Chapter 977 Snatched From Your Hands
Sophia returned to her small pink bed after bidding goodnight, but she was feeling distressed.
This is bad… Daddy has a rival! Mr. Sutton looks so nice when he smiles. He also treats Mummy and the five of us very well. If it weren’t because I’ve lived with Daddy for almost six years, I’d get swayed too! Daddy is here in Yaleview, but why didn’t he show up? Why is he giving another man the chance to pursue Mummy?
Plagued with those thoughts, Sophie tossed and turned in her pink bed. But since she was still very young, she soon dozed off.
That night, Jerome did not leave Natalie’s house. Instead, he stayed the night, sleeping on the living room’s couch.
When Emma woke up to make breakfast, she was shocked to see Jerome on the couch.
“Ahh! You are…”
Emma raised her voice unwittingly since she had been startled. Afraid of disturbing Natalie and the children, Jerome said hurriedly, “Don’t be scared. It’s me.”
At first, Emma had only seen the figure of a man, but now that she recognized it was Jerome, she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Oh, it’s you, Mr. Sutton. You gave me a fright.”

“Natalie and I were up drinking until late into the night. It wasn’t appropriate for me to find a random room to sleep in, so I rested on the couch.” Straightening his clothes, he smiled as he added, “Don’t mind me. I’ll wait for Natalie to wake up and say goodbye before leaving.”
Emma glanced at Jerome, contemplating what he had just said.
The kids have a biological father, but he has never shown his face here over the past month. On the contrary, Jerome seems like he’d be a good match for Ms. Nichols. He’s capable, courteous, and a true gentleman based on my observations.
“I’ll prepare some toiletries for you then, Mr. Sutton.”
“Thanks, Emma.”
When Natalie and the five little ones woke up two hours later, they found Jerome helping Emma in the kitchen.
Natalie rubbed her eyes that were still bleary from sleep and said sheepishly, “Jerome, I was so out of it yesterday that I fell asleep… and forgot all about you…”
Jerome laughed. “Even after not seeing you for a year, you still haven’t gotten any better at holding your liquor, but that’s all right. I’m used to it. Why don’t you and the kids come and have breakfast?”
“Okay.”
Natalie nodded and walked over to the dining table.
The children wore torn expressions as they watched how Jerome doted on Natalie.
After all, a human heart was not made of stone. It was clear that Jerome genuinely cared for Natalie, and if not for their father, they thought he would be a good match for their mother.

“Franklin! Sophia and Xavian! Clayton and Yumi! Why are you just standing there? Quick, come over here,” Natalie called out, gently waving them over.
With that, they walked to the dining table, dragging their feet, and sat down for breakfast.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOne of the dishes was a breakfast wrap.
Jerome prepared one with vegetables and bacon, then held it out to Natalie.
“Huh?” Natalie was puzzled.
“Do me a favor and try this to see if it’s poisoned,” said Jerome.
“How childish!”
Despite saying that, Natalie could not stop a smile from tugging at her lips. She took the wrap from him and started eating with relish.
The children were stunned when they saw that. He’s way too good at flirting! This… It’ll surely give him an edge over Daddy!
Dumbfounded, they stared at the wrap in Natalie’s hands, their eyes as round and wide as saucers.
Noticing how they fixed their gazes on the breakfast wrap, Jerome pulled a plate toward him and began making more, placing one on each of the children’s plates.
“Here, I’ve wrapped one for each of you,” he said with a smile. “Let me know if you want more. I’ll make them for you.”
There was no question that the kids sided with Samuel, but they could not help wondering whether Natalie would choose Jerome over Samuel since she and the latter were still giving each other the silent treatment.
“Thank you…”
All five of them laughed awkwardly, then lowered their heads and started eating.
Daddy, if you don’t hurry up and come to your senses, Mommy will get snatched from your hands!
