Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 237: Long Night

"Do you think the extra gifts were necessary, Ewan?" Zane asked, his voice laced with curiosity as he watched Sandro empty the car of the items they had just purchased from the store.

"Sure, the twins would—or rather, might—be excited when they see the newest advanced LEGO set you’ve brought, along with the castle set, but the comic books and paint materials..."

He paused, his gaze drifting to Sandro, who was wrestling with an overflowing array of bags. "I don’t think that was a tactical move on your part. I’ve never seen anything like that around their house. I think they’re past that stage..."

Ewan remained silent at first, absorbing Zane’s words as he began to collect some of the items from Sandro.

The weight of the conversation hung in the air, and then Zane nudged his left shoulder, as if urging him to engage. Reluctantly, Ewan accepted that this was not a rhetorical question.

"No matter how intelligent they are, Zane, they’re still kids. Not older than six. Sometimes, they need to loosen up a bit. It can’t be all puzzles and codes, building something or cracking some secret." Ewan sighed deeply, as if releasing not just air, but the burden of expectation.

"Sometimes, they should just... be kids. But if they don’t want it, they can always give it to Kendra. She seems like fun. At least, I gleaned that from the profile Spider sent us a few days ago."

Zane scoffed, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. "Have you forgotten the end part of the profile? The girl is no longer in the country. Luca took her away, accompanied by her grandmother, Margeret."

Ewan bit his lower lip, the reality of the situation sinking in. "Oh well... let’s see how it goes." His heart began to pick up the pace as they approached the imposing tall gates. He suddenly halted dramatically, recalling something important. "Sandro, where’s the other package? The one I got for Athena?"
