True Love Waits

Chapter 1426 Aren't You Afraid That Dad Will Get Mad At You

Adkins left his parents' bedroom as fast as he could, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded younger brothers. They turned around to look at their father, who was wearing a long face, and then at their mother, who was also stunned by Adkins' disappearing figure. Eventually, they turned around and retreated to their respective rooms.

After the kids went back to their rooms, Matthew took out his phone and called Owen. "Transfer three million to Ms. Zheng's account from Season Group," he ordered.

'Wow! Adkins borrowed two million and now Matthew is going to pay it back with three million.' Erica shook her head and sighed, "It's so good to have money!"

As Matthew put his phone back into his pocket, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at her. "This is your son. He is the same as you when it comes to being unreasonable."

This time, it was Erica's turn to be angry. "When have I ever been unreasonable? Huh? You're just mad because you failed to teach Adkins a lesson.

And now you're dumping all of that misplaced anger onto his mother! Who do you think is being unreasonable here?" Matthew, sighed in defeat, and decided to retreat into the bathroom in silence as he didn't want to argue with her.

When Erica went downstairs, the four children were having breakfast quietly as before, and Matthew was sitting opposite them.

Noticing her presence, Matthew wiped his mouth with a tissue and asked, "How come you're up so early? Do you have something to do today?"

"Yes!" She wanted to send her children to school and her husband to the company.

As usual, the four children pulled out the chair for her and served her breakfast. Adkins seemed a little absent-minded, perhaps because he was worried that his father was still mad at him.

More often than not, Adkins would be the most energetic amongst his brothers when Erica was around. Today, however, he was just quietly sulking in his seat and having breakfast.

Erica looked at her eldest son and then at the man beside her, but said nothing.

After breakfast, the family of six got into the minivan. Adkins immediately jumped into the seat next to Erica, held her hand tightly and whispered, "Mom, may I borrow your phone please? I need to call Grandma."

Confused, Erica asked, "Why do you want to call your grandma?"

Adkins gestured to Matthew with his eyes and then shook his head. "Nothing."

Having sensed his reluctance to speak, Erica didn't force him to explain himself. Instead, she took her phone out and handed it to him. "Here you go."
