Chapter 17 Dad Is to the Point That Even Dogs Hate It
They kissed Mom again. Their Mom was so nice. She was much better than Dad, and they would kiss and hug her again whenever she got home. Otto nodded obediently, and said, “We are so obedient today. Mom, you’re really beautiful, this dress is suitable for you.” He kept praising her, “She is simply the most beautiful mom in the world.”
Nina also nodded her head, especially agreeing that their mom was the most beautiful person she has ever seen… The little girl took out the small book, started to write, and stretched it out in front of Aletta to read.
[Mom, are you tired?]
Aletta was so overjoyed by the praise that she forgot about the banquet and said with a smile, “I’m not tired.” Then, she picked up the two babies, walked to the living room, and asked softly, “Then what were you two doing at home? Tell me.”
Aletta took them and sat down on the sofa, while Daisy went to prepare dinner. Then, Otto and Nina looked at each other. Aletta didn’t know that not long after she left, they would look at the clock from time to time, and when they heard any movement, they would take a look downstairs. Especially at night, when they felt that she should’ve finished her work, they put their little heads on the window sill, looking out eagerly, waiting for her to come home. Since their mom was willing to spend time with them, instead of working in another place like their Dad, they were overjoyed, so they approached happily and talked about everything in detail.

On the other side, Jason also returned to Hill Mansion. He was still in a bad mood. When they entered the door, the kids were building Lego in the lobby. Tens of thousands of Lego bricks. were thrown all
over the ground. Most adults would feel anxious when they saw so many legos, but the two little ones had a great time playing. They were very smart and built very quickly. After a while, some parts were already built.
Lucas sensed movement at the door, so he couldn’t help taking a look. Seeing Jason enter the door, he called him, “Dad.”
Lyla didn’t need to speak, she simply didn’t even look at anyone and concentrated on building the small castle. Jason nodded his head, glanced at the pile of Legos, and didn’t say anything, just sat down on the sofa with his hands on the armrest.
Eaton stood beside him and ordered the housekeeper, “Theo, please bring the medicine box here.”
The old housekeeper nodded and came over with the medicine box. Seeing Jason’s bleeding hand, he couldn’t help but exclaim.
“What’s wrong, Sir? How did you get hurt?”
Despite their activities, the kids heard it and couldn’t help but look at each other. Did they have to go? Lucas and Lyla looked back and forth. Two seconds later, they still chose to take a look. After a while, they also noticed the blood on that hand.
“Wait… what’s the matter?”
Lucas looked around and found that it was not serious. They knew that their mom’s patients had more serious injuries.
Jason leaned on the sofa with a lazy expression, and said lightly, “I was bitten by a dog.”
Lucas was speechless and exchanged glances with his sister. Did he treat them as men tally reta rded? He rolled his eyes, pointed to the back of his hand, and said, “These are human teeth marks, not
dogs’! However, you have a stern face all day long, to the point where dogs even despise you!” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Jason glanced at his son, angry and feeling funny. Ge raised his uninjured hand, and pinched his face, “What did you just say?”
Eaton couldn’t help laughing. He was the only one who could talk to Jason like that. With a cotton swab in his hand, he was about to apply medicine to his boss. He was an adult, so it didn’t matter whether he treat him in a gentle way or not.
Jason felt that the wound was stimulated by the medicine, and frowned. As a young doctor, Lyla pushed Eaton when she saw his ignorant trick. Eaton stopped his movements, he didn’t understand why, and asked, “Miss Lyla, what’s the matter?”
Lyla’s heart was broken. That uncle is so stu pid, how could he treat people like that? She couldn’t stand it anymore. On the surface, the little girl was very calm. Without saying a word, she took the disinfectant and cotton swabs and carefully applied the medicine to Jason’s wound. When several people saw that, their expressions became astonished, and they couldn’t believe it. Lyla… Since when she knew how to do that?
“Why did you do that, Lyla?” Jason’s eyes softened unconsciously, and he asked softly.
Lyla was taken aback for a moment before realizing that she had revealed her real personality. She couldn’t help becoming nervous, a little at a loss. Lucas reacted quickly, and said casually, “Is this difficult? Just look at it and learn.”
“If you want, I can also do it for you.” After hearing that, Jason’s doubts dissipated. His annoyed feeling also disappeared.
He patted his daughter’s head lightly, and boasted, “We are so good at it, you know. Sorry, I underestimated you.”
Lyla felt the broad palm’s warmth on top of her head, with a kind of tenderness that only belonged to a father’s love. She couldn’t help but glance at her dad, her heart was suddenly filled with a sense of security… That scu mbag didn’t seem to be that annoying. However, as soon as the idea came up, she warned herself to keep standing beside her mom.
Then, after the treatment was done, Lucas lightly told Jason, “Make sure it doesn’t get wet!”
Jason nodded, “It’s getting late. I’ll pack up and get ready to take a shower and go to bed.” As he spoke, he hugged them. naturally and kissed their foreheads respectively, “Good night.”
