Perfect Husband, The Destined One novel Chapter 2057

Darryl took a deep breath and looked at his son. "Ambrose, the battle is over. Don't be stubborn; stay here with Eira, please?"

Before the war had ended, Darryl had channeled all his energy to deal with the North Moana Army; he had no time to worry about his two children. After they had defeated their opponent and the situation was stabilized, he would not let his son and daughter leave with Yang Jian.

"Darryl!"

Ambrose glared at Darryl coldly. "You don't have to waste your time talking to me. I won't stay, not today. Also, wherever I go in the future has nothing to do with you, got it?"

Eira went over and took Ambrose's arm in her hand as she said softly, "Let's stay with Dad. He has apologized to you more than once. Even if he had done something wrong before this, let bygones be bygones. Can't you forgive him?"

Ambrose looked sullen. His eyes flickered irritably, but he did not reply to her.

Eira bit her lips and continued to persuade Ambrose. "We have been fighting with him all this time; can't you see that he cares for the wellbeing of the world. He is not from the South Cloud World, yet he is here to help them to stop the war. Aren't you happy to have a father like him?"

"Cares for the wellbeing of the world?"

Ambrose felt as if someone had rubbed salt on his wound that he had buried deep in his heart. He was agitated; he sneered, "Yes, he is ambitious and broad-minded. He has to take care of so many people in the world, but what about my mother? What is my mother to him? She gave up her beautiful youth and waited for him for years. What did she get in return? His ignorance for more than ten years!

"He protected these strangers, but he could not even be bothered to protect his own woman!
