The kids’ praise totally went to his head!
He got so carried away, he called in sick to work just to help Evan fulfill his dream.
Now, he regretted it.
Why did he have to take off today of all days? Couldn’t he have just waited until tomorrow? Tomorrow was Saturday—Evan didn’t even have school!
But regret was useless now.
Clayton saw his son-in-law looking all gloomy and couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. He sighed and said,
“You’re probably better off going to apologize first. Same old drill—if she starts smacking you, just yell for help. We’ll come rescue you.”
Tarquin managed a weak smile. “…Thanks, Dad.”
Out in the living room, Pamela was carrying the baby off to find Lan.
Elliot, Emmett, and Elijah had just said hi to Elysia. The moment they spotted Tarquin walk in, the three little guys dashed over to him.
Elliot whispered, “Dad, Mom found out you called the school for Evan. She’s got murder in her eyes.”
Emmett nodded seriously. “She’s so mad, I think she wants to eat you alive!”
Elijah chimed in, “Dad, she’s probably really going to hit you. Brace yourself.”
Tarquin winced. “…Where’s Evan?”
“Mom kept him upstairs with her.”
“She’s giving him a talking to?”
Tarquin had barely finished the sentence when Evan came trudging down the stairs.
He spotted Tarquin, shrugged helplessly, and said, “Dad, you’re toast. Seriously. Mom’s on the warpath.”
Tarquin asked, “Did you tell her everything?”
“Yeah, I had to! If I didn’t, she’d get even angrier. I do not want Mom angrier.”
