Chapter 634 Finding Daddy

Xavian and Clayton focused all their attention on the laptop screen.

Due to their intense concentration, their small bodies instinctively leaned forward nearer to the screen.

“Clayton, Xavian, what are you boys looking at?” Natalie peered from behind with a frown.

Caught red-handed, the two boys frantically slammed the laptop’s screen and looked over their shoulders with an

awkward expression. “Mommy, we aren’t looking at anything.”

They were obviously looking at something from their reaction.

Natalie arched a brow and asked, “I want you to tell me honestly. Are you sure you weren’t looking at anything?”

“No,” Xavian and Clayton chorused swiftly at her question. Their hearts were pounding as they lied.

“Fine, since you say so. Then, show me the laptop.” Natalie stretched her hand out, palms up.

Clayton holding onto the laptop, twisted his body left and right with a look of hesitance, not wanting to give it to

Natalie.

“Clayton Nichols, give it to me.”

“That-”

“Clayton!” She raised her voice.

Clayton knew Natalie would be infuriated if he refused to give in any longer. Bracing himself, he placed the laptop

onto her open palm. “Here you go, Mommy.”

Flipping the screen up, Natalie thought she would see the boys’ secret, but it was just an online game.

“An online game? Why are you hiding this from me?” Natalie asked.

“O-Online game-” Clayton parroted from confusion. They weren’t playing any games earlier, so why was it showing

that instead?

Knowing the reason, Xavian immediately cut Clayton off. “We were playing the game earlier, Mommy. Clayton and I

were really into it these days. We hid it from you because we didn’t want you to scold us for forgetting our

homework from playing it the whole time.”

“It’s fine for you to play games, but you have to play them in moderation.” Natalie advised, “I believe you can

manage your time well between playing games and studying, so you don’t have to hide it from me.”

“Okay, Mommy,” chorused Xavian and Clayton. They released a relieved sigh seeing as Natalie bought their lousy

lie.

That was close. Mommy almost finds out about us searching for our biological father.

Once Sophia’s break ended, Natalie returned to the table and continued teaching the former about herbology.

Seeing the coast was clear, Xavian and Clayton continued to whisper in front of the laptop.

“Xavian, weren’t we searching for that guy’s whereabouts?” Clayton frowned. “Why did the screen show an online

game when Mommy looked at it?”

“I developed a program in case Mommy was the one who opened the laptop. The screen will automatically toggle

to the online game if the camera distinguishes Mommy’s iris.” Even though Xavian had made the necessary

preparation, his heart was still racing from the close call earlier.

“You’re so smart.” Clayton patted his chest, thinking about the close call earlier. “At least tell me you’ve developed

the program and installed it on the laptop. My heart almost jumped out of my throat earlier.”

“I had forgotten all about it, so I didn’t get to tell you. It was too sudden when Mommy found out, so I couldn’t have

told you then. Luckily, Mommy didn’t find out about our plan.” Xavian lowered his voice to a whisper. “Mommy

hates it when we bring our biological dad up. Remember how upset she was when we brought it up long ago?

“If she finds out we’re tracking that man’s whereabouts, intending to meet with him, Mommy will probably punish

us severely.”

“I know that, but we have no choice, Xavian.” Clayton continued somberly, “If we want to know the truth, meeting

that guy is probably the quickest way.”

Xavian nodded with agreement.
