Seeing that Joanna was crying, Kerr asked with some concern.
Joanna bit her lip and suppressed the sadness in her heart. She shook her head and touched Kerr's hair, as if to tell him that she was fine.
Nacho stared at Joanna, then looked at Kerr as he said to Joanna blandly, "Is this what you want?"
Joanna's fingertips trembled and she lowered her head. Nacho didn't know if she had heard his words.
Nacho sighed, went forward to touch Kerr's tender face, and said, "Be a good boy and don't make trouble for your mommy. I'll pick you up later with your dad."
"Okay." Kerr nodded obediently.
After Nacho left, Joanna held Kerr in a daze.
She kept thinking about Cedric's lonely expression. Was Cedric feeling sad?
"Mom, dad misses you very much. When will you go home with me?"
Kerr pulled Joanna's hair and looked at her with a smile.
He was been crying just now, but after he saw Joanna, he didn't cry anymore.
Joanna touched Kerr's head affectionately and couldn't say a word. When Kerr saw the scar on Joanna's face, he said sadly, "Mommy, are you injured? Does it hurt?"
He put his tender hand on Joanna's cheek.
Joanna seemed to be stimulated by something and her whole body trembled.
She bit her lip and shook her head at Kerr.
"Dad said that you can't speak now, but it doesn't matter. I can speak for you. Whatever you want to say, I'll help you." Kerr's childish words made Joanna smile.
When Lester came back from class and saw Kerr sitting on the floor and playing, he was a little stunned.
Joanna came out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup in her hand. When she saw Lester coming back, she immediately smiled at him gently.
Lester put down the briefcase in his hand and went forward to help Joanna bring out the dishes.
After serving all the dishes on the table, Joanna picked up Kerr and wanted to feed him.
After eating a few mouthfuls, Kerr frowned and said, "I miss dad."
Joanna looked at Kerr with a lonely expression.
Lester clenched his fists. He pursed his lips and said, "I'll take him back."
Lester did not know why Kerr was here. Perhaps, Kerr was sent here by Cedric.
Kerr was a very cute boy. In the face of such a cute child, there was no way for one to be indifferent. When Joanna heard that Lester was about to send Kerr back, she was a little nervous and held Kerr tightly.
Joanna's behavior made Lester have a complicated feeling.
"Trista." Lester's soft voice made Joanna's hands pause.
She slowly let go of Kerr. When Lester carried Kerr over and was about to take him home, there was a knock on the door.
Lester looked at Joanna in surprise, and Joanna was a little confused.
When Lester opened the door, he saw Nacho standing at the door with a serious face.
"Young Master Gu, are you here to pick up Kerr?" Lester asked Nacho with gentle eyes.
Nacho reached out and held Kerr in his arms. Kerr called him uncle in a crisp voice and wrapped his arms around Nacho's neck tightly.
Nacho touched Kerr's hair and then looked at Joanna.
Being looked at by Nacho like this, Joanna's body trembled a little unconsciously.
"Joanna, Cedric had a car accident and is being rescued in the hospital now."
What? Did Cedric have an car accident?
Nacho's words made Joanna stiff all over.
She opened her eyes wide and looked at Nacho in disbelief. "Can you go to the hospital with me?" Nacho walked to Joanna and said to her in a deep voice.
Joanna looked at Lester as if she was asking him what she should do.
Lester pursed his lips and held Joanna's hand, saying, "Since Young Master Cedric had an accident, we should go to see him."
Hearing Lester's words, Joanna nodded and got into Nacho's car with Lester.
On the way, Nacho explained that Cedric seemed to be drunk and had a car accident on winding road. The specific situation was still not clear yet.
Although Kerr did not quite understand what Nacho was talking about, he heard that Cedric was in danger.
He grabbed Nacho's clothes and said worriedly, "Uncle, how is dad now?"
"He will be fine." Nacho looked at Kerr and said gently.
Kerr looked at Joanna and reached out to make a hugging gesture.
Looking at Kerr like this, there was a faint tenderness in Joanna's eyes.
