Chapter 531

Sean had always wanted to bring his parents back together. He'd even made a secret pact with Brad and said he'd do everything he could to keep his mother at Phoenix Villa. But after hearing what his mother just said, he didn't feel that way anymore. In fact, he started to dislike his father.

He could have given his mother an apple, yet he had never done so. Sean could only imagine how sad that must've made his mother feel. When Keira gave him candy, he was so happy that he couldn't bear to eat it and insisted on keeping it in his pocket to take home.

He gave Keira an apple and got candy in return. His mother had given his father candy yet received nothing in return. This was entirely his father's fault.

At that moment, the little guy not only disliked his father but also felt a deep sympathy for his mother. Even though he didn't understand the complexities of their relationship, he understood one thing: if Keira gave him candy and he didn't give her an apple, it would make her sad.

Being the considerate child he was, Sean sat up from Nadine's lap and wrapped his arms around her neck, planting a sweet kiss on her cheek. "Since Daddy won't give you anything, let's not give him anything either! Daddy's so mean, and I don't like it here anymore! Let's go back to Avery's house!"

After realizing how much his father had hurt his mother, the little guy no longer wanted to be on Brad's side. He climbed out of bed on his own to put on his clothes. Once he was dressed, he headed to the bathroom to wash up without needing Nadine's guidance.

The sound of running water echoed from the bathroom, and Nadine couldn't help but smile as she watched her son brush his teeth while wiggling his little bottom. She wasn't one to sleep in, and this was Phoenix Villa, not Rose Garden.
