Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 389

Everleigh chuckled when she heard Theodore's comment on Leon.

She could still clearly remember his disgusted expression when she first met him after returning from abroad.

"What are you laughing at?" He was a little baffled by her reaction.

"Nothing. Let's eat." She would never tell him that she was thinking about the past.

The four of them then headed to the aquarium after the heavy meal.

"Wow, there are so many fishes here!" Adrienne was astonished at the wide variety of sea creatures inside the aquarium.

Alastair was also dazzled. There were some sea creatures that he had never seen before.

Everleigh was amazed as well. She was also surprised at the collection in the aquarium.

"What is this fish called?" Adrienne asked.

"This is called a white sturgeon. They are an endangered species, and might soon be extinct, just like the pandas," Theodore's answer left the three of them in shock.

"Extinct?" Adrienne asked.

"That's right. Scientists have been trying to protect them when they breed, but it's really not easy to protect an endangered species." He stared at the white sturgeon with his deep gaze. It looked quite ugly.

"I feel really sorry for them," Adrienne said with her tearful big eyes.

Seeing her reaction, Alastair said, "It is a natural process for some animals to go extinct. Humans might go extinct too. It's just a matter of time."

Adrienne looked at him in horror and gasped, "Is that true?"

"It is written in the book, Homo Deus. Many things will slowly disappear as time goes on," he nodded solemnly.

The topic sounded normal to him.

Adrienne, on the other hand, pouted, with tears swirling in her eyes. She was on the verge of crying as she said, "Mommy... I... I don't want to disappear..."

Everleigh hurriedly comforted her, "Aww, don't cry, don't cry. Your brother is just messing around with you."

"He never messes with me. Mommy, are we really going to disappear someday?" Adrienne asked in a loud voice. A few other children nearby heard her question. With her crying loudly, the other children started to cry too.

Next, the aquarium was filled with the sounds of crying children.

Everleigh held Adrienne in her arms. She turned around and looked at all the other children crying. She immediately felt guilty.

Meanwhile, Theodore looked at Alastair with a smile and said jokingly, "Wow, impressive, you managed to make everyone cry."

"That's because they're too weak to handle the truth," Alastair responded coldly.

He wasn't making it up. It was really written in the books.

Everleigh didn't want the other parents to blame them for the chaos, so she led the both of them out from the aquarium immediately. They headed to a place with fewer children.

"Adrienne, stop crying..." Everleigh held her in her arms and coaxed her.

She sobbed continuously. Tears were dripping uncontrollably.

"Mommy, I don't want to be separated from you guys..."

"We won't be separated. We will be together forever, as a family," Theodore replied with his deep voice. He sounded firm.

Everleigh turned around and saw the determination in his eyes. Her heart somehow felt warm.

"Well, it all depends on Mom," Alastair said casually.

He knew that everything Theodore had done was just to be with Everleigh.

Alastair didn't have a good impression of Theodore, but he didn't want to put his mother in a dilemma either.

Alastair's words left Theodore and Everleigh dumbfounded.

Especially Theodore. He was shocked to the core, as if he couldn't believe his own ears.

"Alastair."

"Can you send me to the library later? I've finished reading the books that I borrowed last time, and would like to borrow a few more," Alastair shifted the topic.
