Chapter 384 Not Max's Fault Somewhere in the park.
Leon drove through the area, feeling inexplicably certain that Max would be there.
So he drove purposefully to this spot.
And just as Leon had thought, Max was indeed there, huddled in a corner, quietly crying.
Max didn't want to disturb the passersby, so he didn't dare to cry out loud, but he looked very aggrieved.
Leon had chere to find Max because he remembered something Max had said before.
Max had mentioned that he loved the park and that coming here when he was feeling down always made him happy.
Leon had remembered this and decided to try his luck.
His thoughts returned to the present.
Leon was now standing in front of Max, who was wearing a thin shirt and shivering in the corner, tears streaming down his face.
Leon crouched down and looked at Max.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Max saw Leon, he felt particularly aggrieved and wanted to call him "Dad." But then he remembered that Leon wasn't his dad, and calling him that might upset Leon, so he changed his greeting.
"Leon, why are you here?" "Everyone's worried about you, so we're all out looking for you." Leon spoke honestly and took off his jacket, draping it over Max's shoulders.
Max felt a surge of happiness at Leon's gesture, but then he thought about Isadora's attitude towards him, and his face fell again, his mouth quivering and his eyes reddening.
"I'm sorry, I didn't want this to happen, but I'm really sad." "Mom said she loved me, so why did she say those things?" "Leon, if you were really my dad, would Mom still be angry?" Even at this moment, Max was still thinking about Isadora.
Initially, when Max lashed out at Flora, Leon was very angry, but now, seeing how considerate Max was, Leon's anger dissipated instantly.
After all, Max was so young; how could he understand the difference between right and wrong? If Isadora had properly guided Max, things wouldn't be like this now.
Leon gently wiped Max's tears and said, "No mother doesn't love her child, Max. Your mom might not know how to express her feelings, but she definitely loves you." Leon spoke with such certainty because he had noticed the worry in Isadora's eyes.
Perhaps when Isadora found out Tyrell wasn't Leon, she had thought about making a life with Tyrell.
But with Tyrell in prison, Isadora and Max had no security, and for Max's future, she had to tell such a huge lie. Max was Isadora's child, born after ten months of pregnancy.
When Isadora was pregnant with Max, she must have been full of anticipation, eagerly waiting for Max to be born.
So a mother must love her child. If Isadora had only raised Max for her own sake, she wouldn't have raised him so well.
Maybe today's lie being exposed caused Isadora to lose control and say things she didn't mean.
Hearing Leon's words, Max immediately stopped crying and looked at him with a happy expression.
"Leon, is that really true? Mom doesn't actually hate me, right?" "Right, she doesn't hate you." Leon raised his hand and ruffled Max's hair.
Then, as if remembering something, Leon asked Max another question.
"Max, do you still wish I were your dad?" Max heard Leon's question and looked at him seriously before shaking his head.
"I have my own dad. At first, I wanted you to be my dad because I thought you were my real dad. Now I know my dad is still in prison, and I'll wait for him to cout so we can be together as a family." Leon was quite satisfied with this answer and reached out to hold Max's hand.
"Are you ready to go back withnow?" Leon asked.
Since having the kids and Tiffany, Leon's personality had softened and he was no longer as cold and aloof as before. He could empathize with speople, which was why his attitude towards Max had softened.
Max followed Leon into the car and left the park.
Not long after, Max was back at the Cooper Mansion.
The kids were still in the living room waiting for him, each holding something in their hands.
Leon had already messaged Tiffany before coming back. So they were waiting there. When the kids saw Max, they immediately ran over and quickly surrounded him. Leon quietly walked away and stood next to Tiffany. They watched the kids and Max, and smiles slowly appeared on their faces.
Max was a bit scared. Because he had put itching powder on Flora, he was afraid that he would be punished for what he had done.

I shouldn't have done that. If you want to punish me, go ahead and hit me." Max said this and obediently stretched out his hand, closing his eyes.
Just when Max thought he was going to get hit, no one did. Instead, he felt something in his palm.
Max slowly opened his eyes and saw a toy in his hand.
"What's this?" Max asked, puzzled.
Flora cover and smiled sweetly.
"Max, this is my favorite toy, and now I'm giving it to you as a gift. Mom toldthat you're the youngest herenso I'm your big sister. As your big sister, I have to take care of you so that I won't blyou. But remember, you can't do bad things anymore. Mom said that kids who do bad things will be taken away by demons." Flora spoke like a little adult, seriously lecturing Max.
Max listened and nodded heavily, sincerely apologizing to Flora again.
"I'm sorry, Flora. It was my fault. I even thought Leon was my dad and wanted to hurt you. Xm a bad kid. ed Thank you for still wanting to play with me." "You're lucky Flora doesn't hold grudges, or Barry and I wouldn't let you off." Sam's personality was still a bit proud. Even though he no longer blamed Max, he couldn't help but tease him.
After he finished speaking, he stuffed a small gconsole into Max's arms.
"But since you sincerely apologized, this gconsole is your reward. It's my favorite PS Console, so don't refuse it." "Thank you, Sam." Max obediently thanked him, holding the PS console like a treasure.
Barry didn't say much because Flora and Sam had already said everything. He handed Max a small backpack that looked brand new and unique.
