My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 2067

I turned to look at Hendrix. With his eyes squinted, he seemed ready to make his move. He had a disdainful but also proud look on his face. It seemed as if he was saying, "You'll have to listen to me when it comes to teaching our children."

The moment I sighed, the door swung open from the inside with a loud thud.

Wynn glanced at me and saw Hendrix standing behind me. His bright eyes were glued to the ground as he left the room with his head down.

I crouched down to his eye level. My hands grabbed his arms as I asked with a smile, "Wynn, aren't you hungry? Why won't you come and eat? If you don't, Aurelia won't be able to enjoy her dinner. You don't want her to starve do you?"

Wynn shook his head and replied softly, "No I don't, but I made a mistake. If I make a mistake, I must be punished."

"Well..." I pondered for a moment and pretended to sound serious. I nodded and said, "You did make a mistake."

Wynn hung his head even lower and didn't dare to reply.

"Do you know what you did wrong?" I pressed.

"I shouldn't have talked back to daddy." Wynn pursed his lips. Feeling aggrieved, he continued, "I shouldn't have said that daddy was wrong." "So, since you've put it that way, you think that daddy is right and I'm wrong?"

"No," Wynn immediately looked up at me and nervously explained, but he couldn't put his finger on what exactly was wrong here. "That wasn't what I meant. I..."

He was so upset that tears started welling up in his eyes.

My heart melted. I immediately pulled him into my arms and tried to comfort him. I whispered, "Wynn, my dear, you haven't done anything wrong. If you think you're in the right, you should stand by it and express your thoughts. Neither your daddy nor your mommy is always right. We make mistakes too. Only by pushing people to improve, can they learn the truth about things. Today, you've made your own judgement and expressed your views. That is worthy of praise, do you understand?"

Wynn sniffed and held back his tears. He pulled away from my arms and asked, "Is that true? Was it really daddy's fault?"

When he said this, he stole a glance at Hendrix from the corner of his eyes. But when he met Hendrix's emotionless stare, he became so frightened that he quickly looked away.

"You and daddy are both in the wrong." I shook my head, pursed my lips and said, "Daddy is wrong because he was stubborn and didn't listen to his family's opinions. You're wrong for not respecting daddy. Did you know that we both worked very hard for a long time to bring both you and Aurelia into this world? Daddy suffered a lot to protect us. He may have a bad temper, but he's a man of indomitable spirit. Tell me, Wynn, having a father like him, isn't he worthy of your respect?"

Wynn nodded without hesitating, "Yes, he's worthy."

Noticing that he had understood the general idea, I patiently continued, "Today, in the car, you called daddy a fascist. Is that the right thing to say?" "No." Wynn shook his head, he looked very sincere.

I sighed out in relief and asked him with a smile, "What should you do then?"

After pondering for a bit, Wynn

looked up at Hendrix, pursed his lips, and solemnly apologized, "Daddy, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have called you a fascist. I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"

It was really easy to communicate with a child who was intelligent from a young age.

I sighed and stood up.

Hendrix was still sulking but responded slowly, "Alright."

He forgave Wynn.

It was still, however, impossible for him to let things slide.

Hendrix had roughly guessed what I was going to do. After he said that, he was about to turn and leave.

I reached out to grab his arm and said with a snigger, "Ahem... Mr. Roberts, shouldn't you be a good role model for the children?"

I hinted this at him by frantically blinking to indicate that there was no way he could get out of this unscathed.

He frowned and stared at me for a few seconds, then gave in and sighed.

He collected himself, lowered his head, and softly apologized, "I also made a mistake. Wynn, please forgive me as well."

It was so funny to see him embarrassed. I couldn't help laughing out loud.

A wide grin spread across Wynn's face as though he had discovered an amazing treasure. "Daddy, I

forgive you!"

Hendrix pursed his lips awkwardly and said nothing. After a moment, he dashed downstairs.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Wynn blinked and thought that he had offended Hendrix again and asked, "Is daddy unhappy?"

I placed my hand on his shoulder

and whispered, "Daddy is shy and et

embarrassed for admitting to hid. P

own mistakes. You have to help him

keep this a secret."

"Oh..." Wynn had come upon a

realization. He made a wide 0 shape with his mouth. He then raised his right index finger to his lips and shushed, "Shh..." "Hahaha.
