Looking at the indifferent face in disbelief, Hester was about to doubt that he did it on purpose. Even though he could see her unwillingness, he could still ignore it so thoroughly. "What on earth do you want to do, Terence?' Hester thought.
Did he still want to show off in front of her how cute and sensible the child was and mock her two children who had passed away?
"Let's have a meal together, okay?"
Pulling the corner of his clothes slightly, Thomas looked up at Hester. He said timidly, and his tone was very cautious, as if he was afraid of being refused.
Facing that pair of watery eyes, Hester could not say anything to refuse. Hester sighed slightly and stood there helplessly. In the end, she nodded.
She just couldn't bear the disappointment in the child's eyes. It must have nothing to do with Terence.
"Okay!"
After a low whisper, Hester instantly calmed down. She just had a conflict with Terence and Melody, but she had no grudge against the child.
Some hatred only needed to be experienced by herself, and there was no need to continue. If she wanted to really get rid of it, she had to completely put it down.
"Let's eat!"
Thomas held Hester's hand tightly and repeated the two words, as if Hester would go back on her word if he was late. In fact, Thomas just wanted to spend more time with his mother.
Although he didn't understand why his father was so cold to his mother, he knew his father missed his mother. Otherwise, his father wouldn't have spent the whole day with his mother every week.
Hearing Hester's answer, Terence breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his head and glanced at her hesitant looks. His eyebrows frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything else.
The three of them slowly walked to the restaurant. Because of the large number of people, they didn't book a private room. They could only sit in the noisy hall.
Hester sat on the chair,
ho had just met her, was about to leave.
"Mom, you..."
"Thomas, Miss April has something important to deal with. Don't disturb her!"
With a gloom look on his face, Terence looked at Thomas with deep eyes, telling him not to be like this. Although he didn't know if she was trying to escape or for something else.
Thomas pouted and looked at Terence pitifully, as if he was about to cry. Thomas clenched the tablecloth with both hands, but did not continue his words.
Hester almost fled away from the restaurant. Thomas' pitiful eyes were like a sharp sword stabbing into her heart, corroding it.
Hester slowly exhaled a mouthful of stale air, but didn't know where to go. The phone in her hand started to ring again. She was frightened.
All of a sudden, her phone vibrated. She looked at the name on the screen of the phone, unable to react for a long time.
With a bitter smile, Jackson felt a strong sense of helplessness deep in his heart. Instead of being aggressive and arrogant as before, there was a trace of fatigue on his charming and feminine face.
"Hello!"
"I thought you would burn the bridge after crossing it!"
Hearing his aggrieved voice, Hester could not help but smile. She looked up at the sky and smiled.
"Yes, I do think so!"
