Quinn, who had come back to his senses, turned to run. Unfortunately, Nora had already stepped forward and grabbed his beard. "Old man, what are you running away for?"
Quinn cried out in pain. "Let go, Sleepyhead!"
Pete, who was next to them, was speechless.
He'd thought that Mommy was a very gentle person-after all, she was always sleeping. But after they went home last night, she insisted on taking off his pants. Mommy had been very cheeky then, and because of the chaos that had ensued, the two of them had become a lot closer.
Now, he also discovered that Mommy actually also had a very violent side to her.
She was just like a treasure trove that always gave him one novel surprise after another.
Nora plucked off two strands of hair from Quinn's beard before she finally let him go.
She really was rather mad.
The children didn't understand her pain, but as her teacher, how could Quinn possibly not understand? Yet he had still helped the two little fellows to keep it a secret from her.
Half an hour later, Justin sent Cherry over.
Nora's eyes reddened a little as she stared at the two identical faces, and contentment filled her heart.
Quinn circled around them. "It's so rare for boy-girl twins to be identical! Sleepyhead, I'm going to take them to practice once you've had enough of staring at them."
Nora nodded.
After Cherry went off to watch Quinn and Pete practice martial arts, Nora cast her eyes down and picked up her cell phone. She called her aunt and related what had happened to her. "... Say, if I run off with the two of them now, what will Justin Hunt do?"
Her aunt's voice was very carefree and hearty. She replied, "Why does it have to be him? He isn't just the head of the number one family... That man isn't one to be messed with. Even if you manage to escape, you'll be caught sooner or later anyway! I'd advise you to give up on that."
Nora leaned back on the recliner lazily. "What should I do, then? Do I pay to get my son back?"
"He seems to be richer than you."
"Then do I challenge him to a fight? Whoever wins gets the child?"
"He seems stronger than you."
"... Is there anything I'm better than him at?"
Her aunt thought for a while. Suddenly, she laughed and said, "You're better than him at sleeping. Why don't you conquer him in bed?"
"..."
Nora was speechless for a moment. Then, her aunt said jokingly, "Or why don't you get him to fall in love with you? The two of you can just get together!”
Nora thought for a while and came to a conclusion. "It's too much of a loss for me if I do that."
"What's your loss? He's pretty handsome, so he'll look okay next to you."
Nora sighed and replied, "I wanted a son, but if I do that, not only would I lose my daughter to him, but I'll also lose myself to him."
After a few cheeky exchanges with her aunt, Nora hung up.
After thinking about it, she decided that it might be better to have a good talk with Justin instead. After all, after interacting with him for some time, she had found that Justin wasn't as unreasonable as how he was rumored to be.
After giving Quinn and the children a heads-up, she went to Hospital Finest.
Justin and his younger brother were in the hallway. Neither of them saw her, so Nora walked over.
It was Sunday the next day, so Howard would be handling family matters on behalf of his grandfather at the family home.
Justin wanted Chester to keep Pete company when that happened.
Chester patted his chest and promised, "No problem! I'll watch over him and prevent anyone from bullying him!"
After he said that, he thought of the huge secret that he was hiding from his elder brother. He let out a guilty cough and asked, "Can I ask you something, Justin?"
