Chapter 410
Huma returned to its normalcy for a good while after the teenagers came to stir things up.
While Sophia and Dexter continued to stay vigilant, they could tell what was going on. Ashton had drawn the
attention of those from the laboratory to himself by making waves overseas.
Although they were worried for him, they knew he was fulfilling his duty as an older brother.
"Stevie!" Xan was playing with Stevie in the courtyard, their heads touching as they soaked up the sun.
Sophia leaned against Dexter’s shoulders as she sipped on some tea. She was starting to get health-conscious now.
The world was never truly tranquil-someone had to bear the burden, after all. Dexter and Sophia carried that burden for the first half of their lives, and they could temporarily pass the baton to Ashton now.
Sophia sipped on her tea gratefully. "I finally understand the joys of having a son."
Dexter felt resigned. Ashton was meant to stick his neck out.
Both of them were aware of his abilities. Even if those from the laboratory were targeting him, they wouldn’t be able to touch him for a while.
Dexter and Sophia could still step in when there truly was no way out. After all, those people weren’t after Ashton’s life.
