President's Substitute Wife

I got to know two other servants besides Erin.

One was Briana in her fifties.

One was Doris in his thirties.

Ming asked Jessop Family for Briana. She was good at cooking, so she cooked at home.

Doris was the child of Briana’s relative. She had no job. We were short of servants so she came.

When I got to know about them, Lester woke up.

He came down the stairs barefoot. When he saw me, his eyes were shining, “Mom!”

He ran to me shouting. He climbed onto the sofa and then onto my leg. He held my neck and shouted, “Mom, you’re back!”

“Yes.” I saw the shallow scar on his face, and my heart ached.

I wanted to ask him what Ming had done to him these days, but Ming was upstairs and may go downstairs at any time. After thinking about it, I asked, “you’ve been with Uncle Jessop these days. Did you give Uncle Jessop any trouble?”

“Of course not!” Lester sat on my leg and shook his calf. He said with a smile, “Uncle Jessop is very kind to me. He bought me a lot of toys and snacks!”

“Really?”

Children didn’t cheat.

When I mentioned Ming, Lester had no fear or hesitation in his eyes.

I knew Ming was really nice to him.

I touched his head gently but I dare not relax.

I hoped Ming could always be so nice to him, but what if one day he changed?

That was what I was worried about.

“Uncle Jessop!” I was holding Lester.

But Lester suddenly jumped off me and ran towards the stairs!
