Chapter 68 What Happened Back Then
As soon as Elijah heard the pleasant voice, he stopped and looked at Sebastian. Seeing that he had a mask on his face, Elijah looked at him curiously and said, "Hey, do you know where there is hot water?"
He would get diarrhea if he drank cold milk.
Last time, he ran to the toilet once in a few minutes and suffered a lot.
His skin was scraped off. His feet ached when he walked.
He suffered because he didn't listen to his mommy.
Sebastian looked deeply at Elijah in front of him and said, "I know where there is hot water. I will take you there."
"Thanks!" Elijah gave Sebastian a friendly smile.
Sebastian couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth a little, looked at Christian, and said, "Go to the lounge."
"Okay!" Christian wheeled Sebastian back.
Sebastian looked at Elijah and said, "Come with me." His voice was subdued with excitement.
Elijah skipped and followed Sebastian to the lounge. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Sebastian couldn't help but smile as he looked at how lively and vivacious Elijah was.
In the lounge, under the bright lights, Elijah's face was almost identical to Waylon's. If he didn't speak, he'd look like another Waylon.
Sebastian went to boil water, looked at Elijah, and asked, "Why are you... still drinking powdered milk?"
He remembered Waylon refusing to take formula after he would eat solid foods.
Elijah looked at the masked man in front of him. Everyone seemed to ask Elijah that question. "I was so small when I was born, and I almost died. Mommy took me abroad to find a doctor to treat me, so I came back to life. I was weak and sickly, and Mommy got hurt and couldn't breastfeed. Therefore, she customized this special formula for me, which is nutritious and will make me grow taller. I won't have to take it for another year."
"But I forgot to change the thermos when I walked out the door today. The milk is cold and undrinkable, and I'll get diarrhea if I drink it. It's a pity to dump it because these two scoops of powdered milk are worth 15 dollars."
The milk powder was too expensive!
Elijah, distressed and saddened, muttered again, "15 dollars is enough to feed our family for a day."
Sebastian was shocked at Elijah's words. His mommy was injured. Elijah was sick and almost died. His family had only 15 dollars a day to live on. Sebastian's heart ached, feeling like it was being hammered over and over.
Sebastian took a deep breath and put aside all kinds of doubts.
Could it be that the woman didn't abandon Waylon on purpose, but because she was unable to take care of the two children? Thinking about it, Sebastian was in a better mood.
He lowered his voice and asked, "Where's your mom? How could she let you come here alone?"
Speaking of this, Sebastian was incredibly angry. How could that woman bring such a young child here and let him walk around alone?
It was dangerous here!
Someone was going to create a disturbance at any moment!
"My mommy had something to do. She wasn't home. I came here with my two godmothers. They like hunks and watch the fight inside."
Sebastian and Christian were speechless.
When Elijah saw the water boiled in the thermostat kettle, he rushed to bring out the spare formula, looked at Sebastian, and asked, "Where's the kitchen?"
Christian came over and said, "Give it to me. I will do this."
"Thank you!" Elijah smiled with his eyes narrowed and handed the bottle to Christian.
Elijah looked so cute, making Sebastian's heart melt.
Sebastian smiled and gently rubbed Elijah's hair. He plucked one of Elijah's hairs and put it in his bag secretly.
Soon, Christian came out from washing the bottle.
Sebastian took it and said, "Let me do it."
"Thanks!" Elijah handed over the formula and spoke with a smile, "The water temperature is 50 degrees. I'm so smart to remember what Mommy said, that I must take my own rations with me
when I go out. I have to worry about my own business."
Sebastian looked at Elijah, heartbroken, put the formula in a bottle, poured hot water in, and screwed the cap on before handing it to him.
"Thanks!" Elijah took it with a smile and took a sip. It was still a little hot, but he looked content.
Elijah sat down on the couch, looked at Sebastian, and added, "Can I sleep here for a while? It's so quiet here." He got sleepy when he was full.
Sebastian's voice was soft, "Yeah, you go to sleep!"
Elijah happily kicked off his shoes and fell asleep on the couch, drinking milk out of the bottle.
Elijah's cute look made Sebastian's heart melt.
In a few minutes, Elijah finished half a bottle of milk with a satisfied smile on his lips.
A smile curled the corners of Sebastian's mouth.
Christian looked at Sebastian, who seldom smiled like this. Although Samuel loved Sebastian, as the heir, he had been trained like a robot since childhood and had few feelings of his own.
The emergence of Waylon elevated Sebastian's humdrum life. All these years, his happiness only came from Waylon. Now that Sebastian had another son, would his life be better in the future?
As a good friend, Christian hoped Sebastian could be happy all the time.
"Sebastian, what should I do now?" Christian asked.
Sebastian whispered, "There's no rush. Elijah won't be leaving for a while. You reach out to Dr. Weston and we'll be there later."
"Yes!" Christian knew what Sebastian wanted to do.
But he was puzzled. In fact, they never got to the bottom of whether Waylon was Sebastian's own son. Christian watched Sebastian bring Waylon up from a small baby to a five-year-old child, and he saw that Sebastian was completely happy.
Christian left for a while. Sebastian wheeled himself closer to Elijah. A smile touched his lips as he looked at Elijah's adorable look.
Sebastian thought, "Now that Dad's around, Dad will make you formula. Don't worry."
Sebastian fell into a deep thought again. That night six years ago, Madison set him up. He was drugged. When he realized something was wrong, he fled to a hotel room. When that woman broke in, she looked like she was passing out. He shook his head slightly. The drug was so strong that he could hardly think of anything except the mess all over the floor and the speck of blood on the sheet. Besides, two hairs were left when they tore each other's clothes off.
At least people got a buck or two when they got fu*ked. But she left him with only two hairs.
The more Sebastian thought about it, the angrier he got.
Sebastian thought about it for a long time and realized that everything just didn't add up. If that woman knew the person she had slept with was Sebastian, she should have come to him since she was having such a hard time. At first, he suspected that she had ulterior motives, but now it seemed that he was overthinking it. In fact, she didn't want anything to do with him.
After a while, Christian came back, looked at Sebastian, and said, "I have everything settled, and Emmett is almost finished."
"Good!" Sebastian nodded blandly and his eyes fell back on Elijah.
Elijah was quiet during the sleep, and Sebastian only heard each other's breath sounds. After a long time, the phone watch on Elijah's wrist suddenly rang.
Elijah was instantly awakened and said drowsily, "Ah... who is it? Who's disturbing my sleep?"
