My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 2067

I turned to look at Hendrix. With his eyes squinted, he seemed ready to make his move. He had a disdainful but also proud look on his face. It seemed as if he was saying, "You'll have to listen to me when it comes to teaching our children."

The moment I sighed, the door swung open from the inside with a loud thud.

Wynn glanced at me and saw Hendrix standing behind me. His bright eyes were glued to the ground as he left the room with his head down.

I crouched down to his eye level. My hands grabbed his arms as I asked with a smile, "Wynn, aren't you hungry? Why won't you come and eat? If you don't, Aurelia won't be able to enjoy her dinner. You don't want her to starve do you?"

Wynn shook his head and replied softly, "No I don't, but I made a mistake. If I make a mistake, I must be punished."

"Well..." I pondered for a moment and pretended to sound serious. I nodded and said, "You did make a mistake."

Wynn hung his head even lower and didn't dare to reply.

"Do you know what you did wrong?" I pressed.

"I shouldn't have talked back to daddy." Wynn pursed his lips. Feeling aggrieved, he continued, "I shouldn't have said that daddy was wrong."

"So, since you've put it that way, you think that daddy is right and I'm wrong?"

"No," Wynn immediately looked up at me and nervously explained, but he couldn't put his finger on what exactly was wrong here. "That wasn't what I meant. I..."

He was so upset that tears started welling up in his eyes.

My heart melted. I immediately pulled him into my arms and tried to comfort him. I whispered, "Wynn, my dear, you haven't done anything wrong. If you think you're in the right, you should stand by it and express your thoughts. Neither your daddy nor your mommy is always right. We make mistakes too. Only by pushing people to improve, can they learn the truth about things. Today, you've made your own judgement and expressed your views. That is worthy of praise, do you understand?"

Wynn sniffed and held back his tears. He pulled away from my arms and asked, "Is that true? Was it really daddy's fault?"

When he said this, he stole a glance at Hendrix from the corner of his eyes. But when he met Hendrix's emotionless stare, he became so frightened that he quickly looked away.

"You and daddy are both in the wrong." I shook my head, pursed my lips and said, "Daddy is wrong because he was stubborn and didn't listen to his family's opinions. You're wrong for not respecting daddy. Did you know that we both worked very hard for a long time to bring both you and Aurelia into this world? Daddy suffered a lot to protect us. He may have a bad temper, but he's a man of indomitable spirit. Tell me, Wynn, having a father like him, isn't he worthy of your respect?"

Wynn nodded without hesitating, "Yes, he's worthy."

Noticing that he had understood the general idea, I patiently continued, "Today, in the car, you called daddy a fascist. Is that the right thing to say?"

"No." Wynn shook his head, he looked very sincere.
