Please Give Me Another Chance, Mrs. Hamilton novel Chapter 529

Worried that Nadine might get upset, Sean planted another kiss on her cheek and snuggled closer into her arms before responding, "To be honest, I haven't been sleeping very well. Avery's place is her home, not ours. I still feel like this is our real home."

He wasn't lying at all. He had genuinely struggled to adjust while staying at Avery's place. The room there was smaller than his own, and it didn't have the toys he could easily reach for whenever he wanted.

Even though Sean had brought some toys with him, there were still many more he wanted to play with that wouldn't fit in his bag, so he couldn't bring them all at once. On top of that, he missed his father and couldn't play with his usual friends.

But he was aware that his father and mother had fought, possibly to the point where they would never reconcile. If he told his mother that he didn't like staying at Avery's place and preferred his father's place, it would only make her sad.

Hence, while staying at Avery's, he pretended to be happy, even though he truly wasn't. Now, as he snuggled in his mother's arms, he finally told the truth.

Children often spoke their minds. Their innocence allowed them to share their thoughts freely.

Nadine was caught off guard. She hadn't realized he was unhappy at Avery's. She had always assumed Sean was happy. Now, she learned that he had been pretending to be happy to please her.

Initially, she wanted to chastise her son, but she couldn't bring herself to when she looked into his clear, innocent eyes. She put herself in her son's shoes and realized he wasn't at fault. He had simply spoken the truth.

Suppressing her dissatisfaction, she sat up and pulled her son into a warm embrace before asking softly, "If you could choose, would you rather be at Avery's or with your Daddy?"
