Chapter 68 What Happened Back Then
As soon as Elijah heard the pleasant voice, he stopped and looked at Sebastian. Seeing that he had a mask on his face, Elijah looked at him curiously and said, "Hey, do you know where there is hot water?"
He would get diarrhea if he drank cold milk.
Last time, he ran to the toilet once in a few minutes and suffered a lot.
His skin was scraped off. His feet ached when he walked.
He suffered because he didn't listen to his mommy.
Sebastian looked deeply at Elijah in front of him and said, "I know where there is hot water. I will take you there."
"Thanks!" Elijah gave Sebastian a friendly smile.
Sebastian couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth a little, looked at Christian, and said, "Go to the lounge."
"Okay!" Christian wheeled Sebastian back.
Sebastian looked at Elijah and said, "Come with me." His voice was subdued with excitement.
Elijah skipped and followed Sebastian to the lounge.
Sebastian couldn't help but smile as he looked at how lively and vivacious Elijah was.
In the lounge, under the bright lights, Elijah's face was almost identical to Waylon's. If he didn't speak, he'd look like another Waylon.
Sebastian went to boil water, looked at Elijah, and asked, "Why are you... still drinking powdered milk?"
He remembered Waylon refusing to take formula after he would eat solid foods.
Elijah looked at the masked man in front of him. Everyone seemed to ask Elijah that question. "I was so small when I was born, and I almost died. Mommy took me abroad to find a doctor to treat me, so I came back to life. I was weak and sickly, and Mommy got hurt and couldn't breastfeed. Therefore, she customized this special formula for me, which is nutritious and will make me grow taller. I won't have to take it for another year."
"But I forgot to change the thermos when I walked out the door today. The milk is cold and undrinkable, and I'll get diarrhea if I drink it. It's a pity to dump it because these two scoops of powdered milk are worth 15 dollars."
The milk powder was too expensive!
Elijah, distressed and saddened, muttered again, "15 dollars is enough to feed our family for a day."
Sebastian was shocked at Elijah's words. His mommy was injured. Elijah was sick and almost died. His family had only 15 dollars a day to live on. Sebastian's heart ached, feeling like it was being hammered over and over.
Sebastian took a deep breath and put aside all kinds of doubts.
Could it be that the woman didn't abandon Waylon on purpose, but because she was unable to take care of the two children? Thinking about it, Sebastian was in a better mood.
He lowered his voice and asked, "Where's your mom? How could she let you come here alone?"
Speaking of this, Sebastian was incredibly angry. How could that woman bring such a young child here and let him walk around alone?
It was dangerous here!
Someone was going to create a disturbance at any moment!
"My mommy had something to do. She wasn't home. I came here with my two godmothers. They like hunks and watch the fight inside."
Sebastian and Christian were speechless.
When Elijah saw the water boiled in the thermostat kettle, he rushed to bring out the spare formula, looked at Sebastian, and asked, "Where's the kitchen?"
Christian came over and said, "Give it to me. I will do this."
