Chapter 716

John was guarding the door at the moment, making it difficult for the children to try and sneak out.

They looked at each other in exasperation. Nina asked Juan for ideas.

The latter took some time to think. “Why don’t we try baiting him away?”

“How?”

“You and Maya do something to get him to leave while Kyle and I sneak away to find Mommy.”

Maya and Nina looked at each other. “Why can’t you and Kyle be the ones to do that while Maya and I
go looking for Mommy?” Nina pouted.

Juan shrugged. “You and Maya, who always gets lost? Daddy would definitely catch you two before
you see Mommy. Kyle and I are fast. Nina, we’re on the same team here. Don’t get upset over the
small stuff.”

Nina was silent at that.

She looked at Maya and nodded. “Right, we’re on the same team. We need to stick together to go
against Daddy, the big meanie!”

Even though she was reluctant, Nina figured it was better for them to follow Juan’s decision.

She talked with Maya and decided to act sick to get John to bring them to a doctor. That way, Juan and
Kyle would have all the time they needed to sneak out.

They gave each other the signal and started executing their plan.

“Ah! My stomach hurts!”



“My head hurts!”

John was speechless.

He looked at the two, dumbfounded. He had already seen everything the children had done while they
were discussing.

Why does it have to be two of one? Isn’t one enough? These innocent children.

John played along, acting like he was worried. “Are you two not feeling well? I’ll call a doctor to come.”

Upon hearing that he was opting to phone for a doctor, Nina grew a bit frustrated. “Why are you using
the phone? Aren’t you supposed to bring us to the hospital?”

“Yeah! Bring us to the hospital!” Maya agreed.

John sighed. “If I bring you to the hospital and the two boys slip away, what am I supposed to say to Mr.
Seet?”

How did he know Juan and Kyle were gonna sneak out? Nina grew quiet.

At that instant, Maya rubbed her hands together and looked at John with her big round eyes. “They
won’t, Uncle Lindt. They are good children.”

John frowned.

Those two? No way are they going to sit tight!

“How about this? Why don’t I give Mr. Seet a call and let him bring you guys to the hospital instead?”

Juan and Kyle would not be able to get away if their father came.



Looks like the plan isn’t gonna work.

Nina decided to stop the act and stared at John. “You really are a loyal guard dog.”

The man was aware of Nina’s sharp tongue, so he was not agitated. “Your daddy’s too powerful. I have
to be loyal!”

Nina rolled her eyes after hearing his response. She turned around a took a few steps back.

To her surprise, Kyle and Juan were gone.

She looked to the open window. They must have escaped through there!

John noticed it too. He immediately went to the window to check. It’s so high up! They’re really going all
out to meet their mother, aren’t they? Alright then, I might as well turn a blind eye.

Nina and Maya had huge grins on their faces. “Don’t just stand there; help me think of something to tell
your daddy when he asks about this.” John looked at them.

Clare’s Hotel wasn’t far from the estate. After Juan and Kyle got away, they wasted no time, sprinting
towards it.

Soon, they reached the estate out of breath. However, the guards stopped them from entering.

“We’re here to see Grandpa and Mommy. Why are you blocking us?”

“Sir Musgrave is not here right now, and Ms. Nicole is refusing all visitors.”

Refusing all visitors? Mommy must be really sad right now. She won’t even see her own kids.

There were many guards on duty, so the children knew not to force their way in.



“How about we sneak in over the wall fence?” Kyle looked at Juan.
