Chapter 372 A Mysterious Call

Good thing that the glass was not that full, otherwise the juice could have spilled over.

Lily carefully walked all the way to Nick Cage. Once she reached him, she handed over the juice to Nick Cage. He grabbed it, took a sip, and said, "Not bad. I like it! Thank you, Lily."

Lily was very happy. She started to jump and dangled her two pigtails very actively.

Soon after, the rest of the sextuplets, Julie, Josh, and Daniel, came to Nick Cage and Veronica Parker and each handed them over a glass of juice.

As Veronica Parker watched everything that was going on around her, she couldn't help but suddenly feel that she and Nick Cage were truly getting old as they accept the filial piety of serving tea and water from their growing children.

There was that kind of illusion in this picture. An illusion of a complete family – Nick Cage as the daddy, herself as the mommy, and their sextuplets as their loving children.

Victoria Parker shook her head and told herself to stop imagining. She realized that she was thinking way too much. She knew that though complete; they will never have a family like that.

She and Nick Cage will be old all right, but they will never grow old together. If anything, she knew that they will have parted ways before they reached that age.

"Mom?" With the help of Julie, Josh successfully handed over the glass of juice to Veronica Parker. She accepted it but didn't answer.

Nick Cage turned his gaze towards Veronica Parker and saw that she was in a trance. She reached out and grabbed her hand. He was surprised to feel how cold the temperature of Veronica Parker's hands was when he touched them.

Veronica Parker regained her mind and looked at Josh, who was about to cry for he felt that he was dismissed by his mommy. Upon seeing this, Veronica Parker quickly withdrew her hand from Nick Cage, looked at the glass of juice, and drank everything in it. "Oh wow, Josh. That juice tasted so good. You are so awesome! How did you make such a delicious drink?"

Josh immediately smiled through his tears.

"What's on your mind?" Nick Cage's black eyes were too sharp that it penetrated Veronica Parker's soul.

"Nothing." Veronica Parker vowed to never let Nick Cage know what she was thinking earlier.

Nick Cage did not ask any more questions, but it was obvious that the atmosphere in the air changed from a very fun, light mood to an awkward silence.

Veronica Parker, who was sitting next to Nick Cage, clearly felt the change in the mood.

She took a glance at Nick Cage to see what was going on. She could not help but admire the good looks that Nick Cage has, but at the same time, she could not help but fear the cold look that he sported on his face.

Veronica Parker still couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. He was fine just moments ago. Did she say anything wrong?

It was always so cloudy and sunny with Nick Cage!

Moments later, the game of pretending on the plane was over. They all went back to the hall. The six little ones were all actively roaming and playing in every corner of the house.

Nick Cage, on the other hand, went straight back to the study.

Veronica Parker was curious as to what set off his mood. She could not understand what type of emotion Nick Cage was in. All she knew was that he was cold as ice when he got off the plane.

She was in the middle of these thoughts when Isabella pulled her to the side, "Was it true? Mr. Cage's father came by last night?"

"Ah?" Could this be why Nick Cage was in a bad mood? Veronica Parker thought. So, Nick Cage answered the phone last night because of Kevin Cage? But his mood was normal at that time!

"But they say, he didn't let him in. He stopped him outside as if it was not his father."

Veronica Parker knew that Nick Cage's ruthless style could do that. He once did it with Chloe Bowen, so it was not impossible for his real father, Kevin Cage, to experience such treatment from him.

But whenever Veronica Parker thinks of Kevin Cage, she couldn't forget what Chloe Bowen and Eden Cage did.

How did Kevin Cage feel after abandoning his wife for his favorite Chloe Bowen, and ended up being cheated on after?

"Well, it's not that Kevin Cage has severed ties with Nick Cage, right? So, what was he doing here?" Veronica Parker realized this and asked.

"I think you can be forgiven for saying that you are here to see the children. Besides, they are his own grandson." Isabella said.

Veronica Parker's beautiful brow is slightly frowned, his own grandson? How can someone get a grandson without having a son? I wonder if it was Chloe Bowen who told him about the six little ones.

She knew that she can't hide everything for so long. Kevin Cage would know sooner or later. It's just unfortunate that Nick Cage was able to stop him from knowing anything!

In Winter Villa, people were locked up inside and could not get out without the permission of Nick Cage. In the same manner that people outside cannot get in unless he approved.

This place was stricter than a prison!

In the afternoon, Veronica Parker and Peter played on the bed, and before long, the latter fell asleep.

Veronica Parker, holding his soft little body and smelling the smell of milk from his mouth, prepared to also take a nap.

Shortly, her cell phone rang.

Veronica Parker immediately got up and walked out of the room to prevent Peter from waking up because of the noise.

When she was ready to answer the phone, she turned a little pale when she saw who was calling. She decided to just press ignore and didn't answer at all.

She was about to put the number on the blacklist, but a text message came in:

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW WHERE YOU CAME FROM?

Veronica Parker froze, turned around, and went to the room where she used to stay.
