Stephen would not end up in that terrible state if it hadn’t been for saving the kids.

Nicole felt like she owed Stephen.

She suddenly felt the urge to call him “dad”, but she hesitated. She rubbed her fingers nervously as the word “dad” went back down her throat just as it reached the tip of her tongue.

Nicole thought about her mother being dazed while looking at the sky, falling into depression, and living a life in misery because of that man…

She knew that none of it was Stephen’s fault, but she still couldn’t get herself to call him “dad”.

John stepped forward. “Mrs. Seet, it’s time. I’ll take you and the children to the airport now.”

“Can I stay?” asked Nicole as she looked at Evan.

“No!”

“No!”

Evan and Stephen rejected her simultaneously.

Nicole stared at the two men. She understood what they were trying to do——it was too dangerous for her to stay there and they didn’t want her to get hurt.

She could relate to their concern: she would also wish for her children to be far away from any dangerous place.

“Both of you, be careful, okay? We’ll be leaving now.”

Nicole waved goodbye to the two men. The four little ones pouted. They weren’t happy about leaving, but Evan had made things clear and they knew there was no point in arguing. Daddy has tons of ways to force us to leave. Hence, the kids waved goodbye as well.
