Robbie frowned and eyed the adult anxiously. “My impression of you has always been brutal and intimidating… Did you fight with Mommy? Is that why you locked her up?”

Zachary took a sip of his wine and replied, “We didn’t fight, and even if we did, I wouldn’t lock her up.”

So that’s why children are afraid of me. I’ve been giving off a bad impression.

Robbie pressed on, “Then where is she right now?”

Zachary evaded the serious matter. “She’s in another city, and she’ll be back tomorrow night. Don’t worry. I’ll ensure her safety.”“Can I trust you?” Robbie was still worried.

“I swear.” Zachary’s lips curled up as he wanted to win over the child’s trust.

“Then that’s great!” Robbie heaved a sigh of relief as he drank the grape juice. Then he placed the glass down and excused himself politely. “I have to go. Thanks for the treat.”

The child was so young, but he had good manners. His every move gave off a gentleman-ish impression and infected the arrogant and cold Zachary.

He placed his wine glass on the table and stood up to send the child off. “Don’t worry and stay at your Mr. Henry’s house. Your Mommy will come for you guys after a few days.”

Robbie bowed at the adult to show his respect. “Thank you. I enjoyed our talk today. I think I have a greater understanding of you now.”
