Chapter278

Ethan was absolutely furious.

He didn’t lower his voice, and Maureen heard it before reaching her room.

She looked over.

Knowing they couldn’t hide, Jacob and Ethan stepped out.

Ethan blurted out: “Mommy, how come you’re coming out of Uncle Geoffrey’s room?”

He was jealous–Mommy hadn’t kissed his cheeks in ages, yet she went to see that jerk.

“I… I…” Maureen stared into their wide eyes, scrambling for an excuse.

Just then, Geoffrey’s door swung open.

He emerged with a scowl: “We’re discussing important matters. Care to join?”

The two little ones wanted to ask what business happened at this hour.

Suddenly–CRASH!

A loud noise came from outside, like something falling from height.

Zoe shuffled out, rubbing her eyes: “Why aren’t you all asleep? What’s happening?”


Maureen flushed crimson, stammering: “We heard the noise too… came to check.”

“Let’s see then. Heavy snow probably broke something.”

Jacob came up with a great idea to punish Geoffrey: “Grandma, the snow is so heavy, it broke a tree branch outside and blocked the road.”

“What if someone drives tomorrow, Alex? Aren’t you very strong?”

“Could you help move the branch away and do a good deed?”
