The Last Time I Cried Your Name novel Chapter 605

Early the next morning, Franco stepped out of the master bedroom. He had opened his eyes the moment he heard movement from the nursery next door.

He went downstairs to the dining room. Abacus was sitting in his high chair, waiting for his steamed eggs.

The toddler held his favorite little spoon in one hand and clenched the other into a tight fist.

The little guy stared down at his fist, his brow furrowed as if he were angry, letting out soft grunts.

"What are you doing?" Franco walked over to him.

Abacus immediately stopped grunting. He looked up at him, then back down at his fist. He opened his fingers, clenched them again, repeated the motion twice, and finally looked up to answer.

"Mama. Practice."

Franco had no idea that yesterday, Petty had clenched her fists and fed Abacus a completely straight-faced, nonsensical explanation about doing resistance training to build strength.

He only caught the word "Mama."

"Where is she?"

He directed the question at Jackson.

Jackson walked over carrying a bowl of steamed eggs that had cooled to the perfect temperature. "She went out."

"Without eating breakfast?"

"She said she'd grab something at the TV station."

She was certainly eager for her first day back at work.

Franco gave a faint hum of acknowledgment. His stoic face revealed no emotion as he took the bowl from Jackson, preparing to feed Abacus.

Just then, Jay walked in from outside. It was a workday, and he was dressed in a crisp black suit, his rugged face expressionless.

But as he approached Abacus, his pace slowed, and his features softened.

"Boss, Hans officially starts his position at The Green Group today. The Green Family is holding a press conference, and all the mainstream media outlets have been invited."

Mainstream media.
