The Ex-Wife's Triumph novel Chapter 238

Noticing that Kingsley was still clutching one last envelope, Ethan immediately teased him.

"Come on, Kingsley, you have to treat everyone equally. My brother and I have already handed ours out. Who are you saving that one for?"

Kingsley didn't reply. He simply walked over to Seven, who was crouched by the table playing with his toy car, and softened his voice even more. "A gift for you."

Seven looked up at the envelope, then at him, and said in an adorable voice, "Thank you."

Those two words sent a rush of warmth straight to Kingsley's chest—his son had spoken to him.

A wave of tenderness instantly flooded his eyes as he replied softly, "You're welcome."

At that moment, Molly spoke up to introduce him to Seven. "This is Mr. Kingsley."

"Mr. Kingsley," Seven repeated, his voice soft and sweet.

Hearing that title, Kingsley felt his heart melt completely. Even though it wasn't 'Dad,' he was more than satisfied.

His gaze fell on the toy car in the boy's hand. "Do you like cars?"

Seven nodded obediently.

Kingsley crouched down, keeping his tone gentle. "How about I bring you a new car next time?"

"I already have a lot." Seven shook his head slightly, his tone full of childish honesty.

Sean looked over at Lucy, who was sitting on the sofa, and greeted her with a smile. "Lucy, it's been a while."

"Mr. Sterling." Lucy looked up, her tone flat and lacking any real warmth.

Jane was seething. She shot Thurston a fierce glare before sweeping her gaze over Kingsley, who was crouching beside Seven. To think they had given him a chance to get close to the boy!

She snapped, "Thurston, your friends are here, aren't you going to entertain them?"
