What Maison was feeling worried and apprehensive about was whether he did the wrong thing by making that decision.
He didn’t dare to say that, so he casually came up with a reason. “It’s nothing. I just feel that Uncle Talton is very good. Daddy has never taken me to the playground or to eat any delicious food.”
He shut himself in the washroom just because of this?
But to be honest, Zivon had always been too busy with work, and he really didn’t have much time to spend on Maison too.
Xavia comforted, “It’s also because your daddy is hoping to give you a better home. Besides that, your daddy has to take responsibility for the whole family. The fact that he can spend every night with you already makes him a qualified father. Aunt will talk to him later and try to ask him to spend more time with you.”
“Be a good boy and don’t be sad anymore, okay?”
“Mm-hmm.” Maison threw himself into her arms as he absorbed her unique warmth.
Outside, Zivon who was about to enter the lounge happened to hear the conversation between the both of them. He had a very deep look in his eyes.
Xavia’s attitude toward him had been lukewarm from last night to this morning. He initially thought that she would definitely be saying bad things behind his back. After all, it was not as if she hadn’t done it before.
He didn’t expect that she would actually comfort Maison. She even spoke up for him and said good things about him. She was really an unpredictable woman.
Zivon gathered his thoughts and pushed the door open. After walking in, his eyes fell on Maison, who was in Xavia’s embrace and he said, “It will be your birthday on the day after tomorrow. You should think about what you want to do, and I’ll make time to accompany you.”
“Really?!” Maison opened his eyes wide open in disbelief. He completely didn’t expect such an unexpected surprise when he came up with such a casual excuse.
Zivon hummed slightly. “But your aunt and I have something that we need to do tonight. So you should go back home today and sleep with your great-grandma, okay?”
“Mm! This is great! I can finally go to the playground with Daddy!” His little voice sounded very excited and happy.
He had never played with his daddy before all this while!
Maison felt that his daddy was actually not that bad. Aunt was right. His father had to shoulder the responsibility for the entire Burton family and he was always busy with work. However, he would go back home to accompany him to sleep every night, and his daddy would always bring him by his side whenever he went on a business trip. He was really a pretty good father.
Perhaps, he might be even better compared to Uncle Talton if he could be together with Aunt.
He was suddenly in an extremely good mood and he said happily, “Daddy! I suddenly miss my great-grandma so much now. I will go back home now.”
After that, Maison ran up to Xavia and whispered in her ear, “Daddy’s stomach is not very good. You have to help daddy to drink less when socializing.”
