“Because…” Archie and Benny couldn’t just ignore their sister’s pleading look.
In the end, Benny made up a reason. “Maybe it’s because Mommy wants to test Mr. Farwell further! After all, they
didn’t seem happy when they separated back then.”
Estella furrowed her eyebrows, perplexed. I know I don’t know about Daddy and Mommy’s matters as much as they
do, but I think that’s the case based on what Daddy said when he proposed to Mommy. What happened when they
initially separated? Why did Mommy abandon me?
When Benny saw that his answer removed the smile on his sister’s face after he ruined his mother’s mood, he was
in full panic mode. “I-It’s going to be fine! As long as Mr. Farwell performs well, Mommy will forgive him eventually
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand accept his proposal!”
Still, Estella remained worried. “But what if Daddy feels he has lost all hope after Mommy rejects him this time?
What do we do, then?”
I helped Daddy chase after Mommy, so I know he’ll overthink things. He would get angry and stop pursuing Mommy
if she had a tiny issue. The more Estella thought about the times when her father got jealous, the more concerned
she was. In the past, I would advise Daddy. But now, he doesn’t have anyone like that! If I had known this would
happen, I would’ve stayed by his side obediently…
Her words threw Benny’s mind into further chaos. “I don’t think so?”
Daddy’s probably not that fragile! He glanced at his phone watch. I still haven’t received any news. Did Daddy really
give up? But he taught the bad lady a lesson this morning!
“Why not?” Archie was similarly dumbstruck by Benny’s words. “Mr. Farwell’s personality is exactly the same as
yours, which is to say he always gets very emotional. Who knows what he’s thinking right now?”
That instantly shifted Benny’s attention. “There’s no way I’m similar to Mr. Farwell when I’m so cute and lively!
You’re the one who resembles Mr. Farwell! You always have that lack of expression on your face, just like him! I
resemble Mommy the most!”
Estella was also attracted by her brother’s conversation. She uttered innocently, “I should be the one who
resembles Mommy the most!” Mommy’s a girl, and I’m a girl too! Besides, Mommy is really pretty, so when I grow
up, I’ll be as pretty as her, too!
Her participation in the conversation stunned the boys for a moment.
“I don’t care! I don’t want to resemble Mr. Farwell!” Benny turned away and left with a pout.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAm I really that similar to Daddy? Okay, maybe we look a little alike. We’re both handsome, after all. However, our
personalities are completely different! Daddy’s not talkative and he’s always expressionless, unlike me, who’s lively,
cute, smart, and has a sharp tongue! Everyone loves me.
“Don’t you like Mr. Farwell the most—” Archie was going to joke about his brother when he saw the latter walking
toward the sea.
“Come back, Benny!” he yelled and promptly chased after him.
Benny was still so deep in his thoughts that he couldn’t hear Archie and kept marching forward. The loud waves
didn’t help either.
