Chapter 826 Finally, the surgery was done. No complications occurred during the surgery and it was a successful surgery. Sage was relieved and her whole posture was able to relax.
As for the time when she got hit by her mother, she decided to forgive her and to not dwell on it because she had a big heart. Or so she tried to convince herself of. However, she could not let go of the fact that they had been alive for four years, but she was in the dark about it.
With her arms crossed in front of her chest, she glanced over at those fathers who were sitting on the couch with her squinted eyes. “Be honest with me. Did all of you know they were alive and did not tell any of us about it?”
Seth, Nigel, and Luther looked at them in unison. Their faces showed they were slightly angry or extremely furious. The godfathers felt the fierce look from their kids and felt guilty so they quickly looked in another direction to avoid making eye–contacts with the kids.
Sergio retorted, “I won‘t say I knew about it early. I recently only got the news about one month ago. Before that, we were also in the dark for a few years!”
Mason said, “That‘s right. I thought someone was playing me when I received the intel. I never thought it was real and figured there was a possibility that they turned into zombies.”
Connor snorted, “Zombies? How hilarious. I always knew both of them wouldn‘t have died that easily. Think about how sly and cunning those two are. They‘re like a pair of foxes.”
As the conversation went on, everyone focused their sights on Primrose and Sawyer. Then Primrose concentrated on doodling on the bandage on Sawyer‘s body. She kept drawing with a marker pen and refused to stop.
“Why should we tell you?” As she drew a cartoon character on the bandage, she replied without lifting her head, “There‘s nothing all of you can do to help anyways if ya‘ll knew.” She offended everyone with just one sentence.
Connor refused to admit it outloud, “What do you mean there‘s nothing we can do to help? Are we that useless in your eyes? Aren‘t we the ones who arrived just in time to help out this time?”
“That‘s right.” Rowan could not help it and spoke his thought, “That‘s very hurtful, Primrose.
Mason replied sarcastically, “I know you always think that we are less capable than Sawyer. But we do have our own strengths. If not, you wouldn‘t have looked for us in the first place.”
All these times Sergio had always been scared of Primrose. Even he could not help it and added flame to the fire too, “That‘s right. We were the ones you selected among the hundreds and thousands of men and that proves that we are of high–quality men.” Senior Shelby who was less expressive than the rest nodded his head even when he only understood half of what they were saying, “Yes, Sergio is right!” Then, Luther whispered in his dad‘s ear to remind him, “Dad, high–quality men is actually a derogatory term.” Sergio did not understand how could high–quality men turn out to be a derogatory term.
Luther explained it to him, “It‘s kinda like saying you‘re someone who is very full or yourself or being delusional. No man would actually call himself a high–quality man. Based on what you said just now, it just shows that you are very lame indeed.”
