Angeline frowned. Although she loved her daughter, she had watched Finn grow up beside Sir Ares. She had started thinking of him as part of her family after the time that they had spent together. Her heart hurt when she thought about how harshly Finn treated himself.
She reminded Baby Zetty, "Baby Zetty, Finn lost his parents at a young age. He finally got together with you after going through plenty of difficulties. You must give him a warm home. That way, you'll be able to fulfill the regrets that he has in this lifetime."
Baby Zetty nodded and said, "I got it, Mommy.”
Angeline stared at Baby Zetty, who had a shy expression on her face. She shook her head in exasperation. "You only think about healing your patients. Do you have the time to think about Finn? You must cook some dishes and buy some clothes for him. You must surprise him during his birthday as well."
Baby Zetty thought about her interactions with Finn lately. It seemed like Finn was the only one who prepared surprises for her. She had been way too busy. She enjoyed his efforts, but she had neglected him and forgotten to show him concern as well.
"Mommy, thank you for your reminder. I'll compensate Brother Finn well after going back."
Somehow, Jay had a dark expression on his face. He remained stern and silent.
Baby Zetty teased him on purpose. “Daddy, are you not in a good mood? Did Mommy make you unhappy again?"
Angeline huffed coldly and said, "I understand his thoughts. He's thinking that his daughter deserves to be cherished and loved. Why would you have to do anything for Finn?”
Baby Zetty burst out into laughter.
Jay was amused. "As expected, you know me the best, Angeline."
He then started coming up with a bunch of excuses to explain himself. "Actually, I'm not being biased toward Baby Zetty. It's just that Baby Zetty is a girl, and Finn is a guy. Girls are soft and delicate, whereas guys are tough. Isn’t it right for a guy to do more for a girl?"
Angeline brought up the past and teased him, "Why didn't you think that way when I got together with you as Rose Lyle back then? Shouldn't men be more tolerant toward women?"
Now that she was older, Angeline loved immersing herself in her past memories. She could talk non-stop whenever someone brought up the past. "Back then, you made me a fugitive and tried killing me. It seemed like you wanted to cut off my fortune and make me kneel down before you extremely badly."
