Malcolm was speechless.
He turned back and looked at Spencer, who was sitting by the head of the bed as if watching a play.
Spencer continued lightly, "That man was your former rival, right? That's why you were so angry when you heard Momo call him Daddy."
Malcolm sighed, stretched out his big palm, and gently touched his son's small head, "You are still young. This is a matter between adults. You can recuperate in peace."
Spencer's small eyebrows were slightly raised. His expression resembled Malcolm's very. He was like a miniature version of Malcolm.
He gave up on himself, "Anyway, no matter how much infusion, medicine, and recuperation I have experienced. I won't get better. I don't want to receive treatment anymore."
Malcolm felt painful in his heart, and stroked his pale little face pitifully, "No, you're just not in good health right now. There is an antidote that can cure you in the laboratory. In the future when you can take care of your body and be able to withstand the power of the medicine, Jimmy can get you healthy."
Spencer didn't answer, but changed the subject, and continued the topic about Anthony.
"Daddy, I know you are very powerful. You can have a huge impact on the entire Crana. Why didn't you kill that man? He hang around with Momo every day, and even be her godfather."
Malcolm was stunned, looking at his son's exquisite eyes that were just like his.
"Spencer, you're only five years old. Do you know what kill means? How can you think like this..."
Spencer blinked and had a weak smile. And he looked as sickly as ever, "Doesn't killing him mean to let him disappear from this world forever? I don't want to see him, so I want him to disappear."
Malcolm was dumbfounded. How deep was his mind at five years old?
Did he think too much, or was Spencer more mature than he thought?
He restrained his thoughts and said to Spencer seriously, "A person's life cannot be taken away casually. No matter how powerful I am, I will not be above the law. Spencer, Anthony is not only Momo's godfather, but also you godfather."
"Anthony did some wrong things, and he didn't expect to cause unexpected accidents, but he tried his best to help me and your mommy."
"I can see that he really loves Momo. And he really wants to be close to you. He loves you as well. Can you try to accept him step by step?"
Spencer hesitated a little, and pursed his pale lips, "I know you and Mommy have made up with him, but I don't like him, even hate him. He made me stay in the laboratory for infusions. He made me hurt. He made me can't go to kindergarten and play on the trampoline like other kids."
"Even if you and Mommy aren't mad at him, I will punish him in the future." And it was on his own way.
Malcolm heard that and was astonished, then burst into laughter. "You want to punish him? What are you going to do?"
Spencer smiled mysteriously, "It's a secret. I can't tell you."
Malcolm sighed and flicked the tip of his little nose, "Spencer, you're only five years old. Are you going to hide your little secret from me?"
Spencer just smiled. His eyebrows were like Momo's, which were cute.
Malcolm stared at his face that looked like his own, and sighed that he was always a kid and just joked.
"Spencer, I know you're smart. I can hide nothing from you, and nothing can't stop you, but I hope you won't be so sensitive. I want you to be like Momo to spend you happy and innocent childhood. And be carefree."
Spencer laughed, "Don't worry Daddy. I will."
Malcolm stroked his little head gently.
He felt very distressed for him, who had been weak and delicate from a young age because of illness. Then he noticed a few books on the bedside table.
Malcolm got up and walked over, picking up the books.
It was an Olympiad Maths Competition booklet and an English dialogue book.
