Chapter 956

The two little ones nodded in unison.

Johnathan chuckled and said, “Then why don’t you guys come with me now and let your parents have some alone time.”

Essie and Roddy exchanged a puzzled look.

Vonnie covered her mouth and laughed, saying, “You don’t need to understand; you just need to know that if you come out with us for two days, your mom and dad will make up.”

Although a little confused, the two children nodded in agreement when they heard that their parents would reconcile, indicating their willingness to go with Johnathan and Vonnie.

And so, while Reynaldo was looking for the medicine box, Johnathan and Vonnie quickly abducted Essie and Roddy.

When Johnathan left, he said, “I can come out now, no need to hide in the kitchen anymore.”

But when I think of Reynaldo’s cold and sinister look, I feel a bit intimidated.

Just two minutes after Johnathan and Vonnie had left with the children, Reynaldo came down from upstairs carrying a medical kit.

Afraid that he would notice me, I shrank back into the room and secretly peeked out.

He looked around the living room and then glanced outside, his handsome brows furrowing instantly.

He took out his phone, as if he was dialing Johnathan’s number.

“Did you dare to steal my child?!”

“I gave you ten minutes; hurry up and bring my child back!”

“You like children so much, why don’t you have your own? Are you coming here today just to suggest having my child?”

“Are you sick? Is stealing my child a surprise for me? Do you want this surprise?”

“Hello? Johnathan, hello…”

Johnathan seemed to have hung up the phone abruptly.

Reynaldo loosened his tie in anger and threw the first aid kit onto the sofa.

He stood with his hands on his hips, looking dark and fierce.

I don’t know if it was just my imagination, but in the spacious living room, he stood there alone, with a hint of loneliness.

Looking back now, he was lonely all those four years.

I had at least two children, while he seemed to have nothing.

Ugh!

Couldn’t feel sorry for this man!

In the end, it was all because he “kicked me out of Freybourne” in the first place; he was lonely, he deserved it.

Thinking angrily, the soup in the pot suddenly started bubbling.

I was startled and hurried over to lift the lid of the stew pot.

“Who?!”

Suddenly, a cold shout accompanied by the sound of a door opening rang out.

I was startled by the sudden sound, and the back of my hand was accidentally splashed with the scalding hot soup, which hurt so much that I cried out and quickly shook my hand.

However, the next second, the tall man leaned over and took my hand, then rinsed it under cold water without saying a word.

Although the cold water relieved the burning pain, a large red patch still appeared on the back of my hand, and blisters were faintly emerging.

Reynaldo’s angry voice was tinged with reproach: “If you can’t cook, don’t try to show off. And if you get burned, don’t bother others!”

I was originally planning to apologize to him and explain the incident at the school gate.

As soon as I heard these words, anger and grievance surged up instantly.

I pulled my hand back forcefully and muttered, “It’s just a minor burn, not worth bothering Mr. Humphrey.”

Reynaldo looked at me intently.

His brow furrowed tightly, his face looking very bad, his tall figure standing in front of me, exuding a strong sense of oppression.
