I giggled softly to myself at how obedient the children were in Hayden’s presence. Hayden was quite strict with the children although I knew that he loved them very much. It was probably because he cared for them very much that he was extremely strict on them and their upbringing. In a way, the children were a little scared of Hayden. I didn’t blame them at all because I knew well that Hayden could be very scary at times.
“When you’re done, Lilly will take you upstairs to your rooms. Make sure to brush your teeth and wash your face properly,” Hayden instructed curtly.
“Yes, Daddy…” the two mumbled in unison.
That was the standard response that our kids would give when Hayden used that tone of voice with them. It was a great thing to have such obedient children, but I also hoped that they wouldn’t feel too tense around Hayden. Usually, Hayden wasn’t stern with the children. However, when he gave them instructions, they needed to follow it to the letter.
