Billionaire’s Reborn Baby

It was a quadrangle in City Q.

After Bernice returned, Emma kept staying in her room. Deon almost didn’t see her all day long. To be exact, he did not see either Emma or her mom.

Every day he would have someone send bird’s nests or supper to impress them. He wished they wouldn’t forget him. After all, he was Bernice’s husband and Emma’s father.

However, Bernice was too determined. Ever since she returned, she had locked herself in the room and seen no one except Emma. Deon and his men were at their wit’s end.

Since Deon was upset, his men had to pretend being in a bad mood. Otherwise, Deon would definitely punish them.

However, Bernice inside her room was not as melancholy as they had imagined.

Bernice was still child-like. After crying for a while with Emma in her arms, she lay on the bed beside Emma and chatted with her about what happened and who she encountered in the past few years. They laughed incessantly when they talked about something funny.

“After these years, I finally understood what you said back then.” Bernice sighed. “No wonder the poets all advocate freedom. I was silly to be infatuated with the life a confined bird.”

Emma only pursed her lips and smiled.

“I’ve decided. I’ll follow you wherever you go. I’ll rent an apartment near your place and hang out with my peers. That’ll be good.” Bernice said with a smile. “Aging is a terrible thing. Ever since you left, I’ve got a lot of gray hair.”

Emma tilted her head and saw that Bernice had many more gray hairs.

“Are you having a hard time these years?” Bernice caressed Emma’s palm and said, “Your hand callouses.”

“Not really.” Emma said.

“How did you get your money?” Bernice asked.

Emma said, “I brought quite a lot with me when I left. I didn’t spend much. I took good jobs along the way.”

“When I came back, I heard that you were in trouble. I never found a chance to take care of you. I’m so glad you weren’t injured. I was always afraid to see you on the news one day. I was worried that you weren’t running away from home but instead kidnapped by someone. But no one called for ransom. Your father couldn’t find you. I was so angry and worried that I couldn’t sleep well every day….”

“I was afraid that Dad would blame you, so I didn’t dare to tell you.”
