Chapter 1358: Chapter 1361

“No. You know I’m rich and powerful. If I had that thought, I would’ve done it, wouldn’t I?”

Weston had valid points, but Elias remained cautious against him.

“I don’t believe it. Why did you follow us here if not for Emma and me? You must be planning something against us!”

Weston was lost for words. He coughed lightly, poured himself a glass of water, then gulped it down. He looked at Elias, who was like a mini version of himself.

Weston told Elias, “Have you ever thought of something else? What if I’m after your Mommy?”

Elias widened his eyes at once. “No way! Don’t you know? There are many men after Mommy! You’ll have to get in line!”

Weston asked, “What? After her many years abroad, she now has many men?”

“Of course, there are many! Uncle Edward has been courting Mommy for years. He came to all of Mommy’s performances without fail, but Mommy did not accept him.”

Weston’s face turned grim at the first half of the sentence, but his face got a little better when he heard the latter.

Weston patted Elias on the head. “It’s okay. I’m willing to wait.”

Weston looked him straight in the eye and said as gently as possible, “So you don’t want to see me because you’re worried I’ll take you guys away?”

Elias nodded in reply, which gave Weston an inexplicable feeling at heart. He muttered, “I thought you guys hated me.” It was the first time he felt this way.

Elias paused at Weston’s muffled reply and suddenly felt a little bad for him. Although he still did not like him that much, he did not hate him as much as before.

Elias said, “You must have done something wrong to Mommy. That’s why you and Mommy are separated. Looking at you, it seems like you know you were wrong…”

“Yeah. I know. I was wrong.”

Elias said, “Since you’re not trying to take Emma and me away, we won’t have to hide from you anymore.”

“Thank you,” Weston replied with a sincere tone.

“But whether Mommy will accept you or not has nothing to do with me!”

“I know.”

The father and son had a pleasant conversation. Weston did not realize that Elias’s fear was the reason why the siblings were avoiding him before. Weston eased his expression after thinking it over. He felt a little dizzy, so he closed his eyes to rest for a while.

Elias frowned, seeing Weston’s exhaustion. He reached out to touch Weston’s forehead and froze when he felt the burning heat. “What’s wrong with you? You’re burning up!”

Weston said nothing and kept his eyes shut tight.

“Are you okay? Are you going to die?”

Elias shook Weston’s arms, but Weston did not respond. Elias was shocked and rushed to call the doctor and the nurse. Then, he called Stella too.

Lucas soon came over. As soon as he came in, the little boy rushed into his arms and asked anxiously, “What should we do? He’s so hot! He’s not going to die, is he?”

Lucas was rendered speechless and thought, ‘What a good son of Weston’s.‘

Lucas rubbed Elias’s head and reassured him, “Don’t worry. It’s just a fever. It won’t kill him.”

He told him, “If you’re worried, call Mommy and ask her to come and stay with you.” “I know!” Elias said, “I’ve called Mommy on the phone.”

Stella and Yvonne saw Elias waiting anxiously at a distance when they came over in a hurry, so Stella rushed forward and picked Elias up in her arms.

“What’s wrong?”
