Chapter 606 People In Love Tend To Bicker
There wasn’t a need to choose. Of course, Elliot wished to attend kindergarten just like his brother.
Before Cecilia could say anything, Elliot eagerly hugged Nathaniel and said ingratiatingly, “I want to go to kindergarten. Daddy, you’re the best. Can you let me attend the same kindergarten as Jon?”
Jonathan couldn’t hide his disdain upon seeing how shameless and sycophantic his brother was. I don’t want Eli to attend the same school as me.
“No way,” he said.
Elliot resembled Jonathan closely but had a natural talent for charming others and ying the sympathy card. No matter where he went, he was always the center of attention. Whenever Elliot turned on his charm, Jonathan never stood a chance.
Elliot hadn’t anticipated Jonathan’s rejection. He looked at him pitifully. “Why? Do you not love me anymore?”
Jonathan frowned in disdain, hoping he could tear up his book and use it to silence Elliot.
“Keep that up and I’ll throw you out of the car,” he said coldly.
His expression and antics were a carbon copy of Nathaniel, and that annoyed Jonathan.
Elliot pouted and pulled away from Jonathan, clinging onto Nathaniel.
Nathaniel recalled the first time he met Cecilia. She hade to his house and mistakenly thought he was Nichs. Back then, she had followed him around, tugging at his clothes and pleading with him in an adorable manner. “Please, Nathaniel. Please help me. I’m begging you. You’re the best. Please?”
Looks like Eli inherits Cecilia’s traits. If only I could have two more daughters just like Cecilia…
“Eli, you’re in poor health, so how about we postpone going to kindergarten? Maybe after your surgery in the second half of the year?” Cecilia didn’t want to shatter her son’s hopes, but she was more concerned about his health.
Hearing this, Elliot tightened his grip around Nathaniel, clinging to him. Sc*mbag daddy. I’ve already helped you hold hands with Mommy. Now it’s your turn to help me.
Finally, Nathaniel spoke up. “Boys aren’t that delicate. I’ll have Mason arrange his school admission procedures tomorrow.”
Cecilia didn’t show her anger in front of the children.Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.
Once they returned to Daltonia Vi, she summoned Nathaniel, intending to have a private conversation with him.
Once they were alone outside, Cecilia said, irritated, “You know Eli’s condition. If he goes to
kindergarten and happens to get hurt, what then? Also, with so many children in the kindergarten, what if fights break out? Have you thought it all through?”
Cecilia wasn’t against the idea of letting her son learn to be independent. She was just worried about his condition.
Nathaniel didn’t give in as usual. “He’s my son. He’s not that delicate. You will ruin his future if you keep coddling him like this.”
Coddling him?
Cecilia clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palm. “What gives you the right to criticize how I raise my child? Have you ever taken care of them, even for a single day?”
“It’s not like I don’t want to care for them!” Nathaniel retorted in a cold voice, “Did you hear how Jonathan addresses me? Mr. Rainsworth!”
He gripped her wrist tightly. “Tell me, why is my son calling me ‘Mr. Rainsworth?”
Cecilia stood her ground. “You promised to get a divorce, and you were with Ste. If I were to tell you about them, how could we ever coexist? Do you want them to be neglected, just like I am?”
The two children heard them arguing. Hiding in a secluded corner of the room, they peered out. curiously.
Jonathan furrowed his brows. “I thought you said Mommy had already epted him.”
Elliot was also puzzled. “Everything was fine. I don’t know why they started arguing again. You know how it is, people in love just love to bicker.”
Jonathan shot him a re. As if I would believe you.
Elliot, having enough of Nathaniel and Cecilia’s constant bickering, made his way outside.
