Chapter 1212
Julian was shocked. "Why do you think that way?!" "Because just now, my father chose to first save my sister
without any hesitation. Once again, he gave up on his son when he had to choose between his two children."
Sean spoke just like an adult, his logic impeccable. His eyes didn't seem to belong to that of a three-year-old child.
They had a strange calm Julian didn't expect of him.
Sean placed the pill at the corner of Julian's mouth. "Eat this."
Julian was about to open his mouth, when he heard Sean say indifferently, "It's poison."
Julian was shocked. "You want to poison your daddy to death? Did Enzo Jennings give you this?"
Sean nodded, and then shook his head.
"He gave it to me, but I don't actually want you dead. But I don't want Mommy dead, either," Sean said, looking at
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJulian.
"I thought you'd be able to defeat Enzo when you came. I didn't expect you to be carried in and end up curled like a
ball on the floor. Now that Betty's free, it seems we both don't stand a chance of leaving this place.
"If I don't give you this pill, then Mommy... Enzo Jennings might attack her.”
Julian finally understood the situation. "Did Enzo Jennings threaten you? If you don't give me this pill, Mommy will be
in danger?"
Sean nodded. "Yes. I keep telling myself that you don't love me that much, and I just need to give you this pill. I
don't even need to apologize, because I must protect Mommy.”
But when Sean placed the pill next to Julian's mouth, he realized that reality was completely different.
Poison.
It could kill a person.
If Julian took it, he might never see them ever again.
Julian could sense the struggle in Sean, and forced himself to smile. He caressed Sean's head. "If Daddy died, would
you feel sad?"
Sean thought about it. "I thought I wouldn't."
Yet, the mere thought of it made him teary.
"Never have I not loved you, and never have I loved you less than Betty," Julian said, finally finding a childish side to
Sean.
So, even sensible children needed love from their parents. Just like children who threw tantrums and demanded
attention, they too needed constant proof that they were loved.
But because they were too sensible and often neglected by the adults, they thought they could rationalize things
and grow up normally.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSean looked down, visibly upset and sorrowful.
Julian adored this boy. But sometimes, compared to Betty, he found himself uneasy around Sean.
Compared to Betty, Sean always felt so much more like an adult.
That drove Julian to keep thinking of Sean as an adult. But should he treat Sean like a child from now on?
No.
He couldn't do it.
He believed that doing so wouldn't make Sean happy, either.
Julian would always be smiling at Betty, but now when he was alone with Sean, he found the smile disappearing
from his face. He turned solemn.
"Sean, you're a man. I really can't bring myself to treat you the same way I treat Betty."
He could baby talk, play games with Betty, and tie her hair.
If Julian did any of those with Sean, Sean might not be able to tolerate it.
'You're a smart boy. You should understand that everybody's personality is different. There's no need to compare
yourself with Betty."
"I'm not comparing myself with her," Sean said indignantly. He felt like his father didn't understand him.
