Chapter 389 Taking The Plane To Anglandur
In the end, Oscar softened after Tony’s relentless tantrums and allowed Kurt to follow them to Anglandur.
Oscar looked at Tony, who was looking at him like a smug little imp. “Are you happy now?”
The boy raised his head haughtily with a loud scoff. “I’ll forgive you this time, Big Meanie. But if you ever try to separate me from my daddy again, I won’t let you off this easily.”
Oscar didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at that. People usually had sons so they could continue their lineage, but with Tony, it seemed like the boy had it out for his own dad. Despite that, he just couldn’t scold the kid because of how much he looked like Amelia.
He felt like Tony and Amelia were his kryptonite.
He then said to Hugo, “Sit on the next flight with Kurt.”
“Yes, boss.”
Tony ran toward Kurt and started swinging his hand. “I wanna sit with Daddy!”
Oscar narrowed his eyes and said, “Is that really what you want?”
“Yes. I don’t want to sit with you, Big Meanie!”
“Fine! I don’t want to stick around a little brat like you anyway. In fact, I think I’ll just sell you off to someone else. Don’t even think about seeing your mommy again.”
Tony ran toward Oscar and started bashing at him with his little fists. “Big Meanie! I’m going to teach you a lesson so you’ll never try to disrupt my mommy and daddy again.”
Oscar caught both of Tony’s hands in a firm grasp and looked at him sternly. “Anthony Clinton, if you don’t stop being so rude, I’m going to send you right back to the Clinton residence and teach you a good lesson once I come back from Anglandur.”
Tony’s eyes reddened immediately and he cried out, “Mommy, Big Meanie’s scolding me! He’s scary.”
Amelia said urgently, “I’m sorry, Oscar. Please don’t get mad at him. He’s still young and you’re scaring him.”
Oscar took a deep breath and softened his tone. “Be good, Tony. You want Mommy to see again too, right?”
Tony nodded.
“Well, this big meanie of a dad wants to bring Mommy to Anglandur so that she can get a cornea transplant. You can follow Kurt, but stop throwing such tantrums or I’ll take Mommy away from you forever,” Oscar threatened.
To Tony, Oscar looked just like the demons from the stories.
“B-Big Meanie!” No matter how smart Tony was, he was still only two years old. Rather than hating on Oscar, he mostly revered the older man. Even though he kept calling him “Big Meanie,” he didn’t really hate him that much. He just felt as if Oscar’s appearance had suddenly torn his mommy and daddy apart. He felt like Oscar was a threat to his mommy and daddy’s relationship deep down in his bones, and since he had been brought up by Kurt, he naturally wanted Kurt to be the one to date his mommy.
Oscar stood up and said, “Kurt, Tony, the two of you can sit on the next flight.”
“Yes, boss,” Kurt replied respectfully before waving to Tony. “Tony, come over here.”
The boy scurried over and burrowed himself into Kurt’s embrace. “Don’t be scared, Daddy! With me here, Mommy will definitely be with you instead of that Big Meanie. Don’t worry.”
“Tony! Stop saying nonsense,” Amelia berated.
Tony pouted, looking like a kicked puppy.
“Mommy, you’ve stopped liking me ever since Big Meanie showed up.”
“That’s not true, Tony!” Amelia was starting to feel exhausted. She hated seeing the father and son duo go at each other like fire and water.
Oscar walked over and put his arm over Amelia’s shoulders. “Just give him some time, okay? I’ll get along with him in no time.”
Amelia nodded.
