Love Of Tomorrow Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Coaxing the Children

Without waiting for Hanson to answer, Jack asked once again, “Do you really not remember Mommy?”

Hanson frowned at the question, as he was under the impression that he had not seen Vania before.

The four of them became silent, as they all fell into contemplation simultaneously. The first to break the silence was Jack, who said, “Then, have you never doubted about what happened back then—”

However, he was interrupted by James clearing his throat before he could finish his sentence. Jack then immediately kept quiet and spoke no further.

Hearing what Jack said, Hanson did have his suspicions about what happened five years ago. He also suspected that the four were privy to certain information that he was unaware of. Nevertheless, looking at James’ expression, he knew that the other three wouldn’t say anything further even if he pushed the matter here. Looks like I’ll have to find an opportunity somewhere down the line.

Then, Jacob took the paper from James and gave it to Hanson. “You should sign this. Don’t try to get out of this.”

With the sudden change in the conversation, Hanson was brought back from his deep thoughts. Can I really not get out of this? However, his eyes brightened as he thought of a plan. He extended his right hand to the kids and said, “My hand is injured. You all should know that the doctor had told me not to move so much. So, I’m afraid I can’t sign it.”

Jake proudly pointed at Hanson’s left hand. “You can use your left hand to sign, then.” He thought since they could write with both hands, Hanson, as an adult, would be able to do so as well.

Yet, Hanson wore a distressed expression and explained, “I can’t write with my left hand.” At this point, he would never want to admit that he was ambidextrous.

James took a step forward while he waved his hand. “No worries. We can wait for you to finish practicing with your left hand.”

At this moment, Jude came over with a sheet of paper that was clearly intended for Hanson to practice writing with his left hand.

Hanson placed his hand across his face, as he was losing out against the children. “Must I sign this?”

The four of them nodded solemnly. “Right. You must sign this.”

“How about we continue this talk after your mommy comes back? You should respect your mommy’s wishes, after all.” Hanson tried to reason with the four of them. Since they wouldn’t let him off the hook with his excuse, he had no other choice but to play the ’emotional’ card. “If your mommy wants this, wouldn’t you all want her to be happy? It wouldn’t be good if you guys break this off without her consent, right?”

Noticing the change in their expression, it was clear to Hanson that they were contemplating the matter. He was pleased with his decision to go down the emotional route as the children seemed amenable to coaxing.

Contrary to Hanson’s expectation, Jack replied, “I think Mommy wouldn’t blame us for this.”

James nodded. “Mommy has never gotten angry at us.”

Jacob and Jude also agreed with their brothers’ statements.

Hanson became speechless at the children’s response. His mouth twitched slightly while he continued in his effort to persuade them. “However, can you all bear to make your mommy unhappy?”

As he said that, the four of them looked at him with complicated expressions. They thought to themselves that maybe it would be better to ask what their mommy thought of this man even though they were under the impression that she would not like him. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

In the end, Jack spoke up. “Alright. We’ll listen to you, for now. We’ll wait for Mommy to come back before coming to a decision.”

Hanson nodded and thought, You should have done so from the start.

“Don’t be so pleased just yet. You better start practicing how to write with your left hand since you’ll be signing this paper anyway,” Jack said smugly.
