Chapter 3866

Chapter 3866 Liberty would one day be head of the Farrell family, and Duncan marrying her gave them both strength and support. It made sense—they were a team.

With a smile, Liberty added, “We’ll rely on each other, trust each other, and move forward together.”

Duncan nodded, “Exactly.”

When Mrs. Lewis brought Sonny into the room, everyone doted on him.

Rocco squeezed in next to Mrs. Lewis, reached out, and pinched Sonny’s cheek, grinning. “Sonny’s cheeks are so squishy! They feel great to pinch.”

Sonny blinked in surprise but pinched Rocco’s face right back. “Brother Rocco’s cheeks are nice to pinch too!”

Rocco laughed, “Ah, mine feels a little rough. Kids have the best skin.”

He was about to pinch Sonny again, but Mrs. Lewis swatted his hand away, scolding him gently, “Stop pinching, or you’ll hurt Sonny.”

“When I was Sonny’s age, my brothers and sisters would pinch my face all the time, saying how soft it was,” Rocco complained. “Grandma, you never stopped them! Now that I finally have a little cousin, you’re all protective. You love Sonny more than me.”

Mrs. Lewis chuckled, “You’re a troublemaker now, always getting into things like a little monkey. I get a headache just seeing you.”

It was true—at his age, Rocco was quite the handful. He loved taking things apart, from appliances to even doors, but he rarely put anything back together. They often had to call repairmen or even buy replacements because of his tinkering. And when he was home, even the family’s pets would hide, sensing that Rocco would pet them relentlessly.

Only Duncan, his stern fourth uncle with the scarred face, could still get Rocco to behave.

Mrs. Lewis shooed him away, “Don’t corrupt Sonny with your antics.”

Rocco protested, “Grandma, before Sonny came, you told me over and over to look out for him, play with him, protect him, and treat him like my little brother. Now you won’t even let me spend time with him!”

Determined, Rocco took Sonny’s hand. “C’mon, Sonny, let’s go play. It’s boring here, and we don’t understand all the grown-up talk.”

Mrs. Lewis sighed and finally let them go.

Rocco’s mother quickly warned him, “Rocco, you better be careful with Sonny. Don’t let him fall, don’t take him near water, and definitely no climbing trees! If Sonny even loses a hair, you’ll be in big trouble.”

“Mom, I got it,” Rocco replied with a hint of impatience, then tugged Sonny along.

Before they went outside, Sonny turned back. “Mom, Uncle Duncan, Brother Rocco and I are going to play outside!”

Though Rocco could be mischievous, he was polite and respectful, greeting Liberty as “Fourth Aunt” and Duncan as “Uncle.” Around Duncan, especially, he behaved his best.
