Chapter 779
Since Lucian was unaccustomed to being close to others, he hesitated for a while before throwing himself into
Armand's arms.
Carrying both children effortlessly in his arms, Armand kissed Lucian on the forehead and said gently, “Thank you
for looking after your younger sister.”
Pouting, Amanda turned to him and whined, “He didn't look after me. All he did was bully me. Not only did he pull
my hair, but he also added something spicy to my orange juice!”
Lucian pursed his lips, momentarily dumbfounded. “That happened so long ago. Besides, you were the one who
started it.”
“I didn't! You were the one who bullied me!”
Armand stared at them wordlessly as they started arguing. In fact, they probably would have gotten into a tussle if
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthe had not been carrying them. Nonetheless, he could not help feeling amused by their behavior.
Siding with either of them won't do any good, so it's better to remain silent.
“Now that you have a father, both of you have clearly forgotten about your mother. Why don't the three of you go
home together, then? I'm just the odd one out,” Genevieve remarked coldly.
Amanda leaned over and kissed Genevieve, then said in her piping voice, “I love you the most, Mommy! It's just
that we missed Daddy a lot because we haven't seen him in ages, so don't get jealous about that, Mommy.”
Armand laughed. “What do you feel like eating when we get home? I'll make everything you want to eat.”
Hearing that, Genevieve snorted. “Does that mean you won't make the dishes I want to eat anymore? What a
heartless man you are!”
“I'll cook everything you want to eat too.”
“Mommy! Mommy! Let's find some difficult dishes and ask Daddy to prepare them. If they taste bad, you can make
him kneel for as long as you want. How's that?” Amanda suggested.
Genevieve broke into a grin and pinched the little girl's cheek playfully. “I've never seen anyone try to cause trouble
for their father like you.”
“I'm helping you to bully Daddy,” Amanda replied solemnly.
Still carrying the kids in his arms, Armand strode out of the arrival hall. “Okay. In that case, the three of you should
look up plenty of delicious dishes, and I'll try to make them all for you,” he said with a laugh.
After Genevieve got into the car, she waited until Armand fastened her seat belt before saying jealously, “You
kissed the kids, but you didn't kiss me. Am I not your little darling?”
Armand leaned in and gave her a deep kiss, then kissed the corner of her lips as he pulled away. “Of course you
are. My one and only,” he murmured with a low chuckle.
Tugging at Steven's shirt, Amanda said in her babyish voice, “Look, Mr. Sullivan! They're bullying you by showing off
their affection in front of you.”
Steven merely stroked her head in response. I'm already used to it by now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhile in the car, Amanda listed the dishes and desserts she felt like having. Armand had Genevieve jot them down,
then took them to buy the ingredients once they arrived at the shopping mall near Regality Gardens.
Steven had no wish to intrude on their long-awaited family reunion, so he excused himself and left.
As Amanda sat in the shopping cart, she would point at the snacks she wanted, and Armand would help to get them
for her. She also kept calling out to him every now and then. Instead of getting frustrated, he thoroughly enjoyed it.
“Daddy, shall we go to the beach tomorrow? I want to gather seashells,” she told Armand.
He flashed her a smile. “I'll accompany you anywhere you want to go.”
Delighted, Amanda raised her arms and cheered.
When they returned to the condominium, Armand carried all the ingredients to the kitchen, threw on an apron, and
started preparing lunch.
Although Genevieve wanted to help him, he would not let her. “All you need to do is wait for the food to be ready.”
“Okay, then.” She gave him a quick kiss and added softly, “If I'm happy with the meal, I'll reward you tonight.”
Armand felt his mouth run dry from that kiss.
