FreeNovelChapter 488 Casper brought Brock to see her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt had been ages since Eliza and her son had seen each other, and Brock clung to her, chatting non-stop.
Eliza hugged him tightly; she missed him so much and felt a mountain of guilt. He needed love and care the most at this age, but she had been so caught up in her own troubles that she couldn't give him the attention he deserved. "Sweetheart, have you been comfortable staying at Grandma Audrey's?" Her voice was gentle, filled with warm concern.
The little guy nodded. "Grandma Audrey is really nice to me, and so are Mr. Casper and Aunt Claire." Mr. Casper? Casper hadn't told Brock he was his father? Did he not want to acknowledge Brock? "Did Mr. Casper... say he's helping to find your dad?" Eliza was eager to know what they had talked about. Brock's big, beautiful eyes turned thoughtful. "Mr. Casper said he's already found my dad, but dad is... busy... Mom, what does my dad look like? Why doesn't he want us? Is it because I'm not good enough?" "No, of course not." She felt the self-blin his voice and hugged him tighter, her heart aching. "Dad left because of sissues between mom and dad. Dad definitely loves you, Brock." "But..." Brock tilted his head, puzzled. "...if dad loves me, he would definitely cto see me. Why hasn't he cto seeeven once?" Eliza was at a loss for words. "Dad is... very busy." "Then he must not love me." Brock looked hurt, propping up his small face, his eyes dimming. After a moment of silence, he looked up at Eliza. "Mom, maybe you could finda new dad." Eliza awkwardly grinned. "A new dad?" "Yeah, or maybe..." Brock suddenly got excited. "...Mom, let Mr. Casper be my dad! I really like him. He picksup from school, takesto school, and even takesout to have fun. I really like him." Eliza was speechless. How should she tell him that Casper was his biological father? "Let me... think about it, okay?" "Yay, yay!" Brock seemed to take her words as a sort of affirmation. "Then mom has to really think about it seriously." "Okay." After Casper asked Dillon to take Brock back to the family mansion, he walked into the hospital room and sat in front of Eliza, looking quite pleased. "What did the little guy talk about? He didn't say anything bad about me, did he?" "You haven't told him that you're his dad?" Eliza wanted to know what Casper was thinking. They had discussed this before; during Brock's twith the Welton family, there had been plenty of opportunities.

"This...?" Casper indeed hadn't made this clear. Actually, be wanted Eliza to tel Brock herself. "Casper, if you don't want to acknowledge Brock, just telldirectly. What's the point?"
From Eliza's perspective, Casper's lack of action in acknowledging Brock for so long indicated his reluctance. When they got married, he didn't want her to have children. Deep down, he probably didn't value the child she bore at all. He could dote on and take care of him, but he wouldn't give him a proper status. The reason for not undergoing a paternity test was probably because he fundamentally didn't want a legally binding document, allowing him to shirk responsibility at any time. Her cherished child might not be so cherished by Casper. She understood. "Casper, I know Brock's
temperament he's gentle, not the brightest, timid, and shy, far from the image of the son you've envisioned. It's normal if you don't like him if you don't, no one is forcing you. But there's really no need to make promises against your will."
