Just when Halle was in confusion, Amirah said, “Kingsley, where is your daddy?”
“My father is abroad.”
“Does he call you every week?”
“He……” Kingsley scratched his head. The kid of such age was really not good at lying, so he was penetrated into his mind.
“The answer is NO, right?” Amirah continued.
“He……” Kingsley became more and more flustered, entering blinking.
“Well, you should be the bastard, Kingsley, you should be the bastard.” In a roar, Nylah’s anger spurted out at the moment. Recklessly, Nylah returned his trash talk to Kingsley himself.
“No, I’m not bastard. My daddy is really abroad.” Kingsley was anxious to cry.
“Nylah, Amirah, stop it. Ronan, when do you stop the car to let us off?” Halle was getting calm and wanted to get rid of Ronan as soon as possible. After all, there was no way for her to unlock the seat belt.
“Stop the car, stop the car.” Cried the two little ones.
From the rear-view mirror, Ronan cast a sideways look at unrestful Nylah and Amirah, after that, he burst into laughter.
“Uncle Bad, why are you laughing?” Amirah stood up, taking her head to Ronan in driving seat.
The childish voice of Amirah raised Ronan ‘s spirits. He even never minded the slap at all, “nothing.”
“No, you laughed. Why did you laugh?” Her small hands shook Ronan’s shoulder right away, “are you pleased, with mommy, Nylah and I could not get out of your car?”
“No really, actually I think you and Nylah are very cute, and uncle wants to make friends with you two.” Said so, Ronan felt he was bewitched by the two little girls. When facing them, he could not put on his cold face. He had thought to tell Halle off, because she not only slapped him, but bit him on the shoulder. There must be two strings of tooth prints on the shoulder. But seeing Nylah and Amirah, he changed his mind not to teach her in front of the two little one.
“No, you are not our friend. You are bad guy, and stop the car.” Nylah also stood up and joined Amirah.
When the two little one was against Ronan, a loud horn sounded outside the car, attracting them all to have a look.
“It’s daddy. Uncle Bad, you stop the car, and I want daddy, not you. We don’t care about your money.”
“Sit down.” Looking at Nylah and Amirah standing and swaying, Ronan warned in a low voice.
“Kingsley, now it is your uncle who is kidnapping us, letting us take his car. Tomorrow if you say in the kindergarten that we are crying to take his car, I’ll tell others you should be the bastard, and that this Uncle Bad is not your daddy.”
“I…” Kingsley opened his mouth but said no more.
The horn rang again, and Jaiden’s car came over and was very close to the Ronan’s car. Seeing Jaiden’s car through the window, Halle’s face turned deathly pale. This scene seemed to have just happened. Back then, also two men were enjoying fast cars, which nearly made her miscarried.
Seeing Jaiden’s car almost hitting Ronan’s car, subconsciously Halle cried out.
Penetrating her mind, Ronan said, “don’t fear, I am taking the kids to eat ice cream, and then let Kingsley apologize to Nylah and Amirah. The thing at the night will never happen again.” Finishing, he sped up and directly rattled across the intersection, never minding whether it was red or not. Back there, Jaiden’s car kept horning. When he was about to catch up, a big truck was passing ahead, blocking his way.
Ronan witnessed what had happened from the rear-view mirror, a smile flickered at the corner of his mouth. “How about MD Ice Cream Shop?”
“Yeah, how kind of you, uncle.’
“No, we don’t go, and let us off, I don’t know you.”
“Nylah, sit down, don’t be capricious.” Turning a mind, Halle suddenly rested her thoughts to keep a cold war with him. After all, this was his car. She would never win in it. But after she got off, it would be a different story. when the time came, she would find an opportunity to leave with Nylah and Amirah.
“Mommy…”
“Sit down.” She ordered in a low voice.
“Well.” Halle rarely lost her temper. The two little one felt hurt and sat down instantly. Pouting, none of them dare to say something.
Smiling, Ronan never knew that Halle had her way to rule the kids, but looking at the two unhappy, he felt sorry. So he took the remote, pressing a button. Then a display screen was gradually falling and lit up, and a show named Pleasant Goat and Big Bad wolf was on, “how kind of you.” Kingsley cheered and watched the show with relish.
Nylah and Amirah originally didn’t want to watch, but gradually, the two little one were attracted by it. So the two began to look as one, and were thoroughly captured by the image. Ronan rested assured, conveniently throwing the car key on the top of the steering wheel.
Halle kept her eyes on the key. As soon as she got it, she could unbuckle her seat belt, open the door and get off.
But, she was afraid that it was unsafe for Nylah and Amirah to get off while driving.
Ronan picked up the mobile phone and directly dialed to MD Ice Cream Shop, “Manager Powell, I’ll have the whole place on the second floor, and I’ll be there soon.”
“All right, Mr. Grant, we’ll meet you at the door.” The other end of the phone told who this phone was from just by seeing the number. Ronan was the VIP of MD Ice Cream Shop.
Putting the phone down, Ronan looked at the imprint of hand on his face, which faded away much more. He put his key away and said to Halle, “stop thinking to get off, and it is not safe here. I will drive you home after having the ice cream.”
Halle’s face turned red. She was penetrated by him, and she kept silent. She gaped, looking at the road in front of her. What had she got herself into? Everyone was finding her troubles. “Ronan, what happened to you? I gave you a slap, but you treated me with ice cream. Don’t you slap me back?” Looking at him who seemed to never mind, she was not at ease.
“Somehow, I just feel that your kids are not Jaiden’s.” He gave a glimpse at the sisters while driving, who were watching the animated cartoon. Kids were just kids. They were not mad now and were buried in the cartoon.
Halle’s heart missed a beat, “Ronan, it is none of your business.”
“Grandpa asked me to take care of you in his will.”
“You don’t have to.”
“But I think I have to, and Jaiden can’t protect you at all.”
“No, I’m fine now.”
“Are you? What are you going to do about Hunter? Do you really want to…?” Stretching to press a button, Ronan directly dropped the soundproof glass between the seats of the rear and the front. So the kids would never hear what they were talking about.
“Ronan, you knew that?” She thought he didn’t care about her at all, but he already knew that thing.
“Halle, I said once I would help you deal with it. Now that Jaiden don’t care about you, and I will handle it on behalf of my grandfather. But you have to tell me who is the father of Nylah and Amirah.” How cute they are! He had been impatient to kids. But he liked the two little one very much. He had made sure that the two kids were not Jaiden’s. Ronan had told it from the personality of Halle, who never asked for help, that the two kids had no connections with Jaiden. The woman was so special that she posted the check back to him that he had offered her. It was still fresh in his mind how surprised he was when receiving the check.
“Ronan, this is none of your business.”
“But I think this is my business, because at that time you are my nominal wife, and I have investigated, back then you had no relationships with other men, except with me, Hunter and Jaiden. If it was not Hunter and Jaiden, I really can’t guess it out. Could it be…” After a pause, he added, “If it is true, you just need to tell me the truth, and I will get you justice, though it has been a long time.”
“Because of Grandpa’s will?” She asked sarcastically, nearly fainting at his thought that she might have been violently raped.
“Not really, I think you suit me better.” He smiled, raising his eyebrows. “Halle, even if you don’t tell me, I’ll find out who it is.”
It was you. There came a moment that she was eager to hit his head, but she withheld. What he had said made her nervous. “what do you mean? I suit you better?”
“Be my woman.” She never asked him for anything he didn’t give, besides, she had a face that pleased him. Her face looked like her most. He could not find a better one. It was her face that made her his nominal wife for so long. But his grandfather had known it but didn’t call his bluff.
