Chapter 389 A Sad Answer
Just as its name implied, it could only warm him for three minutes and one could be totally aggravated as soon as he started to talk.
Roe did not think that he uttered a disgusting swearword. Instead, he shouted to William, "We have a few dumplings left from lunch. Do you want some?"
With these words, he raised the steamed creamy custard bun in his hand.
He remembered he heard once by accident that his father liked sweet food just as he did.
Although this steamed creamy custard bun was not as sweet as dessert, it was still delicious.
William hoped he would say he didn't want some, but for some reason, he just took it with a smile, when he saw Roe's expression of trying to pretend to be indifferent. "I didn't eat any lunch." William found an excuse for himself.
He ate nothing for lunch, but it was definitely not because he wanted to eat the two buns.
Roe felt strange and said, "Mom said you have someone who takes care of you, so why do they starve you?"
He clearly had the cash, and he saw many uncles come here to take care of him.
was he fooling me again?
Roe had this idea across his mind.
William uncovered the crust off the bun, and it was already cold. He unconscionably cooked up a story, "Oh, maybe my assistant slacked off today."
Being blamed inexplicably for things he didn't do, Alexander couldn't help sneezing even though he was far away from them.
Roe narrowed his mouth. He didn't believe him.
"Do you come here for something?" said William after he took a bite of the bun.
That stubborn little woman would not let her son come to him.
Roe nodded and complained, "Dad, you didn't keep your words." William nearly choked to death with a bite of bun in his mouth. His credibility seemed to downgrade before he pleased his son. What's more, he had no idea when he didn't keep his promise.
Did Vivian talk bad stuff about him behind his back?
William thought about the conspiracy theory about her, and inwardly ground his teeth for that little woman, while he asked roe with a gentle smile, "How can it be? When did I break my promise? Roe just let me know."
"Dad, you said that you would let the big brother who helped me yesterday come here." said Roe in a melancholy voice.
William understood at once. He remained still for a moment, and suddenly bent down, "You really want to see that big brother?"
Roe nodded vigorously with stars twinkling in his eyes.
He remembered that he was taken into someone's arms when he was unconscious. The man just jumped up and down a few times easily and succeeded in hiding in the dark of the night. That kind of cool can only be seen on television, which made the little boy thrilled. "That big brother is a little busy and needs to practice every day. How about I take you to him?" William said with an enigmatic smile.
Roe paused, and looked at William contemptuously, "Dad, do you know you sound like a kidnapper? I'm not a three-year-old!"
"Yes, yes, you are a four year-old!" William nodded.
Roe, "..."
"Kid, the one you need to guard against is not your own dad but others. Don't you trust me? You think I'd hurt you?" William raised his eyebrows and asked.
His heart would bleed if the kid answered yes.
And there was no question that he was definitely Vivian's child, just like a cute little ingrate as his mother.
Roe shook his head, "I believe in my mom and great grandma."
William's chest tightened, feeling heartbroken.
His son was supposed to be a golden boy and enjoyed the best love in the world, but because of his negligence, he could only hide and live in the countryside with an old woman. Moreover, because of his health, he couldn't even do and enjoy the basic activities and happiness like ordinary children.
He, as a father, didn't even know his existence.
Because of this, he was angry with Vivian.
But behind his anger, he felt a deep self-blame and resentment.
He was responsible for all the misfortunes of them.
Seeing the complex expression on his face, Roe thought his words might hurt him, and he couldn't bear to see it and said, "You don't need to be so sad, I don't trust Uncle John either."
Just another arrow through his heart.
So, was he, the real father, actually in the same position as John in his heart?
This was really a sad answer.
William took a deep breath, "Roe, I won't hurt you, don't you want to live with Mom and Dad?"
"But Mom doesn't want to live with you." Well, just the third arrow through his heart.
William suppressed the rising anger, and said patiently, "It doesn't matter, as long as we work together, we can definitely make your mother change her mind. Then we can be reunited as a family of three. What's more, I can let the one who saved you teach Kung Fu." As clever as he was, there was no possibility that he wouldn't notice the little boy's admiration for heroism.
Now in the eyes of Roe, Yellow-hair was a capable man and a hero.
Roe did take a serious thought of it, and almost sold his mom for it.
However, in the end he shook his head, "No, I can't betray mom."
The bad part in William's heart was already a bit manic.
"Well, all right, what do you suggest we do? Oh, you like your uncle John, and want him to marry your mom and see them to give birth to another child and do not care about you anymore?" William said deliberately.
Roe gave him a dirty look, "I am more worried that Dad will marry that old witch and treat me badly."
Roe continued before William said a word, "However, I can help you, but only once, to thank you for asking the man to save my life."
"... There will be a person coming here later to pick us up, and we will go to another nice place to get you recovered. I will arrange that big brother who saved your life stay with you, but you have to persuade your mother. Is that OK?" William changed his tone and said. Finally, there are some gains.
"Would it be dangerous for my mother and me?" Roe pursed his lips and said.
In fact, he wanted to know whether the Angie would live there too.
William understood what he actually meant, and shook his head, "No, only us and some medical staff. Dad is looking for the best specialist to arrange a surgery for you. After you live there for a period of recuperation, you will be able to jump up and down like other child. Do you want your mom by your side during this time?"
Those words all went into Roe's heart.
Of course, he wanted mom by his side all the time, especially when he was sick.
So, this time Roe agreed happily.
But that was subject to pre-conditions. Roe said, "I will help you to persuade mom, but you have to promise that you won't make mom sad, and promise you won't let that old wit...aunt Angie come here to be mean to mom."
William rubbed Roe's head with a complicated expression on his face, which was for appreciation of the boy's concern for Vivian, and also for the slight sorrow of not being deemed as a part of them.
"Okay, Dad promised!"☐☐☐☐☐☐
