When the fragrant dishes were served on the dining table, I called the two kids over to eat. Only then did I realize that Nicole was already seated properly by the dining table.
“Nicole has improved a lot today. She is sitting straight and deserves some praise.”?I smiled as I picked up a piece of shrimp meat for her.
“Winnie was great today too. She told mom the moment something happened. She’s smart.”?I picked up another piece of prawn meat and put it in Winnie’s bowl.
“Mommy is so nice.”?Noelle picked up the prawn meat and put it into his mouth. Suddenly, he exclaimed,?“Ah!”
“Did you scald yourself?”
“No, it’s just that mommy’s cooking is too delicious.”?Noelle took big bites as his eyes reddened.
In fact, this was the first time Noelle had eaten a meal cooked by an elder.
Normally, Alpha was busy with work, so Noelle’s meals were handled by the servants. The meals he ate always lacked the taste of home. And even if Noelle did have a birth mother, both him and his father didn’t have much affection for the woman, so she was nonexistent to them.
Feeling a motherly love that he never felt before, Noelle couldn’t help but wipe his eyes with his sleeve as he ate.
I didn’t know what Nicole was thinking. When I saw her eating, she covered her eyes with her sleeve. I asked worriedly,?“Baby, what’s wrong?”
By the time Nicole lowered her arm, I realized that her dark, grape-like, beautiful eyes were wet.
“Why are you crying? If you feel aggrieved, tell Mom.”?As I reached for a tissue to wipe Nicole’s tears, I gently patted her back.
“I think the reason why Nicole was crying was because she broke the glass window in that man’s house this afternoon. I could almost guess what Alpha could do. He must have been fierce with Nicole for her to feel so aggrieved.”?This thought made me angry.
“Mommy, I’m fine. I just feel that mommy is very good and I’m moved to tears.”?Seeing me frown, Nicole hugged me instead and comforted me.
“It’s good that you’re okay, baby.”?I didn’t think that Nicole would still want to comfort me after feeling aggrieved. Immediately, my heart ached even more and I decided to settle the score with Alpha.
On the other hand, the real Nicole was in a heightened emotional state.
The reason for this was because Nicole felt that the gathering of adults was too boring. Thus, she secretly slipped out behind Alpha’s back. She went to a small park nearby and found a few boys her age to play with.
By the time Alpha came looking for her, Nicole was arguing with the boys with her hands on her hips.
“Return our cards!”?one of the little boys shouted.
“Am I going to give it to you just because you say so? If you are willing to bet, you must accept your loss, understand?”?Nicole shouted back, unwilling to be outdone.
“If you take it all, how are we going to play?”
“You’re the ones who want to compete. You lost and you’re acting so shamelessly. Aren’t you ashamed!?”
“We didn’t say that we would compete with you!”
After Alpha, who had a frosty look on his face, picked Nicole up, Nicole stuck out her neck and shouted,?“A bunch of cowards!”
“Give us back our cards!”
It was the first time he’d been surrounded by a bunch of kids. Alpha felt the veins in his forehead popped.
“Noelle, what happened?”
Seeing that someone had come to help, Nicole pointed at the little boys and said,?“We were playing games and they lost, they should have given me their cards but now they are trying to get out of it.”
“We are not trying to get out of it! It’s… it’s you who stole from us!”?one of the boys retorted.
“Did you sneak out again just to play cards with the kids?”?Alpha interrupted the argument between the kids, frowning at the boy covered with mud.
Nicole was oblivious to Alpha’s emotions. Pointing at the tallest little boy, she said,?“Daddy, help me beat them up!”
