Addicted To The Genius Lady With A Thousand Faces

Chapter 752:

After entering Private Room No. 8, Connor not only blatantly ignored Marissa’s piercing look but also audaciously remarked, “Honey, our kids missed you so much that they insisted on coming to see you. I had no other option.”

Marissa slightly curled her lips. The word ‘honey’ made her uncomfortable. Connor had never addressed her that way before. Even when he declared his feelings, he used the formal ‘Mrs. Daniels.’ Using ‘honey’ showcased his possessiveness and jealousy. Recognizing Connor’s motive, Marissa rolled her eyes but said nothing. He was the wealthiest man in the city, and she had to refrain from embarrassing him. The atmosphere grew a bit tense.

Marissa cleared her throat gently and addressed Connor, “Since you’re here, let me make introductions.” She indicated the man across from her and continued, “This is my brother, Kevin.”

Connor was somewhat taken aback. He didn’t anticipate meeting her brother, whom she had mentioned in her dreams. When did she locate him? Was it today? Now, Connor regretted following her here. If tonight was the reunion between her and her brother, it seemed absurd that he had brought the kids here, and she would undoubtedly be upset. But now that Connor was already here, he had to politely greet his wife’s brother.

Connor turned to Kevin, smiled, and greeted him, “Hello, Kevin.”

Lawrence and Lindsay, being quite perceptive, feared the man before them might take their mother away and break up their family, causing them to watch Kevin warily. Seeing their father greet Kevin, they obediently said, “Hello, Uncle Kevin.”

Marissa found it humorous and rubbed her forehead. She felt slightly embarrassed by the situation, but since Kevin was like a biological brother to her, she didn’t worry about appearing foolish in front of him. Kevin first looked at Connor with amusement, then turned his attention to Lawrence and Lindsay. He waved them over, saying, “Come here, little ones.”

At once, Lawrence and Lindsay hurried to Kevin’s side. Reaching out with his long arms, Kevin lifted them onto two chairs. “I apologize, kids. I didn’t know you were coming today, so I didn’t prepare any gifts. But you can make a wish, and I’ll send whatever you want to your home later,” Kevin said.noveldrama

Lawrence and Lindsay didn’t immediately ask for gifts but looked at Kevin with wide eyes. Though they had called him Uncle, they still weren’t sure about their relationship with him. Lawrence asked, “Uncle Kevin, we want to understand our relationship first before deciding on a gift.”

Lindsay nodded in agreement and said, “Yes, we need to understand our relationship first.”

Kevin smiled kindly and replied, “Isn’t it clear? I am your mom’s brother, so therefore I am your uncle. What more is there to understand?”

Lawrence pondered and asked, “We already have an uncle named Shaun, who is our mom’s cousin. How are you different from him?”

Lindsay added, “You’re both our uncles, but who are we closer to, you or Uncle Shaun?”

Kevin, amused, patiently explained, “Of course, I am closer.”

Lawrence’s and Lindsay’s eyes widened in surprise as they looked at Kevin curiously. Kevin continued, “Your Uncle Shaun is your mom’s cousin, but I’m your mom’s brother, making me your real uncle.”

After a momentary pause, Kevin emphasized, “I am much closer to you than Uncle Shaun, okay? He doesn’t compare to me at all.”

“Really?” The kids’ eyes widened further in surprise.

Kevin nodded firmly. “Of course.”

Lawrence quickly asked, “So we can ask you for bigger and more expensive gifts?”

Kevin nodded again and replied, “Definitely. They must be better than what Shaun gives.”

“Yay!” Lindsay clapped excitedly, ready to express what she wanted as a gift.

At that moment, Connor took a seat next to Marissa and gently remarked to Kevin, “Try not to pamper the kids too much, Kevin.”
