Chapter 290
Realizing they had done something wrong, Ruby immediately lowered her head when questioned, her fair fingers fidgeting in front of her. “Sorry, Mommy, I just couldn’t resist the food.” Dylan couldn’t muster any tough words either at this moment.
Seeing Dylan in such a state, Eva almost burst out laughing from being exasperated. “Dylan, you couldn’t resist either p>
Hearing the words “couldn’t resist” Dylan finally spoke up, his handsome face immediately turned red, “No, Mommy, it’s not like that p>
Eva sighed and spoke softly, “What’s going on with you two? Didn’t I always tell you not to eat things from strangers p>
“But Mommy said yesterday that we are friends with Lucas now, and Mommy also gave Lucas candy to eat.” Ruby said, not understanding.
Eva was rendered speechless by her daughter’s retort.
Yes, if she considered Lucas’ uncle a stranger to Ruby and Dylan, then isn’t Lucas a stranger to her too?
After thinking for a while, Eva had no choice but to say, “I expressed myself incorrectly p>
Upon hearing this, Ruby quickly said, “It’s okay, Mommy, don’t blame you p>
Ruby reached out and rubbed her daughter’s soft hair, but in the next moment, her expression changed, “But you still need to explain to me why you’ve been leeching off someone else’s food for two days in a row?” Seeing Eva starting to question again, Ruby became extremely guilty. “But Mommy, Uncle NightA is not just anyone p>
Uncle NightA is not just anyone?
That’s right, for these two little ones, the identity of NightA has been familiar to them for a long time, even though they have never seen the real person before, only through rewards.
After all the rewards from NightA in the past years, how could they not like this uncle after meeting him in person?
Dylan also spoke up at this time, “Mommy, Uncle NightA is really nice to us p>
“Oh, really? Then can you tell me what he has done?” Eva coaxed them to speak.
Upon hearing this, Ruby was the first to raise her hand and speak, “Uncle NightA helps me eat the burger bun p>
Eva thought she had misheard, but, to her surprise, Dylan confirmed this, nodding slowly. “Yes, Mommy p>
Upon hearing this, Eva couldn’t help but understand.
So, her children were won over because NightA ate the burger bun for them?
But… would he really eat leftovers from someone else’s child? Isn’t that a bit strange? Who would eat leftovers from another family’s child?
“Mommy, Uncle NightA really treats us well.” After speaking, Ruby thought of something funny and covered her mouth, giggling. “And Mommy, Uncle NightA is very handsome!” “Handsome?” Eva questioned.
“Mhmm! Mommy, how about letting Uncle NightA be my daddy?” Ruby asked innocently.
Eva’s expression changed. “What are you saying p>
Ruby pointed her fingers together and pouted. “Well, I don’t have a daddy, but Uncle NightA is really good to both me and Dylan p>
Upon hearing this, Eva couldn’t help but lightly tap Ruby’s forehead with her hand. “What do you know? You’re still so young, someone being nice to you could be because you’re so cute, it doesn’t necessarily mean they want to be your daddy p>
Upon hearing this, Ruby showed a look of grievance. “Mommy means that I’m not good enough! So Uncle NightA doesn’t want to be my daddy, does he p>
This little girl is really good at interpreting her own thoughts.
“I don’t mean that. What I mean is, how do you know that Uncle NightA doesn’t have a wife and children already? Do you understand?” Eva explained.
Ruby nodded as if she understood, but quickly said, “Then Mommy, tomorrow I will ask Uncle NightA, if Uncle NightA doesn’t have a wife, can he be my daddy p>
In the past, Michael was so good to her, but she rarely saw her make such a request to him, asking him to be her father figure. And NightA has only been with them a few times, but she actually developed this idea. Is it because he eats burgers buns so well?
Eva was shocked, “Ruby, tell Mommy the truth, did Uncle NightA say something to you p>
Otherwise, why would she have such an idea?
“What would he say, Mommy?” Ruby asked.
Eva thought for a moment. “Well… for example, did he say that he wants to be your father p>
Ruby shook her head, “No, I just want Uncle NightA to be my daddy p>
“Why?” Eva was puzzled.
“Because Uncle NightA is very nice to me and my brother.” Ruby said innocently.
Almost instinctively, Eva blurted out, “So Michael was not nice to you p>
After saying that, Eva regretted it. She shouldn’t have compared Michael to him, especially since she had already rejected him.
Fortunately, the child’s mind is simple, and she didn’t think much about it. After listening to her words, she only subconsciously said, “Mommy, Uncle NightA is better looking than Uncle Michael p>
Now Eva suddenly wondered if her daughter judges a person’s goodness by their appearance if she has to rely on looks to choose a father figure.
But after calming down, Eva felt doubtful.
Michael, in terms of looks and physique, is exceptional, and coupled with his high position, there are hardly any people who can compare to him. And the little girl actually said that NightA is even better looking than Michael?
With this in mind, Eva looked at her son. “Dylan p>
Dylan had been listening to their conversation, and when Eva looked at him, he lazily looked at her and questioned, “Mommy p>
“Is what Ruby said true?” Eva asked.
For a moment, Dylan wasn’t sure what Eva was referring to, but when he recalled the most recent part of their conversation, he nodded.
Eva suddenly realized that if even her son nodded, then what Ruby said must be true.
Then she thought of Lucas’s face.
It’s not that she’s judging based on looks, but… if they are uncle and nephew, then their genes shouldn’t be that different.
But Lucas’s appearance is just that of an ordinary child, even when he sees people, he still has the expression of a shy little boy.
He appeared timid and weak.
Forget it, let me not think about this matter for now.
“Ruby, you can think about these words yourself, but never tell Uncle NightA, understood?” Eva said.
“Why?” Ruby showed a puzzled expression. “Mommy, Uncle NightA is really nice p>
Eva didn’t know how to explain to her daughter at that moment. She only reminded her not to speak without thinking and to listen to her mother’s advice.
Then she turned her head and instructed Dylan, “Dylan, keep a close eye on your sister. Don’t let her say anything inappropriate in front of Uncle NightA, alright?” “Got it, Mommy p>
