After that, Zion looked at Nathan's direction. Mango was a bit shocked.
"You are boy, a man's look shouldn't concern you. Let's go."
Mango picked up Zion.
Seeing his mother obviously not willing to talk to him, Zion was a little upset.
He stretched out his little arms to wrap them around Mango's neck and said coquettishly, "I just want to find a man for you."
"Kid, don't worry about adults. Later I will ask Auntie Blu take you to her kindergarten. You go to study first. With her watching you, I can rest assured."
Mango held Zion in her arms and headed out, but her hands were slightly trembling.
Why did Zion concern about Nathaniel's look?
Although they looked very similar to each other, It still concerned her that, Zion liked Nathaniel at first sight.
This was her son, the one she had given birth to with her life, and it had nothing to do with Nathaniel Ye!
She would never allow Nathaniel to take the child away from her.
Mango looked uncompromising, yet she did notice Zion's worried and distressed sight. Although he was young, Zion knew when his mom woke up from nightmares every night. Back then, Zion had no idea what Nathaniel Ye had done to Mango. Since his mother wouldn't tell, Zion pretend that he knew nothing. However, he already had a plan to bring justice to his mother.
The mother and son walked out of the airport with their own thoughts.
Mango stopped a taxi. The car took them to the residence of Rainie Blu.
Five years had passed. She still lived in the old place, and the key was also in the old spot.
With familiarity, Mango found the key, opened the door, and walked in with Zion.
This is a three-bedroom house. It's not a big space, but the decorations look very welcoming.
Zion glanced at it briefly and asked in a low voice, "Mom, where is your room?"
"The second one on the right. I used to live in that room."
Mango's lips curled up slightly.
She and Rainie were college classmates and good friends. When she was bullied by her stepmother, Rainie always took her in. This was her home.
Zion dragged the suitcase and entered Mango's old room.
Here was a photo of Mango when she was young, but Zion didn't know it. Ever since he can remember, Mango had current appearance. But now Mango had tearful eyes when seeing the photo. That face looked less pretty than now, but it was full of happiness and youth. Now that face was gone.
Mango stretched out her hand and gently stroked the photo she had taken before. She felt very uncomfortable.
