Derek directly took Meredith home. "Easton was sad that you didn't spend some time with him. He really misses you."
Meredith did not refuse.
The first thing she wanted to do in such a sad situation was to hug her adorable son to absorb the courage and strength to persevere.
Easton was already out of school, and on the way home, he had seen the news on his phone.
"This Tina is really shameless."
In children's opinion, their parents were naturally the best. And Easton thought what happened to the Horton Family had nothing to do with others.
How dared they frame his mother?
Easton was thinking about how to make these sinister people pay a price when the door opened.
Meredith walked in and saw that Easton was back. She smiled, but she looked tired.
"Mom, you're back!"
Easton had always been a smart kid. He could tell his mother was not in a good mood now. After thinking of something, he walked over and held Meredith's hand. "I had done a lot of things in kindergarten today."
Then he led Meredith to the place where he kept his toys and asked her to play with him.
Meredith didn't want her negative emotions to infect the child, so she managed to relax and built the blocks with Easton.
Easton told Meredith some funny and embarrassing things that happened to him and finally made her laugh.
"Mom, help me. I'm going to the bathroom."
Seeing that Meredith was in a better mood, Easton found an excuse to come to the study to find Derek.
Derek was trying to find out the whole story, and he saw the small head peeking out behind the door.
"What are you doing?"
Derek asked, "Aren't you playing with your mother?"
"What on earth is going on? Hasn't Tina gone too far? Do you want me to teach her a lesson?"
Easton was eager to do so. Mr. Xavier bought him a high-end drone from abroad a few days ago. He hadn't found a chance to play it yet.
The last time he used a remote control plane to scare the bad guys who bullied his mother. He could do that again.
Even though others found out it was him who did that, no one would blame him since he was still a kid.
"Save your little tricks. If your great-grandfather knows, guess what will happen?"
Easton had thought of many tricks, but when he heard this, he was frustrated.
"Then what should we do? We can't just watch mom get bullied and not do anything, can we?"
Easton looked unhappy.
After all, he was a child, and he didn't think too much. He only knew that he had to get back after being wronged, but he did not know that the adult world was that simple.
Derek frowned and was about to say something but his phone rang.
