A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Mary pursed her lips and said, "No matter what you say, she is still liable for Valery's cold, so it is her duty to stay and take care of Valery."

Zac's eyes flashed angrily again. "Mommy, I'm not expecting you to be fair to everyone, but please, at least don't lose the ability to tell right from wrong." With that, he lifted Essie up and carried her out of the room.

"Zac!" Mary was outraged. She thought of what Elizabeth said about how those women who wanted to outlive their husbands all possessed the charm to bewitch their husbands. Now, her son was in such a situation. It was horrible.

Zac came back to their bedroom and laid Essie on the bed. His eyes were full of love.

"You idiot, don't do such a silly thing again. What if you also catch a cold?"

"I'm fine. I can take some medicine if I catch a cold." She smiled lightly, "Don't you care about that child? I had to protect him for you."

"I care about you more. You need to take care of yourself properly." His voice was like a gentle night breeze, and his gaze was so tender that the tenderness almost seemed to flow from his eyes.

Hearing Zac's words, Essie felt like a droplet of water had fallen on the peaceful lake that was her heart and caused numerous ripples.
