Adie was fuming. With his hands behind him, he ran to a river. Facing the billowing waves of the river, he pretentiously put up a dull look.
Renee walked over to him quietly. When she saw his back helplessness was the only thing left in her. She inevitably became mesmerized by how awesome one’s genes could be. They were indeed strong.
Adie appeared gloomy and dull before her just like a mini-Stefan. When he grew up he might even become colder and more aloof than Stefan.
Carmine Pawnshop was located at the border of three countries so its surrounding environment was rough and chaotic. It was a lawless place a refuge for bad hats and ne’er-do-wells. However this area alone was serene and calm as if it was a utopia in the midst of the chaos.
No one dared to scheme against Adie regardless of how bad and complicated the people out there were.
Here Adie was regarded as the emperor’s successor heir to the Night Demon. This meant he would be safe even if he stood by the bridge to enjoy the scenery or even if he decided to walk the curb with his eyes closed.
Renee stood behind Adie with her arms across her chest. Silence engulfed her as she took in the scenery with him.
“Humph!”
As Adie was immersed in the view his fury intensified. He picked up a few stones and threw them across the surface of the river making a few beautiful instances of stone skipping.
“Wow Adie you’re very awesome. When did you learn how to do stone skipping?”
Praises inevitably escaped Renee.
She learned stone skipping for a very long time but she had yet to master it. So she admired the people who could do beautiful stone skipping vehemently.
Adie turned around and glanced at her before he pouted and stated “Mommy I thought you didn’t want Abby and me. Go ahead and take care of that bad guy. Why did you come back?”
“Alas my good son. Are you still mad? I told you that I didn’t abandon you and Abby deliberately. I had a secret trouble I needed to settle.”
“What’s your secret trouble? Didn’t you have a change of heart and betray Daddy? Then you eloped with Daddy’s brother didn’t you? What a big secret trouble!”
“Er…”
Renee struggled to handle the situation.
Adie had matured a lot more after being separated from his mother for half a year. Consequently Renee was forced to give in because of how good he was at his sarcastic remarks.
“Where did you hear that from? It’s all nonsense. Don’t believe it.”
“I looked it up on the Internet. Daddy was too sad because of your betrayal so he chose another woman. He’s going to marry another woman. Abby and I will lose our Daddy by then.”
When he reached that point his bright eyes soon became somber. Clutching the stones in his hands he said “No one will ever teach me stone skipping again from now on.”
In the past he never enjoyed fatherly love so he felt that it was not a big deal and was unnecessary.
However he and his family of three led a worry-free life on Sun Island after their reunion with Stefan. He found that he still loved Stefan very much and he yearned deeply for fatherly love.
He missed how Stefan placed him on his shoulders. He also missed having Stefan teach him how to fish in the sea and play volleyball with him on the beach… His mother could not replace his father in a lot of things.
“So is that why you are angry at me? Is that the reason you’re ignoring me?”
Renee asked him softly. Deep guilt was buried in her eyes.
Her heart was filled with deep gloom. She could not imagine what great disappointment was burdening Adie’s young soul.
“Honestly I’m not mad at you.”
He heaved a long sigh and turned to walk to Renee holding her hand and apologizing obediently. “I’m sorry Mommy. I know that I shouldn’t blame you. You and Daddy have the right to be with someone else and the right to pursue your happiness. I’m just… afraid that you and Daddy will give us up one day.”
“Silly boy. It’s impossible. It will never happen!”
“Why not? Didn’t you and Daddy leave us? You went missing without saying anything. And Daddy… I went to him that day and it seemed like he didn’t see me. He held another woman’s hand and walked past me.”
