"We can't do anything about it anyway." Quinton sighed deeply. He could tell that Tiffany's family was strange, especially Damon. But even so, they were just outsiders. The most they could do was pity Tiffany. "You're not Tiffany's guardian, so the most you could do is advise Damon, but it's his business how he wants to raise his child. You can't meddle in that." Quinton frowned and continued, "You'd better worry about your child instead. I think something's wrong with Adie. He seems to be going through something he doesn't want to tell us about. Why don't you try to talk to him?"Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
"Yeah, I noticed that too." Renee forced herself to look away from Tiffany. "That boy is distancing himself from me. I was planning to talk to him anyway."
"Do it well. Don't let your anger get in the way and don't threaten to beat him up. He looks strong, but is actually quite fragile and sensitive. You can't be too harsh with him," Quinton instructed Renee. Many parents felt that they could be rough with their boys to make them more independent and responsible, but Quinton was once a boy, so he knew the truth. Boys needed love and adoration too.
"Got it." Renee rubbed her nose guiltily. "I promise to be gentle and not get mad this time." She had double standards when it came to her two children. She showered Abby with affection and never criticized her, so Abby grew up soft and dependent. She had no strength to handle the outside world and needed people's protection all the time. In comparison, Renee raised Adie using a much tougher method. She had thrown Adie into the sea when he was slightly more than a year old to make him learn to swim. When he was more than two years old, she gave him a child sniper rifle as a birthday present. Ever since then, he fell in love with shooting, boxing, and going on adventures. When he was three years old, Renee would make him sit beside her when she wrote codes as a form of entertainment. After some time, Adie learned how to do coding and program softwares skillfully.

Adie was different from ordinary children-he wasn't naughty, but when he did something wrong, it was usually something serious that would drive Renee mad. Once, he brought Abby out on a boat when Renee and Margaret were taking a nap, and sailed the boat for more than six miles. Although Sun Island was full of flat beaches and clear seas, it had scared Renee and Margaret out of their wits. Renee remembered beating Adie badly the day she found him and Abby. After that, Adie became submissive towards Renee and always obeyed her... until he snuck off to Beach City alone in search of Stefan, which infuriated Renee. Other than that, Adie never made any mistakes. He was a very sensible child and didn't worry Renee much, so she couldn't understand why he was behaving like this. He insisted on staying on that desolate island with the kidnapper and refused to go home even though he knew that everyone was worried about him. There must be something wrong!
