Chapter 881 Where Is Daddy Part Two
Xavian quickly clutched his head. “Oh no! I said something wrong!”
“You’re too dense, Xavian!” Sophia burst out laughing.
Although Franklin, Clayton, and Yumi did not say anything, they were grinning happily.
Sophia’s appetite was just like Natalie’s. Just like a little glutton, she finished all the bagels within a short moment.
“There are still some left in the oven…”
Emma lifted Sophia’s plate, wanting to add two more bagels. However, Natalie stopped her.
“She ate five for breakfast. That’s enough! We can’t give her anything else, or she’ll be too full.”
“I see…”
On the other hand, Emma was afraid that Sophia would be disappointed. Kids at her age would definitely cry or kick up a fuss if they could not eat to their heart’s content. However, when Emma turned around, she saw Sophia sitting there obediently. Sophia flashed her a sweet smile and said, “You really dote on me, Mrs. Bunton! But Mommy’s right. I can only eat five bagels, or I’ll be too full.”
Emma’s heart softened when she saw how obedient Sophia was.
Rubbing her stomach, Sophia said in a mixture of happiness and pity, “Mommy’s bagels are really yummy. It’s a pity that Daddy isn’t here! If only he’s here with us and can eat Mommy’s bagels!”
Natalie, who was halfway through eating a bagel, was at a loss for words.
Before she could say anything, the kids started discussing in front of her.
“I wonder what’s Daddy busy with! He won’t answer our calls.” Sophia was filled with indignance.
“Hmph! He abandoned us to Mommy and stopped caring about us!” Franklin raised his eyebrows.
Yumi cupped her cheeks and asked, “Is he too busy with work?”
“Busy? No matter how busy he is, he can’t just ignore Mommy and our feelings!”
“Yeah! Mommy’s ranked number one. No one is more important than her! How can he ignore us? When I’m free, I’m going to track his IP address,” suggested Xavian.
When the other four kids heard that, they nodded in agreement.
“Yeah!”
“BBQ pork!”
As expected of little kids, their attention was directed away when Emma asked about dinner.
When they finally stopped asking about it, Natalie heaved a sigh of relief.
Indeed, lies should not be said too easily. Once she started lying, she would need to come up with even more lies to conceal the truth.
“I’m going to work.” As Natalie stood up, she reminded the kids, “You must listen to Emma’s instructions at home and respect her like your elder! If she needs anything, you must help her.”
“Okay!”
After bidding farewell to the kids, Natalie left the mansion.
Emma brought the plates on the table to the kitchen and started washing them. She then started preparing for lunch.
The five kids exchanged a look with one another before dashing into the second-floor living room.
As the eldest, Franklin asked, “To be honest, do you think that there’s something weird going on between Daddy and Mommy?”
