Married at First Sight Chapter 1662

Chapter 1662

“Yes. He treats me well.”

A child’s heart is pure.

Even at a young age, children understand who treats them kindly and who is merely pretending.

However, their ability to express their feelings can sometimes be limited by their age.

Duncan noticed Sonny first. He genuinely liked Sonny and always wanted to carry him back then.

At that time, Sonny was young and frightened by the scar on Duncan’s face, which led him to refuse Duncan’s embrace.

Duncan’s desire to carry Sonny was only fulfilled after they grew closer.

Duncan’s attention towards the mother-son duo stemmed from his affection for Sonny, which gradually developed into love for Sonny’s mother, Liberty.

“If Dunc treats you well and cares for you deeply, how could he ever take your mother away? Trust in Duncan. He will love both you and your mother; he won’t steal her away.”

Sonny felt reassured. He replied, “I won’t call him Dad then, Aunt Ser. Dad always says Dunc is evil.”

Dunc was so kind that he couldn’t understand why his dad would call Dunc bad.

Dunc spent more time with him than his dad did.

Dad was usually with Jess, who didn’t like him:

Whenever Dad wanted to spend time with Sonny, Jess would claim she had a stomachache, causing Dad to leave with her and neglect Sonny.

Dunc was different. When he promised to spend time with Sonny, he always kept his word. Unlike Dad, Dunc never broke his promises to buy him things.

“Sonny, as you grow up, you must learn to distinguish between good and bad. Although your father is your dad, his opinions about others may not be accurate. He might judge Duncan based on his own selfish views.

“Don’t worry about the negative things your father says about Duncan. If you believe Duncan is a good person who treats you well, that’s what matters.”

“You and your mother are doing well, so that’s enough,” she said.

Sonny, acting maturely, replied, “I told my dad the same thing. I said Dunc isn’t a bad person, but Dad still seemed upset.”

Serenity scolded Hank silently once more.

Fortunately, Sonny was a bright child. Since he didn’t spend much time with Hank, he remained unconfused.

“Aunt Ser, I won’t call Dad anymore. Everything’s fine now. You can keep working. I’m hanging up.”

After hearing Serenity’s response, Sonny quickly ended the call. He climbed onto the bed and sat down, pulling out his phone to watch videos.

His swift actions revealed that he was quite adept at using the device.

Liberty noticed that Sonny hadn’t come out for a while and recalled that he knew how to operate a phone. She called out, “Sonny, aren’t you done with your call? Return the phone to me if you’re finished.”

Sonny didn’t respond.

Concerned, Liberty stood up and walked toward his room. She opened the door to find him lying on the bed, watching videos with the fan on, laughing occasionally.

“Sonny!”

Liberty rushed over and took the phone from him.

Sonny sat up and looked at her with wide eyes, nervously saying, “Mom, I-I was just playing for a bit. I really was on a call with Aunt Ser just now.”

Liberty pocketed the phone and lifted him off the bed, admonishing him, “From now on, your calls with Aunt Ser should happen in front of me. No more hiding in your room.”

With just a moment of distraction, the child had managed to grab the phone.

As Sonny walked out, he muttered, “Aunt Ser and I have secrets to talk about. You can’t listen to them.”

Liberty was not

unsure whether to laugh or cry. The boy was increasingly resembling a small adult. “You’re on the phone all the time too. Why can’t I play on the phone?” Sonny questioned. Upon receiving a glare from Liberty, he quickly ran to Duncan’s side and hid beside him, even wrapping his arms around Duncan’s leg. Sonny was clearly relying on Duncan for support.
