Chapter 635 William blinked, and a glint of slyness twinkled in his eye, "But whether Uncle Avery sees Leah as a sister or a girlfriend, that's his secret. He's a celebrity. He can't date anyone he likes. Even if he's head over heels, he can't just blurt it out.” Before William could finish his sentence, Avery choked on his orange juice, almost spewing it across the table.
“You're just a three-year-old kid, so what do you know? Focus on your food." Saying this, Avery shoved a piece of steak into William's mouth, effectively silencing his shocking revelations.
Shrugging, William sighed tically, "Even though I'm only three, having witnessed Mommy's two divorces, I've got more life experience than most kids my age.” At the dinner table, Aurelia, Leopold, and Arnold all choked on their food.
Aurelia massaged her forehead. Although she had only been married and divorced once, in William's eyes, she and Arnold might as well have been husband and wife, especially during those years they spent living together as a couple in Goldstone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe most profound impact of a broken family was always on the children.
She longed to give her child a whole and happy home. But many things in life, including Leopold's heart, were beyond her control.
"William," she said, her voice heavy with emotion, “I'm sorry for the way my issues have affected you. But Daddy, Uncle Leo, and | all love you so much. Whatever choices we make in life, our love for you will never change." William made a goofy face, his playful nature shining through, “I'm okay, really. It's Kane who's got it rough. He's got a wicked stepmom, worse than the Evil Queen in Snow White." Leopold promised, "She won't get anywhere near Kane." Knowing that Aurelia's greatest concern was for Kane, his Achilles’ heel was Aurelia, while hers was their son.
Neither could afford to give their enemies that kind of leverage.
William pouted, "Megan wants to have a baby boy to replace Kane as the heir, but | know she's got a little sister in her belly" Arnold gently patted his head, “How do you know it's a little sister?" "She told me. It's a telepathy between kids,” William boasted, nodding.
Arnold chuckled, "So our William has superpowers? That's pretty awesome." William was always filled with the most extraordinary fantasies.
Aurelia’s mouth curled into a half-smirk, her tone laced with a hint of mockery, "A daughter would be nice. Mr.
Leopold has always wanted one." Leopold glanced at her sideways. He did want a daughter, but only if she was the mother.
He took a sip of his juice, which tasted bitter. Perhaps it was just the bitterness in his heart.
It was an unspoken hardship.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmArnold wrapped an arm around William with joy, | don't want any more daughters or sons. My William is all I need." Before meeting Aurelia, he'd been a committed bachelor, flirting with girls but never getting entangled. He didn't want marriage, a wife, or children. But Aurelia changed all that.
The three years in Goldstone had been the happiest of his life.
He hoped the happiness would continue.
William grinned widely, showing off his pearly whites, "I love Daddy the most." He would never acknowledge Uncle Leopold as his father. Arnold was his only real dad.
Aurelia took a sip of her soup, her heart fluttering anxiously.
If Leopold ever discovered that William was actually Liam, he would probably go mad. But it wasn't her fault.
She had planned to reveal William's identity at their wedding, but he had betrayed and abandoned her.
William's refusal to recognize his biological father was simply a consequence of his own actions.
