Chapter 734 Sam felt Johnâs grip on his hand tighten, and he subconsciously glanced at John.
âDaddy, you like Mommy, donât you?â
John looked at Sam and glared at him. âStop talking nonsense!â
âOneâs eyes when one like someone. Your eyes gave you away.â
John pulled him out of the house and snapped, âI am warning you, donât talk nonsense when you enter. Otherwise, Iâll send you to Ferances!â
The more one cared for someone, the angrier one would be once exposed. The fear of losing the person he loved had proven Samâs guess of Johnâs feelings.
Sam pursed his lips and made a gesture with his hand. âUnderstood.â
Wilbur was already there with a few men and a camera when they were in the villa. He beckoned John to sit on the right, with Sam between Zac and him.
Olivia sat on the left with Zac, making their relationship clear.
Wilbur took a few photos of them before he started recording the video.
John and Zac were in the limelight of this video, and they read out the speech they had memorized. They even had some interaction with Sam and occasionally spoke to Olivia. With that, a five-minute video was shot.
âMr. Quinton, please give me ten minutes to edit.â
âOkay.â
Only after the cameras were gone did Sam ask timidly, âDoes this mean that Mommy will not be able to visit me, and we wonât be able to meet anymore?â
Olivia looked at Zac, and Zac smiled. âOf course not. You can come here whenever you want to meet your Mommy. Itâs alright.
After all, I have difficulties walking.â
With that, he pointed his leg.
âUncle Zac, will your leg be cured?â
âI think so. Iâm not sure either.â
Sam pondered and suddenly asked, âUncle Zac, will you blame Mommy for accompanying me on my birthday yesterday, especially... about the parent kid outfits?â
Zac reached out and touched Zacâs head. âNo. Donât worry. However, you have to be careful of what you say when strangers ask you about it.â
Sam nodded. âI understand.â
After a while, Wilbur handed the tablet to Zac. âIâm done editing the video.â
The two-minute video briefly explained the relationship between the four and what happened and finally asked reporters not to disturb Samâs life.
âPost it.â
âOkay.â
Olivia went to the kitchen, looked around, and asked Sam and John, âWhy donât you stay and have dinner to prevent others from thinking we are putting on a show?â
âOkay.â
The atmosphere among the four was awkward, and the entire meal was dull.
Apart from serving Sam and Zac, Olivia did not eat much herself.
After a while, Mrs. Simmons called her into the kitchen and handed her a bowl of chicken soup. âMiss, drink some of this.â
Olivia looked at Mrs. Simmons bewilderedly. âMrs. Simmons, this is...â
âI know you donât have much appetite eating out there.â
âWell, a little.â
She had no idea why she felt the four of them eating at a table was strange. It would be fine if she had a meal with any one of them alone. However, when they were together, it was... strange. She felt uncomfortable.
Mrs. Simmons sighed. âMiss, sometimes we have to be open-minded. Mr. Quinton is nice to you, and you should free yourself from the bounds you had at home before.â
Like at home before...
She could never be her old self anymore. There was no one she felt could accept her free and stubborn self.
At the dining table, Sam looked for an excuse to go to the kitchen, leaving John and Zac alone.
They looked at each other and put down their cutlery.
