fallen outside the window.
Vehicles passed by the entrance of Moon Hotel.
In the magnificent exterior,two figures stepped out of a Bentley.
Joshua's gaze was unconsciously fixed on the little boy.
The boy was wearing a hat and a mask. He couldn't see his face clearly, but there was an indescribable

As Anika stepped out, she saw Joshua walking straight toward her.
Anika's palms instantly broke out in cold sweat, and she instinctively wanted to avert her gaze and turn Joshua,however, spoke first, "What a coincidence."
Anika had nowhere to hide and could only pray that Raina and Evan wouldn't come up at that moment. "Mr.Conan, are you also here to eat?"Anika said."I have something to attend to, so I won't disturb you."
She was about to leave when she heard Raina's voice.

Joshua heard the sound and looked toward Raina and Evan.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Raina's heart skipped a beat,
Anika held her breath, afraid that Evan would call her mom". Surprisingly, Evan ran towards Anika.
"Hello, Ms.Carey."
After speaking, he pulled Raina's hand again.
"Mummy,I'm so hungry. Let's go have a meal with Ms
Carey soon."
Raina snapped out of it."Alright, let's go eat."
"Let's go,Anika."
Raina grabbed Evan's hand and pushed Anika along "Mr.Conan, I had to have dinner with my friend, so I didn't chat with you for long.
Anika quickly led them into the room.
Anika closed the door. Her tightly wound nerves finally loosened.

either."
"Fortunately, Evan reacted quickly, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable, Raina thought, feeling scared at the mere thought of Joshua's eyes just now. Evan also gently comforted them.
'Mummy, Raina, don't worry.I knew that in front of strangers, Mum had to pretend to be single. That way, Mum could find a father for me and William."
Anika held Evan tightly in her arms, her voice choked,
"Baby, I'm sorry!"
Anika thought, "Baby, I'm sorry.I wanted to tell you the truth, but I didn't want to lose you all!"
As the eldest son, Evan always behaved maturely.Evan rarely acted spoiled in front of Anika,unlike
William.
Evan rarely asked Anika to hug him.
Evan didn't expect that a hug would make him happy
Anika wiped away her tears and flicked Evan's forehead.
"You are not allowed to make decisions on your own in the future, otherwise I will spank your butt."
