Come Back to Me novel Chapter 371

Tears welled up in Ben's eyes. He glanced at Alston's serious face and scolded coldly, "Go to sleep!"

Still sitting on the sofa stubbornly, Alston looked at Ben without moving. "I can't fall asleep!"

Ben frowned and looked at him with dangerous eyes. "How can you fall asleep if I don't go to sleep?"

"Tell me first. What are you thinking about?" Alston asked with unwillingness. His black eyes were full of stubbornness, and Ben looked at Alston helplessly. He still looked at him seriously and said, "Are you being disobedient?"

"I'm just concerned about you. I'll tell me what I'm thinking. Tell me what you're thinking. Is that okay?" The boy asked tentatively. Although he sat still on the sofa stubbornly, he was a little timid because of the unprecedented sternness of Ben, and his tone of speaking seemed to be somewhat lack of confidence.

Ben said, "I'm not thinking about anything. You go to bed first!"

Alston still looked at him stubbornly. With a frown, Ben said coldly, "You are as stubborn as your mother." Alston shook his head and said, "I'm just caring about you!"

Ben couldn't help laughing. He looked at Alston and said, "I see!"

With a preoccupied look on his face, Ben noticed that something was wrong with him. He suddenly looked serious, looked at him and said with disappointment, "Alston, tell me what you are thinking about."

Seeing that Ben was eager to talk, Alston hurriedly negotiated with him, "Then Dad, you should also tell me of your thoughts!"

Hearing that, the corners of his mouth froze. Finally, he said seriously, "I'm thinking of you!"

Alston smiled and suddenly threw himself into his arms. "Don't worry. I won't leave. My sister is a fool."

Ben was stunned for a while. Looking at the sensible boy, Ben picked up him and let him sit on his laps. "Really?"

Alston frowned and pretended to think. After a while, he raised his head and looked at him with his bright eyes. "Of course, I've only met him for a few times. It's not fair to call him father."

A bitter smile appeared on the corners of Ben's mouth. "You have to call him father sooner or later. You will have your own home."

Alston frowned and shook his head. "I won't go back."

Ben interrupted him, "But you will." He sighed. After all, the child was a child, and after all, Alston and Melissa were also the children of Brody.

The look on Alston's face became serious. He stared at the face of Ben and said firmly, "No, let's make a bet." With a smile, Ben said, "Even if it's a bet, you will lose."

"I won't go back!"

Seeing that Alston was a little angry, Ben put on a helpless smile on his pale face and said, "Alston, listen to me. Go to bed first!"

Alston got out of his arms reluctantly and jumped off the ground. At last, he took a look at Ben and was about to leave, but it seemed that he suddenly remembered something. He looked at him and blurted out, "What about the beautiful elder sister?"

Hearing that, Ben's face completely froze. Seeing that he didn't say anything, Alston didn't intend to ask any more. He just looked at him in confusion and muttered, "Your adults' things are so complicated."

Ben smiled at Alston and said, "Go to bed!"

Alston nodded and said, "Good night, Dad!"
