Chapter 497: Daddy Has a Lover
Even after entering the room, Soren remained very cautious.
She lowered her voice and whispered in Magnus's ear, "I saw Daddy at the hospital just now."
Magnus blinked and looked at Soren in confusion.
He was sick, and Nora might have contacted Isaac. So it made sense that Soren would see him at the hospital.?
Soren continued, "I saw Daddy with a woman I didn't recognize, and it looked like she was pregnant. It seemed like the baby was Daddy's!"
Magnus's eyes widened suddenly, full of disbelief.
"How is that possible? Daddy and Mommy are a couple. My teacher said only couples can have babies. How can Daddy have a baby with a woman we don't even know?"
Magnus pouted, full of rejection.
He didn't want to believe that Isaac would have a baby with anyone other than Nora.
Soren continued, "But on TV, it's always showing married guys cheating with other women, having secret babies, and then divorcing their wives. Some even plot with their lovers to get rid of their wives and kids."
Magnus's face turned pale, and he shrank his neck in fear, his voice trembling, "Daddy wouldn't kill us and Mommy, would he?"
Soren patted Magnus's shoulder, "Magnus, don't worry. TV shows are over the top. Our Daddy isn't that bad. The worst he might do is leave us and Mom for his mistress."
Magnus remained silent, not comforted at all.
Magnus clenched his fists tightly and suddenly said, "I want to call Daddy and ask him if it's true!"
He still didn't believe that Isaac would find a mistress.
Isaac loved Nora so much; how could he find a mistress?
As Magnus spoke, he was about to run out to find a phone to call Isaac, but Soren stopped him.
"Magnus, are you stupid?" Soren looked speechless. "If you ask Daddy directly, of course, he's definitely not going to admit it. Haven't you watched TV carefully? Nobody ever fesses up when you confront them; they might even turn it around on you."
Magnus frowned, "Then what should we do? I still don't believe Daddy would cheat."
Soren thought for a moment, "We'll figure it out ourselves!"
Magnus pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, let's investigate first!"
"By the way, does Mommy know?"
Soren shook her head firmly, "Mommy doesn't know. After I saw Daddy at the hospital, I tried to hint to her, but she didn't get it."
"She even told me that there are many people in the world who look and sound alike, and she said I must have misheard."
"But I'm very sure I didn't mishear or missee! That was Daddy!"
"No one else has such a nice voice and such a handsome back!"
Magnus said seriously to Soren, "Soren, since Mommy doesn't know yet, let's keep it from her for now. If Mommy finds out Daddy has a mistress, she'll be heartbroken."
"We'll investigate first. If Daddy really has a mistress, we'll get rid of the mistress for Mommy!"
Soren nodded vigorously.
In their little heads, they only thought about keeping their parents together and not letting them separate.
So, the only thing they could think of was to drive the mistress away and bring Isaac back to Nora, so they could continue to live happily as a family.
Magnus and Soren began to discuss how to investigate.
After a while, Nora finished making a simple dinner and came out of the kitchen to the living room, but she didn't see the kids.
"Magnus, Soren, where did you go?"
Magnus and Soren immediately came out of the bedroom, running towards her with their little legs.
"Mommy, we're here!"
Nora smiled and asked, "What were you doing in the bedroom?"
Soren giggled, "I went to the bathroom and asked Magnus to accompany me!"
Nora laughed, "At your age, do you still need Magnus to accompany you to the restroom?"
Soren stuck out her tongue playfully, "I wanted to talk to Magnus, so I asked him to come with me."
Nora rubbed her little head, "It's fine to have Magnus with you at home, but when you're at kindergarten, you can't ask other boys to accompany you to the bathroom, okay?"
"Okay, I know. I'll only ask Magnus to accompany me!" Soren nodded obediently.
Nora said, "Alright, let's go eat. It's so late already. After dinner, take a bath and get ready for bed."
She held each child's hand and walked to the dining room.
After dinner, they rested for half an hour, and then Nora urged them to take a bath.
By the time everyone was done, it was already past midnight.
Without needing any coaxing, the kids quickly fell asleep.
The next day, the three of them woke up late.
Nora called a nanny to come over and help send Soren to kindergarten.
The kindergarten wasn't strict about tardiness, so it was okay even if she was sent at noon.
The nanny took Soren to the kindergarten gate, and Soren said to the nanny, "You can go back now. I can go in by myself."
The nanny smiled, "Okay, you go in first. I'll leave after I see you go in."
Soren said in a sweet childlike voice, "No, I want to watch you get in the car before I go in. I only need to take a few steps to get in, so don't worry about me!"
Seeing Soren insist, and indeed she only needed to take a few steps to get to the school gate, the nanny nodded, "Alright, I'll go first. Be good and listen in class. I'll come to pick you up in the evening."
Soren nodded obediently.
The nanny turned and got in the car.
As the car started, she looked back through the rearview mirror and saw Soren turning towards the school gate. Only then did she feel relieved, increased the speed, and drove away.
However, when Soren was just a few steps away from the school gate, she suddenly turned around and ran to hide behind a tree by the roadside.
After the nanny's car was completely out of sight, Soren came out from behind the tree and ran back the way she came with her little legs.
Soren ran for more than ten minutes to the roadside and flagged down a passing taxi.
"Excuse me, sir, could you please open the door for me? I can't open it." She was too short and too weak to pull the door open.
The taxi driver didn't open the door but opened the window, glancing behind her before looking back at her. "Hey there, little one, where are your parents? Why are you by yourself?"
Soren said, "My daddy and mommy are at home. Sir, can you take me home?"
The taxi driver shook his head, "No, you're too young to be alone. I can't take you. I'm afraid your family will think I'm a kidnapper and beat me up without asking questions."
