"Fine. Then, let Hayden have a good meal when the time comes."
Morgan smirked, and his expression grew smug. He could still put up with Hayden having just one meal.
"What are your plans after the birthday party? When can I go to your home and be a part of the Sterling family?" Bianca glanced at Francis and asked calmly.
Morgan widened his eyes and stared at Francis intently.
"That's right. When are you going to bring Mom home? We've been waiting for so long. I'm already an adult. I really want to live with Mom and experience what it's like to have a real family.
"Those women in the house disgust me, especially when I have to call Charlotte 'Mom.' You have no idea how many times I've wanted to throw up. They're too pretentious, fussy, and irritating. I can't bear being near them anymore," Morgan said convincingly, making himself look like the most pitiful person.
His face said it all. Disgust was written all over his face.
"My poor child… You're really pitiful. It's all my fault. If I had the capability, I would have brought you home to live with me. Then you wouldn't have to suffer so much and feel so miserable. If you must blame someone, just blame me."
Bianca sighed and hugged Morgan. Her eyes glistened with tears, as if she was about to cry.
When Francis saw this pitiful scene, he couldn't help but feel helpless.
Feeling torn, he could only let out a sigh.
"Stop being so sarcastic. You know it's not the right time yet."
Francis was hesitant, and he looked visibly upset. He had no idea how much longer Bianca had to wait.
"Hmph! I knew it. I always knew I didn't matter to you!"
Bianca burst into tears, seeming to be on the verge of breaking down. She leaned against Morgan and cried uncontrollably.
"Mom, please don't cry. It's my fault! If I'm capable, I would have brought you back a long time ago. Don't blame Dad. He must have his reasons," Morgan sobbed.
Bianca and Morgan continue to sing the same tune, putting Francis in a disadvantage and making him feel helpless.
"Can you two stop pressuring me?"
