92 The Most Intimate Relationship

Leon quickly shook his head and anxiously said, “As long as I can stay by my Mother’s side, I don’t need anything else. You don’t have to worry about me.”

Leon’s anxious look was as if he was afraid that Vivian would not bring him along the next time because of this.

When Vivian heard this, she suddenly remembered herself in the orphanage before she put on the book.

Most of the children in the orphanage didn’t know their own birthdays. Those who didn’t have a clear birth date would think that the day they arrived at the orphanage was their birthday.

!!

In order to embezzle donations from kind-hearted people, the Dean would only buy a big cake on the first day of each year to celebrate the new year and birthdays of the dozens of children in the hospital.

Every year, Vivian’s wish was for her parents to remember her and take her home. Even if her family was poor, she could still beg for food to support herself. She would not add to their burden as long as she could stay by their side.

However, the reality was cruel. Until Vivian became an adult, worked, and made a lot of money, those two figures never appeared in her life.

Seeing the anxious look on Leon’s face, Vivian quickly hugged him and coaxed him softly, “You’re my son. Of course, you have to follow me. I won’t leave you behind even if I have to beg for food.”

“I said those words because I sometimes neglected you when I was busy with work and couldn’t accompany you often, so I felt guilty about it.”

Vivian knew it was because of his experience of being abandoned when he was young that he said those words. She blamed herself even more for not caring and loving him enough. That was why he was still so sensitive and insecure.

Leon’s head was gently resting in Vivian’s arms. Vivian’s words made his heart feel a lot more at ease.

He wrapped his arms around Vivian’s waist and whispered, “You don’t have to delay your matters because of me. I can take care of myself. I can also take care of you and my younger siblings. With me around, you can do whatever you want.”

In the depths of Leon’s heart, he was always worried Vivian would get tired of taking care of him.

However, Vivian’s background allowed her to empathize with Leon’s heart at this moment.

She tightened her arms slightly and lowered her head to kiss Leon’s forehead. “Baby, no matter what you’re thinking about that makes you feel uneasy, I hope you can believe Mother will never abandon you again. No matter what happens, I’ll take you with me.”

Vivian’s tone was soft but firm. It took a few seconds for Leon to reply, “Mom, thank you.” Thank you for being willing to accept me.

Vivian smiled. There’s a saying that goes, a mother doesn’t think her son is ugly, and a son doesn’t think his family is poor. “You’re a piece of flesh that fell from my body. We should have the most intimate relationship in the world, don’t you think?”

That’s right! Knowing that he was a part of his Mother’s body gave him a certain sense of security.

Leon raised his head slightly and looked at Vivian’s gentle eyes. He felt a strange sense of security and nodded hard.

Perhaps it was true that Mother and son were connected. Vivian could feel that Leon’s mood had become calm. She ruffled Leon’s soft hair and pulled him to the coffee table in the living room.

Vivian picked up an apple with a toothpick and handed it to Leon. She ate a piece herself. “Eat quickly. You’re still in the growing stage. You have to get enough nutrition!”

Leon didn’t like to eat fruit, but he still took the toothpick and did as he was told.

Vivian accidentally saw the camera on the TV cabinet, which was bought to take photos of Keeley secretly.

She suddenly had a good idea. “Baby, Mommy will take you to the amusement park. We can take some photos while we’re there.”

Every child’s favorite place was probably an amusement park. Vivian did not have the chance to do so when she was young, but Leon still had time.

Leon’s eyes lit up when he heard that he could stay with Vivian, but he still asked rationally, “Don’t you have to work today?”

Vivian planned to shorten the conversation with Jeffrey. Anyway, they had already called each other for urgent matters. Today, they were just briefly discussing the progress of the work. She would be back the day after tomorrow, and they could talk face-to-face about any issues that were not urgent.

Vivian briefly explained her work arrangements to Leon. “Let’s first deal with work as it is. No matter how important it is, it’s not as important as my son!”

Seeing how much Vivian valued him, a joyful smile appeared on Leon’s face.
