“I can’t understand Liberty’s reasoning. She left Sonny behind in Wiltspoon when she should have taken him with her, especially after fighting so hard for custody,” Mrs. Brown muttered under her breath, clearly frustrated. Deep down, she wanted Hank to take legal action to regain custody of Sonny. However, she recognized that doing so might not be in Sonny’s best interest, and besides, Hank had no intention of heeding her advice.
“Liberty went to Jensburg, and there may be challenges we aren’t aware of. If she could, she would have taken Sonny with her. She deeply cares about his education and has done a commendable job raising him,” Mr. Brown responded in a more measured tone. Although he wasn’t particularly fond of Duncan, he couldn’t deny the man’s love for Sonny.
Sonny had naturally bonded with Serenity, having spent much of his upbringing with her. Since Serenity was close to Duncan, it made sense that Sonny also had affection for him. Mr. Brown chose not to voice this observation, knowing it would only spark an argument with his wife, who seemed determined to resent Duncan.
“Look, here comes Sonny,” Mr. Brown said, nudging his wife.
The couple’s faces brightened with smiles as they hurried forward.
“Sonny!”
“Sonny!”
Mrs. Brown bent down, arms outstretched, eager to embrace him.
However, Sonny stepped back, politely calling out, “Grandpa, Grandma,” before running toward Duncan.
“Uncle Duncan!” Sonny exclaimed cheerfully, his bright voice freezing the smiles on Mr. and Mrs. Brown’s faces.
Without hesitation, Sonny wrapped his arms around Duncan, leaving his biological grandparents standing awkwardly in the background.
Duncan lifted Sonny and said warmly, “Say goodbye to your teacher first, Sonny.”
After doing so, Sonny returned and…

beamed at Duncan. “Did you behave in kindergarten today? Do you have any homework tonight? Did you miss me?” Duncan asked gently. “I behaved really well! No homework today—I memorized everything! I can recite it all without looking at the book. And yes, I missed you, Mom, Aunt Seren, and Uncle Zack. I miss everyone!” Sonny said with a sweet smile that could charm anyone.

Duncan chuckled, clearly pleased. Lowering his head, he kissed Sonny’s chubby cheek. Sonny giggled and touched his cheek, then teasingly remarked, “Uncle Duncan, you need to shave! Your beard is scratchy!”

Duncan laughed. “Understood, Sonny. From now on, I’ll shave every day just for you.”

Mrs. Brown stepped forward again, trying to hug Sonny. “Sonny, Sonny—” But Duncan’s sharp gaze halted her. She awkwardly withdrew her hand and forced a smile. “Mr. Lewis, may we speak to Sonny for a moment?”

Duncan replied coolly, “That’s up to Sonny. If he’s okay with it, I won’t stop you.” Noticing the bag of food Mr. Brown was holding, Duncan frowned slightly. “Uncle, Auntie, Sonny had a fever yesterday. The doctor said it was due to a sore throat. The fried chicken and chips you gave him the other day caused inflammation. And now you’ve brought him KFC again? If he eats this, he might get sick again. Please be more mindful of what you give him in the future.”

Mrs. Brown’s face stiffened as she hurriedly touched Sonny’s forehead. “A fever? Sonny, are you okay now? Do you feel uncomfortable? You shouldn’t go to school if you’re unwell. Take a day or two off to rest. Honestly, he barely ate any fried chicken that day—how could just a little make him sick?”
