Chapter 256 New House Rules

Studying and Mommy are two different matters, after all, they thought.

Under Jack’s interrogation, Hanson patiently explained, “I’m just talking with your mommy.” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Do you need to talk with your mouth so close to Mommy’s? Obviously, the children didn’t believe him.

Then, James said solemnly, “Looks like we have to make new house rules for you. First, you are not allowed to be in Mommy’s room this late at night from now on.”

They’re even bringing out the house rules? Such creative children. But if they’re talking about house rules, does that mean they’ve already seen me as a family? However, he thought otherwise upon noticing the angry expressions on the children’s faces. He then shook his head helplessly, as he knew that these brats were still acting hostile against him.

Looking at the current situation, Hanson thought his efforts earlier today were all in vain. Nevertheless, it was not as though he wanted to stay in the children’s good graces by teaching them and answering their questions. It was because he genuinely liked them. Otherwise, he wouldn’t give them a second glance even if they were Vania’s children. Looks like I have to find an opportunity to come to terms with them, or they’ll just keep interrupting me at every step of the way. He knew he would grow weary if the situation kept up.

Looking at the stalemate between them, Vania said dotingly to her babies, “Alright, Mommy will sleep with you all tonight.”

“Yay, that’s great. We can sleep with Mommy tonight.” They immediately went into her arms with angelic smiles on their faces.

Hanson knew instantly just what Vania meant when she said they were lovely. Looking at the children acting like this, he truly thought these children were heaven’s gift to Vania. However, the four of them gave him a smug look with hints of provocation, as though they had won. The recipient of their looks became very upset, as they had interrupted the mood between him and Vania. Then, he gave Vania a sorrowful expression, as though asking, “What about me? Am I supposed to spend such a long night alone?”

With a pat on Hanson’s shoulder, Vania said in a tone similar to his moments before, “You’re already a grown man. I believe you’ll have no problems sleeping by yourself.” She threw what Hanson said earlier back at him.

Hanson wanted to argue that it would be problematic for him to sleep alone. He wanted very much to listen to her bedtime story, to be pampered by her, and to fall asleep by her side. However, looking at Vania overwhelmed by the children, he could only sigh and take his leave. I’ll definitely be back, he thought.

When Hanson had left the room, the four of them secretly reveled in their victory before they turned their attention to their mother and said innocently, “Mommy, can we sleep now?”

With the four of them in her arms, Vania left her worries behind as she looked at their innocent smiling faces. “Of course. Let’s sleep together. Mommy will tell you another story too.”

“Okay,” the four of them said in unison.

The next morning, Melanie was notified by Chris that the program crew had started the rehearsal for the first phase of the program. After that, she waited backstage and went up to Chris upon seeing him. With a frown, she said, “Have you found out who the judges are? Don’t worry about the money. You

just have to find a way to buy them out. I must become the winner in this program.” Perhaps she was used to being spoiled by the people around her, as she was acting just like a spoiled child when talking with Chris.

However, Chris only gave her a cold glance. “The program team is very good at keeping their secrets.”
