"Auntie, what did you miss? Does it mean that Thomas has missed a lot either?"
Thomas was eager to ally with his mother, so he immediately stepped forward to please her. With a sweet smile at the corners of her mouth, he looked very cute.
Hester raised her hand to touch her hair awkwardly, and she narrowly avoided Thomas' inquiring gaze. No one wanted to hear their parents quarrel, right?
She had been away for three years, so she didn't know what happened between them. At this moment, it was just her guess and couldn't be counted.
Moreover, the child was innocent after all. She didn't want to get him involved.
"Oh! I just said it casually. Thomas, don't take it seriously. All these things have nothing to do with us. Let's just pretend that we don't know!"
"Okay!"
Disappointed, Thomas lowered his head. He was confused but he didn't ask. When he wanted to know more about his mother, his father was the same.
Later, Lisa told him not to keep asking, or his father would be sad. If dad was sad, then was mom also sad at this moment?
"Auntie April, I am hungry."
"Oh my God! You have slept for so long. It's strange that you are not hungry!"
Hester glanced at the time and was surprised. It turned out that Thomas had been asleep for nearly four hours, and there was no movement from Lisa. She'd better make something first.
"Thomas, lie in bed obediently. I'll cook some porridge for you, okay?"
Hearing that his mother was going to cook porridge herself, Thomas' morbid face flashed with excitement. He nodded vigorously, hoping that his mother could cook the porridge as soon as possible, which was also his wish for many years.
After comforting Thomas, Hester stood up from the ground, but fell to the bedside because she had been squatting for a long time. She took a d
er."
Hearing that something had happened to Hester, Austin immediately sat beside her, put his hand on her wrist and examined her carefully. Hester's body had been greatly injured before, so she must be careful!
"Brother Austin, don't listen to Thomas. He was just making a fuss. Look at me, I'm very strong. How could anything happen to me?
I just squatted for too long and my legs are numb!"
After the examination, Austin breathed a sigh of relief. He rolled up his sleeves and looked at Thomas with a smile, hiding the guilt deep in his eyes.
It was because he had made too many mistakes that he needed to make up now. Even though he had already caused great damage, he didn't care at all. As long as Hester was still by his side, everything would be fine!
"What does Thomas want to eat? I will cook for you. Can you let Auntie April rest?"
"Okay!"
Without hesitation, Thomas nodded. Of course, it was what he wanted. She didn't need to cook, and she could accompany him for a long time!
"You!"
Holding his nose dotingly, Hester smiled. Who was such a quirky child like?
"Drink some ginger water later. You know you can't bear the cold, but why don't you pay attention to it?"
