Chapter: 1309
"Kid,
I really don't understand one thing."
"You're an adult, yet you don't even understand everything. Then do you think I, a three-year-old child, can understand what is even beyond your comprehension?"
Joey walked away from Carson's extended arm. But this time, Carson didn't intend to let him go so easily.
"Joey, even if you don't like your father, you must know that he saved you." Carson creased his brows.
"It's not too much to ask you to visit him, isn't it? I really don't understand why you hate him so much. Where is your loathe coming from? Why don't you make an effort and go see him now? He put his life on the line-and almost lost it-just to save you, kid. Do you know what he looked Like when he knew you're his son and the expression he wore when he found out something had happened to you?"
Carson touched Joey's forehead.
“How can you be so heartless? You don't even acknowledge him as your own father."
Hearing this, Joey shook off Carson's hand and his eyes suddenly turned red.
"It's not that I don't recognize him. It's because he doesn't want me!"
Joey's revelation stunned Carson.
“What? He doesn't want you? Are you kidding me? You have no idea how happy he is to know that you're his son! Why would you ever think that he doesn't want you?"
"He abandoned me." The grief Joey had been suppressing the past few days had riled up inside him and was released under the guise of tears welling up in his eyes. He was a kid, after all.
Panic overwhelmed Carson as he saw little Joey starting to cry. He reached out his hand and tried to wipe the little guy's tears, but
Joey turned his head sideways, avoiding his hand.
"Joey, is there some kind of misunderstanding between..
" A thought crossed Carson's mind before he could finish his sentence. ‘Of course, that must be it. A misunderstanding!" wiped his tears with the back of his hand.
"There's nothing that."
Joey, listen to me. Your father didn't mean to deny you. He~ going abroad." Joey interrupted him with red eyes.
Carson was taken by surprise.
“You're going abroad?"
"Yes." Joey nodded.
“Mommy has made up her mind. We will leave
Apliaria after the cast is removed next week. She plans on Leaving for good. With me, of course."
The news sent Carson's brows knitted together. He looked serious.
