Chapter 1353

A Pitiful Expression

Luke went silent. In truth, running away from home was Davin’s idea, and he merely agreed back then.

Tiffany grew increasingly worried at his silence. Oh my God, it’s a huge thing that he ran away from
home!

“Well? Why did you run away from home? Do you not like Levant Winery? If so, we’ll just move back to
our old place, okay?”

Huh? Move out of Levant Winery? Then, Mommy and Daddy would drift even further apart, and I
would’ve made things worse instead of helping!

“No, Mommy. That’s not it!” he hastily replied.

When Tiffany heard his denial, she frantically asked further, “If that’s not it, why then?”

“It’s because… because—”

“It’s because he wants the two of you to be close to each other and love him as the average parents
do.”

Luke’s head snapped back, and he cast his gaze into the distance, only to see that Davin and Sheila
had come as well.

At the sight of Sheila, Zayden cried out and sprinted toward her at lightning speed as though he had
seen his favorite food.

Leaning down, Sheila scooped him up and kissed him several times. Then, she pinched his cheek,
asking, “I heard from your daddy that you’re eating less so that you can become a superhero, but why



don’t you seem any different to me?”

At that, Zayden hung his head and touched his slightly rounded belly. “That’s not my fault, Mommy.
Maya’s cooking was too delicious, so I couldn’t resist taking… a bite more.” While saying that, he even
held out a finger.

“Are you sure you couldn’t resist taking a bit more?” Sheila drawled.

Zayden deliberately thought about it for a moment before he honestly held out three fingers. “Actually…
I ate three bites more.”

As Sheila looked at her truthful son, a stunning smile bloomed on her face, and she patted her son on
the head once more.

“Are you here to take Zayden home, Aunt Sheila? I don’t want him to leave. I want to play with him!”

“I’m here to pick the two of you up, Joy. Grandma is missing you, so I’m going to send you both over.”

Zayden and Joy looked at each other before they both swung their gazes at Luke. Sheila instantly
understood their meaning. “Do you want to go as well, Luke? If you do, I can bring you along.”

Luke raised his head and stared right at Levant, a question flashing through his mind. I’m now
threatening Daddy. Will it still be effective if I go to another place?

Seeing that her son wasn’t saying anything, Tiffany bent down to his height. “You don’t have to worry
about my relationship with your daddy, Luke. Just spend your childhood happily. That’s what I want to
see most. Don’t worry about the matters between adults anymore, okay?”

Luke lifted his head and glanced at Davin, at which the man threw him a look. At once, his mind
whirred at warp speed. He then put on a pitiful expression.



“I want to have a house filled with laughter and warmth, Mommy. At Imperial Garden, I always see Mr.
Evan and Ms. Nicole chatting and laughing together. I’ve never seen you do so with Daddy. Imperial
Garden feels like a home, while Levant Winery feels cold and chilly. Usually, you’re no different from a
guest who’s living there, behaving like strangers with Daddy. Other children’s mommies and daddies
don’t act that way. Look at Ms. Sheila and Mr. Davin. They’re happy together, with chatter and laughter,
not like the two of you either.”

After saying that, he lowered his head and pouted, making himself look all the more pitiful.

At the side, Davin couldn’t help exclaiming inwardly, Wow, his reaction speed is impressive! That aside,
his acting skills are superb, too! He has the potential of being a celebrity, so his talent should be
nurtured.

Meanwhile, Tiffany was at a loss when she saw his son’s ardent desire for warmth.

Indeed, I live at Levant Winery with Levant, and we’re husband and wife in front of outsiders. But that’s
not the case in reality. He’s courteous with me and takes good care of me, yet he has never had any
romantic attachment toward me.
