Hearing that, Amelia turned around and saw Abner coming over. He said to her, "Amelia, I've... finished gargling."
"Okay, good boy." He was really obedient and the adults did not need to worry about him.
If others, who had been with Abner, heard this, they would probably break a wall.
Abner did not listen to everyone.
For example, he was very obedient in front of Sawyer and Amelia, but in front of Ryan, Ruth, and Savannah, they had to listen to him more.
Not to mention Sissi, who was tortured by him a lot. In her heart, Abner was like a "Psychopathetic"!
When Abner sat back beside her, Amelia picked up the remote and asked, "Do you want to watch TV?"
"Yes!"
Amelia turned on the TV and started switching channels. "You can ask me to pause when you see a channel you like."
Abner focused on watching the channels. After a while, he suddenly said, "Stop!"
Amelia stopped and found that it was a military program.
Under the guidance of the instructor, the host adjusted his posture of holding the gun and then shot...
Although the bullet did not hit the bull's eye, the "bang" still made people's hearts beat faster.
Amelia didn't forget that Sawyer didn't only sell drugs but also private weapons. Abner was so young, but he liked watching this kind of program. Was it hereditary?
She couldn't help asking him, "Abner, why do you like to watch this?"
Abner's eyes were unblinking. "He can shoot... He's very handsome!"
"Handsome? Why do I think it's very dangerous?" Seeing Abner look at her, Amelia continued, "Every time someone shoots, it means that there may be casualties. Don't you think it's cruel if a good person gets shot?"
Abner cocked his head and asked, "What if the bad guy... gets shot?"
Amelia was stunned and said, "Of course, the one who shot is very handsome! But in this world, only police and soldiers can use guns to punish bad people. People like us can't shoot at will with guns. Do you understand?"
"Never be like your father, little fellow."
"Police? Soldiers?" The little boy suddenly clenched his fists. "I want to be a policeman ora soldier!"
After heaving a sigh of relief, Amelia suddenly had a rather mischievous thought, what reaction would Sawyer have if he heard Abner's words?
Ryan couldn't help but burst out laughing. "After coming here to visit you, he's established the goal of his life, and he's still so upright! Looks like I'll have to bring him around more in the future so that he wouldn't turn bad."
Amelia had a flash of rejection in her eyes. "Uncle Quartley, you can ask the servants at home to send Abner here next time."
Anyway, Mr. Hopper was willing to treat Abner well for her sake.
Hearing that, Ryan's smile froze. He wondered if she didn t want to see him.
Alas, he was old. His son was unfilial and his grandson was solitary. It was not easy for him to meet a junior whom he could talk to, but it ended up like this again.
"Grandpa..." While Ryan was still disconsolate, a small hand reached out to him. "Eat... the candy."
Ryan looked at the pink candy lying in Abner's hand and a sweetness welled up in his heart.
But he remembered that it was a gift from Amelia to Abner. If he ate it, would she hate him more?
In fact, Amelia didn't mind. Abner was the grandson of Ryan, so it was natural for him to be filial.
Ryan finally took the candy from Abner, but he did not eat it. Like what Amelia had done to Abner, he put the candy in his suit pocket.
In this way, it would not make Amelia unhappy and he could accept Abner's filial act.

Patrick looked at Abner and saw the boy leaning against his wife, looking at him with a blank face.
It was really...
He had a face that was as unpleasant as Sawyer's.
Patrick thought and lost all interest in playing with the kid.
Considering that Ryan and Abner wanted to stay for dinner, Amelia couldn't help but say to everyone, "You can talk first. I'll go to the kitchen and have a look."
When she disappeared, Ryan immediately asked Patrick, "Nephew Hopper, may I ask you a question?"
Patrick picked an empty sofa and sat down. "That depends on what you ask."
"I want to ask you if Amelia hates me very much?"
Instead of asking Amelia, he asked Patrick.
Perhaps it was because Ryan was used to Patrick's vicious words and after hearing some unpleasant words from him, he was fearless.
Patrick put his index finger on his knee and tapped, "So what if she hates you or not?"
Ryan helplessly asked, "Just because Sawyer is my son?"
Patrick pointed at Abner. "Let me ask you first. What's Amy's attitude towards your grandson?"
Ryan paused for a moment and then said, "As usual."
"She can treat Sawyer's son as usual, so why has her attitude towards you become so cold?"
Patrick's lips curled into a sneer. "I think you should try to find the answer from yourself, shouldn't you?"
