Chapter 50 A Past Mistake
ZAIA. “You speak as if you care… not once have you allowed us or Sebastian to see the children. What was he doing with you anyway?” Aran replies.
I frown. It’s not like they reached out determined to see the children. Perhaps Sebastian didn’t want them to, but regardless, it’s not like they tried.
“I do apologise for that,” I begin, deciding to be the better person. “As for Sebastian… we have… rekindled our relationship.” I close my eyes, hoping I’m not making things worse by saying that. Although I think Sebastian would simply find it amusing and probably won’t let me live it down.
“Oh? So let me get this straight. You kept us away from the children for years, then you suddenly get back with Sebastian and that’s when he’s suddenly attacked. And now you want to talk to us?” Aran’s words sting.
“Because I thought you’d be more concerned about his condition, than why I’m the one who is making this call? Not once have you asked how he is, Mr King…”
“You said he’s doing well. I know my son is strong enough to recover.” He says curtly. “Then… would you like to see him?” I ask.
“Ye-” Agatha is cut off, and I wait for Aran to speak. “We won’t step onto that pack’s ground. Since you two have made amends, then isn’t it correct you bring my son, and my grandchildren to me?”
“Very well, as soon as I have my things prepared, and Sebastian is a little better, I will bring him home,” I say. This isn’t the way this conversation was meant to go. “Make haste.”
