for Veronica, he still confessed his love to her.
The name Daniel seems to have become a thorn in his heart.
As long as Veronica likes Daniel, this thorn will always be there.
The car arrived at the Reed House, and Mason got out and walked inside the mansion.
The sudden return of Mr. Mason surprised the Reed family’s servants. Usually, when Mr. Mason comes back, it’s on weekends or holidays, and it’s always on specific days.
When Mason walked into the living room of the main house, lasper immediately exclaimed upon seeing him. “Mason, why
“Today, I want to come back and live here,” said Mason.
Jasper was taken aback, “Are we staying here tonight instead of going back to the Barlow family?”
“Mmm, not going back,” said Mason.
“That’s great! Mason, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? Let’s eat together later!” Jasper said. “Our parents will be back soon, and if they find out that you’re staying over tonight, they’ll be very happy too!”
Jasper walked quickly towards the kitchen while speaking, intending to tell the chef to make some dishes that Mason likes.
Mick was staring at his younger brother and asked, “Did something happen?” only after Jasper left.
Mason turned to Mick and asked, “What do you think will happen, big brother?”
“Is it related to Veronica?” asked Mick. There must be a reason for the unusual situation, and the reason that usually makes his younger brother behave unusually is related to Veronica.
Mason tightly pursed his lips and remained silent.
Mick raised his eyebrows, it was indeed related to Veronica.
However, looking at his younger brother’s current state, he might not be able to ask anything even if he wanted to.
Not long after, Jason and Grace returned. They were slightly surprised to see their second son there and planning to stay the night, but they didn’t ask any questions and just went along with it.
After a good dinner, Jasper eagerly asked Mason all sorts of questions, clearly delighted about
Mason’s sudden return to stay with him.
“Will you come back to stay often, Mason?” Jasper asked.
Do you often stay with the Reed family? Mason’s eyelashes. trembled slightly. Would Veronica be upset or happy if he stayed with them frequently?
don’t know,” said Mason.
At that moment, Jasper’s phone rang, and it was a video call from William.
Jasper answered the call and William’s situation appeared on the screen.
Although William is currently in Deer Capital, he almost always has a video call with Jasper every night.
Over the years, this has become a habit.
William was clearly surprised when he saw Mason next to
Jasper, but he quickly recovered and greeted them. They started chatting casually, and when Jasper needed to use the restroom, she asked
Mason to hold her phone for her.
Suddenly, two teenagers faced each other, staring at their phone screens with wide eyes.
William was looking for a topic to break the silence when Mason spoke up first, “How much do you like
Jasper?”
“Cough cough…” William almost choked on his saliva. He never expected the other person to suddenly ask such a question.
“Um…”
“How much do you like it?” Mason continued.
After a moment of contemplation, William said seriously, “I really like it.”
“Even if she has feelings for someone else?” The Reed family knew that Jasper had always remembered the boy who was once called Lawrence, throughout these years.
Although Lawrence is currently missing, every year on the day the Abbott family had their accident, Jasper goes to the house they used to rent and visits Lawrence’s parents’ graves.
For Jasper, this has become like a ritual.
On the other hand, it can also be said that Lawrence holds a very important place in Jasper’s heart, and Jasper has never let go of Lawrence.
William said without hesitation. “Even if there is someone else
“So, you want to be with her forever, right?” Mason asked again.
“What if she only sees you as a friend forever?”
When this sentence was asked, William remained silent.
From a young age, he knew exactly what he wanted and has been working hard towards it. As for
Jasper, he knows that she considers him an important person and she often expresses her fondness for him.
But this liking has nothing to do with romantic feelings between a man and a woman, it’s just a fondness that has been carried on since childhood.
Everyone in the Reed family understands his feelings for Jasper, even Mason who is usually quiet and seems indifferent to everything has noticed it. However, Jasper himself is the only one who is still unaware of it.
“So I will make her see me as more than just a friend,” William replied to Mason.
When they grow up, and Jasper eventually understands romantic feelings between men and women, he will try his best to make Jasper fall in love with him!
He will make himself better, make Jasper more accustomed to his presence, and make her unable to live without him.
At that moment, Jasper approached and looked at Mason, asking, “Mason, what were you and William talking about just now?”
“Not much,” said Mason, returning the phone to Jasper. “You guys can keep talking.”
After speaking, he stood up and walked towards his own bedroom.
William’s plan, isn’t it just like him?
He didn’t want Veronica to see him only as a younger brother, but… was he too late? Because Veronica was about to officially accept Daniel’s proposal.
When he walked into the bedroom, he unexpectedly saw his father in his room.
“Wanna chat?” Jason said.
“What do you want to talk about?” Mason asked calmly.
“Let’s talk about you and Veronica. Did you come back to live here suddenly because of her?” Jason asked.
Mason pursed his lips and remained silent.
Jason continued, “Veronica has found someone she likes, right?”
Mason was suddenly stunned, he never expected his father to know.
Jason continued, “The boy she likes is named Daniel, right?”
“How did you know…”
“I am your father, I naturally pay attention to everything about you, including the people you care about,” Jason said.
Although his second son did not live with them often and had less contact with them, Jason’s concern for his child did not diminish.
Instead, because of his son’s self-isolation, he would give more attention.
He knew that his wife felt the most indebted to their child who had been taken away by Secretary Wylie since childhood and had not grown up with his parents.
And Secretary Wylie raised the child in such a bloody and cruel way that from a young age, the child’s personality was difficult to integrate into normal society.
Even though Mason’s diagnosis doesn’t classify as autism, he still doesn’t enjoy socializing with others.
Over the years, Veronica’s presence has become increasingly important. Jason knows that his second son cares about Veronica much more than anyone in the Reed family.
“I won’t let Daniel be with Veronica,” said Mason, because
Veronica can only be with him.
“Can you do it? Or do we need to use force to keep them apart?” Jason asked. “With the power of the
Reed family, we can definitely keep them apart. However, if we do that, it might damage the relationship between you and Veronica.”
“So we can’t come on too strong, we have to approach it gently, right?” said Mason.
Jason smiled slightly and said, “It seems that you have really grown up and become more understanding.”
“Veronica and Daniel are just starting out now, but in the future, they will definitely not be together,” he said with a determined look in his eyes.
Upon seeing this, Jason’s previously worried heart settled down. It seemed that his son had his own ideas, so as a father, he naturally had to support him wholeheartedly.
“Anyway, if you need any help from home, just ask, okay? You are a member of the Reed family, the child of me and your mother! The Reed family will always be your support,” said Jason.
Upon hearing this, Mason looked steadily at his father and after a while, he said, “Okay, I understand.”
Family… If he didn’t have much feeling towards his family when he was young, then over the years, he seems to be slowly getting used to them, getting used to the feeling of having siblings and parents.
If a family member is facing difficulties, one would naturally want to help. Is this not what it means to have a sense of responsibility towards one’s family?
Although the son’s response was very simple, Jason was very satisfied. “Okay, then rest well.”
When Jason returned to the room, Grace immediately approached him and asked, “What did you talk about with
Mason in his room?”
“We just talked about him and Veronica. Veronica has found someone she likes now, so Mason is probably feeling uncomfortable about it. That’s why he came back today,” said
Jason.
Grace was surprised, “What, Veronica has someone she likes?”
