Children who don’t return ho worry their families.
Moreover, his family was none other than Aidan Lucas.
“Yes, I’ve said, I won’t go back for now.”
Having heard that Aidan Lucas had beco involved with his secretary, he harbored no wish to interact with a man who thought with his lower body.
Moreover, if he didn’t stay with Lily tonight, he feared she would shed tears in secret again.
Seeing the woman still standing motionless, the little boy delivered another potent blow.
“If you don’t want to take in today, then I’ll have no choice but to sleep on the streets.”
He cast his eyes downward, revealing a sowhat desolate expression.
His long eyelashes drooped as well, casting a shadow beneath his eyes.
That made him look pitiful and heartbreakingly endearing.
How could Lily bear to let her son sleep on the streets?
She thought about how Milly Gray and the others had slandered Ben behind his back; she thought about Emily Taylor’s assessnt of Ben.
Ben was clearly such an understanding and pitiable child; why did they have to misunderstand him?
She didn’t know that her son presented one persona in front of her and an entirely different one to others.
Lily only saw Ben’s lonely and desolate side, and she couldn’t help recalling an old saying, “A child without a mother is like a blade of grass.”
Indeed, it seed to be true. Even though her Ben was a young master of the Lucas family, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, without her by his side to care for him, he still led an unhappy life.
Thinking this, her nose imdiately soured.
She quickly turned around, squatted down, and embraced the little tail that had been following her.
“You don’t have to sleep on the streets, how about Aunt Lily stays with you tonight?”
Embraced fully by Lily, the desolation and regret in the little boy’s eyes instantly disappeared.
No wonder children his age liked to play the pity card; it turned out to be so effective.
The young Ben Lucas remained silent, only nodding in Lily’s arms with a muffled gesture.
This tugged at Lily’s heartstrings, and she couldn’t bring herself to let go of her son.
She simply lifted her son into her arms and held him close, then swiped her card to unlock the hotel room door.

Ti rewound to three hours earlier.
Upstairs in the banquet hall’s VIP room.
Aidan Lucas was sitting with a dark expression, silently facing Emily Taylor and Simon Taylor.
“Ethan, Mom specifically ca down from the mountain this ti to find you a suitable wife. You can’t be alone for a lifeti, and even if not for yourself, you have to think about Ben. You’re a man, and you simply can’t take care of a child. If Ben continues like this, sooner or later he will turn out like…”
Like you!
Emily abruptly stopped herself.
She almost blurted out what was in her heart.
Aidan Lucas gave Emily a cold glance, knowing well what she had been about to say outright.
What she ant was that, sooner or later, Ben would beco a terrible monster just like him.
Heh, the man’s lips curled into a cold smirk.
If it wasn’t for the presence of Simon Taylor, he really wanted to lay everything out with his dear mother.
Simon sensed the tense atmosphere between them and attempted to smooth things over.
“Emily, don’t say that. Ben is still young and can be taught in ti. As for Ethan, I was the one who previously made a wrong judgnt, even wanting him to marry Milly Gray for family intimacy. If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have been so resistant to matchmaking.”
“Sigh, it’s my fault; I’ve been too negligent towards Ethan. But your uncle has intentions to make ands today, having specially chosen a number of girls from good families who are also beautiful.”
At this, Simon turned his head towards Aidan Lucas.
“Ethan, among the girls who ca today, several of them are quite impressive.”
