Chapter 25 Duncan was completely stunned, hardly able to believe when he had returned to. Seeing his own short arms and legs, he found it utterly unbelievable. He had gone back to when he was eight years old! Now Rosalie was only seven, pressing down on him like a little tyrant! The days when he was eight felt so distant that he couldn't even remember what they were fighting about at this age. However, he didn't want to repeat the life he had with her in his previous existence-constantly bickering and refusing to speak his true feelings. So when Rosalie once again demanded to know if he admitted hist mistake, Duncan raised both hands in surrender without hesitation. "I was wrong, I was wrong, isn't that enough? Rosalie, let me go!" Rosalie hesitated and looked at him several times, her drool layering his face, before she finally let go. Still, she sized Duncan up repeatedly and even poked him. "Duncan, something's wrong with you. You didn't fight back. You're not yourself!" "Tell me, have you been replaced by a monster?" She pouted and took a few wary steps back. Duncan hadn't expected her to be so alert, realizing something was off Chapter 25 right away. But he didn't intend to hide it, simply saying, "I don't want to fight with you anymore. Can't I just let you have your way?" "Not just this time. From now on, I'll let you have your way every time." Little Rosalie couldn't quite figure out what had happened, but knowing that Duncan would give in to her from now on made her instantly swell with pride. She lifted her chin arrogantly and snorted, "That's more like it. If you don't keep your word, I'll still hit you, and bite you, hmph!" As she spoke, she shook her little fist threateningly, but she was so cute that it had no intimidation at all. If Duncan were still a child, he would have found her infuriating and kept fighting with her, hurting each other. But now, Duncan wouldn't do that anymore. It wasn't easy to get a second chance, and he didn't want to repeat the same mistakes. Little Rosalie was very easy to coax; as long as you went along with her, she would forget everything that just happened. She even smiled, took his hand, and bounced home with him. With his free hand, Duncan rubbed the spot on his face where there was a bite mark, sucking in a few sharp breaths. So ruthless at such a young age! When they got home, Conrad, Paige, and Angela all vied to hold Rosalie, doting on her and spoiling her, as if they couldn't bear to let her go. Chapter 25 Duncan looked at his now empty hand, dazed for a moment, his expression a bit complicated. Tsk, really used and tossed aside. Not far away, Julian was quietly staring at him, his usually gentle eyes. narrowing slightly, a flash of coldness passing through them. "Duncan, come home with me. I have something I want to talk to you. about." Duncan stared at his brother, whom he hadn't seen in years, a little dazed and followed him instinctively. Halfway there, he looked at Julian's back and sensed that something was off. Maybe... he wasn't the only one who had been reborn. Julian was now thirteen, but he was nothing like the innocent eleven- year-old in Duncan's memory. Every move he made exuded a reassuring presence.
