"Mommy, what Ella means is that time we kidnapped Emily for eighty million. We were just playing with her and didn't hurt her," Alex said as he pushed open the door and walked in.
"So you three plan to keep deceiving everyone forever? You'll have to meet her sooner or later," Sophie said seriously.
"Then… can it not be this time? Maybe next time?" Ella said awkwardly.
"You three little troublemakers. Now you realize how troublesome this is," Sophie gently poked Ella and Alex on the forehead with her finger.
All three stuck out their tongues.
"Mommy, what are you doing in the room?" Hale also pushed the door open and came in.
"Nothing. We were talking about that time we kidnapped Emily and took eighty million," Alex told him.
"Oh right. If we see Emily this time, we'll be exposed," Hale looked at Sophie pitifully. "Mommy, can we…"
"I know, I know. You three little rascals really don't let me have any peace of mind." She ruffled Hale's hair. "Remember to return the money."
