Terence's eyes twinkled. He lowered his head and looked into Thomas' eyes. With a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, he turned into a father in an instant.
Terence bent down and picked him up, with his head against his. His heart had not yet returned to calm, but he could control it freely.
"Thomas, have you been good lately? Did you make trouble for aunt Lisa?"
Thomas pouted and looked at his father discontentedly. The tiny face was stiff but looked very cute. It was chubby, which made people want to pinch it.
"Thomas has always been a good child!" he replied.
Terence's eyes froze and returned to normal. He smiled bitterly and thought, 'Such a young man is so smart. I don't know who his personality follows.'
Hester's smiling face flashed through his mind, and his heart ached slightly.
"Yes, Thomas has always been a good child."
Terence said slowly with infinite sadness. His obedience had always been obvious, but at a young age, he was more mature than his peers.
He knew too many things too early. He just asked once about the fact that he didn't have a mother, and then he didn't say anything again. When he was sleeping alone, he never cried. It was not only comforting, but also heartbreaking.
Lying on Terence's chest, Thomas was a little sleepy with a flicker of his eyes. Last night, he was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep because he had known his father back.
Although he was not as noisy as other children, he kept turning over in bed. Now he was in his father's arms. He felt sleepy and couldn't resist it.
"Dad, let's go home!"
Feeling warm in his heart, Terence's eyes twinkled. The simplest words caused a huge tremble. Subconsciously, he cared about the sense of belonging of the family!
"Yes! Go home!"
On the other side, Hester put away her suitcase, looked up at the time, opened her mobile phone and dialed Austin's number. She walked slowly to the window and looked at the tall
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
yone? I think this word is very suitable for you!"
"I'm very busy!"
Hearing Austin's words, Leo stopped joking. His long and thick eyelashes drooped slightly to cover his dark eyes.
"I will take good care of her for you. Don't worry!" Leo promised.
"Huh!"
Austin smiled, not in the mood to continue to entangle with him. His mind was now full of Hester, and he could not stop anything.
"If possible, you can try to persuade her to come back."
"I know what you are worried about, but she always has a knot in her heart. This is the key point that she has never opened her heart to you.
As long as she can survive, I believe that your future will be unimpeded. There is never a free lunch in the world. Just wait patiently."
"Patience?" Austin repeated the sentence as if he had heard a big joke. He had protected her for many years, and he could give up everything for her. Was this also called impatience?
"So what is your so-called patience like? Tell me so that I can learn from you!"
Leo frowned and sighed helplessly. Obviously, Austin was jealous and hopeless.
"I didn't mean that. Don't go to extremes just because Hester came back. Besides, it's not that she doesn't want to go back anymore. What do you mean by that? It seems that she's fine." Leo sighed helplessly.
