Early the next morning, Lucy specially cooked some lean meat porridge and took the little fellow to the First Hospital.

Caden followed her reluctantly and entered the ward. "Thank you for yesterday's gift."

He said it in a very insincere way.

"Do you like it?" Arthur put the document aside, and an unnatural smile appeared on his face—in fact, it was a fake smile.

In order to be his stepfather, he had read children's psychology books and knew that children didn't like cold people.

"It doesn't matter if you like it or not. You've already sent it to me. Is it useful to ask now?" Caden had a good impression of Arthur for no reason. Caden hated him since he was a child. If he didn't hack his company's computer and reveal the secrets of the Johnson family, he would show mercy!

He didn't expect that a four-year-old boy would say that. Arthur, who had always been proud of his business career, was a little confused.

This child was completely different from the children's psychology that he had seen in children's psychology. There was no resemblance at all!

They looked at each other and did not speak. The ward fell into a strange silence.

"A toy car, a deformed diamond... I don't want to play with such things anymore." Standing there in embarrassmentLucy broke the silence. "He usually plays with the Magic Cube and computers."

The special assistant sent hundreds of children's toys last night and piled them up on the ground.

When Caden saw the sake doll inside, his little face turned green!

"Then I'll give you the Magic Cube and computer next time. Don't be unhappy," Arthur said dryly, not knowing how to get along with the child.

Lucy felt that Arthur was completely different from his usual cold and arrogant self. It was a little... funny.

But now, the atmosphere was obviously not suitable for laughter.

"I'm more than four years old. I'm not a three-year-old child. Don't treat me like a child!" Caden's anger since he was born was all used on his scum.

In short, he didn't like anything that a scumbag like him would do!

Lucy: "..."

Three years old and four years old were children. What was the difference?

Arthur frowned. He glanced at the angry little fellow, then took a fruit knife, peeled an apple, and handed it to the little fellow with some flattery.

He liked this child very much.

"..." Caden stared at the apple with only an apple core left and looked at the thin and uneven apple skin in the trash can. She hesitated for a moment and caught the apple.

He didn't forgive the scum, he just... just didn't want to waste food!

Seeing that the two of them did not quarrel again, Lucy heaved a sigh of relief. Otherwise, she really did not know who she should help when her son quarreled with her father.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Chad knocked on the door a few times. Under Arthur's cold gaze, he took small steps forward and said in an aggrieved voice, "Brother... Arthur, I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me..."

He must have had a stroke in his brain, that's why he invited Nick, that idiot, to the celebration feast!

Arthur ignored him and turned his gaze from him to the little guy who was eating an apple.

"Handsome boy." Chad squatted down with a pitiful look on his face. "For the sake of my brother's sincerity in holding a celebration feast for you, please forgive my brother!"

"Uncle, it's not easy for you to get old. I forgive you." Caden threw the apple core into the garbage basket and raised her small eyebrows.

Chad was speechless.

He was only 27 and in his prime. He was a prince in the dreams of countless girls. How could he be so old?!

However, as a real man, he could do whatever he wanted. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the little girl's little hands, which were stained with apple juice.

"Arthur." Chad came here today for something serious. "Uncle and Auntie already knew about your crime. They asked you to go back."

"No, I won't." Arthur's face was expressionless as he rejected without hesitation.

Lizbeth had done so many bad things to Lucy. On account of the friendship between the two families, he did not throw her into prison!

Chad was in a dilemma. "Auntie told you to go back, or else..."

"Or what?" Arthur's brows were tightly furrowed. He didn't like the feeling of being threatened.

Chad stole a glance in Lucy's direction, licked his lips, and said cautiously, "Auntie said that you can choose whether to go back or divorce my sister-in-law."

The further he went, the softer his voice became.

Lucy's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the little fellow and said, "Caden, how about we go back and change clothes first? You have to go to the Go Contest at half past ten."

She didn't want the child to know about the dispute between adults.

"Okay—" Caden responded in a childish voice and held her hand with her eyes lowered. He hated her even before he saw her grandmother!

After telling Arthur, Lucy led the little fellow out of the hospital.

"Mommy, why are you with Daddy? Is Maddox not good?" When they got into the car, the little fellow asked seriously.
