Love at First Novel

At 9:00 pm in Wiltspoon.

After the video call with Liberty, Serenity asked Sonny, "Have you packed everything? Don't forget to bring the gift for Titus."

Sonny eagerly replied, "Everything is packed. I just took some toys and the gift for Titus."

"You always remember Titus's gift, even if you forget everything else," Serenity said with a smile. "If you forget anything, how will you give Titus his gift?"

Sonny smiled sheepishly.

Serenity picked him up and placed him on the bed. "Your uncle is on a business trip, so you'll sleep with me tonight. Tomorrow morning, after breakfast, we'll go to your Uncle Ben's house. I asked you to go with those old grandfathers, but you didn't want to. They adore you and would take good care of you."

Sonny lay down on the bed, resting his head on Serenity's thighs. He said, "They like me, but I don't know them well. You and Mom often tell me not to go with strangers except for you. I'm afraid I might get sold."C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Serenity laughed. "Who would dare to sell you? They must have a death wish."

She remembered when Liberty and Hank had just divorced, and the Brown family took Sonny away, trying to hide him so Liberty couldn't see him.

This tactic was common among divorced couples fighting for custody, usually the fathers. They would hide the child at a relative's house, preventing the mother from seeing them. Even if custody was awarded to the mother, she might never see her child again. This was a form of torture and suffering for many women.

Some men who took their children genuinely loved them, but others didn't. They simply didn't want the mother to have a good life or the children. It was revenge, a way to torment the women. After taking the children, they often didn't care for them well, sending them to their parents. The grandparents would badmouth the mother, teaching the children to hate her. Even if the mother and child reunited, the child often harbored resentment.

People say a couple will have a hundred days of gratitude after one day together. If love ends, can't they part amicably? Why make an ugly scene and cause endless harm to the children?

When the Brown family took Sonny, Serenity was devastated.

Sonny had been cared for by Liberty and Serenity since birth. Hank, the father, rarely played with him. Sonny's grandparents adored him more than their own grandson, despite Sonny being their only grandson.

If Sonny didn't come back, he wouldn't receive proper care in then com Brown family. He'd likely be bullied by Lucas. His grandparents wouldn't help, and with no parental protection, his cousins would bully him.

Fortunately, Serenity had married Zachary. Zachary and his brothers found Sonny at Chelsea's house and rescued him! Sonny had been bullied; when Zachary arrived, Chelsea's eldest son, Lucas, was still hitting him. Zachary, already angry seeing Sonny bullied, harshly reprimanded Lucas. Lucas, then in junior high, feared Zachary ever since.

"Sonny, do you remember when Lucas and his friends bulked you, and e

your uncle rescued you?" Serenity asked.
