Chapter 978
Brady fell into deep thought. His mind wandered back to a time long ago.
Back then, he hadn't even started elementary school. Once, when he paid a visit to relatives in Bay City, he met Darwin for the first time.
At that time, Cynthia pointed at Darwin and said to Brady, "You should take Uncle Darwin as your role model. He had been good at studying since he was a child, and he grew up to be an outstanding adult!"
Brady wondered if Cynthia was aware that Darwin was around thirty years old and still needed his wife to humor him.
Fiona and Brady arrived at their home. Anna crossed her arms, smiled at Fiona, and then looked at Brady. "You've got yourself a helper now?"
"Mom, I'm sorry!" Brady apologized quickly.
Anna remained silent.
Brady apologized every time but never changed. He was too good at forgetting. Once he even went to school and cried over the phone, saying he had worn only one shoe.
In the winter of North Alabama, it dawned late.
That day, she happened to be on a business trip, and Samuel took him to school. The car was parked at their backyard door, and because they were almost late, Samuel took the child and got in the car hurriedly. No one noticed that Brady was wearing only one shoe. Brady didn't notice, either.
Besides that, Brady also forgot to bring his backpack, homework, or textbooks.
Anna once suspected that Brady might have an intellectual problem. She specifically took him to see a doctor.
The result was just that he had a bit of attention deficit, which was a common issue among children.
"Is everything okay with Chicago?" Anna handed the durian to Fiona and asked.
Anna had just come home from work and heard from Samuel that Darwin accidentally pushed Chicago to the ground.
Samuel spoke very casually, and Anna didn't think it was serious. After all, Samuel often put Brady and Declan in dangerous situations as well.
"Nothing serious," Fiona replied.
"That's good. Indeed, when there's no danger, fathers will bring the danger." Anna shook her head and sighed.
"Is it the same with Samuel?" Fiona, who had no veterans around her to guide her in raising children, was quite clueless about this.
Anna immediately started complaining to Fiona.
Brady, who had somehow gotten hold of a piece of durian, was eating it messily. He added discontentedly, "Last time, when I went fishing with Grandpa and Dad, Dad pushed me into the river with his butt, and I almost got swept away!"
"Yes, that time really scared me to death. Luckily, I had enrolled Brady in swimming classes before, so he knew how to save himself when he fell into the water!" Anna said, shaking her head.
Fiona was truly shocked.
Anna continued, "So it is with Silas. Two years ago, he took his wife and kids skiing in the winter, and he knocked his son down the slope. His son was almost turned into a snowball!"
Fiona couldn't help but laugh.
In comparison, Darwin was much better. He was always very cautious.
When Chicago accidentally bumped into the corner of a table while walking, the next day, all the corners in the house, no matter how blunt, were wrapped up.
As for Charles, Darwin treated him even more thoughtfully. Before his accident, Darwin would call home punctually every day when it was time for Charles to take his medicine. After he came back, knowing that Charles had to take medicine every day, he immediately marked it down. Every time Charles took his medicine, Darwin would be there to confirm the dosage and type of medication, fearing any mistake.
