Chapter 32: You Are Not Nicole
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
This time it was a big mess. I couldn’t even imagine Alpha thinking of me as some kind of promiscuous, crazy woman with nothing better to do.
Looking at the closed door of Alpha’s house again, I carried my baby Nicole home with mixed feelings.
As soon as we got home, Winnie exclaimed, “Nicole? Why did you change your clothes?”
Glancing at me again, Winnie managed another smile. “Uh, it’s okay… I didn’t say anything.”
Noelle was carried home by his mommy. He was worried that he would be exposed, but when he saw that Nicole was not home, he heaved a sigh of relief.
I didn’t notice that Nicole, who was in my arms, had become much calmer and quieter. After learning that Nicole was safe, I placed her on the sofa and looked at her seriously. “Nicole, are you thinking of sneaking out to play again today?”
Noelle was confused. He opened his mouth but still obediently followed his mother’s words and answered, “Yes…”
“Ugh.” I sighed and then rubbed the top of her soft head. “Mommy knows you guys are bored at home and want to hang out. Mommy promises to take you guys out for a walk whenever I am free, okay?”
The sensible Winnie and cute Nicole both nodded heavily, blinking their big eyes and listening intently to me.
“But, Mommy said that there are a lot of bad people out there. You’re all still young, and you’re easily hurt, remember?” My tone turned serious.
Seeing that the two kids had nodded again to show that they understood, I hugged them in satisfaction and said, “This time, Nicole made a mistake. Remember, you can’t do this next time. Alright, Mommy needs to continue sleeping.”
As soon as Luna was gone, Noelle began to fidget. He had the feeling that Winnie was looking at him with such suspicion that it made him squirm.
“Winnie… Why are you staring at me…” Noelle couldn’t help but ask as he felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at.
At the same time, he subconsciously looked at the door and began to worry.
If Nicole had really gone out to play, when she returned later, he would surely be exposed!
He could not pretend to be her for long, he had to hurry home!
Supporting her cheeks with both hands, Winnie frowned and suddenly said firmly, “You are not Nicole. Who are you?”
“I…” Noelle was stunned for a moment before quickly retorting, “I am Nicole. Look at me, I look exactly like Nicole…”
“You said you look exactly like Nicole, so you are not Nicole!” Winnie shook her head and said.
“Besides, Nicole brought a bike with her when she left the house, and she wasn’t wearing the same clothes as you are now. She must have been scared when Mommy found out that she had sneaked out, but you didn’t react at all…” Winnie enunciated each word as she scanned Noelle’s body.
Seeing that Winnie had already seen through everything, Noelle felt deflated. He shrugged and admitted, “Fine, I’m not Nicole.”
“So who are you? Why do you look exactly like her? Even Mommy couldn’t tell,” Winnie whispered, leaning closer to Noelle.
Winnie’s high IQ deduced that all of Nicole’s abnormalities and peculiarities during this period of time were related to Nicole’s substitute. Subconsciously, she felt that Noelle did not have any ill intentions.
“My name is actually Noelle. Alpha is my father. Nicole and I met once by chance…” Seeing that he couldn’t hide anything from Winnie, Noelle began to slowly tell his story.
The two little figures huddled together.. One of them even looked at Luna’s room from time to time, keeping a lookout.
