Christina frowned upon hearing that. “What about your daddy? Didn’t he put you to bed?”

Before departing the country, she agreed that Nathaniel’s bodyguard would accompany her on the condition that Nathaniel would remain at home to care for their children. Yet, to her confusion, it seemed that he hadn’t made much effort to fulfill his parental responsibilities.

Lucas and Camila suddenly realized that they had unintentionally revealed the truth, despite their promise to their father that they would keep it a secret.

Nathaniel felt a surge of panic as he realized how close the kids had come to exposing the truth.

“I’ll be back soon. Be good, and I’ll bring you your favorite chocolate as souvenirs,” Christina told them.

“What’s wrong, Christina?” The familiar charming voice rang out, albeit sounding a little hoarse.

“Why is your voice hoarse?” she asked. Did he catch a cold from working late every day?
