That was the only reasonable excuse that Xavia could come up with. It also happened to be the only excuse that could convince Maison.
Sure enough, Maison’s small lips puffed out. “Really?”
“Of course, just like how you adore Little Bun, and she also likes you. We were super duper close with each other. If you don’t believe me, I can show you a picture of the two of us in the past.’
“Maison, I understand what you have in your mind, but there are some things which cannot be replaced. I believe the same about you too. Even if you grow up someday, no one will be able to replace Little Bun’s place in your heart, right?”
Maison wrinkled his tiny brows. Well...it definitely seemed like that was the case. Finally, the little fella was going to give in. Instead, he encouraged, “Then Aunt, you should go for it!”
Xavia finally let out a sigh of relief. As long as Maison would not be disappointed in her, she was willing to say a white lie. She continued, “Then, Maison can watch my live stream in the future. I will say hello to you every day.”
“Mmm.” After the boy hung up the phone, he sighed helplessly. “Well, it seems like Daddy, who is shy on the outside but wild on inside, no longer has any chance.”
When the boy turned around, he was astonished to find his father standing in the doorway of his room. He asked, “Daddy! Did you hear the whole thing?”
‘Damn it! How sad would my daddy be? Just how upset would he get?’
Zivon swept his gaze over his son coldly. After that, he just strode away and headed downstairs. The man did not express any opinion about the conversation he had overheard just now. On the contrary, his noble postures and decisive pace indicated that the matter did not concern him.
Maison’s face turned gloomy.
‘Oh no! Daddy is keeping his sadness to himself. He has reached the point where he cannot even say anything...so pitiful...’
Coincidently, Jenna was in the hallway too. She only pretended to get upstairs when she saw Zivon. Initially, she wanted to tell him that the meal was ready, but that man just brushed past her shoulder in an aloof and cold manner. After that, he even left straight away.
