Chapter 1029
Fia and Louise’s son reached the entrance to the ward. Conrad spoke with the police, and they
let Fia in.
When Fia saw the little boy whose hand was held by the nurse, she instinctively extended her hand. “Can I take your hand?”
The boy took a step back warily.
The nurse then awkwardly explained, “The boy was still in shock and he doesn’t want anyone. It took us a long while too. But he’s only willing to stay with us because he probably knows that we’re hospital staff and won’t hurt him and his mother.”
Fia quickly nodded. “He’s still too little. For him to go through something like this… It makes my heart ache.”
The nurse also nodded in response. “That’s right. No matter how bad the adults’ relationships are, they shouldn’t drag children into this.”
After they obtained the policeman’s agreement, Fia went in with the nurse and the boy. Meanwhile, Conrad and the policeman stayed outside the room.
“My baby!” When Louise saw her son come in, she struggled to get up, but all she did was make the pain even worse.
Fia quickly took a step forward and held her arm.
“Your son’s here. No one will hurt him.”
Louise looked at Fia before extending her hand to her son.
The boy quickly pulled his hand out of the nurse’s hand and quietly walked over to grab Louise’s.
“It’s alright now. Everything’s going to be okay.” Louise smiled at her son as she held her tears back. She wanted to give the brightest smile she could to him, but she couldn’t help but want to cry.
The boy bit his lips, and tiptoed to help wipe her tears away.
Fia’s eyes became blurry as she saw how the mother and son interacted.
“Mama…”
The nurse smiled. “He finally said something. He didn’t mutter a word since he got to the hospital. We’re all worried sick.”
Fia knew that the nurse was worried that the boy would lock himself away after the traumatic experience and develop some kind of mental disorder.
She looked at the boy. Unlike the nurse, she was still on alert.
After the nurse left, she bent down and asked the boy, “Do you want to eat something?”
The boy refused to look at her and simply held Louise’s hand. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
When Louise saw how her son acted, she calmed down. He didn’t seem to refuse interaction
with others anymore.
She then asked Fia, “Who are you?”
Fia waited before replying in a faint voice, “I’m Fia Lawson.”
Louise frowned. “I know you. Why are you here?”
“I saw the news, so I wanted to visit you,” Fia said after she considered her words. “Are you okay?”
“Did you come for Hank?” Louise asked.
Fia gulped. “I want to know if he’s really the one that hurt you.”
“If I didn’t meet him, I wouldn’t have experienced any of this.” Louise held her hand’s son tightly. “If he trusted me and my son, I wouldn’t have run out with my son in my arms…”
There was pain in her eyes. He wanted her to admit to the crimes his daughter committed. What else could she say?
What was there to be said?
“Only the truth can return you and your son’s innocence!” Fia said as she held Louise’s arm. “I have the same experience as you. I know that you’re very upset and disappointed right now, but you can’t choose to turn a blind eye because of this.”
Louise’s lips trembled. “He did hurt us. I can ignore the harm he caused me, but I can’t forgive him for hurting my son…”
Fia was slightly stunned. It wasn’t hard for her to empathize with how Louise felt.
“The police showed me a clip. When they got there, they saw him choking my son…” Louise’s eyes turned scarlet red. She could never forgive him for that.
When Fia saw the little boy who suddenly froze, she said, “Why don’t we let him go out and play with the nurse for now so that we can talk?”
Louise said, “It’s fine! Since he confessed to his crime, I’ll leave it at that! Consider this compensation to him for getting close to him in the first place!” my
Not exposing him for wanting to protect his daughter was the last thing she could do for him!
“Please leave.” Louise gave Fia a tired smile. “About you and his daughter… There’s nothing I can help you with.”
