Chapter 96
The Love that Never Really Dies
"Why?" Matteo asked with his eyes widened. Mommy won't be here anymore? Why not? Is she
unwilling to do that, or did Daddy ask her not to come anymore? I think it's more likely to be the latter.
Sure enough, Sebastian, who was peering down at the boy, immediately became impatient. âIf she's
not coming, then so be it. Why do you ask so many questions?â âThen, it must be you who don't
want her to come over, right? Daddy, are you still angry about the thing that happened at the
hospital? You can't really blame her because I was the one who called her. Since I assumed that
you're too busy, I asked her to take me there. Don't be angry, Daddy,â explained Matteo. He
thought that his father was angry because of that, and he only knew about it after lan texted him.
He also assumed that his father became jealous when lan chose Sasha over him
Unexpectedly, his father's face became even uglier after Matteo's explanation. âWhy am I angry?
Alright, let me tell you this. From tomorrow onward, Mr. Scott will be taking you to school, and Ms.
Wendy will be taking care of you at home.â âWhat? Mr. Scott?â Matteo was not too happy with this
news. He's actually letting Mr. Scott take lan to preschool every day now? So heâs really not letting
Mommy over anymore? How can he do that? This is so unreasonable of him! I've tried so hard to let
lan spend more time with Mommy and even switched our positions. Now Daddy banned her from
coming just like that? He has no idea how big of a misunderstanding he has caused her! She's feeling
so guilty right now for assuming that I'm the one who's sick! How can he be so thoughtless? Matteo
became furious as well. He tightened his tiny fists, and anger replaced his smile.
âDaddy, do you know that you are really annoying?â âWhat did you say? Annoying?â âYes, I want to
like you, but look at yourself. You lose your temper and bully others as you please. No one likes this
kind of Daddy, and I won't either!â After the disappointed child had expressed his thoughts with
teary eyes, he turned around and slammed the door shut. Sebastian was dumbstruck as he didnât
see it coming from this little guy, and he hadn't heard anything like it from him before. What did he
mean by wanting to like me? Did he not like me before? Am I not his Daddy? What is actually going
on with him today? Is he a different boy? Sebastian was enraged again. However, since his son had
shut the door on him. Seeing that, he contained his irritation and thought of talking to him after he
felt better. Sasha, look at what you've done! When the man left, he still assumed that it was her who
changed his son's temper. â Sasha was serious about leaving with her two children and started
looking up flights on her computer as soon as she got home. Remaining silent, Vivian would still
check on lanâs closed-door as told by Matt.
I have to make sure that lanâs fine. The little girl stood guard loyally. After looking for a while, Sasha
realized there weren't many flights to Clear because of the cold weather, so she could only turn her
computer off in disappointment. âVivi, what are you doing? Where's Matt?â "Huh? Oh, Matt? He's
still in his room. Mommy, are we leaving now?â Vivian was still concerned about this matter and
immediately asked as soon as she saw her mother. Sasha shook her head.
âNo. We will probably be in a day or two. Has Matt come out yet?â Sasha asked. After lan locked
himself in his room, Sasha wanted to coax him. Why is my son acting strange? He didn't respond to
me at all, even when I tried to call for him. Is he feeling guilty that I've found out that heâs sick and
tries to hide from me? That thought stabbed her in her heart. Vivian nodded. âYeah, Mommy. Maybe
Matt didn't want to leave. So please can we stay?â âNo, we have to. Matt's sick. Don't worry,
Mommy will cook first, and I will talk to him later. I'm sure he'll be fine after that.â Sasha soothed her
daughter and went to the kitchen to start cooking. She had confidence in her son as he had always
been very understanding. She believed that he would be fine after talking to him. Unexpectedly, she
found the room to be empty when she went to unlock the door after she finished cooking.
