I Only Want You novel Chapter 1046

"Coo-coo..."

Arvis sat on a small bench, and his stomach was rumbling. He reached out his hand to press against his belly and couldn't help swallowing.

"Arvis, are you hungry?" The woman who was mending the fish net next to Arvis stopped and asked Arvis gently.

Arvis hesitated for a second and immediately removed his hand from his belly, shaking his head, "Mom, I'm not hungry."

The woman naturally knew that he was hungry, but...

She felt a little bitter in heart, but she forced a smile, "Wait for a while. When grandpa and grandma come back, we can have dinner, okay?"

"Okay." Arvis nodded and then touched the bracelet in his pocket. He was not sure whether he should take it out or not, but he didn't know how to explain.

Although he felt that he was not wrong, and the uncle also said so, but... what if his mom thought he was wrong?

"Arvis, do you have anything to say to me?"

"No." Arvis shook his head, "Nothing." He might as well say it when he made up his mind.

Just as the woman wanted to say something, she heard a sound coming from the gate. She got up and said to Arvis, "Grandpa and grandma are back."

Arvis also got up and ran to the hall with his short legs, "Grandpa! Grandma!"

As soon as Drorit Chang heard Arvis's soft voice, she replied quickly, "Hey! Arvis! My good boy!"

The woman went forward and looked at Rhory He, who was old and had white hair. His face darkened, so she asked with concern, "Godfather, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"

"Alas!" Drorit, who was holding Arvis, sighed, "We didn't harvest today. We only caught a few small fishes and shrimps, which was a waste of time. I went to the shore to pick him up just now. Just as the boat was about to land, it touched the shore and the head of it was broken. The boat is too old. He is so sad about it."

The woman pursed her lips, "Can we mend it?"

Rhory said with a dejected face, "It's easy to mend it. After all, our boat is small and it's not made of expensive materials. But it seems that it can't be used for a long time. Alas! If we can't catch fish, our lives will be more difficult from now on."

The more the woman listened, the guiltier she felt, "It's all my fault. I can't help you with anything and I saddle you."

Drorit took the woman's arm, "Alaina, don't say like this. It was not easy for you to survive and you are lucky. Besides, you don't make any trouble for us. You do housework and cook for us everyday, don't you?"

Alaina wanted to say something more, but Drorit said hurriedly, "Alright, let's eat. Your godfather is hungry."

Suppressing the complicated emotions in her heart, Alaina put the dishes on the table. There were not many dishes, and they planted the vegetables by themselves. The only meat dish was the fish that hadn't been sold yesterday.

Rhory poured himself a glass of wine as usual. He would drink the wine for a while in the past, but he drank it up in two gulps that day.

Drorit knew that he was unhappy in heart, but she said, "Slow down. You haven't eaten much yet. Be careful and not hurt your stomach."
