Chapter 337


    The conglomerate’s newly acquired real estate project was finished today, and Frederick was there for


    the inspection, and he got home veryte.


    As soon as he stepped inside, he noticed an unusual quietness.


    Manley wasn’t in the living room building Lego towers, and Hayes was nowhere to be


    seen.


    Sadie promptly stepped forward to take Frederick’s ck coat, respectfully handing him a ss of


    warm water.


    “Where are Hayes and Manley?”


    “Mr. Winston, Manley went shopping with Ms. Yuna,” she replied.


    Frederick’s eyebrows knitted together. “Without Hayes?”


    Sadie looked ufortable. “Mr. Winston, Hayes hasn’t left his room since you left this morning. He


    refused to eat. I tried to get him, but his room has a fingerprint lock. I can’t get in.”


    “Did Yuna go check on him?”


    Sadie felt nervous, knowing her answer would upset Mr. Winston, but she didn’t dare to lie. She let out


    a sigh and shook her head.


    As expected, Frederick’s stern face grew even darker.


    Hayes‘ room was equipped with a fingerprint lock that only registered his, Frederick’s, and Yuna’s


    prints. Although the servants couldn’t get in, Yuna could.


    That damn woman! Their son locked himself in his room all day, and she, as his mother, didn’t even


    care!


    Frederick put down his ss of water and headed straight for Hayes‘ room.


    Pressing his finger against the panel, he heard a beep, and the door opened smoothly.


    At that moment, Hayes was sitting at his desk, doing nothing, just sulking with his arms crossed.


    “Why aren’t you eating?” Frederick asked.


    Hayes gave him a resentful look and picked up a pen, furiously scribbling on a notepad. “Because you


    won’t let me go to school. I want to go to school!!”


    Frederick looked grim. Seeing Hayes using hunger strike as a threat, he felt both helpless and upset, “I


    wanted to transfer you to a new school, but since you don’t want, I can only hire a tutor for you.”


    Hayes continued to write furiously, “I don’t want a tutor, I want Teresa!”


    Every time he faced Hayes, Frederick felt a strong guilt because of his understanding.


    He always thought it was because of his busyness that he neglected Hayes, causing his unusual


    maturity for his age.


    Though Hayes was mature, he was more stubborn than Manley, and more obstinate.


    His obstinacy was just like Marguerite’s, so Frederick was often at a loss and would eventually give in.


    But today, faced with Hayes‘ obstinacy, he was particrly angry! Because his reason for transferring


    Hayes was rted to Marguerite, he obsessively thought that Marguerite had influenced Teresa to get


    close to Hayes intentionally. And the poor little guy even took others‘ malicious intentions as kindness,


    even threatening him with a hunger strike!


    How could he bear it?! Frederick’s expression grew colder, yet he suppressed his anger, “Hayes! Don’t


    make me angry!”


    Hayes looked at Frederick, his dark eyes shed, then he turned his head, urgently wrote, “She is my


    only friend! ONLY ONE!”

    Hayes wrote with such force that his pen almost went through the paper. His words clearly expressed


    his dissatisfaction.


    Chuck, who had rushed over when he heard the news, couldn’t help but sweat when he saw this


    situation.


    Oh no! Hayes was really pushing Mr. Winston!


    He immediately stepped forward to mediate, only to see Frederick snort, turn around and leave,


    mming the door behind him.


    Chuck and Hayes were locked in the room together. He looked at the closed door, then at the stubborn


    Hayes, and didn’t know what to do. Then, he saw Hayes lift the notepad, clumsily wrote two big words,


    “GET OUT!”
