When he saw that he had been left behind, John grabbed Veronica’s arm and said, “I want to hug elder sister, too!”
Veronica let go of the six little ones and looked at John.
She used to think that he was her brother, but now he was not.
But the child was innocent, what did he know?
“John, if you run out like this again, your family will be worried,” Veronica said.
“But elder sister hasn’t come to visit me for a long time!” John’s little face flushed with grievances.
“I’m busy with my work.” That was the only reason Veronica could say.
“Well, Mom is very busy!” Cathy spoke for her mother and comforted John.
Veronica Parker looked at the six little ones in front of her, the corners of her mouth raised and her eyes were full of happiness and contentment. She ignored the rest.
However, when the school would inform Nick as soon as possible.
When the time would come, Nick would definitely come to the TV station and he would take away the six children.
So now she needed to spend time with Peter only.
Her cell phone rang.
Veronica took it out and saw that it was the director. She answered, “Director.”
“I heard that the previous sextuplets came to the TV station? Did you call them?” The director asked.
“They were brought in by their family but their family left for a while. I came to have a look.”
“I understand! After all, we still have a third season to shoot and if the sextuplets will be there, this season will be safe! ” The director was very happy. “Veronica, how clever you are!”
Veronica laughed twice, she was afraid to disappoint the director but she couldn’t let the six little ones on TV.
Nick won’t agree to it.
Of course, if the director knew that they were the children of Nick, he would not dare to make such a request.
“Coax them well and then communicate with the parents. The reward is easy to negotiate, you know?” The director asked.
“Okay, I get it.” Veronica would be perfunctory first and then she would find an excuse to refuse later.
Veronica Parker stayed with them in the lounge and wanted to get them something to eat but Peter only grabbed her and refused to give way.
It was as if he was thinking that she won’t come back as soon as she goes out.
Veronica did not go to get food.
She stayed in the lounge with them and she cherished every second very much.
Because she didn’t know when the next time would be.
While Veronica was playing with the seven little boys, the door of the lounge was pushed open unexpectedly, and Nick suddenly came in. His long figure was with a deep momentum of indignation and power.
Veronica’s heart trembled, nervous, did time pass so quickly?
It didn’t seem to be long.
It was only 05:00 on the wall.
She had been with them for almost three hours!
It was reasonable to be shocked by the appearance of Nick Cage.
He came later than she thought he would.
It was hard to guess whether the man would become terrible and his next move.
Veronica wasn’t moving and Lily ran up to Nick smartly. With two small hands, she said, “Daddy, give me a hug!”
“Why, did you do good things to be hugged?” Nick said so but his body took action, he picked her up and held her in his arms.
A little lump on her throat formed.
Lily crouched in her Daddy’s arms and looked excitedly at Veronica, “Mom, have you seen the tenderness of Daddy?”
Veronica was dumbfounded, Nick’s sharp, deep black eyes suddenly looked at her.
Lily acted and as if Veronica and Peter were only planning something before Nick came.
Although she should not, the look on Lily’s face made it hard for her to decline.
She simply changed the subject, she was worried that Nick would be angry because of what happened. She said, “I do not understand why the children come to the TV station. Why are they not in school? Do you know how dangerous it is when they sneak out of school? I didn’t expect you to take care of the kids like this. Don’t you want to talk to the school? It’s dangerous to let children get out all the time!”
In front of the question, her tone changed.
After all, Veronica was afraid of Nick. He won’t do anything when the child was present. What about when the children were away?
“Isn’t that your choice? Huh?” Nick had a dangerously low voice.
Veronica frowned slightly. “You don’t think it’s my fault, do you?”
“I only look at the results.”
“You.” Veronica wanted to argue but Nick’s overbearing and strong attitude left her speechless.
Because she saw the children, it was now her fault.
Nick turned to the children and his voice sank. “Who took the lead in running out of school?”
“I. I.” John Cage was so frightened that he could not speak and tears rolled pitifully in his eyes.
Peter and John stood in a row. “I was the one who led them!”
Nick was cold and condescending. “Do you think you won’t be punished?”
Peter clenched his small fist, his whole body was full of strength and his face was unconvinced.
Julie shouted, “We can only see Mom if we run out of school!”
Josh was tearful and said, “Hmm!”
Cathy, “Mom played with us!”
Daniel ran up to Veronica and grabbed Veronica by the leg. “Mom!”
“Daddy.” Lily’s tears were falling while she was holding her mouth, wasn’t that so pitiful?
Nick’s facial lines were tight. “Come on, please.”
No sooner had the words dropped than the bodyguard outside appeared.
“Send him away.” Nick command.
The bodyguard looked up at John, among the children. “Yes.”
He came forward and picked up John.
John resisted and struggled in the arms of the bodyguard, “I don’t want to go! I don’t want to go! I want to play with Peter! I want to play with Cathy! I want to play with Julie, I.”
They could no longer hear his voice in the back. He was taken far away by the bodyguard.
Nick’s sharp eyes swept to the children on the ground and said, “Let’s go.”
The little ones all looked at Veronica.
Veronica, who was enduring a sad heart, squatted down and touched Josh’s crying face. “Mom hasn’t finished work yet, go back with Daddy first and be good, will you? By the way, next time, don’t run out of school, Daddy and Mommy will be worried, okay?”
Lily slipped down from Nick, ran to Veronica, and asked innocently, “Mom, don’t you like Daddy’s tenderness?”
Veronica saw how Nick held the children, it looked like a gentle side but it had nothing to do with her.
Nick said, “Everybody in the car.”
Lily asked, “Is Mommy going to the car, too?”
“Mm-hmm.”
The six little ones were immediately happy and ran to the door like a little penguin. When they got to the door, Cathy, who fell behind, turned around and said, “Mom, come quickly!”
Veronica barely smiled. How could she possibly go? She was lucky to see them unexpectedly.
Why would she be allowed to get on the bus together with the children?
Veronica Parker was still looking down when she heard Nick’s low voice, “What are you still doing there?”
Veronica was stupefied and raised her face. It took a while to understand what Nick was talking about because it was unexpected.
“Wait! Give me a minute. I’ll get my bag from the office. I’ll be right there! ” Veronica walked past Nick with joy.
