Raina North fuming and akimbo, gritted her teeth: "Casper, North!"
Casper North shrank his neck: "Mommy, only fools don’t make money. Do you want your dear son to become a fool?"
Seeing Raina North’s face slightly calm, Casper North hurriedly massaged her shoulders and legs, acting with great diligence and said nicely: "Mommy, look, now the groceries are so expensive, the prices are so high, raising kids costs even more, and now we have Bobby, family expenses are even higher, right? Surely we can’t let Bobby live a difficult life with us?"
"Of course not," said Raina North.
"Bingo, I thought just like Mommy. So, I cleverly decided to pinch out a bit from between my teeth. Sell to those gourmet lovers, they satisfy their cravings, we make money, it’s a win-win, Mommy, don’t you think?"
Raina North looked at Casper North’s flattering little face, feeling a bit of a headache, really not knowing this kid just seems to have fallen into a money pit.
At this moment, the door was knocked again.
The mother and son’s actions paused, silently exchanged a glance, and in the next second, Casper North jumped up, darted into the cabinet, and didn’t forget to organize the clothes more naturally to make himself look more hidden.
Raina North swiftly tidied up the room like a whirlwind, ensuring no traces were left before going to open the door.
There was no one outside the door.
Looking down, she saw a little bean.
Baby Hawthorne wearing Casper’s pajamas, hugging a pillow, with a little face flushed, said softly: "Mama, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"You want to sleep with me?"
"Uh-huh." Baby Hawthorne nodded, blinking big eyes: "Can I?"
Raina North noticed the little guy’s fingers twisted together, those bright big eyes filled with nervousness and longing.
He was very afraid of being rejected.
Raina North suddenly felt very heartbroken.
Raina North stepped aside at the door: "Come in."
Baby Hawthorne was very well-behaved, after entering the room, he proactively arranged the pillow, crawled onto the bed, and didn’t forget to save half a place for Raina North.
"Sweetie, you go ahead and sleep. Mama will go freshen up."
Baby Hawthorne nodded.
Raina North reminded him with a few words and then took pajamas to the bathroom for a bath.
Baby Hawthorne lay quietly in bed at first, then climbed out of bed after a while.
First, he walked around the room, not missing a corner, yet found nothing.
Baby Hawthorne furrowed his little brows, finger touching his chin, pondered for a while, then without hesitation walked to the cabinet with short strides.
The cabinet door was opened.
At that moment, Casper North hidden inside stopped breathing.
He fiercely hugged his handsome self, the thought drifted past his mind, ruined!
He’s about to be discovered.
He’s about to be packed away by his dad.
He’s about to be forced to separate from the beloved Mommy.
It sounds like a human tragedy.
At the critical moment, a sweet voice rang——
"Bobby, haven’t you slept?"
"Mama!" Baby Hawthorne upon seeing Raina North ignored everything, leaped into Raina North’s arms like a young bird returning home: "Mama, I missed you so much."
Raina North couldn’t help but laugh: "Mama just took a bath."
"I still missed you." Baby Hawthorne with an adorable face said very earnestly: "A day apart feels like three years. So calculating, it’s been a long time. I miss Mama."
