Enna Clark really didn’t know what to do. What could she do?
Her mind was blank, and her ears were ringing incessantly. She muttered, “I don’t know….”
“Maybe you should come clean with Young Master Lawrence. Just tell him you know.” Olivia Lewis suggested.
Enna shook her head, then reminded herself she was on the phone, not having a face-to-face chat. She whispered, “If I ask him, his first reaction will definitely be to have people monitor me, not give me an explanation.”
“Damn! So domineering?” Olivia was in a dilemma, “Then what should we do?”
“I don’t know…” Enna really didn’t know. Her mind was too chaotic, so chaotic that she couldn’t think of anything.
She never thought that one day Baron Lawrence would flirt with another woman.
And even less did she think that day would come so quickly, so suddenly.
So suddenly she was taken by surprise.
Whatever Olivia said to console her afterward, she didn’t take in. Her mind was full of the news Olivia mentioned, playing on repeat on the big screen.
She put down the phone absent-mindedly, and walked back to the living room.
In the living room, Bob was happily eating a huge strawberry milkshake without a care in the world. Seeing her, he greeted her enthusiastically, “Mummy, Uncle Harris said this was made with the strawberries we picked. It’s so yummy, come and eat.”
“I don’t feel like eating…” she had no appetite.
Bobby, naturally sensitive, noticed her pale face. Worried, he put down his beloved milkshake, jumped off his chair, stood on his tiptoes, hugged her waist and looked up at her, “Mummy, what’s wrong? Are you feeling bad?”
“You’re smiling so ugly, you must be!” he huffed in anger, “Did the dubious man bully you again?”
Just now they had taken a family photo, but in the blink of an eye, the dubious man was bullying his mummy, this was too mean!
Enna finally looked at him, pinching his chubby face, she bent down to comfort him, “No, he had to go work. I’m just too tired from playing this afternoon, I don’t feel like having ice cream.”
“Oh…” Tobias didn’t seem to believe her, but he still went along with it, “Then, I’ll get you a glass of water.”
With that, he let go of Enna, and ran off to get water.
In a moment, he was back, holding the glass of water steady, “Mummy, here’s the water.”
Fearing he would fall, Enna hurriedly took the glass. Under his expectant gaze, she reluctantly took a sip.
“How is it, feeling cooler?”
“Mmm, much cooler, thank you my darling.”
Tobias blushed at the praise, turned his head away and mumbled, “I’m a man, taking care of women is my job.”
“Pfft.” He was a man? He was barely even five feet tall.
Being laughed at by his mom, Tobias stamped his foot, loudly protesting, “I am a man indeed, Enna, do you have any objections?”
His indignant tone mirrored that of someone.
Thinking of Baron Lawrence, her eyes dimmed again, and her mood, which had just improved a bit, was once again weighed down by heaviness.
Tobias noticed her listless expression, he pursed his lips, went over to take her hand and pulled her towards the sofa, “Uncle Harris said there are Boonie Bears tapes in the living room, mummy, let’s watch Boonie Bears together. Whenever I’m upset, watching Boonie Bears always cheers me up.”
He got Enna settled on the sofa, then ran to the front, very attentive, “How many episodes do you want to watch? It’s your call today.”
