Chapter 1325 Run Away From Home
“Mr. Davin, I’m so bored. No one plays with me here. Mommy’s always busy with work, while Daddy’s engaged with managing his winery. They are busy dealing with their stuff during the day and rarely talk to each other at night, even when sitting together. I-I feel…” After giving it some thought, Luke continued, “I feel that they are too courteous and distant with each other. It makes me feel awkward when sitting with them.” With that, he lowered his head and sighed once again.
Shocked, Davin scanned Luke carefully and said, “How do you know what courteous and distant mean? Also, are you sure you know what it means to feel awkward?”
Luke looked up at him and explained, “I heard Mommy mention those words when she was on the phone with Aunt Sheila. She said that she and Daddy were being courteous and distant with one another. As for feeling awkward, I heard it from stories, so I know what it means.”
My goodness! This kid has a good memory at such a young age! After coming to his senses, Davin stroked Luke’s head and suggested, “How about I bring you to Imperial Garden so that you can play with Joy and Zayden?”
Luke agreed to it but began to worry about his parents the next moment. “Mr. Davin, will they stop talking to each other if I’m gone? Will they become even more distant?”
Davin mulled over it and replied, “Don’t worry. They won’t. Besides, I have a plan to make sure that they will grow closer to each other.”
“Really? If that’s true, I’ll have to thank you in advance.”
“Don’t mention it. Let’s go. Tell your mom and dad before I bring you to Imperial Garden.”
“Okay.”
After learning that Luke wanted to go to Imperial Garden, Levant asked in surprise, “Is the winery not good for you? Why do you want to go to Imperial Garden?”
Crossing his arms, Davin heaved a sigh and interrupted, “Of course, it isn’t good enough. If not, why would he choose to run away from home?”
“Run away from home?” Astonished, Levant stood up from his wooden chair and eyed Luke. “Luke, have I not been treating you well? Why do you intend to run away from home? Do you hate this place?”
Before Luke could say anything, Davin added, “You’ve been treating him very well, and this place is wonderful. It’s just that Luke can’t feel the warmth in the family because you’re not treating his mommy well enough. Hence, he has chosen to run away from home.”
Levant frowned and retorted, “Nonsense! I’ve been showering him with love, so has Tiffany. Why can’t he feel the warmth in the family?”
Davin remained composed as he argued, “There’s something wrong with your statement. You and Tiffany shouldn’t be two separate and independent entities. Instead, there ought to be true love between you guys before you love your child together. It is the only way for Luke to feel the warmth, harmony, and love in the family.”
There ought to be true love between Tiffany and me? That’s an uphill task.
Levant cast a skeptical glance at Davin upon hearing his suggestion.
I can treat Tiffany well and regard her as my family member. However, to love her… How can I force myself to love someone? I mean, if it’s feasible, why are so many people troubled by love?
“Levant, you’re a man. Be proactive and treat Tiffany well. After all, it isn’t an arduous task, right?”
At that moment, Levant frowned. It was as though he was forced to do something he was unwilling to do.
As the adults fell silent, Luke gazed at his father and said, “Daddy, I’ll stay at Imperial Garden for a few days. I hope you and Mommy can be happy together.”
“Luke, how long do you plan to stay there?” Levant was reluctant to part with his beloved son.
“I’ll stay there for…”
Since Luke had no idea, he scratched his head bewilderedly and looked up at Davin. Receiving his signal, the latter coughed and answered on his behalf, “Luke will stay there until you and Tiffany get along well like lovebirds. He will come home when he feels that he doesn’t have to protest by running away from home anymore.”
Levant’s face fell once Davin finished his sentence. That’s asking too much of me!
