Chapter 2006

When I left the study, I almost knocked into someone who was at the door when I opened the door.

Luckily, I was quick to react, so I just missed him.

"Wynn, why aren't you having your dinner? What are you doing here?" I bent over and whispered to him.

Wynn didn't say anything. His black, grape- like eyes stared straight at Serene. He was very alert.

Serene shook her head and said self-deprecatingly, "It seems that I'll always be an enemy in the eyes of that little fellow."

Only then did I realize that due to the Marshall family, Wynn had to accept the fact that she almost became his step-mother. He held a grudge against her ever since.

I quickly raised my hand to pat Wynn's head and comforted him, "Madam Forbes is my friend, don't be rude."

Wynn knitted his eyebrows tighter. "If she becomes my mother, what will you do? I don't want her, I want you!"

Serene and I looked at each other, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

After a while, she imitated me. She bent down and looked somewhat proud of herself. "Hey, Wynn, I promise you, I will never take your mother's place. A real man should be more generous. Let's bury the hatchet, okay?"

"You're not lying, are you?" Wynn asked defensively.
