Revenge with Her Quadruplets

Chapter 85 Affects His Emotions

Chapter 85 Affects His Emotions

"Well...Sir, I'm at the market. Cabbages are really cheap, so I need to buy some. Goodbye!" Elijah said, and he was about to hang up.

Sebastian couldn't allow that.

He immediately made a video call.

Elijah was holding a small pushcart, with a phone in one hand and a milk bottle hanging around his neck.

When he saw the video call, he reluctantly watched as the elders snatched up all the cabbages.

He felt frustrated but accepted the video call.

"Why do you want to see me?" Elijah asked with a bright smile.

Sebastian saw that Elijah was indeed in the market. His little face was rosy from the heat.

He was pulling a small cart. He had a milk bottle hanging around his neck and was wearing a white sun hat, a white t-shirt, and denim overalls, which made him look cute.

Suddenly, Sebastian got emotional and felt bad for him. He had never expected to witness such a heart-wrenching scene.

"Elijah, where's your mother?" he asked, trying to hold back his anger. How could his mother let such a little child go to the market alone?

"Oh! My mommy? She has something to do," Elijah answered while feeling confused.

Sebastian looked at him, overwhelmed by compassion. His son was so young, yet he was out here shopping and would have to cook when he got back.

Sebastian didn't dare to imagine what kind of life they had been living all these years.

"Elijah, why did you go out to buy groceries by yourself?" Sebastian suppressed the pain in his heart as he asked.

"Oh! Grandma is sick and can't look after us these days. Both our mommies don't know how to cook, and I like buying groceries."

"Mommy says that life is meant to be experienced by ourselves, and only by doing things and seeing them for ourselves, can we learn true skills. Mommy says we have to start with small things and do them well."

With these words, Elijah pulled his cart towards a nearby stall.

While Sebastian was silent, he looked at the stall owner and asked, "I want to buy some chicken meat, the kind that's good for making delicious soup."

Sisi was injured, so he needed to make him some chicken soup.

"Sure, little buddy. Just like last time, I'll pick out the best for you," the vendor said with a friendly grin.

"Thanks a lot! Wish you good business," Elijah replied. He was a sweet kid, and the vendors liked him and often gave him a little extra.

But Elijah never took more than he paid for; his mom taught him not to be greedy.

"That's 15 dollars in total," the vendor said while smiling.

"I've got to hang up now. I'm going to pay with PayPal. Thanks for calling; let's chat again sometime later."

"Okay."

Sebastian's heart was aching.

After ending the call, he stared out the window. It was a scorching noon, and Elijah's face was reddened from the sun. However, he showed no signs of complaints and seemed to be genuinely enjoying himself.

The little child had two godmothers, but they had him go shopping and cook for them.

Thinking of this made Sebastian angry, but he couldn't do anything for now. He was afraid to disturb Elijah's mom, who would take him and disappear for good.

He needed to think this over and make plans.

"Sebastian," the voice of Samuel came from outside.

Sebastian raised his eyes and saw Samuel walking over in a hurry.

"Sebastian, I heard that Waylon was taken away by Eleanor. Is that true?" Samuel asked. He had been taking a vacation in the fishing village and had only learned about it this morning.

Sebastian's face turned grim and said, "No, Dad. Who told you this?"

"It was Matthew. He called me and asked how I was doing this morning and mentioned it. I rushed back immediately. Have you found Waylon?"

Samuel was anxious. Waylon was Sebastian's only son, and he couldn't afford any mishaps.

"Matthew?" Sebastian narrowed his eyes. Every person in the Moore family had their own hidden agendas. Over the years, he had grown more powerful, and his older brothers didn't dare to make obvious moves, but they were scheming and causing him trouble behind the scenes.

Samuel was getting older and shouldn't be bothered with such things.

"Dad, there's no need to worry. Someone tried to take Waylon, but Eleanor risked her life to save him," Sebastian told him what happened briefly.

Upon hearing this, Samuel was relieved and smiled, saying, "I knew it; Eleanor would never do such a thing. She's a kind-hearted girl; I could see it from the first time I met her."

Sebastian nodded and added, "She's injured and resting in her room."

"Alright, let Ellie have a rest, and be sure to prepare some nourishing food for her."

Samuel asked him to take care of Eleanor and then left.

Sebastian had a sleepless night, but there was still plenty of work awaiting him.

He turned on his computer to continue working.

However, as he looked at the words on the computer screen, he had trouble concentrating. He felt confused as he thought of the scene of Eleanor risking her life to save Waylon.

Eleanor...he was distracted by her.

He had grown up emotionally distant, so besides his father and a few close friends, few people could easily affect his emotions.

Sebastian couldn't focus on documents, so he shut down his computer and asked Emmett to bring lunch over.

Emmett was busy with work, but he immediately arranged for lunch once he received Sebastian's call.

The butler also sent reliable chefs and servants to the Sannot Courtyard to prepare dinner.

Eleanor had slept until the afternoon. When she awoke, she found Waylon sleeping by her side.

She watched her son sleeping quietly, and her heart swelled with contentment.

"Knock, knock..."

There were two knocks on the door, and Eleanor knew it was Sebastian.

"Come in," Eleanor said as she slowly slipped into her shoes.

Sebastian walked inside and saw Eleanor was dressed in white house wear that highlighted her attractive figure.

After their one-night stand six years ago, Sebastian had never touched any other woman.

Seeing Eleanor in her thin summer nightwear and her tempting body, he could feel his body was getting hot.

As their eyes met, Sebastian's dark eyes appeared calm, though he was longing for her body.

Eleanor simply watched him calmly.

Yet, she couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about Sebastian.

Sebastian casually asked, "Is Waylon still sleeping?"

Eleanor responded, "Yes."

Her stomach growled, and Eleanor felt somewhat embarrassed. After she went back, she had gone straight to bed and hadn't even had lunch.

Sebastian looked down and said, "Wake up Waylon, and let's go downstairs for dinner."

Before Eleanor woke him from his dream, Waylon had already awakened.

"Daddy, I'm hungry," he said while touching his tummy.

Sebastian looked at his son gently.

"Freshen up, and then we'll have dinner downstairs," he said before leaving the room.

Soon Eleanor took Waylon downstairs for dinner.

When they entered the dining room, they saw Hailey who was seemingly virtuous but had a wicked heart.
