Chapter 210 This Is What Home Feels Like
After all, protecting their mommy from being hurt by him was their duty at all times.
Much to Hanson’s surprise, he did not expect to enter his probation period so soon and had thought that these children were going to shut him outside the door instead. He knew right then that this was the perfect opportunity to get on their good side, so he pointed to the things behind him and lured them. “These are the figurine models I brought you, and there’s even a telescope. Why don’t you open it to see if you like it?”
He then looked at Jacob with a smile and said again, “Of course, I also brought you desserts. All of them are the latest goods from a chef and I promise that you’ll like them.”
Jacob’s expression instantly brightened up, but before it turned into joy, he immediately suppressed it again and replied quietly, “I don’t like it.”
Nevermind. Hanson did not expose his lie and looked at Jude instead. This is the boy Vania adopted, right? he thought. He had not gotten to know the entire truth yet, but he did not want Jude to feel left out just because he was an adopted child.
Hence, he said to Jude kindly, “I brought you many books. They’re all rare collector’s editions and they aren’t available on the market anymore. Please study well too, got it?”
Jude did not expect Hanson to know his hobbies this well. Although he did not speak, the glow in his eyes had betrayed his feelings of joy. What he wanted most at the moment was to enroll in school and study. Even though his brothers had given him a lot, he still wanted to learn more and become as excellent as them.
Meanwhile, Hanson had started to take a liking to Jude after seeing his innocent reaction. He was not someone who easily reserved a soft spot for children, but these four babies were a definite exception. Take Jude, who was sitting in front of him, as an example. He had merely given him a few books yet Jude was already this happy. The sight filled Hanson with an inexpressible feeling that he could not describe.
Jack said arrogantly, “You can’t buy me over with these things.”
Jacob only glanced at the gifts and did not take another look at them as well. “The money we made today is more than enough to buy these toys.”
Hanson laughed at their proud expressions and replied, “These things can’t be bought with money.”
Jack raised his eyebrows. “Then, are you saying that you’re impressive?”
Hanson nodded noncommittally. “Of course.”
Other than him, there was probably no one else who could get their hands on these things. The four babies let out a chortle at the same time with disdain clearly shown in their expressions.
How can he call himself impressive when he can’t even guard his own firewall? At that thought, Jack responded sarcastically, “We’ll surpass you one day.”
Not only did they not reserve any respect toward his power, they even wanted to surpass him. If it was not for their young age, they would definitely be much better than him.
Even so, Hanson was not mad in the slightest at their arrogance; instead, he admired the children’s bravery. Their confidence in particular reminded him of himself when he was younger.
“Then, I will wait with bated breath.” He sincerely looked forward to the day of their success.
The four babies still lifted their heads arrogantly, not wanting to make any promises with him.
Hanson could only chuckle at that. Of course, he was not going to pick a fight with a few children. He subconsciously surveyed the decorations in the living room; he had only been here twice, but his mindset was completely different back then. Now, he admitted that the decorations felt extremely heartwarming and this was what a home should feel like.
Seeing the man’s gaze wander around, Jack warned him, “Stay in line and stop looking around.”
Hanson laughed at his warning. “I guess this isn’t included in the fees either.”
