Chapter 1402
Duncan looked worried.
He retracted his gaze after a long time and reached out to carry Sonny out of Serenity’s arms, but Sonny did not want to be carried by him.
Sonny turned his head and lay on Serenity’s shoulder.
Duncan looked gloomy. He felt that even Sonny was blaming him for not protecting Liberty well.
“Sonny is frightened and only clings to his Aunt Ser now,” Zachary explained.
Duncan pursed his lips and responded, “It’s okay, I don’t blame him. Zachary, I’ll watch over Liberty here. You should take Serenity and Sonny back to rest for a while.”
Zachary said after some thought, “Okay.”
He persuaded Serenity and Sonny to go rest in the RV with him. He would come back to keep watch over his sister–in–law for the second half of the night.
Zachary was at ease now that Duncan was here.
Besides, his bodyguards were present as well.
“Serenity, you can hold on, but Sonny is a child and won’t be able to do the same, so you should think for him. He’s the child your sister was desperately trying to protect. You have to take good care of him so that she feels assured and wakes up.”
Duncan persuaded Serenity to get some rest.
Serenity looked at her nephew again.
Sonny was clinging to her very much at the moment.
At last, Serenity compromised for the sake of Sonny. She went to rest in the RV first and set an alarm so that she could come and watch over her sister for the second half of the night.
Meanwhile, at the Browns‘ house.
“How could it be Jessica? How could it be?”
Hank, who was dragged home by his parents, had been mumbling and saying the same thing for hours.
