Chapter 280: Everyone Wants to Do Well (2)
"Mom, let me do it." Axel didn’t want to let go of Bryan Hawkins’ hand, so he stood up and spoke to Emily Hill.
"Is this...is this... a reconciliation?" Emily Hill never expected such a series of surprises. She looked at Carolline Ruiz who was blushing and staring at Bryan Hawkins.
How could he be like this, had she agreed to anything? Yet he just arbitrarily started calling her mom.
When Carolline Ruiz didn’t say a word, Bryan Hawkins suddenly felt a bit embarrassed. Had he misinterpreted the situation again? He thought that Carolline Ruiz had accepted his hug just now, which meant she had accepted something more. Or had nothing actually changed?
"Alright, isn’t this obvious? You all should go to bed early, your mom and I are going to bed first." Instead, it was Henry Ruiz who stood up and dispelled the awkwardness.
Emily Hill joyfully followed Henry Ruiz back to their room. Only then did the heavy stone in her heart finally land.
From now on when they go back to the Ruiz Family mansion, bringing Bryan Hawkins with them, there would be nothing to worry about anymore.
Carolline Ruiz changed her shoes, and without paying further attention to the father and son in the living room, walked back to her room. She locked the door and then lay on the bed, tossing and turning for a long time before she finally fell asleep. However, she knew that despite the unease on her face, her heart was secretly filled with joy.
After Bryan Hawkins put Axel to bed, he didn’t try to see Carolline Ruiz again. Firstly, because he was worried that Axel might have another nightmare, and secondly, because Carolline Ruiz had locked the door the moment she entered her room, making her intentions very clear.
However, he slept quite soundly holding his son.
