"Okay, you will always be my child, and I will always love you. You are a boy, you need to learn to be strong! You need to protect Ivy, don't you?"
Aria Grant stroked Dylan Flack's cheeks. The child had really grown up; just a short while ago his face was still chubby and bouncy, how had it become like this now? He had obviously lost a lot of weight.
After Dylan went upstairs, Ivy Grant sat crouching at the corner of the wall, sobbing continuously. She heard what Aria Grant said; although her tone was slightly gentler, Ivy understood that there was no room for negotiation, no one could change Aria Grant's decision.
Because Aria Grant was downstairs, Dylan knew that Ivy was controlling herself not to make too much noise.
His whole body trembling, Dylan crouched down, remembering the words Aria had said; he must protect Ivy!
