Chapter 127: Now, It’s My Turn
Zevian patiently waited by the car parked in front of their house, arms crossed, looking visibly frustrated. His dark brows were furrowed, his eyes ready to shoot daggers and kill anyone who dared to talk to him.
Nearby, John stood quietly, already dressed and prepped for whatever task awaited him today. He wasn’t foolish enough to ask questions, especially not with his boss in a mood like this. Little did John know, he had somehow become the tag-along bait for the day, trapped with the trio.
Before Zevian could release another sigh, a squeal of excitement greeted them from the main door.
"Daddy!" Kiana’s voice chimed brightly, running down the large marble steps of their house at lightning speed. She stopped right in front of him, twirling around in her new outfit. "Look! We’re all matchy-matchy!"
Zevian glanced down at his own attire, blue jeans paired with a simple white t-shirt, and then at Kiana, who wore a white top and jeans. Turning his gaze back toward the house, his eyes landed on Evelyn, who was descending the stairs. She too was wearing blue jeans, her shirt was a white color-blocked one that twinned with them perfectly.
"We really are," Evelyn joined them, smiling brightly at her husband. But it wasn’t enough to change his sour mood.
Zevian opened the door for Evelyn and Kiana to hop into the backseat. "Where exactly are we going today?" He asked, taking a seat beside his daughter. Evelyn was the one who planned their date today and hadn’t given any details this morning, except to take an entire day off.
Evelyn simply smiled and replied, "John knows the direction. He will take us."
Even Kiana had no clue, but she didn’t care as long as she was tagging along with them. "It’s a surprise, Daddy! Mommy didn’t even tell me!" she chirped.
