Chatty had always shown a tendency to favor good-looking people since she was a baby.
Kai was stunned for a moment and had a complicated expression on his face.He was not mad at Chatty’s “punishment”.
Instead, he looked touched and proud.
Kai could not help but smile smugly for gaining the upper hand.
He carried Chatty on his shoulders. At that moment, he smiled brightly and said, “Chatty, you’re the best in our family! Uncle K loves you the most!”
He proudly curled the corners of his lips and carried the little girl on his shoulders. Then, he glanced at the three stunned adults and happily ran out to play.
Floyd gave him a look of disdain and thought, ‘He’s just good -looking. Who doesn’t have what he has? I made him!”
Nicole and Clayton looked at each other worriedly.
Nicole spoke in a low and concerned voice, “Will Chatty grow up to flatter handsome men?”
She could tell from Chatty’s reaction to the handsome young doctor in the hospital and Kai…
The corners of Clayton’s eyes twitched. He was silent for more than ten seconds before he turned to look at Fischer, who was busy eating snacks next to him.
This kid was good-looking too, but no one could tell what a kid would grow up to look like.
What if he grew up to be ugly?
Clayton sighed sadly and hoped for the best.
However, Clayton still held Nicole’s hand and comforted her.
“No. Chatty is a sincere girl. Appreciating someone’s good looks just shows that she has good tastes…” Clayton said dryly. He also felt that he could not make up any more excuses.
Floyd could not help but laugh. He patted Fischer’s shoulder and said, “Go out and play with Chatty. Don’t let Uncle K take her away!”
Floyd was afraid that Kai would be a bad influence on Chatty because he did not trust Kai at all.
Fischer nodded and ran out instantly.
Nicole and the others finished their meal and walked around the garden afterward.
That was when she received a call from the police station.
“Based on the evidence provided by Mr. Ferguson, we have already concluded this case. Mrs. Quinn Ferguson hired someone to tamper with your car’s brake system, but she drove away the wrong car and caused her own car accident. We are arresting her accomplices at the moment. Since Mrs. Quinn Ferguson is paralyzed and is still in critical condition, we will send someone to guard her ward 24/7. She will be receiving legal punishment after the trial. However, Mr. Ferguson proposed to keep this case away from the public eye. Ms. Stanton, do you have any objections?”
Nicole glanced at Clayton, who smiled and shook his head.
Nicole replied, “I don’t have an objection. Let’s follow Mr. Ferguson’s wishes. Thanks for your hard work.”
There were so many things involved in this car accident, but the police managed to conclude it within a day. This was mostly thanks to Eric.
Eric did what he promised.
After Nicole hung up the phone, she sighed and held Clayton’s arm tightly.
“Quinn has always looked down on me, but there’s no need to go this far, right?”
Clayton touched her hair gently.
“She had countless opportunities to give up, but she still decided to go ahead and do it. No one can redo this.”
The couple returned to the living room after their walk.
Kai was still sitting in the living room, playing games with Fischer.He looked back at them and frowned.
“Why aren’t you guys leaving?”
Nicole immediately retorted, “Why aren’t you leaving?”
Kai clicked his tongue, glanced at his phone, and dropped it again.
“Jules went out for a business deal. I’ll have to pick her up later.”
Nicole paused. “Why aren’t you going?”
Kai glanced at Clayton meaningfully.
“An investor snatched a movie production from her and wanted to add an unnecessary actor to her movie. I know that investor, so I can’t go. Can you guys go over later and send her home on my behalf?”
The corner of Nicole’s mouth twitched.
“What kind of husband doesn’t pick up his own wife?!”
“Isn’t she your best friend?!” Kai retorted righteously and confidently.
