Chapter 857 I’ll Protect You When I Grow Up

“That is not it.” Irvin shook his head. “It is just that it has been tough on Mommy and Daddy. You have been apart for so many years in order to protect Alexia and I. I am sure you have missed each other a lot all these years.”

When Elise saw the sincerity in Irvin’s eyes, her own eyes started to turn red, and she unconsciously brought her hands up to hold his face as she took a good look at the boy.

People often talked about how daughters were mothers’ treasure, and that was why Elise was all the more grateful to have such a thoughtful son.

It seemed that God still treated her well after all. “Mommy.” Upset, Irvin held her back and stated firmly, “Don’t worry, Mommy. I will work hard so that I can protect you and Daddy when I grow up. I won’t let you two be apart anymore.”

Narissa looked up at the ceiling and grunted, but she finally crawled over despite how unwilling she was. After pressing the phone to her ear, she sank into the bed again with a thud and muttered, “Hello? Who is this?”

“Rissa? It is me.”

Nancy’s voice instantly gave Narissa a jolt. It felt as thought she had instantly teleported back to the Cuber Residence. Sitting up instinctively again, she opened her eyes and asked, “Ma? What is with the sudden phone call?”
