Ethan’s Vengeance of Love -
Chapter 152
Chapter 152
“Alright, son. Let’s go home together.” Keith did not expect an upright child like Apollo to agree to hisrequest so readily, but he grinned from ear to ear from happiness after receiving the green light fromthe child.
Nevertheless, he wondered how his grandfather would react when he brought his son home.
Keith stood up and naturally reached out to hold Apollo’s hand. Although Apollo froze for a moment, hedid not pull his hand back and allowed Keith to hold his hand.
His mother loved holding his hand when he was younger. However, he refused to let her hold his handas he gradually grew older and became more mature. He had wanted to grow up quickly so that hecould share her burdens and protect her, instead of being protected by her.
There were too many things on her plate, which made her life very difficult.
Alas, it did not matter how early he matured or how responsible he was. He was ultimately a child lessthan seven years old who secretly longed to be loved and pampered just like any other children hisage.
That was why he did not refuse when Keith reached out to hold his hand.
When Keith reached out to hold his hand, his hand had stiffened for a moment before relaxing slowly.He glanced over with his black and bright eyes only to see Keith’s large hand wrapped around his smallhand.
The sight took him aback for a moment, but the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
His newly acknowledged father not only gave him a sense of security but most importantly, knew howto show him respect.
Unlike the other adults, this man had not attempted to control or even restrict him with the so-called‘adult mentality’.
Hence, he was very satisfied with his newly acknowledged father so far.
“Apollo, you also have a grandmother and a great-grandfather at home. Grandma is soft-hearted, so itshould be easy to win her over. Great-Grandpa might seem strict, but he is only tough on the outside.Once you figure out his temperament, he will happily accomplish whatever you want of him. You’resuch an intelligent boy, I’m sure you will have no trouble taming them. I guarantee you will have a greattime at home.” Keith’s words came from the bottom of his heart.
Apollo was so good-looking, adorable, and lovable that his grandmother and great-grandfather wouldsurely adore him. Combined with his intelligence and wit, they were bound to be wrapped around hisfinger in no time.
“What kind of children do Great-Grandpa and Grandma like?” Apollo couldn’t help feeling slightlyworried. He initially planned to accept them if they were willing to accept him and reconsider his optionsif they were not willing to accept him, but he now had a good impression of Keith.
His mother once told him that it was not healthy for one party to one-sidedly receive favors in arelationship. On the contrary, a relationship should be a two-way street where both parties gave andtook equally. Now that he had decided to acknowledge Keith as his father, he believed that he shouldalso do something for his father.
Keith was moved by the question. Apollo might seem mature for his age, but he was a sensitive andconsiderate child. Moreover, he was so level-headed that Keith couldn’t help feeling sad for him. I can’tbelieve he is already being so considerate toward others.
Keith crouched down so that he was at eye level with Apollo. “They love children like you. It doesn’tmatter what kind of person you are; they will love you regardless. That’s why you only need to act
yourself when you return home with me. There’s no need to force yourself or make any changes toyourself.”
“Understood.” Apollo glanced at Keith, who had gotten down to his eye level. A different set ofemotions appeared at the bottom of his eyes.
His lips parted slightly. In the end, he lowered his voice and shyly added, “Daddy.”
Since he genuinely liked his father, he decided to accept this man as his father. There was a sayingthat went, ‘blood was thicker than water’. Keith was his biological father, so it was not difficult for him tocall this man ‘Daddy’.
Keith’s body stiffened for a moment, then his expression suddenly became serious yet solemn. “Mybeloved son, you will always be my son no matter what happens in the future.”
Since he had acknowledged this young boy as his son, then he would always regard Apollo as hisbiological son. He would do for Apollo what a father could do for his son, but he would also do forApollo what a father could not do for his son.
From this moment onward, he would sincerely love and protect this child with all his might. He wouldmake sure that Apollo never regretted calling him ‘Daddy’.
He could guess why Alice had performed a paternity test between him and Apollo. She had most likelybeen drugged on that night seven years ago, so her consciousness would not have been very clear.There was a high possibility that she did not know the true culprit behind the incident that night.
Moreover, he happened to rescue her that night. Combined with the fact that he had asked her for herhand in marriage recently, it was only natural for her to mistakenly assume that he was the man fromseven years ago.
The reason she asked him for his hair back then was most likely to perform a paternity test betweenhim and Apollo.
However, he could not understand one thing. He was not Apollo’s biological father, so why did thepaternity test between him and Apollo come out positive?
Based on his understanding of Alice’s personality, she would never perform a fake paternity test.
In that case, something definitely went wrong with the paternity test.
He strongly believed that he ought to help Alice thoroughly investigate the incident that took placeseven years ago.
Needless to say, for the sake of protecting both Alice and Apollo, it was necessary to keep this matter asecret until the truth of the matter was revealed. He would reveal everything to Alice once the matterwas clarified so that she could decide for herself what to do with the information.
Be that as it may, it was a fact that he had acknowledged Apollo as his son today. Apollo was now hisson, and that fact would never change.
After Apollo got into the car with Keith, he took out a small bag. “Daddy, can I put on a disguise?”
“A disguise? Why would you need a disguise?” Keith was in no hurry to start driving. Instead, he turnedto look at Apollo with an obviously puzzled look on his face.
“My current appearance is quite similar to my mother’s, and I don’t want my mother to be affected bythis incident. Besides, I noticed that I don’t look like you, Daddy. I thought I could disguise myself sothat I looked more like you.” Apollo’s expression was very natural and casual when he made theremark.
Although his mother had never specifically taught him such things, she had never hidden anything fromhim. He had seen her putting on a disguise on several occasions, so he had learned most of the skillsand techniques involved.
He had made thorough preparations when he left the house today.
If his biological father was unsatisfactory, then he would not acknowledge the relationship. On the otherhand, if his biological father was satisfactory, then he would accept the relationship. Still, he knew thathe looked very similar to his mother.
If his appearance was similar to his biological father’s, then there was no need for him to put on adisguise. Unfortunately, he had taken a good look at his biological father earlier. He did not look similarto his biological father in terms of appearance.
Since he did not wish for this incident to cause any trouble for his mother, he decided that it was betterif he put on a disguise.
Keith looked at the seven-year-old boy in front of him who was outrageously good-looking andinvoluntarily raised his eyebrows questioningly. I can’t believe such a young child knows aboutdisguises, but how much can such a young child know about disguises?
He did not take Apollo’s statement seriously. At the same time, he did not wish to discourage the child’senthusiasm. That was why he enthusiastically went along with the situation and said, “Sure, you canput on a disguise. I will wait for you.”
Nevertheless, it was both touching and distressing for such a young child to be so considerate towardhis mother at all times. How is this child so sensible and responsible?
