Chapter 89

The moment Clara pushed the door to the game room, she saw Alex engrossed in a video

game

What a contrast to his helpless voice over the phone.

If she had known he was chillin‘ like a villain, she wouldn’t have rushed over!

‘Alex does your wound still hurt?”

“Ouch!” Alex shot his mom a sidelong glance and immediately clutched his wound, “Mom,

it really hurts!”

Clara was speechless, Alex your lie is as clear as day! Didn’t I tell you not to fib?”

Alex stuck out his tongue, I’m sorry, Mom! I just wanted you to come over so you could

marry Mr. Milburn! That’s why I fooled you, I’m sorry”

Clara paused, taking a deep breath, “Alex, do you really want Mr. Milburn to be your dad

that bad?

Alex nodded vigorously, “Yes, Mr. Milburn is really good to me, he’s exactly the kind of dad

I want.”

Clara found a seat, telling her son, Alex, listen to me! We can’t be selfish. Mr. Milburn has

never been married and doesn’t have his own kids. If he became your dad, it would be like

we’re just causing him trouble, get it?”

Alex was a bit lost, blinking in confusion, “But why? I think Mr. Milburn really likes you,

Mom!”

“The world of grown–ups is complicated! I can’t explain it all now, but when you’re older,

you’ll understand! If you really like him, you should hope he finds a partner soon, and

gives you a little brother or sister.”

Hearing this. Alex said. “But if he has his own kids, he won’t love me as much!”

“What are you talking about? He’ll always like you! And you’ll always have me Clara

smiled, “If you want to be a good boy, you can’t be so headstrong”

“I’m not being headstrong Mom, he really likes you and he asked me to play matchmaker!

And I really like Mr. Milburn, I don’t want any other dad. I want him!”

“So you didn’t take to heart what I just told you?”

“But but if Mr Milburn and I like each other, why can’t we be a family?”

Alex’s little face was full of questions.

Adults‘ world was too complicated! It made him feel confused.

Clara opened her mouth but didn’t know how to answer

She couldn’t possibly tell Alex that they were a burden for Mr. Milburn right now, could

she? That would hurt his self–esteem.

“Long story short, he and I can’t get hitched.”

“So when will I get a dad?”

“When did you start wanting a dad so much?” Clara asked, “Didn’t you say before that you

didn’t want a dad?”

“I want one now! Mr. Milburn takes me places you can’t and buys me toys you won’t. I

want a dad like him!”

“Ah! So you’re basically smitten by Mr. Milburn’s money, huh?”

That Elio! He’s spoiling Alex rotten!

Luckily, Alex didn’t grow up by Elio’s side, otherwise, this kid would be a handful!
