Sean’s innocent remark made Avery a pillow nearby and threw it at him.
“Sean Hamilton! Shut up! I know I’m an old lady. You don’t need to spell it out! You little rascal, I’ll get you for this!”
Seeing his godmother get angry, Sean dodged the pillow and hid behind his mother.
“Mommy, look! Avery can’t handle the truth. I was just being honest.
Sean ran ahead while Avery chased after him. They both ended up standing before Nadine. Sandwiching her, they turned to her for judgment.
Nadine watched the two bicker and smiled warmly. “You two! You just can’t stay in one room together peacefully.”
“Instead of focusing on your game, you’re disturbing my reading. I’m not settling this for you! I’m going to the kitchen to cook. You two can do whatever you want. I’m not getting involved.”
Although Avery wasn’t Sean’s biological mother, her love for him was just as deep. Nadine didn’t worry about them.
She enjoyed these little squabbles. They brought a sense of normalcy and warmth to her life. As soon as they heard Nadine was going to cook, they both shouted their requests.
“Mommy, I want fried chicken and smoked spare ribs!
“Babe, I want beef burritos and some salad. A small portion will do. I’m on a diet.”
Nadine didn’t respond. She pretended not to hear them as she headed to the kitchen. Once she was out of sight, Sean and Avery exchanged a mischievous look and high–fived.
Sean’s big eyes sparkled as he asked, “Avery, do you think Mommy is feeling better now?”
Avery was more excited than him and replied with a smile, “Definitely! Your mommy loves to cook and clean when she’s in a good mood. See how happily she went to the kitchen? She’s definitely feeling better. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Sean nodded wisely and asked, “But what if Dad comes back to bother her?”
Avery’s response was straightforward. “We’ll just kick your dad out! Or maybe we’ll call Jean and have her take him away!”
Sean agreed enthusiastically, “You’re right! If Dad bothers Mommy again, I’ll have Grandpa Adam deal with him!”
Avery shook her head and disagreed, “No, I don’t want your mommy dealing with anyone from the Hamiltons. The further she stays away from them, the better!
“Even though your great–grandpa treats her well, he’s still a member of the Hamiltons.”
Sean remained silent. He simply huffed and trotted off to the kitchen with his little legs. The kitchen wasn’t big. So, as soon as he entered, Nadine saw him.
Seeing her pouty son, she couldn’t resist teasing him. “Who made you upset again? Look at you. Your face is all pale with anger. Should we go teach them a lesson?”
She knew Sean was angry at Avery messing around with him, but she played along anyway.
With his head down, Sean walked up to her and looked up with his innocent little face. “Mommy, I miss Grandpa Adam. Can we go see him after lunch?”
The boy didn’t understand what had happened between his parents.

He only knew they moved out of Phoenix Villa the day after his mother’s birthday. Despite the on her face, her eyes showed she wasn’t happy.
Days had passed, and his father hadn’t visited Nadine.
Even though Nadine kept saying everything was fine, Sean didn’t believe it. If everything was really fine, why would they have moved out of Phoenix Villa?
Yesterday, Brad even called him to ask where Nadine was. Sean had proudly replied, “If you want to know, find her yourself!” Then, he hung up.
Now that he came to think of it, Brad must have done something wrong again to make Nadine upset.
