Chapter 178
“It’s mommy yeah!” Isaac said pointing to the Cheng Lydia on the screen who was anxiously seeking to find someone at every turn.
“Well, it’s mommy.” Shen Ron smiled slightly and reappraised the little one in his arms.
He just said his last name was Shen and he was over two years old, and when you look closely, the little guy’s eyebrows really do have a bit of him in them.
He didn’t know what was going on with everything, but he wanted to believe that the baby was his!
“Daddy, just take Isaac to mommy, she’s going to be mad when she finds out Isaac is running around.” Isaac finally realized he was doing it wrong.
“Okay, let’s go home first, then I’ll go get mommy back, okay?” Shen Ron stroked his head, the smile on his face even more doting than before.
“Good.” Isaac replied.
Shen Ron led Isaac out of the playground and into his Bentley car.
On the way, Isaac said in a happy tone, “Dad, why haven’t you been home to see me and Mom for so long?”
Shen Ron wrapped his arms around him and smiled slightly, “I’m sorry, Daddy was wrong, Daddy promises never to leave you and Mommy again, okay?”
Tom glanced at the duo in the rearview mirror, thinking to himself that the youngest had become more and more abnormal since he had his heart replaced, and now he was actually abnormal enough to casually hug a child home at a playground and have people call him dad, not afraid of being arrested as a human trafficker.
“So will Daddy take me to the playground later too?” Isaac asked.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
Shen Ron nodded, “Of course.”
“It’s still Dad.” Isaac said with a grin.
“What? Mom won’t take you?”
“Mom didn’t like me going there, and it was only after Cindy pleaded for me that Mom took me there.”
“Maybe … mommy just doesn’t want to see someone she doesn’t want to see.” Shen Ron pinched the tip of his little nose, “Mommy didn’t mean not to take you.”
“Who’s the one person Mom doesn’t want to see?”
“Dad.”
“Not at all.” Isaac shook his head, “Mom misses Dad so much, she even cried looking at his picture the other day.”
Shen Ron’s heart ached. Cheng Lydia was crying with his photo? Really?
Kids can’t lie, can they?
Back at The Shen Family mansion, Shen Ron carried Isaac out of the car.
Isaac surveyed the beautiful in long building in front of him and asked in confusion, “Dad, where is this?”
“This is our home.” Shen Ron smiled.
“Really? Then why have I never arrived?”
“Aren’t we there now? And Isaac’s going to be living here from now on, with Mom and Dad.”
“Really?” Isaac said with a look of excitement.
“Of course it’s true.”
Isaac cheered and danced around, “That’s great, I can finally live with my mom and dad, and in a big house too!”
Looking at his happy little figure, Shen Ron smiled gratefully.
He never dared to expect Cheng Lydia to come back to him, but he never expected Cheng Lydia to just show up out of nowhere and bring him back such a surprise.
It seems that his life is, well, not so unfortunate!
Old Mrs. Shen, who had just woken up from her nap, heard the door open, looked over at Zhang Jane who walked in and asked, “Why do I think I heard a child’s voice?”
Zhang Jane was the one who came in to tell the old madam about this, and for a moment she didn’t know whether to be happy or sad, and went to the old madam and said, “Old madam, it was the young master who picked up a little boy from somewhere, and the young master even asked the little boy to call him his father.”
The old lady was stunned, then sighed slightly and said, “As long as the young master likes it, it’s fine to pick up a child and raise it, it’s not like The Shen Family can’t afford to raise it anyway.”
Zhang Jane smiled and nodded, “Yes, all these years Shen Mansion has been cold and quiet, picking up a child back can also liven things up, maybe the eldest young master’s mood can follow suit.”
“Hmm.” The old woman nodded.
“And I see that little doll is really pretty looking, just as cute and lovable as the eldest young master was when he was little.” Zhang Jane said with a smile as she helped the old lady out of bed.
“Is that so? It’s really as cute as the youngest was when he was a kid.”
“Yes, the old lady will like it when she sees it.”
“Then I’d really like to go out and have a look.” The old woman was already a little impatient, and got out of bed and headed for the bedroom door.
As soon as the old lady came out of the bedroom, she saw Shen Ron full of smiles talking to the little boy in his arms, and the little boy in his arms was really pretty and cute looking. With his big eyes, pink skin and delicate features, he really didn’t lose out to Shen Ron back then.
“I heard from Zhang Jane that you picked up a beautiful little boy, I kind of didn’t believe it, but it’s true, look how happy you are.” The old lady smiled as she walked over to the two men.
As soon as Isaac saw the old lady, he immediately called out politely, “Hello, Grandma.”
The old woman corrected with a smile, “Wrong, if you call him Dad, then you’ll have to call me Grandma.” She pointed a Shen Ron.
“Hello grandma.” Isaac dutifully changed his tone.
“That’s a good boy.” The older woman stroked Isaac’s little head and turned to Shen Ron, “Really going to keep him in the house?”
“Hmm.” Shen Ron smiled, “Grandma would have loved him.”
“Like it, of course I do.” If the boy could make Shen Ron that happy, she would like it even if she didn’t like it anymore.
For the past three years, Shen Ron had barely smiled, especially when he was as happy as he was today. It hurt her heart as a grandmother to watch.
“Here, give Grandma a hug.” The old woman reached out and went to hug Isaac.
“Grandma, Isaac is a bit heavy handed, you’d better not hold him.” Shen Ron placed Isaac on the couch and said, “Let Isaac sit here and play with you.”
“Fine.” The older woman walked over and sat down next to Isaac.
Zhang Jane immediately went into the kitchen to find something for Isaac to eat, and after looking around she couldn’t find anything suitable for small children, and came out smiling, “There are no children in the house, there are no snacks for anything yet, the youngest should have called the family in advance so that I could go and prepare it.”
“That’s okay, I’ll take Isaac out to get it myself later.” Shen Ron doted on Isaac, “Is that okay, little friend Isaac.”
“Yeah, thanks Dad.”
“Ugh, that’s quite polite.” The old lady said with a cheerful face.
The more you look at this kid, the more you like him, I’m sure!
It was getting dark and the visitors in the fairgrounds were fading away.
Cheng Lydia stood under an empty Ferris wheel and broke down in tears calling out, “Isaac! Where are you, Isaac …!”
Finally a staff member who was clearing the floor came up to her and apologetically said, “Miss, the ‘City of Joy’ will be closing soon, can you please come back tomorrow and play again?”
Cheng Lydia turned her head and yelled at the staff, “My son is gone! I want to find my son!”
Stunned, the staff member asked, “Is it missing from here?”
“It’s …”
“But miss, we’ve just cleared every corner of the playground, and there are no small children in sight.”
“But my son just can’t be found, don’t you playgrounds have to be responsible?” Cheng Lydia’s tone was aggravated, and she took the staff member’s hand and cried and begged, “Please help me find my child, okay? He must have gotten lost playing in some corner, please …”
“Miss, we’ve really cleaned up very carefully.” The staff was in a hurry to get home from work and was already a bit impatient, “Maybe the kids are tired of playing and went out long ago, why don’t you wait long enough and go to the nearby police station and call the police to help you find it.”
“It won’t. …”
“Come on, miss, we really need to close.” The staff member said as he reached for her arm.
“No … I’m not leaving!” Cheng Lydia cried and struggled, “I won’t leave until I find the baby, I won’t leave until I die!”
