Chapter 695 Eilam Gives up on Entering the Household

It was already late when we returned to Xenos' Villa. I told Ian to find a room to rest on his own, while Shawn was holding the two children who were already fast asleep. It wouldn't be convenient to disturb the nannies who were resting.

Alicia had already gone to bed before we came back.

I asked Shawn, "How about I take care of them tonight?"

Shawn didn't even hesitate when he replied, "The bed is too small. They might fall."

I suddenly started to wonder if this was why he changed the bed to a smaller one.

Just as I had this thought, Shawn suggested, "I'll take the two children to the guest room to rest. You can sleep in the master bedroom."

Feeling a bit upset, I insisted, "I want to be with the three of you."

Shawn fell silent for a moment and then suggested, "Then let's rest in the master bedroom. You can sleep on the bed with the two children, and I'll sleep on the couch."

After saying that, Shawn carried the two children upstairs to the master bedroom. I turned off the lights in the living room and went upstairs. I saw Shawn undressing the two children, his movements familiar and gentle, not waking them up. He then covered them with blankets.

Sitting by the bed, I commented, "It's been about a week since I last saw them. River's face is getting more delicate and adorable, and Skyler looks handsome."

Shawn asked me in return, "Can someone so young be considered handsome?"

"I'm praising my own son, mind you."

I reached out and touched Skyler's cheek, noting how delicate his skin was. After that, I touched River's soft and comfortable little hand. Right when I got addicted to playing with them, Shawn went into the bathroom to take a shower.

Two minutes later, I left the room and knocked on Eilam's door. He opened it and stepped aside. I asked him, "Are you hungry?"

He shook his head. "I had food during the flight."

"Ah. Do you like the decoration here?"

Although the decoration in Eilam's room was simple, it didn't feel empty since the room wasn't too big. Waylen specially arranged this small room for Eilam so that Eilam wouldn't feel lonely. He also added many books and things that boys of Eilam's age would like. The room basically had everything Eilam would need.

Waylen deserved praise for considering every detail and putting effort into doing these things.
