Corinne sneezed a few times during the journey home, and she had the feeling that someone was talking about her. She assumed that it might be her three kids, or perhaps it was Francine wondering why she had yet to return home. She did not dwell on it much and continued on her way as she entered the Holdens''pound.


    Francine was busy entertaining the kids with a robot kite she had purchased earlier. When she saw that Corinne had returned, she said to the little children, "Your mom''s back! Go tell her to y with you! I''m exhausted!"


    Francine''sint prompted the children to turn around. They immediately lost interest in their kite when they spotted Corinne walking in from the door. The three of them then ran up to her while calling out ''Mommy''.


    Corinne was instantly swarmed by her three children. To ensure that she could embrace them all evenly, she knelt and spread her arms before bringing them into her warm embrace. "I''m back!"


    Christine pouted. "Where were you, Mommy? You left us with Aunt Francine again. She has a date tonight, and she''s been asking about you for the entire day!"


    ''Francine was the one who had been talking about me, then.''


    Corinne looked up. A servant was holding an umbre up for Francine as she walked over to Corinne.


    Corinne raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why didn''t you tell me that you had ns?"


    Francine shrugged and replied, "I called you several times, but you didn''t pick up!"


    Corinne''s mind went nk for a moment. A blush appeared when she recalled why she had put her phone on silent.


    "Sorry, I didn''t hear your call. Well, I''m back now, so you can go ahead and get ready for your date."


    Francine was in a rush to meet up with Chester because he had been waiting a long time for her. Nevertheless, she still felt the need toin to the little rascals. "Hmph! You forgot all about me the instant you saw your Mommy. And you even told on me to her!"


    Bryan chimed in innocently, "Joey and I didn''t say anything. Christine was the one who told Mom about it! She has a big mouth!"


    Christine red up upon hearing her brother''s usation. She ced her hands on her hips and retorted, "Who are you using of having a big mouth? We''re twins, so your mouth is the same size as mine!" Bryan scowled disapprovingly at Christine. "I wasn''t talking about the size of our mouths. I''m saying that you can never keep things to yourself!"


    Christine grew even more angry. "You''re the one who can''t keep things to yourself! I can do that if I want to, and no one can force it out of me if I don''t want to tell them!"


    Bryan raised his chin defiantly. "Why don''t you give an example of that?"


    "I liked the other Bryan more than you! And I''ve kept that to myself all this time!" Christine said in anger. "You bully me all the time!"


    Bryan appeared displeased. "Go y with him, then! I don''t like your noisy chattering either. I enjoyed the peace at Daddy''s ce so much that I didn''t even want to return! I would''ve stayed if I didn''t miss Mommy so much!"RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only


    Christine''s anger intensified. "You... You''re so annoying! I won''t talk to you anymore!"
