Chapter 181 – Feeling Annoyed.
"Diane… Michael… What's wrong with you? Why are Zian and Sophia crying like that? We're in a precarious situation but you guys are fighting in the back!". Asked Mrs. Anggi surprised.
"Diane doesn't allow Zian to go out with Sophia, while Zian insists he wants to be with her!". Michael said as he looked at his mother.
"Honey, why is that? Should you do that? Never mind, let Zian be with Sophia!". Said Mrs. Anggi while looking at Diane with a complicated expression.
"Diane, why did you have to arrest Zian? After all, Sophia is her aunt, so what's the problem?". Asked Grandpa Walton trying to get the hot Diane to talk.
"Because she's not his mother. Zian is my son, not her. So he should be with me, whether it's in times of fear or not. Zian shouldn't be far from me especially just because of her…". Diane replied sarcastically towards her grandfather, a deep look of fear in Diane's eyes.
Unable to stand the situation, Sophia squatted down to match her height with Zian.
After that Sophia turned Zian's body to face her while saying, "Hi… My dear, you're back with Mama! Later, if we have a chance to play with Ley too, how about it?".
"Aunt Sophia is right. Ley also wants to play with Zian and Aunt Sophia, but Ley has to wait for Papa and Mama first!". Ley said in an innocent voice after being in front of Zian.
Zian blinked his eyes at Ley. Zian gently wiped Ley's tears and said, "Uncle Michael said that boy shouldn't cry, so don't cry, okay?"
Sophia smiled at Zian's attitude towards Ley. Even though what happened to Zian was not comparable to Ley, who had not known his father since childhood, he rarely even met her mother.
"Aunt Sophia, I want to be with auntie now, it doesn't mean I don't love Mama. And for Mama, Zian loves you but today Zian misses Aunt Sophia and Uncle Michael. So Zian begs Mama not to be angry anymore!". Zian said after he finished talking to Ley who had been taken back by Syenina.
Sophia was touched when she heard Zian's request to his mother, she didn't think that Zian missed her so much that he dared to fight his mother.
"Diane… What's wrong with you? Just let Zian be with Sophia for a while! He'll come home with you soon!". Said Mrs. Anggi who can't bear to see her grandson cry.
For some reason, Michael began to suspect his sister's attitude and the love bond between Sophia and Zian. However, Michael immediately dismissed the suspicion because he knew very well how his sister's nature was more like his father's.
"Zian, let's go back with Mama!". Sophia said while taking Zian back to Diane because she didn't want to continue this debate in the midst of the precarious atmosphere they were in.
Zian felt sad and then looked down when Sophia said that to him. Sophia also felt sick doing that but she had no other choice.
"But, I want to be with Aunt Sophia, I want to be with Aunt Sophia. I don't want to be with Mama!". Zian said in a weak voice.
Hearing Zian's words, Mr. Walton spoke up in annoyance. "Zian, don't keep whining, we're in a precarious situation. Now it's better if you go back to your Mama and don't talk too much anymore. Don't make trouble because we're in the middle of a crisis. Don't you think that this act of yours will only make us chased by criminals that? Do you want us to be hit and then die?".
Zian was heartbroken to hear the loud and terrible voice of his grandfather so he immediately shut up and didn't whine anymore.
Meanwhile, Michael immediately joined the conversation because he felt his father was starting to go too far. "Father, don't be so loud with Zian! After all, he is still small and doesn't understand what we understand, don't be angry with him!".
"Now, let's just ask Zian, who does he want and don't force him! If he wants to be with Sophia then let him be with Sophia and we will take care of him with all our hearts. And for Diane, please allow Zian! And if he wants to be the same you then take Zian in a good way. If you love Zian, please allow him what he wants. But, he is still your son and he will never be anyone's child. How?". Michael said again, looking at Diane expectantly.
"Honey, never mind! Let Zian be with the person he wants. Don't prolong it anymore!". Said Kevan who had been silent all this time, and finally spoke up because he didn't want this commotion to increase.
Hearing Kevan's words, Diane glared at her husband with anger. But indeed she couldn't do anything because her husband and children defended Sophia more.
"Okay I allow it. But you guys don't try to take his attention away from me and Kevan. He is my son and will forever be my son whose attention should not be shared with anyone". Diane said.
Michael frowned at his sister's words. He thought what did she mean by saying he would take Zian's attention away from her?
"Of course, you are the most entitled to Zian. We will not do that! However, we still care for Zian because Zian is your son, that means he is our nephew!". Michael's words represent Sophia whose mouth is like a lock watching Diane's attitude.
"Anyway, I don't want Zian to love you guys more than me, that's impossible!" Diane still chuckles at her words.
"What's wrong with you? Why did you change?". Michael asked suspiciously.
"Diane, enough! Don't pretend you don't remember what I said yesterday. Come on, let's get out of here before the thugs find out about us!". Said Mr. Walton was annoyed.
Everyone nodded in agreement with Mr. Walton.
Actually, they felt sick and worried but had to be forced to see Diane who was so focused on her feelings.
