Wed to the Billionaire Brother of My Spouse by Doris

Chapter 168

Chapter 168 Ethan Became Afraid

When Jasmine got home, she found Justin and Casey playing with mud in the living room. The scene before her was a bit surprising-Justin was actually getting along with Casey.

"Mommy!" Justin saw Jasmine and joyfully called out to her.

Casey, feeling a little guilty, bowed his head and edged toward the couch. In the past, he disliked Justin and his mom, thinking they were thieves, and had said many unpleasant things. Despite being a kid, even he knew shame.

"What's with Casey?" Jasmine asked her son.

Justin whispered in her ear, "Mommy, Casey's dad doesn't want him anymore, so dad brought him home to play with me."

Jasmine was taken aback.

Rubbing Justin's head, Jasmine walked over and squatted next to Casey. "Well, you guys have a good time. I'll make something delicious. What would you like to eat, Casey?"

Casey stared blankly at Jasmine. He was slightly envious at the fact that someone else's mom could be so gentle.

"Aunty, can I have ribs and pumpkin with egg yolk?" Casey asked, still sitting on the floor.

"You have quite the taste. Whatever you want to eat, I'll make," Ethan said, having changed into his house clothes. He came over, picked up Casey by his overalls, and moved him aside as he was in the way.

Casey pouted. "Uncle, Justin is also in the way, why don't you pick him up?"

Ethan glanced at Justin and then back at Casey. Even though they were both kids, he had a soft spot for Justin.

Adults were indeed hypocrites.

"Because he is..." Ethan's words trailed off, unsure on how to answer Casey.

"Because Casey, you're wearing overalls, making it easy to lift you up," Jasmine cut Ethan off, concerned his words might hurt the child.

After all, Casey's dad was not exactly a model parent. If Ethan was too protective of Justin, it would surely upset Casey.

"Aunty, can you really make ribs?" Casey was starting to like Jasmine.

"Yes," Jasmine responded, ruffling Casey's hair, then stood up to head to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Ethan raised an eyebrow and followed into the kitchen to help out.
