She lowered her voice and smashed her head into Adriana’s arms, choking back sobs.
“Helen …”
At this moment, all of Adriana’s pretense disappeared, squatting down to embrace Helen into her arms, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Mommy is sorry for you. I’m sorry …”
A thousand words came to my lips, but I couldn’t say them, only a ‘sorry’ to express the guilt in my heart.
Squeak-
The kitchen door opens.
The two looked back outside, only to see Luis with tears on his cheeks, watching the two of them shaking their shoulders incessantly and crying.
“Luis? You …”
Adriana doesn’t know what to say.
Apparently, Luis had heard their conversation.
“Liars, you’re all liars, liars!”
Luis was originally playing with his Ipad, but he was bored playing alone and wanted to ask Helen to play with him. Who knew that he would hear the conversation between the two of them.
He turned around and ran.
Adriana’s heart was astonished and she immediately got up and went after her.
Luis is over eight years old, very tall and a fast runner.
Adriana ran from the kitchen with oil stains on the floor and almost fell when her feet slipped. When she stumbled and ran out, she found Luis already out of the living room.
“Luis?”
She shouted at Luis and chased him out, suddenly her pace was halted and she stood in the doorway without response.
“Where is Luis mom … daddy?”
Helen chased after her, and just as she shouted the word ‘Mom’, she saw Peter standing in the corridor, with a crying Luis in his arms.
She immediately silenced her voice, not intending to betray her mommy.
“You, what brings you here?”
Adriana forced her composure and looked down at Helen, wiping the tears from her cheeks without a word, not wanting Peter to find out the end.
“Why are you bullying Luis?”
Peter had a cold face, a cold face and cold eyes.
“Oooh … daddy …”
“Luis!”
Luis was about to say something when Helen immediately went over and took his hand, scolding him, “Luis, you don’t listen at all in Lawson’s house, and you’re aggravated because Lawson said one thing about you? It’s clearly your fault.”
Gently shook his hand and blinked imperceptibly toward him.
Being a dragon and phoenix, the two children would have had some heart to heart.
With this little hint, Luis immediately understood Helen’s meaning.
Turned back to Adriana without speaking.
“Luis, what’s wrong? Did he hit you?” Peter wrinkled his brow, his face particularly ugly.
“Daddy, what are you talking about? It’s not true at all.”
Helen pointed to Adriana, “Lawson is very nice to us, not only playing with us, but also cooking for us.”
“Then what are you crying about?”
Peter’s eyebrows knitted together into a Chuan, in deep disbelief.
“I … us …” Helen was momentarily speechless, not knowing how to answer.
“We just miss Mommy, oooh … Today is the anniversary of Mommy’s death …”
Luis turned back to look at Adriana with tears in his eyes as he spoke, “Helen and I miss her so much, oooh …”
The child has grown taller, a few meters, plus the vegetarian electronics play more contact, smart and precocious, talk is also a drop in the bucket.
“Lawson was so good to us and our godmother that I couldn’t stop crying when I saw there was a picture of mommy from before.”
Helen chimed in.
After some explanation, Peter was half convinced.
Eyes deep as if a bottomless pit, staring at people, the eyes seem to be able to suck the heart to make people feel afraid.
Adriana was flabbergasted by that look, so she said, “They are still young, and sad days are easily touched.”
“Where’s Anne?”
Peter asked.
“She just went out for something.”
Hearing Adriana’s words, Peter’s face chilled a few more times, “Since she’s not here, I’ll just lead them back.”
“No!”
“I’m not going back.”
The two children immediately retorted.
Peter was a little confused.
Luis cried and rushed out, now saying how to go back with him and disagree?
“Daddy, my sister and I like Lawson and Godmother so much, we want to stay here for a while, okay?” Luis was the first to speak.
With this statement, it means that Adriana and Helen have been forgiven.
Helen immediately followed and echoed: “I also do not want to go back. Although that home is very big and envied by many people, it is cold and clear without a little bit of warmth of home. Luis and I like our godmother’s house, although it is small but very cozy.”
“You guys like it here?”
Peter asked.
The two children nodded their heads.
Peter looked at the wall inside the corridor and wrote Lin Feng apartment, a familiar place, a familiar name, Peter suddenly remembered that Adriana also lived here back then.
All memory of the present vanished from his mind, if not from the video Hank found of him out and about with Adriana.
Probably in his lifetime he could never have known that Adriana had lived here.
The heart is mixed, a sour feeling rushes to the heart.
“Is daddy okay?”
“Isn’t Grandma going on a trip to Europe? Auntie is not at home, so let’s stay here with Godmother, okay?”
The two children said one thing to you and one thing to me.
Adriana would like to refuse, but his current status is Anne’s ‘boyfriend’, not to mention the inner heart can not let go of the two children, naturally can not stop.
More than anything, I hope they will stay.
“Anne loves them, let them stay for a while.” She said.
“Yeah daddy.”
“Daddy, you’re quick to agree.”
Luis and Helen tugged on his left and right hands and kept on being cute.
Peter was tempted to refuse, but thought that Helen had a point. His mother and Sloane were going on a trip abroad, and if he left the two children at home there would be only a nanny left to keep them company.
Hesitate again and again …
He finally nodded his head in agreement.
“Good. Just stay one …”
“One month!”
Peter wanted to say a week, and the two kids yelled heartily about a month.
“Yay, daddy you’re too good.”
“Daddy’s great.”
The two children cheered and ran straight into the house without waiting for Peter to say anything, closing the door behind them.
Inside, Luis blocked Helen’s face, a gloomy face, “Why did you hide it from me? Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Shhh~”
Helen is cautious and careful, pulling Luis to the room, closed the door and whispered: “Mommy is alive who does not know, I also have an uncle told me. I didn’t believe it at first, but only after I met her today was I sure. I’m not lying to you, I just never say anything I’m not sure about.”
“Really?”
“Forget it if you don’t believe it.”
“Okay, okay, of course I believe you, you are my sister how can I not believe you.” Luis brushed away the tears on his cheeks and hummed with his mouth, “Too much, in the future if you dare to lie to me again you will be finished.”
“You’re the one who’s too stupid.”
“Helen you shut up, I’m your brother!”
“Not at all, there must have been a mistake at first, I am your sister only, I am more mature than you.”
“I’m still taller than you.”
“Is IQ measured by height? You don’t even do as well in school as I do.”
“The total score is only two points more than me, OK?!”
