Chapter 1065

“I feel so happy. I got Daddy, Mommy, and brothers doting on me. I’m truly blessed.”

“Silly girl, you are the little princess of our family. Who else should we dote on if not you?”

Lilia sighed again, looking regretful. “Well, it’s a pity Daddy isn’t here. If he were here, he would definitely accompany me to Gaprington.”

As she spoke, Lilia tilted her head and looked at Joanna with a soft, tender expression. “Mommy, why can’t we get through to Daddy’s phone? Where on earth did he go that he can’t be reached?”

When Joanna heard her daughter’s concern, her heart skipped a beat again at the moment.

Irvin complained as well, showing his dissatisfaction. “Exactly. I can’t figure out where Daddy went. “He has been away from home for over a month and does not miss home at all. Did he forget about his wife and kids?”

Hearing the complaints, Joanna could only comfort her children. “Alright, let’s not talk about it. Daddy is working hard for our family. His job is already demanding, so we should understand him.”

Irvin laughed. “That’s true. If daddy does not work hard to earn money, we can’t be some wealthy heirs, right?”

Joanna furrowed her brows slightly and thought of scolding Irvin but decided to hold back with a second thought.

The kids were still young and did not understand much. She would correct their values when they grew up, especially Irvin, who was extremely proud of his status as a rich second-generation heir.

No, it should be the third generation of the rich.

“When Mommy is not at home, you must study well and behave yourself.”

“Yeah, yeah. We know.”

“You’re not allowed to play online games either. Mommy will have Miranda and Mr. Gael to watch over you.” Joanna instructed with a fierce expression.

Children could easily get addicted to online games, and once they did, it was not easy to handle.

“We have so much homework every day. How would we have time to play online games?

“Mommy, don’t worry! We’re the most well-behaved kids.”

“That’s good to hear. You’re all grown up now, and Mommy does not need to nag you.”

Joanna planned to bring Devin along this time. After all, Devin was still too young. She was worried about leaving him at home.

“Enough talk, guys. Hurry up and go back to your rooms to rest.”

“Good night, Mommy.” Davian and Irvin waved to their mother.

“Good night, my darlings.” Joanna bent down and kissed their faces.
