Jenson usually had an icy cold expression. When he suddenly smiled, it looked like flowers blooming in springtime where a myriad of colors came bursting out. His smile was so beautiful that the surrounding colors faded.
Finally, Jay reached out to pinch on Jenson’s cheeks. Within the viciousness was a gentle threat. “Delete this out of your memory completely.”
Jenson obediently nodded.
Finally, the night was approaching. Because of Jenson’s peculiar dietary requirements, Jay decided to bring the boys home.
All of a sudden, Jenson broke the rule and said, “Daddy, let’s eat out.”
Jay was stunned. “Can we?”
Jenson pouted and lightly nodded his head.
Jenson‘s temperament was always clean and tranquil. Each word he spoke was always after thorough deliberation.
Jay was surprised yet excited. “Jenson, when did you overcome your fear of eating out?”
Jenson tilted his head upward 45 degrees to the sky. “Mommy said that the brave have no fear, the travelers have no borders, and the wise have no worries.”
Jay raised his brows. A vulgar and ignorant Rose could impart such wisdom to Jenson?
Jay called the food and beverage department of Grand Asia to book a place and was preparing to bring the kids over when Old Master Ares suddenly called.
Old Master Ares rumbled in anger, and his voice was louder than thunder. “Why?”
Jay mumbled, which was a rare occasion. “We need to wait for the Ares family to obtain the child’s custody before we can change his name.”
Old Master Ares was relieved. “I was wondering what the matter was about. Just mere custody? I heard Josephine mention that Rose had gone through many hardships to raise the boy all these years. The child is educated, well-mannered, and obedient. The Ares family will not treat her shabbily. Give her a sum of money...”
“Dad, money can’t solve the problem.”
“Then give more.”
