Chapter 4

Back to the Cater's mansion.

When I entered the living room, it was already nine o'clock. I looked around and didn't see Lundy. Frowning, I asked, "where is Lundy?"

Cheryl, who was responsible for taking care of Lundy, was coming downstairs. "Master, young Master has taken a shower and is staying in his room. Do you want to go upstairs and see him?"

I nodded slightly and went upstairs.

"Master, there is one more thing..."

Cheryl said hesitantly, "when the young master came back tonight, there was a very serious bruise on his wrist. I asked him, but he refused to tell me. I don't know if he was bullied in the kindergarten. I think we should pay attention to this matter."

"Got it. I'll go upstairs and have a look."

Then she quickened her pace to the door of Lundy and knocked on it.

Soon, Lundy came over and opened the door for me. hE didn't have any reaction when he saw me. he opened the door, turned around and went in.

I followed him and saw him go back to the table and draw something with a brush.

Seeing that he was serious, i didn't disturb him. I waited aside for a while. When he put down his pen, I said in a low voice, "Cheryl said that you were injured and let dad have a look at you."

Lundy showed me her injured hand obediently.

Seeing the wound on his hand, I frowned slightly. "How did you get it? Was it bullied by a child?"

Lundy was stunned and then shook his head hard.

Wasn't he bullied?

"Then what's going on?"

Lundy picked up the brush again and wrote a few letters on the notebook.

"Fell"

After that, he tilted her head with uncertainty.

"Fell down?"

I saw his handwriting and asked him for confirmation.

Lundy nodded.

I breathed a sigh of relief and touched his wound. "Did the teacher apply medicine to you?"

Lundy nodded.

I nodded, looked at his white and tender hands, and said, "the injury has only been healed for a few days. You still need to apply medicine. Daddy will help you, okay?"

The little guy didn't refuse.

I squatted down, picked him up and went downstairs.

When we arrived at the hall, I put the little boy on my lap, sat on the sofa and ordered Cheryl, "bring the medicine box here."

Cheryl brought the medicine box here soon.

I took out the spray and sprayed it on his wound. Then I kneaded him for a while.

Lundy didn't make a fuss. he just pursed his lips and frowned.

I observed his expression from time to time to see if it hurt.

This little guy looked a little like that woman in a serious way.

As if sensing my gaze, Lundy looked up in confusion and pointed at the corner of my mouth with a frown.

I knew what he meant. I held his little hand and comforted him, "it's okay. A little wild cat bit me."

Lundy was even more confused. She grabbed the pen and paper on the tea table and wrote, "cat, where did you get it?"

"It came back from abroad."

After saying that, I didn't want to talk about that woman anymore. i was afraid that I couldn't suppress anger in front of my son.

Seeing that the little boy was still confused, I raised my hand and took away the pen and paper in his hand. "Well, it's about time. Daddy will take you to bed."

..

Aimee's pov

When I took the Dexter's car home, I put the car on the agenda.

When we arrived home, the two kids were still awake and Daphne was watching TV with them in the living room.

As soon as they saw me, the two kids immediately looked away from the TV and trotted over. "Mommy!"

I touched their heads with a smile.

"Did you drink?"

Aviva wrinkled her nose and said, "I'll make you some tea to sober up. You won't feel headache tomorrow morning."

Then she turned around and went into the kitchen.

Cyrus pulled me all the way to the sofa and sat on my laps. He carefully massaged my temples and said, "I'm giving mommy a massage. Mommy doesn't feel uncomfortable."

Daphne's eyes lit up with envy. "Why is my godson so considerate?"

I looked at her with a smile. "Like it? You can have a baby too."

Daphne shook her head repeatedly. "Forget it. I just want to steal these two from your family."

Cyrus comforted her, " you don't have to steal it. If you are drunk, my sister and I will take care of you in the same way."

"The babies are so good. I love you so much!"

I took the sober up tea from Aviva and took a sip.

After drinking the tea, it was late.

"Well, I'm fine. Go upstairs and have a rest!"

I kissed the foreheads of the two kids.

The two kids nodded, said good night to Daphne and went upstairs obediently.

After the two kids went upstairs, the smile on my face gradually faded away.

"What's the matter?"

Daphne turned off the TV and came over to ask.

I hesitated for a moment and told him what happened tonight. "I met Penn at dinner just now."

I couldn't tell anyone about what happened six years ago.

Hearing this, Daphne was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but sigh, "what kind of tragedy is this? The River City is so big. I thought that if you didn't take the initiative to find each other, there would be almost no chance for you to meet each other."

I lowered my eyes.

"So, what do you think after seeing him?" Daphne asked.

My lips twitched. " Six years ago, he and I were over. Now we are just two strangers. I won't be influenced by him anymore. For the rest of my life, I just want to take good care of Aviva and Cyrus and lead a good life with them."

Daphne smiled and patted me on the shoulder. "That's good. You're so excellent, and there are many people chasing after you. Take your time. Let's abandon that scum!"

I nodded slightly and didn't want to continue this topic. So I changed the subject. "By the way, I haven't bought a car since I came back. Today's reception party is held with colleagues' cars. It's not convenient. Are you free tomorrow morning? Can you go with me to pick a car?"

"What do you want to buy? I have several cars in the garage. You can just pick one."

I raised my eyebrows with a smile, "so good?"

Daphne wrapped her arms around my neck and said confidently, "of course. You are my godson's mother, and mine is yours!"

I promise with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Daphne checked the time and found that it was very late. Then she slowly went back to the next room.

After I washed my face, I lay on the bed, but I couldn't fall asleep.

After tossing and turning for a long time, i finally fell asleep.

In a daze, I seemed to return to the empty room of Wilk.
