Chapter 275: Chapter 275: Being a Good Dad (5)

Since they couldn’t let go and had already wasted five years, they had to hurry up and spend time together now, as life didn’t afford them many more five-year spans to squander.

"Dad, what are you talking nonsense?" Carolline Ruiz, who was washing shrimps, pouted. She didn’t see Bryan Hawkins intending to treat her well this time, let alone be a good dad to their son. However, that was what she saw.

Probably anyone with eyes could see that.

But treating her well? She didn’t feel it at all. Anyway, she didn’t care if he treated her well or not.

"Fine, anyway, your mom and I didn’t plan to interfere in your affair. In short, we thought Bryan would stay this time and certainly wanted to reconcile with you. But how you want to mess around is your business. However, a word of reminder from your dad, don’t go too far. In the beginning, what exactly led to your divorce? Have you asked clearly? Misunderstandings between two people actually need communication. Like you two, not saying anything would naturally waste time."

After saying that, Henry Ruiz left the kitchen.

Carolline stood there in a daze, and the water she let out even overflowed from the basin without her noticing it.

It’s just that in those days when she was with Bryan Hawkins, she indeed had many ideas, but she had never talked to Bryan about them. Maybe he was the same.

She only assumed she liked him so much that whatever he said was true, without asking too much. But Henry’s words just now made her realize that it seemed she was wrong.

Was it really not just Bryan’s fault that they became like this?

——Divider——

In the restroom, Bryan Hawkins, who vowed to be a good dad, took the initiative to help Axel wash his hands. Emily Hill came over and shook her head, "Axel could wash his hands by himself before he turned three, are you treating him as a baby?"

Although Emily Hill didn’t approve of Bryan’s spoiling Axel like this, she also understood Bryan’s feelings of wanting to make up for the child’s lost years, so she didn’t heavily criticize him.

After that, she left.

The father and son in the room shared a laugh, and Bryan earnestly helped Axel wash his hands. Axel was very satisfied, looking at Bryan’s serious appearance. Suddenly, Axel got mischievous. He scooped some water and splashed it on Bryan. Bryan was not to be outdone. He started scooping water and splashing it at Axel as well.

Father and son began a water fight in the restroom, occasionally laughing out loud. When one basin of water was gone, they filled another and continued. Emily Hill and Henry Ruiz had a talk in their own room for a while. When they came out, Carolline had already set the table, ready for dinner. But Bryan and Axel hadn’t appeared in the living room yet.

They heard the two giggling from the restroom and walked toward it. The restroom had turned into their Water Park, with water everywhere on the walls and floor, and the towel hanging in the restroom had suffered from their water fight as well.

"You guys..." Emily Hill didn’t know what to say. It was excusable for Axel, who was young and naive. But Bryan, who was much older, acted so absurdly with the child.

"Sorry, Auntie, I..." Bryan realized that he had made a mistake, stood up and apologized immediately. He didn’t mean it; he just couldn’t bear to see Axel’s laughter abruptly end.

So that’s what happened.

"Never mind, never mind. I’ll get you a set of your uncle’s clothes to change into. Since you’re both soaked, why not take a bath and then come out for dinner?" Emily Hill couldn’t blame them anymore. Axel was rarely so happy, and it didn’t matter if the towel was wet. It could be hung out to dry later.
