“Daddy, it’s said that parents have to be equally fair to their children. Problems will arise if they can’t treat their children fairly!” Tony warned, his gaze fixed on Alpha Kilian.
Alpha Kilian cast him a curious look. “What kind of problems will arise?”
Tony deliberated for a moment before stating, “It’ll lead to mental and spiritual unhealthiness easily!”
Upon hearing that, Alpha Kilian nodded solemnly. Just when Tony thought that he would reflect on his actions and decide to treat all his children equally, the man commented, “It looks like I haven’t been strict enough with you. You’ll be fine when I discipline you more often from now on.” Tony was thoroughly shocked.
“It isn’t just me. You two must also treat Donna as I do in the future,” Alpha Kilian instructed.
At that moment, Ben also leaned forward. “Daddy, why are you different from most parents who usually favor their sons over their daughters?”
“Have you not heard that rare things are precious?” Alpha Kilian asked. His words left Tony and Ben speechless.
Good Lord! So that’s the reason?
Noticing their silence, Alpha Kilian smirked. “In our family, Nelly and Donna are the only females. The rest of us are males, so shouldn’t we be protective and accommodating towards them?”
Tony and Ben felt it made sense since he had said as much.
“Just remember, the men of the Morris family are born to be independent, but the women of the Morris family are born to enjoy life. Do you understand?” Alpha Kilian urged, his eyes fixed on them through the rearview mirror.
Tony and Ben both nodded firmly.
Spoiling Donna and Nelly in every aspect had always been their attitude. Their envy at that moment was simply a joke. More importantly, they were extremely pleased to hear Alpha Kilian utter those words.
As a result, that fight for affection became a catalyst for their relationship, bringing the father and sons closer together.
The car bounced up and down as it drove along the bumpy road, but it did not affect their conversation in the car at all.
More than ten minutes later, they arrived at their destination.
Looking at the hotel in the distance, Ben remarked, “This is the place. They say they’ve booked the entire hotel. But now there are guards outside and inside after the attack yesterday. Security is probably even tighter now.”
Alpha Kilian stared at the building, his eyes narrowed.
After driving nearer to the hotel, they found a relatively safe and secluded spot to park the car. Then they went to a higher overlook to survey the situation within the hotel.
Tony scrutinized the hotel through binoculars. “The hotel has two floors. There are two guards outside, but I can’t see inside clearly.”
As Alpha Kilian studied the hotel with the binoculars, he noticed that the entire building was brightly lit, except for one or two that were pitch dark.
“I remember Nelly likes to turn off the lights when she goes to bed, right?” Alpha Kilian asked the two boys.
Tony nodded. “Yes, sir. She can’t even stand the faintest light when she sleeps. She often turns off her phone too because she’s afraid it will disturb her sleep.”Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Hearing that, Alpha Kilian gestured for them to look ahead. “The entire hotel is lit. Only that room, the other one there, and the one on the far right are in darkness.”
Tony and Ben immediately understood his meaning. “So if Nelly is here, she must be in one of those three rooms!” Tony concluded.
“But don’t most hotels have rooms that don’t face the sun? What if her room is on the other side?” Ben questioned.
“People generally choose rooms that face the sun. She must be in one of those three rooms unless she didn’t have a choice,” Alpha Kilian explained.
After thinking for a while, Ben nodded thoughtfully.
Suddenly, an idea popped into Tony’s mind. “Ben, do you still remember the Morse code that Nelly taught us when we were young?”
Ben nodded. “Yes, I do. What do you have in mind?”
Tony searched his backpack and pulled out a black pen after putting it down on the ground and rummaging around. A few minutes later, he clicked it, and a green light appeared.
“A laser pen? You carry such a thing around with you?” Ben asked.
“I got it as a free gift when I made a purchase before, and I’ve been carrying it around ever since. Never did I expect it to come in handy!” Tony turned to Alpha Kilian. “What do you think, Daddy? Shall we give it a try?”
