Chapter 248 Interrupted
His chest was sturdy, and his breath was warm. Not only that, he held her tightly in his arms, making her unable to free herself from his embrace.
“Ah…” Vania was startled for a moment. “Let go of me! You scared the hell out of me.”
Hanson didn’t let go of her, though. Instead, he lowered his head and said emotionally, “Vania, I—”
However, before he could finish his sentence, he heard several coughs behind him. “Cough! Cough…”
He immediately looked back and smiled at the four kids with embarrassment.
Taking advantage of the situation, she broke free of his embrace and explained to her kids, “We weren’t doing anything.”
Hanson nodded in agreement to indicate that they really didn’t do anything. What Vania had said was indeed true; just as he was about to do something, he was interrupted by the four kids. How regrettable. How could I forget about these little brats? Seems like staying here is only the first step. I still have four little kids to win over in the Haling Villa, he thought to himself while massaging his temples with his hand.
The four kids eyed the pair before them up and down with folded arms and identical expressions. They weren’t doing anything? Like hell we’re gonna believe that. We saw with our own eyes that they were locked in an embrace, especially the Devil. If we hadn’t come in, we’d say he’d have kissed Mommy just now.
Jack instantly fixed Hanson with a haughty look and warned, “Don’t get physical with Mommy. We’ll be watching your behavior at all times. If we find you doing that once again, we’ll chase you out of here.”
Jacob nodded. “That’s right. Don’t think you can do whatever you like now that you’re staying in our house.”
Then, Jack reminded Vania, “Mommy, you’ve to watch out for this guy. He’s got evil designs on you.”
Jack said to Vania, “Mommy, we want to talk to this guy in private.”
She agreed without forgetting to say, “Don’t talk nonsense.”
He nodded. “Don’t worry, Mommy.”
At this moment, Jacob pointed at Hanson’s injured hand and said, “Mommy, since his hand is wounded, we’re allowing you to help him this time, but you mustn’t do that again.”
Vania nodded. Jacob is indeed the most tenderhearted as I think he is, she thought.
Hanson didn’t think so, though. The one who seems the most harmless usually hits the hardest, he thought.
