Chapter 286

Chapter 286

“Eric?” Charlie and Thalia were caught off guard.

They did not expect their son to overhear them.

The couple instinctively looked behind the boy and was relieved to see that no one else was behind him.

Thalia went forward and stroked her son’s head as she explained, “It’s nothing. You heard wrongly. Your father and I were discussing the content of a book we read yesterday.”

“Really?” Eric stood rooted to the same spot.

His eyes, which were originally exquisite and likable, now bore a hint of sternness and chilliness.

He was not completely ignorant. Therefore, he did not believe his mother.

Thalia was stumped. For a moment, she did not know how to pacify her son.

It was her fault for losing control of her emotions when she recalled the past.

Why did she have to go and dig up the past for no reason?

Thalia blamed herself once more.

Charlie intervened at this moment, “Eric, you’re still young. There are many things you don’t understand. Don’t ask anymore. In short, forget what you just heard and don’t tell your elder sister.”

“I was about to tell you the same thing. I don’t want Tiffany to know about this either,” Eric said with a sullen expression.

“I’ll pretend that I never heard what you said today. Mom, Dad, also hope that you will continue to keep this matter a secret just like you have done in the past. Don’t bring it up ever again, please? The boy was practically pleading when he uttered the last sentence.

Eric was aware that his words might sound selfish to his parents.

However, he did not want to see Tiffany agonize over things that happened so long ago…

Charlie and Thalia were very surprised.

They did not know that their eight-year-old son was so astute. He had even sensed something, and that was why he used the tone of an adult to beg them.

When Thalia realized this, she felt even more guilt-stricken. “Silly child, it’s Mom’s fault. We will not bring this matter up again, okay?”

“Okay!” Eric nodded earnestly.
