"What did you just say?"
Hugo Hayes stood there, his gaze intensely fixed on Julian, who had just awakened.
Always a stoic figure, Hugo's eyes had reddened at that moment.
Inside the room.
The servants were overjoyedly exclaiming, "Wonderful! The young master can speak! Wonderful!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Hayes!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Hayes!!"
Amid the chorus of congratulations, Hugo's gaze remained on Julian; he slowly squatted down, reaching out to his son, "Come here, let Daddy have a look at you."
Julian also appeared shocked at the moment, looking down at his hands and body.
Did he really just speak?
Julian opened his mouth, attempting to call Hugo 'Daddy' again.
But.
This time his vocal cords couldn't make a sound.
Julian was a bit anxious, slightly furrowing his brow, trying to speak again, but alas, to no avail.
Hugo's expression darkened, and he turned to the servant beside him, "Bring Finn Thackeray here."
"Yes, Mr. Hayes."
A few minutes later.
