Chapter 980
The call got through after a few seconds.
“When will you be back?” Odell asked.
“Sir. I‘m at a critical point in my studies. Please give me
another week, tops. I‘ll master it and come back.”
Odell furrowed his brows and hummed in reply.
The weekend went by in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps it
was because Isabel and Liam had slept early, they woke up earlier than Sylvia on Monday morning.
Odell went to work after breakfast. Sylvia then sent the kids to school and watched them go inside
before she went home.
Flint had started to become clingy. He threw himself
into his mother‘s arms as soon as she came home and clutched at her clothes as he
called her multiple times.
“Mommy. Mommy.”
His adorable little voice melted Sylvia‘s heart, so she held
him as she continued to guide and teach him to call out other names.
The little guy could only speak a few words for now, such as calling Aunt
Tonya ‘Nana‘ and Sebastian ‘Dada‘.
Both of them were delighted when Flint had called them.
Sebastian had even blushed.
Unable to conceal the wide smile on
his face, he waved his hand repeatedly as he said, “Oh my, oh my. This is too much for me to handle.”
Even though Isabel and Liam were not at home during the day, the atmosphere at home was still quite l
ively with little Flint around
Friday arrived in a flash.
Sylvia had overslept that evening so she had not picked Isabel and Liam up from school today.
When Flint woke her up from her nap, she saw Isabel running in.
The little girl ran in wearing her uniform that was a little too tight on her. Her little legs
were moving so fast that her pigtails fluttered behind her.
“Mommy, we‘re home!”
She was like a bird that had just been let out of its cage.
Liam‘s hands were in his pocket and he was behaving a lot calmer than his sister. He followed her insid
e at a steady pace.
Sylvia carried Flint in her arms and walked up to them.
“Hey silly brother, let me carry you,” Isabel said as she reached her arms out to Flint.
Flint reached his arms out to her as well.
Sylvia then placed Flint in Isabel‘s arms.
The moment the little baby was placed in her arms, her
little chubby face became flushed. However, she still managed to hold onto him tightly in her
arms. She grumbled, “Silly brother, you‘re getting as fat as a pig.”
Obviously not understanding her, Flint gave her a silly smile as he giggled and even tried to kiss her.
“I don‘t want to kiss a fat piggy.”
Despite saying so, she did not dodge her little brother‘s kiss. She allowed him to suck on her cheek for
a while before passing Flint over to Liam with a disgusted look on her face and throwing herself
into Sylvia‘s arms.
Liam calmly carried Flint in his arms.
Flint clearly liked his brother a lot. He grinned as he opened his mouth and said, “Brother…”
Liam gave a small smile and said, “Hmm.”
Flint then planted a big kiss on his big brother‘s face, leaving a trace of saliva all over his cheek.
Liam frowned as he always preferred to stay clean and hygienic.
Isabel burst into laughter when she saw the interaction between her brothers. “Hahaha…”
Liam glared at her with furious eyes.
“Hahahaha,”
Isabel stopped laughing when she sensed her brother‘s glare.
Failing to hold herself back, Sylvia let out a little giggle. Isabel put her hands on her hips
and looked at her mother.” Mommy, are you laughing at me?!”
Sylvia held back her laughter and said, “No. I‘m laughing because you guys are happy.”
“Hmph! Why didn‘t you laugh when I laughed at Liam?!”
“I did. You just didn‘t hear me.”
The girl‘s eyes gleamed. “Really?”
Before Sylvia could reply, she sensed Liam‘s gaze.
The boy was staring at her calmly. Although he did not show much expression, Sylvia felt pressured.
She found herself in a quandary.
If she spoke the truth, Liam would be unhappy; if she lied, the girl would definitely throw a tantrum.
Just as she was at a loss about what to do, a loud farting noise in the room.
Isabel pinched her nose and jumped around. “FLINT FARTED !!”
Liam frowned as well.
