Chapter 1401: Chapter 1398 David Redington is Moved

Ben Lucas glanced at Ethan Wilson and said indifferently, "Even though I may not be satisfied with him, he is still my father. He’s also Abbie and Lulu’s father, as well as the father of the baby in mother’s belly that’s yet to be born."

"So, Uncle David, if you don’t despise him to the extent that he is unbearable, let him be with mother."

Ben finished speaking in one breath, leaving the three people present astonished.

Ethan Wilson hadn’t expected his son, who had coldly expressed over the phone that he would see the situation upon his return and might not speak up for him, to decisively stand by his side upon meeting.

And Lily was stunned by her son’s feelings towards Ethan Wilson.

The scenes of their arguments and biting remarks whenever the father and son met had played out countless times.

Lily had never thought that one day Ben would stand up for Ethan Wilson and plead on his behalf.

As for David Redington, he was completely shocked by Ben Lucas’ words.

"Ben... didn’t you hate your father? Why would you speak for him?"

David didn’t understand Ben’s feelings, but he found that he couldn’t refuse Ben as easily as he could Ethan Wilson.

In fact, he couldn’t exert his uncle’s authority over Ben as he did with Abbie and Lulu.

In the face of Ben Lucas, besides joy and affection, David always felt a deep sense of guilt.

The scene of the little lad, thin and small, tucked away in an incubator for over seven months had always been firmly etched in his memory.

And the one who had unexpectedly caused Lily’s premature labor was David himself.

If he hadn’t been overly confident in taking Lily, who was seven months pregnant, to Rodney Rhodes’ banquet.

Lily wouldn’t have stumbled upon the bloody scene of Ethan Wilson castigating Hannah Ford and been stimulated into early labor.

Upon hearing David’s question, Ben suddenly hung his head low.

Looking at his own toes, he said softly, "Perhaps it’s because... I don’t like to see his lonely silhouette."

Ben thought back to over two weeks ago when Ethan Wilson had left, waving goodbye with his back turned to him.

During that moment, Ethan Wilson seemed so solitary and desolate.

"Uncle..." Ben suddenly looked up, his eyes, like obsidian, flashing with yearning.

"I don’t want him to be all alone. I’ve been alone since I was little, with only Dad to accompany me. Now that mother has returned, she, Abbie, Lulu, and I are all together. Only he is left..."

"He looks so pitiful... I... can’t bear it."

After all, he is still my father.

Although Ben had always enjoyed challenging Ethan Wilson from a young age, it didn’t mean he didn’t care about this man.

This man was the only one who accompanied and understood him during his cold and lonely childhood.

"Ben..." Lily’s nose felt sore, and she wrapped her arms around her son’s small shoulders.

Her Ben, whom she had missed throughout his childhood, whom she had left behind in her home country.

At that moment, Ethan Wilson also stepped closer to the two.

He stretched out a long arm, wrapped it tightly around Lily’s waist, and with his other hand, he naturally drew Ben’s small figure into his embrace.

"Ben... thank you."

His memory was filled with many past fragments.

Of Ben, always clashing with his second persona, and the father and son, always expressing disdain yet holding a mutual fondness for each other.

Two lonely and cold souls, warming each other, comforting each other.

Ethan Wilson closed his eyes, hugging tight his two precious found-again treasures.

Silently, in his heart, he thanked that other bold and stubborn man,

Thank you, another Ethan Wilson.

Thank you for taking care of my child and warming his lonely heart in those days I was absent.

...

The sight of the family of three embracing each other was so warm and tranquil.

Watching them, David suddenly found himself completely unable to voice any opposition.
