Chapter 213 Nolan Cunningham Mistakes Justin for Timmy

"You've really got the wrong door; it's just my mommy here," Justin explained patiently to Timmy, fetching him some tasty snacks from the kitchen and boasting, "These are made by my mommy, super yummy."

Timmy gobbled up the food, clearly having been out for quite a while.

"Take it easy," Justin poured him some chocolate milk.

With his cheeks stuffed, Timmy looked at Justin. "My mommy, it is my mommy."

"But..." Justin was almost frantic, not knowing on how to deal with someone claiming his mum. "But she's my mum."

Justin was experiencing for the first time what it felt like to be invaded; wondering why did he open the door to this kid.

It looked like Timmy was planning to stay put.

Timmy, not very fluent in Chinese, resorted to speaking English when he couldn't outtalk Justin.

Justin could converse smoothly too, thanks to his bilingual kindergarten; he was a quick learner.

"It's my mum," Timmy insisted.

"No, it isn't."

After what seemed like ages, a flushed and hesitant Jasmine emerged from the bathroom and, from a distance, heard the cries of two children.

"Justin, what's wrong?" Jasmine, alarmed, hurried forward.

Her legs wobbled, nearly sending her to the floor, but Ethan caught her from behind and pulled her into his embrace.

Ethan's eyelids twitched fiercely at the sound of the children's cries, a bad feeling stirring within him.

Sure enough, entering the living room, they finally saw the source of commotion - it was the youngest of the Cunningham clan.

"Little Tyke?" Jasmine was stunned, glancing between the child, Ethan, and Justin. The two kids even cried alike.
