-Jeremy had no idea he had other kids apart from Benjamin since he had been brainwashed by the


    hypnotherapist Sophia hired.


    ‘Sh*t! If he knew Benjamin wasn’t Benjamin but pretended not to know about it in front of me…that


    means he’s beginning to suspect something,’ thought Sophia.


    Sophia’s eyes darkened. She was the type that would rather destroy the very thing she loved if it meant


    no one else could have it.


    Corinne ced the still-sleeping Benjamin on the bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After


    that, she changed into some loose clothes.


    Benjamin was still sleeping when she came out. She walked over to the window and watched lovingly


    at Joey and Christine ying in the garden.


    It was only after she summoned a servant to watch over Benjamin that she went down to the garden to


    check on Joey and Christine.


    It was not noon yet, but the sun was scorching hot.


    Corinne looked helplessly at the two children, who did not seem to mind the sun at all, before walking


    over to stand under Francine’s umbre.


    “Alright, kids! Time toe in. You two are going to get sunburned if you don’t stop ying outside


    now!”


    The two children, who were fighting over who got to hold the kite spool, immediately turned to look at


    Corinne when they heard her voice. They then threw the kite spool to the ground and ran over to her.


    “Mommy, you’re back!” said Joey while holding her hand happily.


    Corinne smiled and nodded. “Yup. Here I am.”


    Christine wrapped herself around Corinne’s legs. Her cute face was so bouncy that it did not look at all


    burnt from the sun.


    “Mommy, what took you so long? Did you bring any gifts back for me and Joey?”


    she asked, looking up at her and reaching up her hands.


    Corinne patted her little hands. “You’ve been ying the whole morning. Isn’t that enough? Are gifts all


    you can think about?”


    Christine immediately knew she was not getting any gifts. “Mommy, you only brought Bryan out to


    y…and now you forgot to bring gifts back for me and Joey?” she said with a pout.


    Corinne did not forget, but she was embarrassed to ask Jason to bring her to the toy shop before


    dropping her home.


    ‘I shouldn’t have promised her lightly,’ thought Corinne. She squatted and pulled both Joey and


    Christine into a hug. “Mommy didn’t forget. I didn’t get you two anything because I’m nning to bring


    you two out so you can choose what gifts you want, okay?”


    The children were naturally happy to get to choose their own gifts.


    “Okay! Okay!” cried Joey and Christine happily in unison.


    Christine wrapped her arms around Corinne’s neck and rubbed her nose on it.


    “Mommy, I love you so much!”


    Corinne’s heart nearly melted. “Do you love Mommy or the Mommy who buys you gifts?” “Mommy, of


    course!” said Corinne with a straight face, “But I love the Mommy who buys me gifts more. Hahahaha!”


    Corinne was speechless. ‘Oh well, she is my daughter.’ Francine stood looking at them from the side.


    “Corinne, do you know they were only willing to put down the kite after you’re back?” she asked with a


    pout. “You have no idea how much I tried to coax them toe in, but theypletely ignored me!


    They said they hadn’t finished ying. Look at my skin! They’re all burnt. The sunscreen I’ve put on


    has already worn off!”


    Corinne looked up at Francine and said sincerely, “Thanks, Francine. I really appreciate you babysitting


    them. You should head back in to rest. I can look after them now.”Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.
