Chapter 251 I Know Everything
The moment the door opened, Shirley was overjoyed.
The one standing outside the door was Shirley’s precious son, Bennett!
“Mommy, long time no see. I miss you so much. Give me a hug!”
Bennett’s little face was fair, clean, handsome, and charming, like a president who lived a comfortable
life. He
opened his arms to Shirley calmly as if he was not the one who had been kidnapped.
The surprise in Shirley’s heart was quickly replaced by anger. Shirley crossed her arms and began to
scold
Bennett with a long face, “Did you have a good time? You finally came to find me.
“I have only left Sunflower Island for a short time. Look what you have done during this time! Don’t you
know
that we will be worried? Do you know how angry I am?”
“Hey. Mommy, don’t be angry. I am back now…”
Bennett shrugged his shoulders indifferently. Then, he directly threw himself into Shirley’s arms. Bennett
blinked his sparkling beady eyes and put on the most innocent and cute look. “Mommy, you are very
clear
about my strength. What’s there to worry about? That’s a groundless worry… But I also know that you
love me
very much. Mommy, thank you. You are the best in the world. I love you the most!”
Bennett had known clearly about Shirley’s character and temper since he was a child. He knew that
Shirley
was soft-hearted. Thus, every time Bennett made a big mistake, he would say some sweet words to
soften
Shirley’s heart. With his harmless and cute face, Bennett could get safe and sound every time!
But this time, it was not that easy to fool Shirley.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShirley tried her best to resist the urge to hug Bennett. She said with a stern expression, “Bennett, don’t
play
any tricks this time. I won’t be fooled by you anymore. Tell me honestly, what are you doing?”
Seeing that acting cute was useless, Bennett stopped pretending. He put his hands in his pockets and
returned to his usual cool and arrogant appearance. He explained, “I was worried about you. I was afraid
that
you would be bullied when you returned to Seatle City, so I came to protect you!”
Shirley suddenly didn’t know what to say.
Shirley put her hand on her forehead and felt complicated in her heart.
Was this something a four-year-old child could say?
Most of the time, Shirley felt that Bennett was an enhanced version of her and Braden. Although Bennett
was only four, he was a hard child to handle. Bennett had outwitted Shirley many times before!
“You’re just a little kid. Protecting yourself is the greatest protection for me. You said that you left
Sunflower Island without any adults looking after you. If you encountered any bad guys, who would save
you? You couldn’t resist them with your thin arms and legs!”
“That’s impossible.”
Bennett said confidently, “I can use my wits, while those bad guys only have brute force. Those bad guys
who wanted to hurt me were all sent to the police by me. Mommy, this is not the first time you know
about this.”
Shirley was speechless.
She even thought that Bennett’s words made perfect sense.
“So, Mommy, you really don’t need to be worried. I came to protect you, and you also shouldn’t be angry.
Instead, you should reward me!”
Bennett was neither anxious nor impatient as he suggested Shirley with clear logic.
“Reward you?”
Shirley was so angry that she chuckled.
Shirley had to admit that Bennett was really very smart. Bennett’s logic was very clear. It was as if Shirley
were to be angry again, she would be the one who was unreasonable.
Then, Shirley smiled kindly at Bennett and said gently, “Ben, you want a reward, right? OK. Wait here. I
will go
get it for you!”
Bennett immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile. “OK. Mommy, you are really
reasonable and kind.”
After a while, Shirley took out a picture. She raised her eyebrows and said to Bennett, “Bennett, do you
see this picture? You will be grounded in here!”
Bennett was very silent because he knew that Shirley was really angry this time. He hugged Shirley’s leg
and raised his head, looking pitifully at Shirley. He said, “Mommy, you should punish me. I won’t resist.
But anger hurts the body. I don’t want to see you hurt yourself because of my mistake.”
“You really have a glib tongue, don’t you?”
Shirley took a deep breath and asked sternly, “Do you know what mistake you have made?”
Shirley’s stern voice sounded a little scary in Bennett’s ear this time.
However, Bennett was very strong. Tears had already appeared in his eyes, but he didn’t cry out. He
raised his chin and said stubbornly, “I didn’t do anything wrong. I was protecting my Mommy! I was not
wrong!”
“You!”
Shirley was so angry that she glared at Bennett.
Bennett was getting bolder and bolder. And he was also a naughty boy. Shirley really felt that it was hard
to
discipline him now.
Shirley thought if she didn’t teach Bennett a lesson now, Bennett might cause big trouble in the future!
After thinking so, Shirley said to Bennett sternly, “If you don’t admit your mistake, then you will be
grounded and are not allowed to get out until you admit it!”
“Boo-hoo!”
After all, Bennett was still a child. He finally couldn’t hold it in any longer and cried. But Bennett was still
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmvery stubborn. “Mommy, it’s fine if you want to ground me. But I will never admit that I was wrong. I just
wanted to protect you. I didn’t want the bad daddy to bully you!”
Shirley was stunned. “What… What bad daddy?”
Bennett wiped away his tears and stared pitifully at Shirley. “Mommy, you don’t have to hide it from me.
Ally and I know everything. Our biological father is not Ewan but Braden!”
Shirley panicked.
Shirley remembered that she had never mentioned Braden in front of Bennett and Alisha!
“I put a recording device in the study room. I could hear the content of your meeting with Ewan all the
time…
“I know that Braden is my and Ally’s biological father. I also know that he didn’t treat you well back then.
He bullied you and broke your heart….
“You have worked so hard all these years. You have to take care of us and deal with the Korita Group’s
business affairs. You have to stay up all night in the laboratory to do experiments. You did all this
because you wanted to defeat Braden as soon as possible and let us return to our homeland. You want
to live a peaceful life with Ally and me, right?”
Bennett sobbed and told Shirley everything he knew in detail.
“…”
Shirley didn’t know that Bennett and Alisha had already endured so much. They were only four years old.
Shirley didn’t want her children to live in hatred, so she explained to Bennett, “The reason why I worked
so hard was actually not because of that person. I just want to create a better life for you. I also want to
revitalize the Wilson family and take back the honor that belongs to the Wilson family….
“Back then, our Wilson family was very powerful and glorious. Your grandparents, especially your great-
grandfather, were all great figures. So Ben, you also have to…”
“I know. I also have to help!”
Bennett said proudly, “Mommy worked so hard. I want to help you and share your burden. So I went to
the bad guy’s company and got the important document that you and Ewan mentioned before…”
“Important document?”
Shirley was stunned. After all, she was trying to teach Bennett a lesson. But the topic now had already
changed!
