Chapter 843 It's Hard to Send Him Away

Phoebe stared blankly at him. She knew that for Theodore to say "treat them as his own" was already very difficult.

He had truly come to terms with accepting the existence of the kids.

He moved to Lakeview Estates to show his sincerity, but the more he did, the more guilty she felt.

As for why she felt guilty, she couldn't figure it out herself.

"Thank you!"

"No need!" Theodore's tone was indifferent. "After all, the kindness I show them, you will have to repay me double. Be prepared for that."

Phoebe rolled her eyes. Capitalists indeed never make a losing deal.

Hubert, Boris, and Noomi quickly returned after washing their hands, chattering away, while Ethan followed behind, looking sullen.

Phoebe noticed and saw Hubert, Boris, and Noomi crowding around Theodore again. She walked over to Ethan, squatted down, and asked, "Why are you unhappy today?"

Ethan twisted his fingers, looking at the lively scene by the sofa, and said softly, "Aunt Phoebe, are Hubert, Boris, and Noomi going to have a dad soon?"

Phoebe was taken aback. Following his gaze, she saw Theodore, though serious, patiently listening to Hubert, Boris, and Noomi. She knew Ethan was missing Donovan. "Do you miss your dad, Ethan?"

Ethan lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes. "I-I don't."

Phoebe leaned in to hug him, thinking that Donovan was still alive but avoiding them, which was really too much. Look how wronged Ethan felt.

When Ruby came back in the evening, she would have to talk to her about taking Ethan to see Donovan.

Dinner was lively. Hubert, Boris, and Noomi kept giving Theodore the best portions from their bowls, saying it would help him recover quickly.
