Matteo’s eyes watered as he thought about his mother. He knew he was the reason why she was so badly wounded.
The boy blinked his eyes hard to force back his tears.
Before long, he finally came to terms with his emotions and turned towards Sebastian. “Do you blame Mommy?”
Sebastian looked at him, puzzled.
“Mommy lied to you. Do you blame her for that?” He looked at Sebastian in the eyes.
From his unwavering gaze, Sebastian could tell there was worry and fear.
Do I blame her?
The question resounded in Sebastian’s mind as he thought about everything that had happened. He would be lying if he said he did not blame her at all. She hid Matteo from him for five years and even told him that Ian was the only one who survived.
But what about now? Do I still blame her?
Thoughts battled in Sebastian’s mind. First, she faked her death. Now he even found out that she kept his son from him – one who was still alive. If Sasha were not in the operation room right now, Sebastian could have well thrown her into the deep seas.
But do I still blame her?
The bloody scene of how Sasha protected Matteo flashed before his mind. Sebastian pursed his lips and shook his head determinedly.
“No, I don’t blame her. She’s the one who raised you.”
“Really?”
A smile broke out on Matteo’s face when Sebastian finally elicited an answer.
“Yes, it’s true. I don’t blame her,” Sebastian assured him.
“Then will you take care of Mommy?”
“Sure!” Sebastian replied without the slightest hesitation.
What Sebastian said was heart-felt. Sasha was severely injured after the incident. Thus, Sebastian would definitely provide the care she needed since she was his kids’ mother.
After that, Matteo finally forgave his father, and the two made up.
Sebastian decided to bring all the three kids back to Frontier Bay throughout Sasha’s stay at the hospital, although he was still not comfortable around Vivian.
“Let’s go. You can’t stay here since your mother’s still in the ward,” Sebastian called out coldly to Vivian. Things were still a little awkward between the two.
