Chapter: 723
You are such a sweet-talker.
"Of course. I get to eat super sweet fruits that you personally washed. My mouth naturally becomes super sweet too!
Briar couldnt stop smiling throughout her conversation with Adie.
Although she kept reminding herself that Adie was Renee and Stefans child and that the child would severely delay her marriage into the Hunt family, meaning he couldnt be spared, she couldnt resist his angelic smile. He was so sweet with the things he said that she couldnt help but want to be close to him. She yearned to give him good food and nice clothes. It was insane!
Initially, she planned to get William to send Adie to Water Dock, where he would be handed over to a unique individual. However, she couldnt make up her mind and kept delaying.
Due to the urgent and complicated situation, she steeled herself and decided to send Adie away tonight. She couldnt drag this on�
She held the plate of fruits and sat next to Adie. With his cheeks all puffed up, he looked like a hamster that was munching on grapes. Her heart nearly melted.
Adie was completely focused on the cartoon.
Briar couldnt resist laughing. Adie, do you like Happy Sheet and the Big Gray Wolf? Do you hate the wolf?
Adie shook his head. Not at all. I dont hate the wolf. It might seem bad, but its actually not that bad. Although it wants to eat the sheep in every episode, it keeps failing. I think its not only because the sheep is smart but because it doesnt actually want to eat it. Theyre just playing! l-ls that so?
Of course! Adie reached out to Briar. If you dont believe me, Aunty Desrosiers, you can watch the show with me. After watching it, youll realize its quite adorable despite how everyone hates it. Mommy once told me that nobody is entirely good or bad in this world. If a bad person is willing to be good, he can be a good person too. He deserves to be liked by everyone.
"Your mother� Shes good at sharing important values with you. Briar had a complicated expression on her face after hearing Adies philosophical thoughts.
Why did she sense that there was an underlying message?
But he was only four years old. How could he be so smart? She had to be overthinking.
Adie, what your mother said makes sense, but heres my advice. There are more villains in this world than you imagine. In fact, sometimes, bad guys will always be bad guys. Its hard for people to change. You have to be careful and dont trust strangers too easily. Dont go home with strangers, either. Otherwise, you wont even know if you get sold!
In that case, are you a bad person? Will you sell me to human traffickers? Adie asked.
O-Of course, Im not a bad person! Briar felt a little guilty after being asked that question. She stammered when she answered him.
She had only shared her thoughts so that Adie wouldnt fall into the hands of bad people in the future. In reality, though, she hadnt thought too much about it.
Coincidentally, her mother was the one who taught her this.
Her mother was a homewrecker who humbly served her father. That was how she managed to make his wife leave and create a reasonably comfortable life for Briar. JrNovels.com
