After he took the plate, Dax returned to sit beside Tristan and started munching his chocolate cake, ignoring Geoffrey’s worried gaze.
Geoffrey, still stunned hearing Dax’s words, smiled worriedly as he looked at Tristan. When he saw Tristan nod, confirming it was okay, Dax addressed him like that. He smiled and excused himself.
However, before leaving, Tristan asked him, "Have you delivered the cake to Young Madam?" He remembered it was Bella who had asked for it.
"Yes, sir. I served the cake to Young Madam before coming here. Young Madam was on the phone, so I just put the cake in Young Madam’s room and didn’t talk to her," Geoffrey explained.
"I see," Tristan said, curious about who she spoke with. Sean? He shook his head slightly, trying to dispel his jealousy. "How about our lunch, Geoffrey?" he asked again. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"Will be ready in thirty minutes, sir."
"Marvelous," Tristan said, gently waving his hand to let Geoffrey know he may excuse himself from the room.
Tristan held his chin with one hand while watching his son eat his cake. He didn’t ask Dax anything and just let him finish his cake.
Seeing how adorable he ate, mouthing his cake with his tiny mouth was amusing. Tristan could spot a few stains of chocolate near his lips.
Dax devoured the four delicious slices of chocolate cake in just a few minutes; just before he wanted to take the last slice, he realized his father was staring at him. He turned to see him.
"Dad, do you want to eat too?" Dax asked, looking at the last piece of cake on the coffee table as if he wanted to offer it to his father, but the look in his eyes betrayed him.
Tristan tried to suppress his laugh, looking at his expression; he smiled at him before saying, "No, you go on eat."
"Thank you." Dax took the last cake and continued to eat again.
"Do you want some more?"
Dax shook his head, "No. Mommy will scold me if I eat too much cake before lunch...or right after."
Tristan couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, seeing that his son had just finished five slices of chocolate cake.
And now, he was worried that if Bella found out, she would definitely complain to him to let their son eat too much.
Tristan put aside his worries and took out his handkerchief to clean a few traces of chocolate on Dax’s mouth.
They continued to talk about various things. Tristan asked Dax about his hobbies and was surprised to learn that he liked computers, gaming, and eating.
When it came to music, Dax mentioned he merely learned to pass the time. He confessed he didn’t like sports or any physical activity.
This amused Tristan because it mirrored his own interests, except for the eating part. It seemed his son inherited his mother’s genes. Tristan recalled how Bella enjoyed eating many kinds of food — this is all he remembers about her besides her birthday.
...
Not long after, Tristan began to feel worried about keeping Bella waiting for them for so long. A few minutes later, he suggested they check on Bella, fearing she might be bored from being left alone for too long.
"Yes, Dad. Let’s go..." Dax agreed, slipping from his seat and immediately heading to Bella’s room.
