Chapter: 1197
Leia quickly agreed with Xavier and secretly gave him a thumbs up. 'This playboy is quite eloquent. He managed to explain the situation with just a few words.'
"Fine, I'll wait a little longer." Renee finally changed her mind. "Thank goodness."
Leia released Renee's hand with relief. She exchanged glances with Xavier and they smiled at each other. For the first time, the two of them were on the same side.
That evening, they drank some wine and had a long conversation. The children were restless that evening. Even though it was already past eleven o'clock, they were still not feeling sleepy. They insisted that Renee keep them company.
The children's bedroom was decorated like a starry sky. Renee lay in the center of the bed with a child on each side. The children clutched Renee's arms like a couple of kittens.
"Mommy, Daddy has been gone for so long. When is he coming back? Abby misses him."
Abby pouted, clearly feeling a bit unhappy.
The two kids were dissatisfied with Stefan to begin with. Stefan managed to regain some favor when he stayed on Sun Island for a few days, but his sudden disappearance disappointed the children again.
�Well, it's a bit complicated.�
Renee felt a bit awkward.
Adie asked expressionlessly, "What's so complicated about it? He abandoned us, right? It's not the first time he�s done it, so it's no surprise.�
�Ugh, no, that's not it...�
Renee decided to be honest with the children. She then asked them sincerely, "If you're Mommy, do you think Mommy should fight alongside Daddy or stay here and wait for him to come back?�
The two children barely hesitated. They spoke in unison, "We should fight alongside Daddy, of course!�
Even though Adie was small and adorable, he carried himself with a mature and calm demeanor that belied his age. He was smarter and more composed than many adults.
The little boy rubbed his chin and came up with a plan. "Maybe you can stay here with Abby while I go to Beach City to check out the situation there. If the problem is small, I'll just take care of it myself so you won't have to come forward.�
�Adie is amazing. Let Adie handle it. He can solve any problem...�
Abby sang Adie's praises while looking at him with starry eyes. At the same time, she did not forget to insult Stefan. "I knew it. Handsome Daddy only has a handsome face, but he's actually really weak. He gets caught by the enemy so easily and now Mommy has to go rescue him. Adie is much stronger than he is.�
Adie shook his head and sighed with a youthful maturity. "Like I always say, without me, this family is done for!�
