章節 568: Done

Michael tried to ask his question in a neutral tone, but his emotions were not easy to control. They had never been. 

However, seeing his mother hesitate and unable to answer his simple questions hurt. It hurt even more than Michael had expected. He knew that his parents abandoned Danny and him, but his mother's silent agreement to his accusations made him feel worse than expected.

Evalynn didn't know how to answer. Did that mean she never thought about them, in the first place, or did she never expect to be asked that question by her sons? Why wouldn't she expect that? 

"Please, answer honestly. It doesn't matter if your answer hurts us…" Michael murmured in a voice barely loud enough for his mother to hear.

She swallowed hard and looked to the ground. Her lips quivered but they parted soon. Seeing her reaction, Michael tensed up.
