Chapter 1163 Resolving The Misunderstanding
Dylan, looking puzzled, saw Cassandra and immediately shook his head.
Sensing the tension in the air, Cassandra subtly signaled to Cassina, who understood that her son had something to say. But with Cassandra’s authoritative presence, Cassina felt hesitant to act
“Dylan, don’t be scared,” Cassina said gently, stepping forward. “With your aunt and granny here, no one will hurt you.” She tried to comfort her son, though it was clear he was growing anxious, unsure how to explain the situation.
“Mommy,” Dylan stammered, “Elliot didn’t hit me.. he didn’t..” His small voice carried a hint of desperation as he tried to make them understand
Cassandra, thinking the child was simply scared and confused, said calmly, “Mom, I think Dylan’s just a bit shaken. We should let him rest for now.”
Queenie, agreeing with Cassandra, nodded. “Yes, let’s get Dylan to rest Cassina moved to take her son away, but before they could leave. Cecilia stepped forward, blocking their path.
“I think we should get the facts straight before anyone rests, don’t you think?” Cecilia said firmly. She couldn’t allow her son to be wrongfully blamed without clarification
Cassina hesitated but remained still. Cecilia knelt down to Dylan’s level and asked softly, “Dylan, you just said Elliot didn’t hit you. So who did this to you?”
Dylan scratched his head, trying to recall. He couldn’t remember Felix’s name, so he simply said, “It wasn’t Elliot, it was a very naughty boy.”
Cecilia’s calm demeanor made it easier for Dylan to speak, and he managed to complete his sentence without hesitation
Queenie, initially fuming, was taken aback by this revelation.
“A naughty boy? Who?” she asked, confusion creeping into her voice.
At that moment, Elliot, stepping forward, answered flatly, “It was Felix.”
The moment Felix’s name was mentioned, Cassandra’s expression shifted, though she quickly masked it.
Dylan nodded in agreement. “Granny, it was Felix. If it weren’t for Elliot saving me, he might have beaten me up even worse.”
Queenie’s anger faltered, realizing she had wrongfully accused Elliot. She wasn’t sure if she should be mad at herself for jumping to conclusions or at the child who caused the trouble. She turned to Elena, about to ask who Felix was, but before she could, Elena interjected impatiently
“I was wondering who dared to lay a hand on Dylan. So it was that little rascal Felix,” Elena said, her voice tinged with irritation. “Felix is the grandson of Nicholas‘ eldest uncle, and he’s been spoiled from a young age. Ever since Elliot returned to the Rainsworth family, Felix has been nothing but trouble for him.”
Elena didn’t hesitate to speak ill of Felix, clearly fed up with the boy’s antics..Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Hearing this, Queenie made a swift decision. “Mdm. Elena, lead the way. I’m going to have a word with that brat.”
“Gladly,” Elena replied, a wide smile spreading across her face. She was more than happy to see someone finally putting Felix in his place.
But before Queenie could proceed, Cecilia intervened, “Mdm. Queenie, since this was a misunderstanding, shouldn’t you apologize to my son?”
Queenie, visibly taken aback, turned to look at Elliot, who was standing there with the same proud, unbothered expression as his mother. Though clearly reluctant, Queenie sighed and offered an apology.
“Kid, I wronged you. I’m sorry. And thank you for saving my grandson. If there’s anything you want, just let my assistant know, and I’ll make sure you get it.”
Elliot barely glanced at her, his face a mix of annoyance and disdain. I don’t need anything from you. I have everything I
Queenie, momentarily stunned by his bluntness, bit back her frustration. She wasn’t going to argue with Cecilia’s son. especially since it was a child she had wronged. Elena, watching the exchange, couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
That’s my grandion. Why would he need anything from the Jamieson family!
“Mdm. Queenie,” Elena said, stepping in, “let’s not dwell on this. It’s best not to argue with a child. Let’s go find Felix instead.”
“Fine,” Queenie agreed, though clearly still irritated. Before leaving, she instructed Cassina to take Dylan to the doctor and update her on any developments. Then, with a determined step, she followed Elena in search of Felix.
