[Comprehensive] The family has waste wood and is beginning to grow

The next day, it was February 12th of the year, Dino's [-]th birthday.

Because the abdominal injury has not fully healed, Enzo followed Shamar's doctor's advice and did not walk around too much. Instead, he was pushed by Laura in a wheelchair and returned to Gabrielone's headquarters castle.

And Dino, who had endured alone for several days in the anxiety of changing family situation, finally broke down and burst into tears after seeing his father come back.

A few days ago, he heard many members of the family whispering that Jiudaimu was dead, and he felt endless despair as if he had fallen into a ten-thousand-year ice cellar.And he is not willing to believe this kind of thing at all. In his impression, his father is omnipotent, no matter what happens, his father can turn everything around.

But the fact that his father has not returned for several days is tormenting his nerves day after day, but he can't do anything, he can only suffer from his own uselessness time and time again.

Originally, he had no expectations for his 12th birthday today, and even he himself almost forgot about it... Until he came down the stairs in the morning, he happened to see his returning father, and he was still with his mother!

Joy filled the canopy in an instant, but in the next second, he noticed that his father was in a wheelchair...

"Dad, what's wrong with your leg?!" Dino rushed to his father in a panic, and he didn't even fall down halfway.

Seeing his son, who was absolutely outstanding among his peers, rushing towards him like a cannonball, Enzo hurriedly shot.With one hand, he stopped his son's pounce, and with the other hand, he protected his abdominal wound.

"Stop! Son!" Due to physical reasons, Enzo's movements were much slower than in the past, and he could barely block the "love and care" from his son, and he said with a sigh of relief: "Don't worry, your father is so hard on me." Very...but if you just ran across like this just now, I might really report to God."

Laura also embraced Dino, and told him softly that there was nothing wrong with him. Dad's injury was almost healed, but it was not convenient for him to walk around recently.

Dino also grumbled and nodded repeatedly.

Enzo glanced over Dino's face seemingly casually, but he saw the redness and swelling of Dino's eyes at a glance. It was obvious that he hid himself and cried many times when he suffered all these things alone.

But he didn't poke it, firstly it was for the sake of the little man's face, and secondly... some tears are necessary, only in pain can he grow up better.

After finally appeasing Dino's emotions, Enzo originally didn't intend to bring up what happened in the past few days, but he didn't expect Dino to take the initiative to ask:

"Dad...Mr. Albert is dead too, right?"

Enzo was slightly taken aback, then looked at Laura out of the corner of his eye, as if asking for her approval.

And Laura also understood, and nodded to him... How to make Dino understand these things, just follow his way, she believes that he will use the most appropriate way for his son.

Turning his eyes back to Dino's still childish face, Enzo said slowly, "That's right, he's dead."

"Mr. Albert is dead...and the former Mr. Joseph, Mr. Matthew, and Mr. Timothy...their deaths are all related to you, Dad, aren't they..." Dino's voice couldn't help being tainted. I trembled.

Although he also felt that he had always been stupid, he was not stupid. With so many things accumulating, it was impossible for him to be so stupid that he would not notice anything.

Not intending to hide anything, Enzo confessed: "Yes, their deaths are all related to me, or I was behind the scenes."

"Because, because they are all bad guys, right...so, that's why you, Dad, killed them..." Dino's eyes were full of hope, as if he wanted to prove something to his father, I want to get the answer I want from my father.

"Heh...heh..." Enzo laughed softly, and there was even a hint of sarcasm in his laughter when he faced the enemy, "Then, in your opinion, I am a good person huh?"

Dino actually found that he couldn't answer for a while, lowered his head, and clenched his fists, trying desperately to restrain the waves in his heart.

"Dino, listen, if judged by the normal world view of ordinary people, I am definitely not a good person. I have done murder, smuggling, and money laundering, and I don't feel guilty or disturbed because of it. This is my world." Enzo said word by word, the aura around him made people tremble, "In the world of the mafia, there is no so-called good guys and bad guys, there are only winners and losers. But... I still hope that when you embark on this path in the future, in the pursuit of victory, you can always remember what you are pursuing this victory for, and don’t forget your original self.”

Knowing that this was a rare and serious conversation between his father and himself, Dino nodded with a vague understanding.Although he still can't understand it now, he will seriously write down every word his father said to him.

At this time, Enzo waved to Dino again, signaling him to come over, and the expression on his face softened a lot.

When Dino approached, Enzo stretched out his hand and stroked the back of Dino's head, and then the father and son touched their foreheads.

"Today is your 12th birthday, the last time you can retain the privileges that belong to a child, enjoy this task, happy birthday, dear."

After today, please let go of that innocence...

……

In the kitchen, Laura was busy.Since there was no preparation in advance, she decided to bake a birthday cake for Dino herself.Although I haven't stepped into the castle for several years, everything here seems to be the same, and the kitchen is the same as before.

The size of the kitchen is not small, and Enzo, who is sitting in a wheelchair, just sits in an empty corner of the kitchen, quietly watching Laura's busy figure.

"I said those things to Dino today, would you blame me?" Enzo suddenly said after a while.

Laura, who was stirring the egg liquid in the bowl, stopped what she was doing, but did not turn around, "No. You did the right thing. How should he go in the future? After all, you are better than anyone else." It is more suitable to guide him."

"I'm lying..." Enzo murmured softly, his kite-colored eyes were inadvertently filled with distress, "It's obvious that he looks like he's about to cry."

As a mother, she could only watch him take away the innocence of the child, but she had to admit it.

Sometimes, love is indeed cruel.

Seeing Laura resume the work at hand, Enzo sighed lightly, and said lightly: "No matter what, I still hope that he can grow up as soon as possible and become stronger..."

I hope the little guy can be strong enough to protect you...

Then, protect you instead of me...

……

There is no luxurious birthday party for the young master of the mafia family, just a family of three sitting together, quietly enjoying this rare time.

In the birthday song his parents sang for him, after silently making a wish in his heart, Dino puffed up his cheeks to gather energy, and then blew out the flames of the twelve candles in one breath.

The wish he made is very simple, or it is this wish every year, and it has never changed...

Hope every birthday, their family can be together.
