Chapter 1618
"Okay, thanks. I'll go see them now," said Corinne.
She walked out the door with Francine naturally following behind her.
Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose before walking out after them.
As soon as Corinne cout, she saw the kids having Sunny surrounded and asking him for chips.
'Sunny must've bought them a lot of junk food on the way,' thought Corinne.

"Alright, hand them over! The kids aren't allowed to have too many chips," said Corinne.
Hearing her voice, the kids immediately turned and shouted in unison," Mommy!"
Corinne walked up to the kids and knocked them each on the head. "Have you all forgotten what Mommy told
you? You can't have any junk food without askingfirst!"
The kids immediately lowered their heads in shand pouted.
Feeling sorry for them, Sunny walked up to Corinne with the pack of chips still in his hand and said, "Corinne,
you're scaring them. Do you have to be so strict with them when they're having fun outside? Plus, it's not like
they eat junk food all the time, so what's wrong with them eating it now?"
Corinne glared at Sunny. "I'm scaring them? I'm their mother, so how can | scare them? As for you, you shouldn't
have bought so much junk food for them! What if they get a tummy ache from eating all that junk food? It's not
like you'll be the one taking care of them if that happens!" "Corinne, | bought all of this junk food from the
supermarket, and they're not poisonous. Why will they get a tummy ache from eating them? As their uncle, |
promise you that I'll take care of them if they get a tummy ache from eating junk food. Won't you please give
them a break and let them eat or play whatever they want just for the day?"
The kids were grateful to Sunny for speaking up for them, and they fervently hoped that Corinne would agree.
They tugged her clothes and looked up at her with big sad puppy eyes.
Corinne, of course, did not agree. She did not want them to get sick after all.
She was just thinking about how to let the kids down gently when Lucas suddenly asked, "Ahem! What are you

seen a ghost. "When... When did you get here, Lucas?"
Lucas narrowed his eyes in displeasure and said instead, "You don't seem like you welcme here."
Sunny laughed awkwardly. "Hahaha, of course not! | was just surprised to see you here. That's all." After that, he
poked Corinne in mock anger." Corinne, how could you not tellLucas is here, too? It would've savedfrom
being startled."
Corinne rolled her eyes at him. "You haven't done anything wrong, so why are you so afraid of him?"
Sunny was speechless. 'She's right. | haven't done anything wrong..."
However, he was afraid that Lucas would stop him from seeing Xante, and this would make Xante unhappy.
When the kids saw Lucas, they ran up to him and hugged his legs happily.
