Forbidden Passion

Chapter 761 Like Mother, Like Daughter: Equally Stubborn

In the business van, Hubert, Boris, Noomi, and Ethan sat in first-class seats, watching a cartoon on TV.

Phoebe and Evelyn sat in staggered rows, watching the kids to prevent them from falling off their seats in case the driver had to brake suddenly.

"Is Ruby's cold serious?" Phoebe asked Evelyn, who was sitting in the front row. Evelyn was wearing a floral dress today, had her hair braided, and was wearing sunglasses. Evelyn was taking selfies with her phone. "I just went upstairs to check. She has a slight fever, but it shouldn't be a big deal."

"That's good."

Phoebe always felt that something was off with Ruby, but she couldn't pinpoint what it was.

Noomi stood up and squeezed between Phoebe and the seat, her chubby little hands grabbing Phoebe's hair that was hanging over her shoulder. "Mom, let me braid your hair." Noomi was holding a small comb meant for her doll, patiently combing Phoebe's hair, being very gentle to avoid pulling it.

Phoebe held Noomi protectively with both hands.

Hubert, sitting next to them, looked at Noomi, then at the TV, and then back at Noomi.

Hubert climbed up from his seat, grabbed Phoebe's arm, and squeezed next to Noomi, grabbing a strand of Phoebe's hair. "Mom, I can braid too."

Noomi was unhappy and tried to pull Hubert's hand away. "Mom's hair is mine to braid. You can't touch it."

"What if I insist?" Hubert said fiercely.

Noomi glared at Hubert angrily. "You can't!"

Phoebe heard the two arguing behind her, her hair being pulled back and forth, making her scalp hurt. She said helplessly, "Both of you, sit down." "Mom, I was here first. Hubert is being unreasonable," Noomi cried loudly as soon as Phoebe took her hair away from them.

Phoebe turned around and sat Hubert down properly, then put Noomi on her lap, picking up the doll Noomi had thrown on the seat.

"Noomi, how about you braid the doll's hair?" Phoebe suggested.

"I don't want the doll. I
