The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1697

Adam pointed toward a room in disgust. "Hurry up and get that little brat out of there! He's been mum all morning, and he didn't respond when I asked him if he wanted to eat. He just stared at me and kept crying for his 'Daddy'. I couldn't stand it anymore and locked him in that room!"

Sophia could not help but get angry at him. "How could you lock up a child like that?"

Adam retorted, "What else can I do with him? He doesn't respond when I ask if he wants to eat or drink. He just cries and cries! He should be glad I didn't give him a good beating! He's not even my biological grandson!"

Worried that Zachary might overhear her father's comments, Sophia approached him and signaled for him to avoid saying such things. She implored him, "Do you want Zachary to get mad at me? I'll give you a grandson soon, okay? Please just don't make things any more difficult for me!"

The last thing that Adam wanted was to create unnecessary trouble, especially since he was so preoccupied with his issues. He waved her off and said, "Fine, fine! I'll keep my mouth shut. Just bring the child away!"

Sophia felt somewhat relieved and went over to unlock the room door with a key. Benjamin had cried so much inside that his eyes were swollen. He sat dejectedly on the ground in exhaustion and wiped his tears furiously.

When Benjamin heard the doorknob turning, he looked up and saw that the door was swinging open. In a flash, he got up and dashed out like a rocket.

Sophia reached out to stop him, but Benjamin bolted past her and avoided her immediately.

Thankfully, Zachary was at the door to stop Benjamin from running away.

Sophia turned around helplessly and said goodbye to Adam. "Have some rest, Dad. Zachary and I will bring Benjamin to our room. Give me a call if you need anything."

Adam still had a sullen expression as he grumbled, "Go!"
