"Mommy, these are all excuses. Don't believe his nonsense!"
Liliana was very afraid that Eliza would really agree to send them away. She painfully persuaded Eliza.
"He is your daddy. Don't talk like this."
"He's not our daddy, he's our opponent!" Demarion also chimed in, "He's afraid we will take away your attention, so he just wants to send us abroad. This man is really cruel!"
Liliana blinked, leaned into Eliza's arms, and pretended to cry. "Woo, mommy, I haven't stayed by your side since I was a kid, so I don't want to be separated from you."
Demarion, "Me and Braint, too, our classmates ridiculed us as children without a mother."
When the children cried, Eliza's heart softened again.
"Beau, how about..."
"No." Beau turned down firmly. "It's just a temporary separation, and you'll get to stay with them for a long time in the future. Besides, do you want what happened to Demarion to happen again?"
