Chapter 671 - Gloom
Lexi was a little hurt at his words, "Timothy, are you not liking me?" "No, it's not ......"
The little one's world has limitations in understanding, looking at her with a somewhat anxious gaze, also with uneasiness, as if there are a thousand words to say.
Lexi's heart tightened as she watched, and slowly raised her hand to rub his little face soothingly, "Don't be nervous, I didn't misunderstand you, I just don't understand some of it, you can take your time, okay?" Timothy nodded, the warm little hand gradually turned cold, and I don't know what to think, the little face is just as white and white.
"Timothy?" she scrutinized his expression, who lifted his eyes to look at her.
Kent and Dean finished sharing the cake but found Timothy and Lexi missing, was looking around, Dean tapped him on the shoulder and pointed to a corner, he looked, and soon found the two familiar figures. "Are you guys talking about something?" Kent sat directly beside the pair.
Timothy saw him and immediately buried his face into Lexi's arms like a frightened deer, and stopped saying what he was about to say.
Kent saw the situation with a hurt face, "Timothy, didn't you just have a nice chat with Lexi? How come you're avoiding me now that I'm here?"
He thought back carefully could not help but think that he should not have done anything to make him unhappy......
Lexi glared slyly at the man beside her, "What are you doing over here for good reason?"
"Hey, am I that objectionable to you guys?" Kent had a look of aggravation.
Lexi was about to answer when Timothy had raised his head and whispered, "Uncle is fine......"
It's just that he's not good at it himself.
The little guy is obviously not very old, but he shows a look of worry and trouble that does not match his age, which makes people feel painful.
Lexi hugged his strength tightened a few points, the next second as if to see through his mind blurted out, "Those words you just said, is it because...... worry about me?"
Timothy didn't expect her to guess, and there was a moment of silence, followed by a meek nod.
Kent saw that something was wrong and didn't speak up, just stayed quiet.
"Mom ......"
Timothy bit his lip, seems to recall what a face of pain, Lexi would have liked him not to continue to say, but Timothy is a stubborn face, "In the past, Dad owed money, there are very fierce bad guys to find the door for money will let Mom go to sell blood....... Boom, Lexi's head instantly exploded with the same.
She looked at a child less than five years old in front of her and her heart was full of heartache.
How old is he in the end, but experienced a his age should not have experienced everything......
"Sister......" Timothy's eyes have been playing tears again, "You should not give me the blood in the future, and do not tell others, okay, I am afraid
He was afraid that those bad guys would also focus on Lexi, and Lexi would end up disappearing from his world just like her mother did ......
A child's world is supposed to be innocent and clueless, but he's worried about losing another person who cares about what he cares about.
Lexi's mood was instantly as mixed as a spilled spice box.
She could not say any other words, she also will not say some fancy words to coax him, just silently hugged him tightly with only he could hear the voice promised, "Then I promise you, I will be fine, okay, sister will not sell blood, and will not provoke the wrong people." She would be safe and sound and not let him worry.
Timothy looked over at her and tears suddenly fell from his eyes, "Really?"
"Hmm." She nodded, then laughed easily, "Besides, you mustn't underestimate me oh, I'm much more powerful than you think."
Timothy looked at her confused, Lexi immediately made a strong pose to him than his small arm muscles, "I am a third-degree black belt in taekwondo, ordinary people can not get close!"
Third degree black belt?
Kent heard the real thing, could not help but shiver, looked at the woman beside him also did not forget to look more than a few eyes, he never knew, his own assistant is actually a taekwondo master?
Timothy listened to Lexi's words and seemed to finally let go of his heart.
Lexi laughed easily and patted his little head, "Did you not like talking to the kids before because you were worried about hurting them too?"
"Well ......" Timothy's voice was soft, "I'm a child who brings disaster to people if I talk to them."
He remembered that his father often pointed to his nose in front of him raging that he was a plague, that he should not be born, he should...... die........
Kent looked at the self-loathing on Timothy's face and couldn't help but sink, "I never thought about that when I was your age, I knew I was the kid who wasn't liked by anyone or treated well by anyone, but I wouldn't give up on myself like you did!"
Edward did not dislike him for not being able to do anything? Then he will have to do to him to see, will have to fight him to the end, even if in the end still failed, but he knows that he did what he wanted to do most, but also let those who once looked down on him to speak! Timothy shrugged his little head down again and Lexi gave him a look, "Everyone is different, you can't ask everyone to be like you, besides, your lives are different, Timothy is without his parents......"
Lexi's words immediately stopped halfway through, not knowing whether it was because she sensed what she shouldn't say or because she saw Kent's dark face at the moment.......
Kent laughed coldly, "Lexi, if you think that not having his parents is the reason why he chose to run away from himself, then you must not have experienced a darker side or been exposed to something more cruel!"
His mother was disgusted by Edward's life because she helped Joanna, and finally fell dead without a tombstone, he cried and begged and went on his knees to beg on the street until his mother's body stank, and did not beg for her burial money, and finally until the relevant agencies stepped in to treat his mother's body as garbage and send it to the incinerator!
That life is no better than Timothy's! Even he now at least has people who care about him, while he ......
He got up fiercely and flung his sleeves viciously away without giving the two a second glance.
Timothy suddenly got scared, he saw Kent are warm and gentle, but never seen this cold side of him, small hands tightly tugged Lexi nervous, "sister...... I did not make him unhappy?"
Lexi did not miss the man that the cold light under the gloom and pain, a moment also froze, a long time did not respond......
