Chapter3804
With a cheerful smile, Sonny held up two fingers and said to Hank, "Other kids only have one dad, but I have two."
Hank felt uneasy hearing about Duncan and Liberty''s uing marriage, but he couldn''t say much. After all, he had been the one to let go of Liberty first. He was the one who betrayed their love and their marriage.
No matter how ufortable he felt, Hank had no choice but to wish Liberty and Duncan happiness. Deep down, he knew Duncan was a better man than he ever was. Not only was Duncan more sessful, but he was also more devoted in love. Hank sighed inwardly.
Who could he me for his situation? Only himself. His dissatisfaction had led him here.
When he achieved some sess, he looked down on Liberty. He cheated on her, and now, he had lost everything. Once an executive earning a million dors a year, he now couldn''t even find a decent job. Nopany wanted to hire him for fear of upsetting Zachary. To make ends meet, he was driving for a ride-hailing service.
He had squandered every opportunity life had given him.
If only if only he hadn''t turned against Liberty, hadn''t listened to his parents and sister, and had treated Serenity like his own sister. He could have had a thriving career, a happy family, a loving wife, and a son who didn''t call another man "dad."
Hank asked, "Do you like Uncle Duncan, Sonny?" Sonny nodded eagerly. "Yes, I like Uncle Duncan. Dad, he''s not a bad person. Don''t say he''s bad. He''s really not."Original from N?velDrama.Org.
Sonny could already tell the difference between good and bad people.
At first, Sonny was scared of
Duncan when Liberty met him. But
over time, as he got to know Duncan, he realized Duncan wasn''t scary or bad at all. Children are perceptive, and Sonny could see that Duncan genuinely cared for him.
Hank forced a smile and said, "You''re right. Your Uncle Duncan isn''t a bad person. I shouldn''t have said those things before. When you live with him, make sure to be good and listen to him. Don''t make him angry, or he might not like you anymore."
Even though Duncan treated Sonny well now, as his biological father, Hank worried about the future. What if Duncan''s attitude changed? What if Sonny started to resent him? And what if Liberty and Duncan had a child together- would that child take all the attention?
Hank feared Liberty''s affection might shift to a second child, leaving Sonny feeling left out.
"Dad, Uncle Duncan won''t dislike me. I''ll be good and won''t make him mad," Sonny reassured him, confident in his ce. He knew he was lovable. Everywhere he went, people admired how cute he was.
Who could possibly dislike him?
Hank hugged Sonny tightly for a moment before releasing him and setting him down. He took Sonny''s hand and began walking toward Serenity and Zachary.
"If Uncle Duncan ever stops liking you, and your mom is too busy to take care of you, go to your aunt, okay?"
Serenity would always look after Sonny. Hank trusted her more than anyone.
As much as Liberty loved her son, Hank worried that things would change once Liberty and Duncan had their own child. Would Liberty still be as devoted to Sonny? Would Duncan love him as much when he had his own biological child?
