Chapter 68
“So, from now on, let’s talk about anything that’s bothering us. Keeping things inside can easily cause misunderstandings because if you don’t speak up, others may not know what you’re thinking. Over time, if we keep everything to ourselves, it will be difficult to get along with each other. Do you agree, Tavish?”
She raised her hand and tousled Tavish’s hair, exuding a mother’s tenderness that Tavish had never experienced before. He remembered clearly that whenever he wanted a hug, he would be ignored or even pushed away. Over time, he stopped craving his mother’s embrace, but seeing Molly being hugged still stirred a longing in him that he tried to hide.
“Is there anything else you want to ask Mommy?” Nydia asked, looking into his eyes.
“No, nothing.”
“Okay, goodnight.”
She bent down and kissed Tavish on the forehead. Tavish’s eyes widened in disbelief as he watched her. He instinctively clutched the blanket tightly, Mommy, she actually kissed him?NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
So, did Mommy really start to love him? Wasn’t she just pretending? Wasn’t she using him?
Molly came in and saw Tavish looking dazed.
“Brother, brother, what’s wrong with you?”
“Nothing.” He pulled the blanket over his head again but pulled it down, his hand trembling as he touched his forehead. He was afraid he might rub off the spot where Nydia had just kissed him.
“Brother, why were you so angry before? You even ignored Molly and slammed the door so loudly that Molly was scared.”
Molly pouted, complaining about Tavish’s bad behavior earlier.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. I was just too angry at that time. I won’t do it again in the future,” he coaxed his younger sister in a gentle voice.
Molly lay on top of Tavish, muttering, “Brother can’t be so mean to Molly in the future.”
“Okay, I understand. Molly, go to sleep now,” Tavish said, patting her soft hair.
“I want to sleep with brother tonight!” Molly said, then she crawled into the covers and gave Tavish a sweet smile before closing her eyes.
Tavish felt a bit helpless, but he still reached out to help her straighten the covers.
Nydia had returned to her room and was lying on her stomach looking at her phone. She was using another phone to check Weibo to see what the public opinion was today.
She glanced at the trending topics and became energized immediately.
[Update on the Longs Park Child Drowning Incident]
She clicked on it right away. The first trending tweet was a police report about the incident. The report included two suspects’ photos, but they were blurred out.
The report explained clearly what had happened, even detailing the process, but there was no mention of Willette. It only said that the case was still under further investigation.
Another tweet was about Jesse suing the media outlets and marketing accounts that initially spread the news.
[Have those people who previously questioned Jesse apologized yet? These newly released details don’t prove anything. Can they prove that Jesse didn’t wear a green hat? They don’t even have a photo together.]
There were photos of Jesse and Nydia separately, but there was no photo of them together. They didn’t even take wedding photos. However, some netizens put their photos together, and in terms of appearance, they were definitely a very compatible couple.
