Chapter 510: [Bonus - ] May the worst villain win
"Mommy, did I do a good job?" Sebastian perked up, making Heaven pause in tucking him in. The latter smiled helplessly, stroking his hair gently.
"Basti, Mommy only told you to be careful, not to play spy," she said, narrowing her eyes playfully. "Don’t do something that can harm you, okay? Mommy and Daddy will do their best, so what happened will never happen again."
The little master’s lips stretched into a wide smile.
"But I like it!" he said. "It’s fun to watch Uncle Silas lie while I already know the truth! He doesn’t pay attention to me. If only he did, then he would know I already read those books he gave me and that I put a one-star review on all of them!"
"Oh, Basti." Heaven burst out in laughter. She shook her head. Her son was surely a mischievous one.
"Uncle Axel is much better. At least, even if he gifts me toys I will never use, my friends like them. It helps me make friends."
"Basti, friends who are gained through that don’t make them loyal friends." Heaven maintained a smile as her voice was laced with gentleness and sincerity. "Some people will toss you aside if you don’t benefit them anyone. But you’re still young, so do what makes you happy. But always remember what I said, alright?"
Sebastian grinned, nodding. He understood what his mother was saying, but didn’t argue. He would rather keep his answer to himself because, for sure, it might worry her. Bribes were not his way to gain friends, but it was his way to be in an advantageous position. If he said that, then that would make Heaven think she wasn’t raising her son properly.
"Now, you sleep." Heaven patted his leg, smiling. "I’ll stay here until you fall asleep."
