Tears flashed across Jay’s eyes. He was extremely touched by the child's delicate heart.
"Uncle won't hit her. I won’t scold her either. Uncle loves her," he said.
The tears in the rims of Baby Zetty's eyes rolled down a s she said very sadly, "You're lying."
Jay,"..."
"Since Mommy returned to China, you often make her cry. Mommy always cries at night..."
Jay,
"You’re a bad person."
Jay,"..."
Baby Zetty's words made him feel heavy for no reason. It seemed like he still knew too little about the suffering in Angeline's heart.
Jay picked up Baby Zetty, went to the first floor, and instructed Mrs. Zonder, "Mrs. Zonder, make something delicious for the children."
"Alright," Mrs. Zonder responded happily.
She knew that the Young Master was more bark than bite.
Jay put Baby Zetty down, and she sat on the little sofa.
With both hands supporting her cheeks and tears in her eyes, she looked at him cutely.
"Why are you looking at me?" Jay asked curiously.
"Aren't you going to send me away?" Baby Zetty asked pitifully.
Jay was shocked. She was his daughter. Why would there be any reason for him to send her out?
Baby Zetty said with certainty, "You're so kind to me all of a sudden. You must have a hidden agenda, and I feel uneasy about it. You're letting me eat my last meal, just like Jesus' last supper. After I eat, then it’s goodbye, isn't it?"
Baby Robbie walked over and held Baby Zetty's hand tightly with an expression that showed he would rather die than be separated from his sister.
Jay noticed for the first time that his Baby Robbie was actually sentimental. This character really resembled Angeline's when she was young!
