His Precious Love

Chapter 336 Waiting For You

Carl asked, “Daddy’s leaving again so soon after coming back?”

“That’s right!” Jasmine didn’t drive as fast as she could on the highway to the airport because her child

was in the car with her. Besides, he was getting restless. If he were older, he would’ve taken the

wheels himself.

Forty minutes later, they arrived at their destination.

When she saw the boarding time for Theodore’s flight was over, she hurriedly gave Gabriel a call. As

the flight attendants were doing a headcount on the plane, she arrived at the airport strip with the

groundskeeper.

A flight attendant went to the first-class cabin and informed Theodore, “A woman with the last name

Sanders is looking for you, Mr. Xavier.”

Knowing that Jasmine had arrived, Theodore immediately exited the plane.

In the distance, he saw her standing in the cold breeze, her coat fluttering in the wind.

When he saw the tall boy on her right, he was dumbfounded. Isn’t he Rayna’s friend’s child?

Carl was similarly dumbstruck the moment he saw Theodore.

“Mommy, he… he…” The boy turned to his mother. “I met this man twice before.”

In response, Jasmine patted him and said, “He’s your father!”

After Theodore strode toward her and stopped, she grinned and pushed Carl toward him. “Since you’re

leaving, and we can’t have dinner tonight, I decided to deliver you your ‘present.”

Theodore was temporarily at a loss for words.

Both son and father gazed at each other quietly.

In the end, Jasmine broke the silence. “Why are you two just staring at each other?”

“Jasmine Sanders!” Theodore’s expression abruptly darkened as he uttered with stifled anger, “How

dare you hide such an important thing from me for so long!”

She barked, “Do you think I wanted to do that? If you want to blame someone, blame your outrageous

mother! I took her money to raise our child, but I didn’t know she changed my letter! You don’t get to

shout at me! Shouldn’t you be thanking me instead for raising your son so well? I wanted to let you

know when I went to Jetroina back then, but you pissed me off—”

Without warning, Theodore pulled Jasmine into his embrace and hugged her tightly. “You d*mn woman!

Thank you for your hard work, and I’m sorry you had to deal with the Sanders family while raising our

son.”

Her eyes were already wet as she hugged his waist. “It’s nothing. I’m just glad you’re back.”

“I should’ve known.” Fury rose in his voice before he sighed resignedly. It should’ve been obvious to

me early on why this child looks so familiar. It’s because he resembles Jasmine. I bet she kept hiding

him from me because she was afraid I would find out the truth.

Jasmine smiled. “It’s not too late for you to know now. Aren’t you going to greet your son? While we

keep hugging each other, he’s just standing in the cold breeze.”

Promptly, Theodore released her and went to Carl.

Carl waved at him courageously and beamed. “Hello, Daddy!”

Upon squatting down to reach the same eye level as the boy, Theodore intentionally put on a stern

expression. “You noticed we looked alike early on, didn’t you? Why didn’t you tell me anything?”

“Mommy said you were in the military, so I thought you would only return during Christmas,” Carl

replied innocently. “Back then, I thought I was the son of one of your brothers.”

“I’m an only child,” informed Theodore resignedly. I think I’ll be remembering the scare I had today for

the rest of my life.

The boy grinned. “Does it matter? It’s not like it’s too late for us to reunite, even though it has happened

so late. You’re still my Daddy!”

“Come here.” The man’s voice was trembling slightly as he opened his arms. “Let me hug you.”

Without delay, Carl pounced into his father’s embrace.

Theodore’s arms were shaking as he hugged his child’s tiny frame. It wasn’t easy for him to control his

emotion. “I’m sorry I couldn’t be by your side during your childhood.”

“Come on, Daddy,” the boy spat with disdain. “Mommy said men shouldn’t be melodramatic. Besides,

I’m only four years old. My childhood has just started, okay?”

“Your mommy taught you well.”

“But of course! She’s the best mommy in the whole world!” Carl praised proudly. “That’s why you need

to appreciate her. Otherwise, I’ll take her and leave.”

“I will.” Patting the boy’s head, Theodore uttered, “I love you two the most.”

It was then the flight attendant suddenly appeared. “It’s time to leave, Mr. Xavier.”

Upon carrying Carl by his arm, Theodore stood up. “I’m not leaving anymore.” Now that I know I have a

four-year-old son, I just want to return home and keep him company instead of going anywhere else.

“You should go,” Jasmine suggested. “I think you should still visit your injured father. Besides, we’ve

waited for you for a few years now. What are a few more months?

“There are people taking care of him. I really want to stay with you two.”

Shaking her head, she chuckled. “Your headspace really was thrown into chaos after you saw your

son, huh? You should really go for your mother dislikes me. If you refuse to go back, I have a feeling

she’ll hate me even more.”

Upon hugging him, she continued, “I know it won’t be long. Our son and I will be waiting for you.”

The flight attendant urged Theodore to leave again.

Hence, with no other choice, he put Carl down, removed the scarf around his neck, and put it on the

boy. “Take good care of your mommy, okay? I’ll go and take care of some business.”

“Roger!” Carl responded with a straightened back. “You must return early, Daddy.”

“I will.” After making that promise with his son, Theodore unwillingly returned to the plane with the flight

attendant.

Although, he had to go through the inspection again because he left the plane. As he did, he turned his

line of sight toward his family.

Jasmine smiled faintly and waved at him.

Gazing at her, he thought, It’s thanks to Curtis’ matter that I returned from Norham. Otherwise, I

would’ve never returned to Norwal City due to that misunderstanding, and I would’ve never known that

I had a son. I’m grateful for what fate has arranged for me.

As Jasmine watched the hatch door closed with Carl, she sighed. “If I knew your father was going

away, I would’ve let you two meet earlier.”

“It’s pointless to regret that now, Mommy. You can’t turn back the clock. Rather than lamenting about

that, you should think about what present you should give me on Christmas. It’s still going to be the two

of us celebrating it this year.”

Dissatisfied, she questioned, “I already gave you your present. You still want more?”

“Eh?”

“Haven’t you met your father already?”

It was then Carl realized what was going on and protested, “You’re too cunning, Mommy. Isn’t it your

duty to take me to meet with my daddy? If you don’t want to buy me a gift, just say so.”

She nodded. “You’re right. I’m too poor to buy you a gift.”

“You’re so stingy, Mommy.” He sighed and touched the scarf on his neck. “In that case, I’ll use my

money to buy a gift for you this year.”

“You’re such a good son.” Gently pinching his cheek, Jasmine smiled. “I look forward to my gift, then!”

Silently, he thought, I feel like she’s trying to scam me of my money when she said that!

Rayna took Jefferson on a one-day cruise trip. The next day, they arrived at Jetroina.

The signal in the sea was bad. Thus, she had to reconnect to the internet on roaming with her new

phone before she received Jessica’s message, which stated: Jeremy’s laboratory is in Yorksland,

Frosa. I was worried Wyatt would get suspicious, so I didn’t ask for the exact address. However, I did

narrow the search area and marked all the laboratories in Yorksland. I’m sending you the map now.

Frosa was quite far away, so Rayna wanted to take a plane there, which she thought of switching to in

the middle of the trip.

However, Jefferson might not make it in his condition.
