Wed to the Billionaire Brother of My Spouse by Doris

Chapter 8 Six Years Ago

"Bro..." Daniel was scared too, but at the same time, he was astonished. Ethan, who detested strangers coming close, was acting out of character today.

"Sorry, Ethan. Serena was in a car accident and needs a kidney transplant. Jasmine owes Serena big time, and I was afraid she'd pull some stunt, so I brought her here to stay for a few days," Daniel hurriedly explained.

Ethan didn't make a sound; he was never one to meddle in other people's business. Especially not Daniel's.

"Kid, scoot over," Daniel said, reaching out to grab Justin when Ethan remained silent.

But Justin pressed his head against Ethan's leg, embracing him like how a koala clung to a tree.

Though young, Justin had learned to read the room.

He could tell Daniel was a bad guy for bullying Mom, and that this bad guy was afraid of the man he was clinging to.

Jasmine, amidst her panic, was moved and pained by the thought of what Justin must be going through-he was only five years old...

"Justin, Mom will take you to find Daddy, okay?" Jasmine soothed in a soft voice.

"Just hurry up and find that deadbeat to take this little brat away!" Daniel snapped, unable to pry Justin off.

Ethan looked at the little guy smearing snot and tears all over his pants and didn't get angry. Instead, he almost wanted to laugh.

A five-year-old kid...

"Are you my daddy? Will you be my daddy and protect my mommy?" Justin asked innocently as he looked up.

Daniel's face darkened even further. He couldn't believe a five-year-old could say something like this. Unless Jasmine coached him...
