Chapter 355 Robert's Mother
- He has a mother. I asked patiently, "So, where is she now?"
- Calmly, he answered, "She's a homewrecker. That man's wife came after her, so she was forced to flee. She took me with her, but she abandoned me the moment we arrived in France. A rich French man wanted to marry her, but on one condition: she must abandon me. I thought she would say no, but she agreed to his term after all."
- She agreed to his term after all. The answer wasn't the worrisome part; the boy's tone was. He spoke of it too matter-of-factly. Most adults couldn't even deal with abandonment, and yet he saw it as a fact. Something that he couldn't change.
