Chapter 838

“I really miss Mom…Ahh, Daddy, let go of me!”

Daniel was showering Brittany with kisses when, mid-sentence, Isaac scooped him up. “Enough smooching, let go of your mom!”

Over the past few months, Daniel had grown quite a bit, but he was still no match for the absolute force that was his father.

Pouting, he flailed his legs. “Mommy, save me!”

Daddy could be so petty. He hadn’t seen Mommy in months, and what was so wrong with a little affection?

Brittany never expected Isaac to be jealous of his own son. She shot him a look that clearly said, “Give it a rest.”

Isaac felt a pang of softness at her gaze and set Daniel down, letting them embrace and whisper to each other, murmuring things he couldn’t quite catch.

Back at home, Daniel clung to Brittany, even through dinner, not willing to leave her side. He insisted she stay with him even through his bath time.

Isaac had had enough. “Daniel Salter!”

Daniel sensed the storm brewing and pouted.

He hopped off the couch, “Then Daddy can bathe with me.”

Daddy could be so stingy!
