Chapter 2410
Duncan’s warm voice rang.
Sonny turned his head. When he saw Duncan, he asked concernedly, “Why did you come out alone,
Dunc? I’ll look for someone to push your wheelchair.”
Duncan had a personal bodyguard, but he had assigned the bodyguard to help with the preparations
as things were hectic in the house. He did not need to be looked after anyway.
Although he could not walk normally, he could manage to stand and walk several steps.
“You don’t have to do that. I can take care of myself.”
Sonny immediately said, “I’ll take care of you then. Mom told me to watch Aunt Ser and stop her from
sleeping. I saw Aunt Ser dozing off and took some chili flakes out. Aunt Ser did not dare to fall asleep
again after that.”
He looked like he was asking for a compliment because he had accomplished the task assigned by his
mother.
Duncan pulled Sonny over and lifted him. He praised, “Smart boy. Where did you get the chili flakes?
How did you know it could wake someone up?”
“I saw it in the kitchen and ate some of it. It was so spicy that I didn’t feel sleepy anymore, so I gave
Aunt Ser some. She kept dozing off. Mom also woke Aunt Ser up in the morning. Like me, Aunt Ser
didn’t want to wake up.”
Duncan laughed. “So you know you’ve been sleeping in every morning. You’ll have to return to school
after the wedding.
“You can’t always sleep in, Sonny. It’s not easy for your mom. She has to be up early to prepare
breakfast and feed you before taking you to school so you don’t go hungry. After that, she has to check
on the diner and work at the restaurant. You have to be considerate of her, okay?”
Sonny nodded. “I know, Dunc. I’ll change. It’s just so hard to wake up in the morning because I’m so
sleepy.”
“How do you wake up early on days you don’t have to go to school then?”
Sonny was rendered speechless.
Duncan tapped his forehead affectionately. “You’re just lazy. Haven’t you seen how hard Laurence
studies? He has to learn what is taught in school, besides medicine and martial arts. He has it much
harder than you. You only go to the gym on weekends now.”
Sonny was not as bright as Laurence when it came to martial arts. Although he had been learning it for
several months, his basics were not solid. Laurence could win him easily if they were to battle each
other.
Sonny remained silent at the mention of Laurence.
Although they were still young, they often called or FaceTime each other. Their friendship had
deepened significantly over the summer break.
“Why does Laurence have to learn so much, Dunc? He doesn’t even complain about it.”novelbin
“Well… You’ll find out when you get older. I can’t tell you right now. But, Sonny, you’re better than
Laurence in a few other aspects. If you study properly, you’ll be just as good as him.”
Sonny nodded. “I’ll study hard and be a great person like Uncle Zak. That way, I can protect Mom and
Aunt Ser.”
Duncan complimented him, “What a nice kid.”
Sonny beamed at the compliment. Then, he suddenly asked, “When will you become my dad, Dunc? I
heard that you’ll be my new dad.”
Duncan did not answer the question. Instead, he asked, “Do you want me to be your dad?”
Sonny did mention previously that he already had a father. He was not greedy and did not need two
fathers. Duncan could be someone else’s dad.
After considering it, Sonny said, “I already have a dad, but having two dads seems nice too. You treat
me better than my dad does. Now I want you to be my dad too.”
Clearly, he remembered what he said about not wanting two dads.
Duncan smiled. “I’ll work harder and try to be your dad as soon as possible.”
Sonny nodded. “Good luck, Dunc.”
Duncan gave him a peck on the cheek and hugged him. He said firmly, “Regardless of whether I can
officially be your dad, my love for you will never change.”
It would be best if Liberty were willing to marry him, but they could remain just as they were if she did
not agree. Either way, he would treat Sonny like his own son.
