Upon mentioning this, Emma Smith recalled and said, "Mr. Edwards called today and said that tomorrow morning, Dylan King will come to pick up Tommy to celebrate his birthday at their house."
"Michael Edwards?" Robert Thomson was a little surprised. Emma nodded, "Yes, I agreed. After all, he is Tommy's biological father, and Mr. Edwards is Tommy's grandfather. He is seriously ill now, and he does need children to bring him joy. It's great to have Tommy there to make him happy."
"It's good that you agreed." When it came to this, Robert didn't want to get too involved. Perhaps this was the fate of all stepfathers - since they were stepfathers, they couldn't control the child as they wished, lest they were seen as annoying or abusive.
He got along well with Tommy, but he could hardly manage his own affairs, let alone care so much about Tommy's.
Besides, it was only natural for a child's father to see his child, right? He didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
