Chapter 339 She's taking a shower and can't answer your call right now.
Magnus bit his lip stubbornly and said, "Anyway, we live at his house and can see him anytime we want, but we can only see Mortimer after school."
Soren pouted, "But we haven't seen Daddy for two weeks."
Magnus glanced at her indifferently and said, "We didn't see him for three years before, and we were fine, weren't we?"
Soren pouted, not knowing what to say.
Magnus said in a wistful tone, "For the past three years, Mortimer has been with us, taking care of us. Are you going to abandon Mortimer for someone who never cared about us before?"
Soren shook her head vigorously, "I won't abandon Mortimer, but Daddy is different from Mortimer."
Magnus said, "Yes, he's different. Mortimer is better to us, loves us more, so we should love Mortimer more."
Soren bit her finger, thinking that Magnus made a lot of sense.
But Isaac was still their father.
"Mommy, if you don't want to go with us to Mortimer's house, just let us off the car, and we'll go by ourselves!" Magnus looked at Nora and said in a childlike voice.
Of course, Nora couldn't let them off the car.
They were too young to wander around outside; it would be very dangerous.
Worried about Magnus's emotional state, she had no choice but to turn to Mortimer's house.
When they arrived at Mortimer's house and Nora parked the car, she took out her phone and sent a message to Isaac: [Magnus wants to see Mortimer, so I have to take them to Mortimer's house. We won't be back for dinner tonight, sorry.]
Isaac, who had already returned home and was about to go into the kitchen to cook for them, suddenly received Nora's message.
He looked at the message, his face darkening.
Mortimer was really good at manipulat Magnus, bringing Nora to his house.
Did Mortimer think he could steal Nora this way?
Nora had said she had no romantic feelings for Mortimer, that she only liked him and no one else.
He trusted Nora.
Suppressing his anger, Isaac replied to Nora: [Okay, come back early after dinner, I'll be waiting for you at home.]
After replying to Isaac's message, Nora got out of the car.
She found that Magnus and Soren had already run into Mortimer's villa, familiar with the place, looking for Mortimer.
When Nora walked in, she saw Mortimer holding a child in each arm, smiling gently and asking about their day at school.
Magnus was chattering about the fun things at school, while Soren was the one adding details.
Nora could tell that Magnus genuinely liked Mortimer.
Isaac would definitely be furious seeing this.
"Nora, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Mortimer looked up at Nora, his smile gentle and doting.
Nora shook her head, "Nothing, I was just thinking about work."
Mortimer smiled, "It's good that everything is fine. Dinner is almost ready, and it includes your favorite dishes."
Magnus said, "Mortimer, I want to eat Mexican food, can we have Mexican food?"
Mortimer said, "We don't have the ingredients for Mexican food at home. If I ask someone to buy it now, it might take some time and delay your trip home."
Magnus said, "It's okay, we can go home later. Tomorrow is Saturday, we don't have to get up early for school, Isn't that right, Soren?"
Soren nodded vigorously, excitedly saying, "Yes, we don't have to go to school tomorrow, we can stay up late tonight. I want to eat Mexican food too!"
Mortimer looked at Nora for her opinion.
Nora said helplessly, "Since they want it, let's go with their choice."
Mortimer smiled and immediately sent someone to buy the ingredients.
By the time they started eating, it was almost eight o'clock.
The two little ones were eating happily, their faces full of joy.
Seeing their satisfied expressions, Nora felt happy too.
After the two little ones finished eating, Nora and Mortimer finally had time to eat.
The two little ones were playing hide and seek around the dining table. When told to play in the living room, they refused and insisted on staying around them.
Suddenly, Magnus accidentally knocked over a bowl of Pozole Rojo.
A large bowl of soup spilled all over Nora.
Although the soup was no longer hot, the Pozole Rojo can easily stain clothes.
Nora's clothes and pants were instantly stained beyond recognition.
"Nora, are you okay?" Mortimer reacted quickly, immediately removing the bowl from her and helping her stand up.
Magnus clasped his little hands in front of him, head bowed, and said weakly, "I'm sorry, Mommy, I didn't mean to."
Nora sighed, "I'll forgive you this time, but don't play where people are eating next time."
Magnus nodded obediently, "Okay, I got it."
Mortimer said, "You should go wash up quickly. If the chili soup stays on your skin too long, it will start to burn."
In fact, Nora was already feeling the pain.
The entire bowl of Pozole Rojo had hit her directly, and the soup was flowing from her abdomen down to her private parts.
She immediately felt a burning pain in that sensitive area.
Now it hurt so much that her legs were trembling.
But because of the awkward location, she couldn't make any movements or show any reaction.
Hearing Mortimer's suggestion, Nora nodded. She took everything out of her pockets and placed them on the table, then quickly ran to the bathroom.
Once in the bathroom, Nora immediately took off her pants and turned on the faucet, rinsing with cold water.
But even with cold water, the burning sensation persisted.
It felt as if the chili soup had penetrated her delicate skin, and no amount of rinsing could help.
Nora's eyes filled with tears from the pain.
She endured the pain, washing with body wash repeatedly, but it still burned.
Nora could only keep rinsing with cold water to alleviate the pain somewhat.
In the living room, Mortimer sat on the sofa, worriedly waiting for her.
It had been half an hour, and Nora still hadn't hasn’t finished yet. He prayed that nothing bad would happen.
But he was too embarrassed to check.
Just then, Nora's phone rang, displaying an incoming call.
It was Isaac calling.
Mortimer's expression changed.
He didn't answer immediately. When the call came through again, he finally picked up.
"Nora, It's already ten o'clock, why aren't you back yet? Do you need me to come pick you up?"
Isaac's voice came through the phone.
Mortimer paused, then smiled, "Isaac? Are you looking for Nora?"
Isaac's tone darkened, "Why do you have Nora's phone? Give her the phone."
Mortimer said, "Nora is taking a bath right now, so she can't answer your call. I'll let her know you called when she's done."
