"Finish your breakfast quickly and go to kindergarten. And, from now on, you should protect Jane like a man, understood?"
No matter who her parents were, a man should always protect a woman at any time.
Jerry agreed and said, "Dad, don't worry. I won't be as bad as you, chasing mom out of here for four years!" Jerry would keep this in mind all his life and planed to punish his dad when he grew up.
"Nonsense!" Samuel wanted to scold Jerry, but he held back his anger due to his good upbringing.
And the fact was that Ella had abandoned him for four years! He was tolerant and chose to let her go.
These thoughts remained unsaid.
"How can you call yourself a senior lawyer after all the bad things you have done?" Jerry had learned what happened between Ella and Samuel. At first he didn't know who was right or wrong, but he figured it out just by judging from their attitudes.
It had to be his father's fault.
Samuel became livid because of his son's insults.
After he drunk his milk, he wiped his mouth and walked towards Jerry in anger.
Sensing his anger, Jerry rushed towards the door, carrying his bag.
Even though he ran fast, Samuel caught up to him in the living room.
Samuel wanted to teach Jerry a lesson, but a soft but deterrent sound interrupted, "Samuel, what are you doing?"
Ella saw what was happening while walking down the stairs. She ran and pulled their son away from Samuel.
"Samuel, Jerry is your son, why do you always want to hit him?"
Samuel was fumed by this point.
"That little jerk is disrespectful to me, and of course I will teach him a lesson!" Now if he dared to talk to him in this way, what would happen when he grew up?
Ella didn't want to listen to Samuel. She pushed away Samuel's hand and said, "He is just a kid, why are you so fussy?" She couldn't understand why Samuel always wanted to discipline Jerry.
"Kid? If your son is a kid, he must be early-maturing." Inadvertently thinking of Jane, Samuel felt that a son was really not as clever and considerable as a daughter.
Over ten years later, Samuel would find out that he was so wrong at that moment.
"Samuel, I will be mad if you say 'your son' one more time!" It sounded like Jerry was really not his son.
"Okay, okay, my fault!" Samuel hastened to apologize. Seeing Samuel coaxing Ella, Jerry seized the chance to run towards the door, and then went to school with Jane.
Looking at his son running away, Samuel snickered. 'He knows when to take the chance to escape, that's smart move.' Samuel thought, a tinge of proud washing over him.
It seemed that the whole world knew about what had happened to Catherine. Now she hid in her apartment and dared not go out, fearing that others would taunt her.
Thus she had no chance to retaliate against Ella and only cursed Ella, who appeared elegant and undisturbed on TV.
Ella needed to leave C Country for a few days for work, thus she asked a servant and Jerry to take care of Jane.
Samuel was sitting in the office, watching the TV channel that was presenting Ella's fashion show, when a thought flashed through his mind.
Just the night before Ella was supposed to return, Samuel said a few words to Molly and then drove her to the shopping mall.
At the time, there were only two or three days before the lunar year.
Ella came back to C Country earlier than expected and went to Samuel's company to surprise him.
