Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 128

Jay was even more sure that Robbie was lying.

"Baby Robbie, good children don't lie," he said.

Robbie blinked innocently. He did not argue for himself, because he indeed had done something wrong.

He only wanted to teach Jenson martial arts, but he accidentally kicked the ball onto the antique shelf which had caused it to collapse. Then, a chain reaction happened and one shelf fell onto another, which resulted in the current scene.

Anything that was breakable on those shelves was in pieces.

Robbie had once accidentally broken a vase back in his previous kindergarten. Mommy had to perform cleaning duties for three months to settle the issue. Now that Robbie had broken so many expensive antiques, what should Mommy do if Daddy asked her t o pay up? Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Robbie did not know what to do.

"Baby Robbie, your punishment is to clean up the room," Jay said angrily.

Robbie did not hesitate. He found the broom and dustpan and started to sweep up the broken pieces.

Jenson's eyes were transfixed on the Elephant's Eye i

n his fortress. It was a window built in the shape of an elephant, and in the middle of the window was an eye. Right now, the Elephant's Eye was blinking.

Jenson buried his head into Jay's lap in sheer terror.

Jay dismissed the servants, then brought Jenson downstairs. Only Robbie was left in the fortress.

When Josephine knew that her brother had punished Robbie, she stood up indignantly. "He's only a child, Brother! Now that the two of you have finally met each other, why did you accuse him of wrongdoing and punish him? He'll be traumatized!"

Jay indeed felt sorry for Baby Robbie, and the punishment for Baby Robbie felt more like a punishment for himself. He sat on the couch and occasionally found himself looking up the stairs.

Josephine noticed the anxiety in her brother's eyes." Are you punishing yourself or punishing the child?" She said with a sigh.

Jay took a bottle of brandy from the cabinet and poured a glass, in an attempt to calm his anxiety. Josephine snatched the bottle away and roared," That's enough, Brother. Ever since Sister Angeline died, you have been allergic to alcohol. Have you forgotten?"

A hint of pain flashed in Jay's hollow gaze. He abruptly snatched the bottle back from Josephine and poured it on top of his head.

Josephine felt incredibly sorry for her brother. "Don't b e like that, Brother! If you can't bear to punish Baby Robbie, then you should go and help him!"

Jay glanced at Jenson who was curled up on the couch and trembling, and his gaze became determined again. "If I don't punish him, then he won't remember the lesson. What if he bullies Jenson again?"

"It's normal for boys to be fighting with each other..."

When Jenson heard his father mentioning his name, h e immediately sat up as though he was struck by a lightning bolt. He pointed toward his private fortress." Robbie! Come out! Come out, quick!"

Jenson's voice was soft, but it was jarring between Josephine and Jay's sudden silence. Jay stared at Jenson and his expression changed drastically. Then, he ran up the stairs like a maniac.

"Baby Robbie!"

Meanwhile, in the fortress, Baby Robbie's little body looked frail but defiant. Tears were flowing out of his eyes even though he tried to hold them back. When he went next to the window, he noticed the Elephant's Eye suddenly moving. Then, he heard a whisper." Little boy, your father has abandoned you.... Poor thing!
