True Love Waits

Chapter 1235 Ethan Left

Matthew was speechless. Erica was so good at flattering him.

Anxiety and nervousness coursed through Erica as she had not received Matthew's reply for a long time. Was he angry as Rhea had said?

'Perhaps I should forget about it. After all, it's difficult to figure out what's on a man's mind!' Since it was futile to continue guessing, she decided to wait until he returned. In A Country

Since Erica had agreed, Tam had booked the earliest flight tickets to A Country. A day later, Tam and his wife, Yanny Gao, stood nervously before the door to the Li family house.

Once inside, Tam put aside the valuable gifts that he had brought. Suppressing the urge to hug his son, he and his wife first greeted the older Li family members who stood before them in the living room. "Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Li." Then he nodded to Chantel and Yvette. "I am Tam Wu, Ethan's biological father, and this is my wife, Yanny Gao. Thank you for taking care of Ethan for so long."

Wesley's expression soured, and he glared at Tam silently. Meanwhile, Blair lovingly gazed at Ethan, who she held in her arms. Her blood-shot eyes indicated that she had been crying. Chantel looked at Blair with concern while Yvette tried to hold back the tears that threatened to spill down her cheeks.

As no one spoke for a while, the atmosphere became a little awkward. Tam steeled himself and broke the silence. "I know that all of this has been my fault, and I apologize. My actions have caused a lot of trouble, especially for Erica. We'll take Ethan to Australia and settle there. We won't return to Y City again. My wife is kind, and she will treat Ethan well. Please don't worry as we'll take good care of him!" Yanny had mixed feelings as she looked at the wide-eyed little boy, who was holding a toy car. 'No wonder Tam wants to take him home. It isn't just fatherly love and instinct that draws him to Ethan. This boy is so cute that anyone would want to hug him at first sight,' she thought.

"Australia?" Wesley was surprised. He had assumed that Tam would return to Y City with Ethan. That way, Rika could still visit him when she missed him.

Tam nodded, "Yes. We know it's far, but you can see the child at any time. If you'd like, we can bring Ethan to visit you when we return home for festivals."

Blair's heart grew increasingly heavy. This was a heartbreaking moment for her, but she had to say goodbye. She glanced at Ethan as she spoke. "Eth, go to your father."

Ethan looked at Blair, who was holding him in her arms. He didn't understand what she had said because he was too young to know what 'father' meant.

Hearing Blair's instructions, Tam stood up cautiously and walked up to her. With outstretched arms, he said, "Son, let me hug you!"
