Finley recalled his father, who looked cold but was actually a softie. That old man became that cold because of his grandpa's mistake, pairing him with someone whom he didn't love.
Yes, Finley's mother wasn't someone Finley's father loved, but the father still loved Finley. He just didn't show it. He might be cold and caused stress to his legal wife, but he didn't neglect his only son.
He didn't even try to do adultery with his past lover. That man was admirable even for Finley, who didn't know whether to side with his mother or his father.
In the end, for the price of going back in time, his mother passed away. But that might be a good thing. His mother could now rest in peace and wouldn't be tormented living in a house with no one to love her.
Finley shook his head, pitying the current development of his family. But regardless of what his family situation was, he would still protect this baby even if he wasn't the toddler's family.
