Drake said it nicely.
Sophia was annoyed, "Even so, these vets are not those guys; couldn't you see that?"
"No, you couldn't see that. I'm a man, and I know men. I know what men are thinking. Sophia, you know, my heart hurts just at the thought of losing you."
Drake said miserably.
Sophia couldn't argue with him when he was like that, "Okay, fine. You are always right, okay? But I don't wanna see you right now!"
Then she shoved a hedgehog in his hand and was about to leave.
"Hey, you!"
That hedgehog pricked Drake pretty hard.
Bonnie laughed out loud.
Drake said a bit angrily, "Bonnie, your mommy's mad at me now. What's so funny about that?!"
Bonnie didn't care about it and said, "Why not? You are the one Mommy's mad about, not me!"
"Don't forget who brought them here in the first place." Speaking of this, Drake had a lot to talk about with Bonnie, "And you! What do you mean?! Papa's less hot than those guys, or what? Are you bored of looking at your Papa every day and trying to find other guys?"
Bonnie said frustratedly, "Papa, you think I'm that shallow like you? I didn't choose them for their good looks, okay? Now I see, Papa, are you feeling insecure and worried that Mommy's gonna leave you for a younger one?"
"Bonnie, you!"
Drake was about to retort, but Bonnie ran away.
She had come to Emma when he got out of the pet room.
"Grandma, Papa's gonna hit me, and I don't know why." Bonnie stayed pretty close to Emma, looking sad.
Emma reproached, "Drake, why did you hit Bonnie? You can do whatever you want to vent your anger, but never at kids!"
Drake couldn't believe what they had just said. He replied, "Mom, I didn't hit her! And you haven't heard what she just said! I should repeat that for you!"
"Fine, let's hear it. I'll see what exact words would make you that angry!" Emma tried to protect Bonnie.
Drake said word by word, "She said the reason that I chased those vets out was that I was feeling insecure and was afraid Sophia would leave me for younger ones."
Emma nodded, "Well, isn't that true?"
"I..."
Drake wanted to explain but suddenly didn't know what to say.
Bonnie had a gloating pleasure.
"But I think there's nothing wrong with those hot vets. They are pretty qualified. And it was me and Bonnie who brought them here. So, are you saying that we chose the wrong guys?"
Drake was rendered speechless.
He suddenly thought that maybe he shouldn't talk because everything he said was wrong. And he didn't get a say in this family.
Aria ran in at this time, "I've heard about those hot young guys. Where are they? Let me see!"
Drake said with anger, "They are not here. I drove them out."
Aria asked with confusion, "Drake, why did you do that?"
