Compton pursed his lips. "Dad, Lucian was instigated by Celia this time; that's why he made a mistake…"
William slammed the table heavily. "Even so, he made a mistake, and he must be punished! Severely punished!"
"Dad, Lucian isn't inherently bad; he just got involved with the wrong people. How about this: the position of Deputy Minister of Education has been vacant for a while. Let him take it up. This role is unrelated to political affairs, which could serve as his punishment. Moreover, the work isn't too busy, so he can still spend time with you and my mom, as well as take care of his child."
William furrowed his brows lightly. "He can't take care of the child. To prevent him from leading the child astray, while the child is still young, your mom and I will raise him."
