Derek was not annoyed by what Easton said, and he nodded leisurely, "Well. If your mother marries another man, they will have their own child. Then your mother won't have time to take care of you."
To the little guy, these sentences had a deterrent effect. Thinking about that situation, he was immediately frightened. His little face turned pale with fear.
Seeing Easton's change, Derek knew that he had achieved his purpose and said slowly, "So, son, now we should unite and clear away all the other man around your mother so that your mother and I can be together as soon as possible."
After they reached an agreement, Nora came in. Easton gave his father a meaningful glance which stood for "I will handle this".
He ran over, hugged Nora's lower leg, and looked up expectantly, "Mom, can you give birth to a little brother or a little sister to play with me?"
Nora and Derek were all shocked by Easton's words.
Derek looked at his son in astonishment. He was completely unaware that Easton would say this kind of thing. Although this was actually his heartfelt wish, it was really inappropriate now.
Nora was also shocked, but then she felt embarrassed. She was too embarrassed to look at Derek and didn't know how to answer the little guy.
"Ah, what Easton said was that he would be lonely at home alone. He wants you to spend more time with him and take him out to play when you are free." Derek tried to ease the embarrassment.
Curling his lips, the little guy nodded, "Yes. Mom, today is a rest day. I don't need to go to kindergarten. Can you take me out to play?"
Nora was eagerly looking forward to ending the topic that had just been popped up, so she immediately nodded in agreement.
Derek also wanted to go with them, but he had two important meetings today, so he could only envy his son.
Nora took Easton to the zoo and the aquarium. In the afternoon, they watched an animated movie, and then prepared to eat on the top floor of the mall.
Unfortunately, she saw an acquaintance who she didn't want to meet at the mall.
Holding her son, she said, "Auntie, you're going shopping there, too."
Yes, the acquaintance they met was Sheldon's mother, Hailey.
Wearing a pair of glasses, Hailey was dressed like a queen. She looked at Nora with disdain and frowned, "It's bad luck that I meet you here."
She continued, "I let you tell my son to cancel the wedding. Do you tell him that?"
Pressing her lips, Nora felt embarrassed to be asked such a question in front of her son.
"Auntie, Sheldon is coming back soon. We'll come to that when he comes back, okay? I have other things to do today, so I'll leave for now."
She was afraid that if they continued to stay here, Hailey would act like the last time she was in her office. She could ignore her as usual, but Easton was here today.
But Hailey was such a bad person that she wouldn't let Nora leave so easily.
"Stop, did I let you go? You're in such a hurry to leave. Afraid to be seen?"
After she said that, she looked at Easton, who had been staring at her with a grim face, and said, "Nora, who are you? You are so uneducated that you stare at me."
Nora's face turned sullen and she looked straight at Hailey, "Auntie, if you have any complaints, just come to me. He's just a child. There's no need for you to say awful things to him."
Hailey didn't expect that Nora would talk to her like that, so she was so angry and said, "Who do you think you are? You said that I said awful things. Do you deserve me to say something nice?"
"I've never seen such a shameless person like you who clings to my son. You're a bitch."
Hearing that, Easton was angry with a cold face, "Silly woman, shut up."
As he spoke, he dashed over and kicked Hailey's lower leg. Although he was young, he had been trained in the military camp. He was more than enough to deal with such an old woman.
