StarNovelChapter 590
Alex was sipping on slemon-infused water in the passenger seat when he nearly choked at the
conversation, coughing non-stop.
Little Mateo, ever the caring one, piped up, "Alex, you gotta sip water slowly like mom says, or you'll end up
choking."
He reached out with his tiny hand to pat Alex's hair, offering comfort. Alex felt so touched he was nearly teary-
eyed.
Meanwhile, the ever-composed Everett shot back with a cheeky grin, "It's your mom who needs to step up her
game; she could use more sleep."
"But my mom's super strong! She can even run within her arms," Mateo said, clearly unconvinced.
Everett's lips curled into a knowing smirk, "You'll get it when you're older and married."
"Really?" Mateo's little face was a mix of skepticism and curiosity.
Alex sighed quietly, feeling sorry for the young master being so easily swayed. In the rearview mirror, Alex
caught Everett looking utterly content, lounging lazily.
Muttering to himself, he thought: It's not that the missus is lacking stamina; it's Mr. Everett who's being a
handful!
The car pulled up at the school gate. As soon as the door opened, Mateo bounced out with excitement. Everett
noticed his collar was askew and pulled him close, kneeling to fix it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTwo kids, looking remarkably similar, dashed over with eager little steps.
They chimed in unison, "Hi, Mr. Everett!"
Everett turned to see Mateo's friends, Dylan and Cindy, who had quickly becfamiliar to him. He gave a slight
nod and stood up to address the trio, "Make sure to look out for each other, alright?" While he wasn't as
outwardly worried as Selena, it didn't mean he didn't care. Fatherly love just wasn't something he expressed
easily with words.
All three kids nodded obediently.
In their eyes, Everett was like a towering mountain, a strong and formidable figure they naturally admired.
Cindy, clinging to Mateo, eagerly declared, "Mr. Everett, I'll take good care of Mateo. Can | marry him when |
grow up?"
Dylan just sighed, "..........."
Mateo blushed, pulling his hand away.
But Cindy was relentless, wrapping her arms around his, showing her possessive side.
Dylan couldn't hold back anymore, pulling his sister away and scolding, "Cindy, you used to say you'd marry Mr.
Everett when you grew up! Why the switch to Mateo now? And
you're so young, have sshame!"
QUMS
With her hands on her hips, Cindy retorted, "Mr. Everett already has Auntie Selena, so | need a new target."
She gazed dreamily at Mateo, "So what if we're young? Adler said you gotta start looking for a husband in
kindergarten!"
Thinking of their unreliable cousin Adler Jaime, Dylan could only face-palm.
How embarrassing!
But Cindy was undeterred. She believed in grabbing her chances and ran to hug Everett's leg, pleading, "Mr.
Everett, please don't let Mateo marry anyone else. Can | cask for his hand when | grow up?" Alex found the
kids' innocent chatter amusing and let out a chuckle.
Everett, who once wasn't fond of kids, had softened since becoming a dad, especially after losing Haley, making
him more tolerant of little girls.
He rarely smiled, but he did offer
Cindy a small smile now. However, he didn't make any promises.
