Chapter 69 Daddy, Who Is Lalaine (Anj‘s POV) 

I was done cooking the lemon chicken and almost finishing with the salad when they entered the kitchen. I was just thinking of going to the girls to bathe them, but they were all done taking a bath and had changed into cute baby blue dresses. “How can I help?” Sky asked, going from one child to another, brushing and pulling their hair into a ponytail. “Hmm...” He murmured, looking at the result of his work, and shook his head. He peeked at what the girls were doing, and they were all busy playing Play–Doh clay. “Good job, Daddy!” I smiled, gazing at him as he stood beside me to check what else he could do for dinner. “Where did you learn to take care of small girls?” I asked, teasing him as I glanced at my girls.

I raised my hands, making sure he was looking at me as I bit the edge of the transparent disposable glove in my hand while taking it off my hands.

He moved his head closer to my ears and whispered, “Are you wearing –” “No,” I pushed him gently and walked past him. “I‘m not.” I turned to my children. “Come on, wash your hands; let‘s have an early dinner.” They placed the clay back in the cup and ran to the sink, still chatting about their plan of what to do with the clay. Sky followed me to the dining room with the platter of lemon chicken while I brought the vegetable salad. I set the table quietly, and again, he helped me place plates and cutleries, but I would catch him stealing glances at me from time to time. “Say it, sky. What do you want to say?” I asked, not smiling at him, nervously arranging the spoons and fork beside the plates. He shook his head, wickedly
