Chapter 2032 Not A Single Word
At the sight of them squabbling, Evan and Nicole exchanged a glance. All of a sudden, Nicole interjected, “Stop arguing first. There’s still something important, so let’s talk about that.” “What is it, Nicole?”
“Go ahead, Nicole.” “You can’t ever allow Mom to know about you catching Dad in the act at Jazz Winery. Otherwise, you know how things will unfold, given her volatile temper.”
At the thought of Sophia declaring war on Jonathan and the household plunging into chaos, Sheila couldn’t help shuddering.
They live with me in Seet Residence, so my days will definitely be torturous if havoc reigns in the house! Maybe Zayden, Joy, and even the two toy poodles at home will be affected. The consequences are too severe. She’s right in that this matter definitely can’t be allowed to get to Mom’s knowledge.
“You’re right, Nicole. Rest assured that we won’t tell Mom about it. Also, don’t worry about my father. I’ll do something so that he won’t leak it out.”
Initially, she thought her father was in urgent need of money and was incensed that Evan wouldn’t give him a loan.
Having known about his intention then, she wasn’t worried anymore. In fact, she felt Evan did the right thing. She no longer held a grudge and reverted to her usual self, chatting and laughing with them as before.
“Great! Then, we shall all stand on the same line with no one breathing a word about it,” Nicole declared.
Davin cast a glance at Nicole and Sheila, lamenting from the depths of his heart, “It’s such a shame that Dad isn’t taught a lesson by Mom after having made such a grave mistake.”
“Consider it carefully, Davin. If Mom were to learn about this, it wouldn’t be as simple as teaching Dad a lesson. Our house might turn upside down, with peace being a thing of the past. You’re familiar with her capabilities. Once she flies into a rage, she’s comparable to a mastiff…” NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Oh, wait! The term “mastiff” doesn’t seem all that appropriate. After all, I can’t call my mother-in-law a mastiff in front of Evan and Davin.
Sheila immediately corrected herself, “She’s comparable to the most ferocious warrior. We certainly won’t be able to stand it. Furthermore, they’re both in their golden years, so why must we push them to battle each other? It’s best that we allow them to spend the rest of their days peacefully. Later, just speak to Dad with Evan and urge him not to make such a mistake anymore.” “I know. I understand all that. I’m just anguished on Mom’s behalf. She has stayed strong for her entire life, but she ended up being betrayed by the person closest to her.”
Sighing, Davin continued, “Actually, I can also understand Dad at times. If Mom weren’t so domineering that he hadn’t much authority or attention showered upon him, he might not have done such a thing. I think their personalities aren’t suited to be together.”
“All right, that’s enough! Let’s all just remember not to utter a single word in front of Mom!” Evan abruptly concluded in a commanding voice.
“Don’t worry, for I won’t say anything, Evan. I understand that they’re both up in years, so there’s no need to break them up and cause chaos in the household.”
“I’m glad you do.”
After the matter was settled, a flurry of footsteps sounded in the corridor outside.
Subsequently, Maya hollered, “Mommy! Are you home, Mommy?”
“I’m here, Maya,” Nicole replied.
Maya hastened in, taking the initiative to greet Davin and Sheila when she spotted them there.
“You’re here, Uncle Davin, Aunt Sheila?”
“Yup! We missed you guys, so we purposely came to visit you!”
“How’s Wilbur doing, Maya? Is he better now?” Sheila queried in concern.
“I came back precisely to speak about Wilbur. Mommy, two of the specialists you invited are here. They’re planning to look him over right now, hoping that you’ll tag along. Are you going?”
“Sure! I’ll go with you,” Nicole agreed readily.
“Can we tag along as well, Nicole?” Davin wanted to join in the fun and see how the specialists were going to treat Wilbur.
