Chapter 1564: Chapter 1564: You Abandoned Your Wife and Child
The little kids who were fighting were stunned, "Wow, that’s Ethan Ashworth’s dad! He’s really tall, strong, and handsome. So everything Ethan Ashworth said is true..."
Saying this, the kids looked disdainfully at their own dads.
The dads quickly kicked their own sons, "Look at the trouble you got me into, almost causing trouble for us. Do you know who Ethan Ashworth’s dad is? From now on, when you see Ethan Ashworth, stay far away from him!"
The kids watched in thoughtful silence as Morgan Ashworth disappeared from view. Why did they feel like... Ethan Ashworth’s dad seemed like President Ashworth from the TV and newspapers?
...
Inside the jeep.
Morgan Ashworth glanced through the rearview mirror at the little kid in the back seat. Ethan Ashworth was crying very sadly, clutching his big backpack tightly like a stray cat.
"Ethan Ashworth, aren’t you embarrassed? Just a couple of hits and you’re crying like that!"
Ethan Ashworth took a tissue and wiped his tears and nose by himself, "I’m not embarrassed, you’re the embarrassing one! They talk about your scandals outside!"
Morgan Ashworth’s eyes became sharp as he scolded, "What do you know about scandals?"
"Oh, right, it’s not scandals. You abandoned your wife and child and want to commit bigamy. I’m going to report you!"
Morgan Ashworth’s large hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. Three years had passed, yet he still couldn’t bear to hear such words, they pained him.
What abandonment?
He had no wife at all.
But Ethan Ashworth didn’t understand.
He didn’t know how to explain it to his son.
Ethan Ashworth sobbed, feeling like his life was miserable, "Grandma Pace always says you’re... very busy, so busy that you didn’t even come on my first day of kindergarten. What are you busy with? You... busy chasing women, you don’t care about me at all, you don’t love me at all, all you know is... hit me, I must not be your real son, you... bully me because I have no mom. If my mom were here, it would be great, she must be the... gentlest and best mom in the world, she would... protect me..."
Mom...
Mom...
The repeated cries of "mom" were like needles that constantly pricked Morgan Ashworth’s nerves. He scolded unhappily, "Stop crying, how is this crying like someone from the Ashworth family?"
Ethan Ashworth immediately retorted, "Then I must take after my mom! My mom must cry a lot, you must make her cry all the time, you deserve it, my mom left you!"
The veins on Morgan Ashworth’s forehead throbbed. He took a deep breath and, with eyes red with anger, warned, "Ethan Ashworth, shut up! Say one more word and I’ll leave you by the roadside!"
Ethan Ashworth snorted and stopped talking, seeing that his dad wasn’t kidding and might really leave him on the roadside. He knew when to yield.
...
Inside the villa.
The servant opened the door, and Ethan Ashworth walked in. At this time, Aunt Pace hurried up to him, "Little Young Master, you’re back."
As she spoke, Aunt Pace paused and saw the red mark on Ethan Ashworth’s face, asking immediately, "Little Young Master, what’s wrong with your face? Was it a fight with other kids? Outrageous, who dared to hit our Little Young Master..."
"Grandma Pace," Ethan Ashworth shoved his backpack into Aunt Pace’s arms, "I started it. Even though they all ganged up on me, they couldn’t beat me."
"Little Young Master, what’s wrong, have you been... crying?"
