COMMENT 

Chapter 488 

Theodore had seen Cynthia before and liked this aum who looked so much like his mom. Hearing the familiar voice, he lifted his head from Isabella’s arms. 

Just then, Cynthia removed the ice pack from her face. The little one saw the bruise around her eye and immediately pouted, burrowing back into Isabella’s arms again. 

“Uh, mama, scared.” Theodore usually could only say reduplicated words, but now, out of fear, he managed to say a three–word sentence. 

Isabella was surprised but also felt a bit guilty 

She patiently explained to Theodore, Theo, you’ve met this her before. She is Mommy’s older sister, your aunt” 

Regardless of whether Theodore understood. Isabella explained her relationship with Cynthia to him. 

At first, Theodore was still scared, but eventually, he relaxed. Though he wasn’t as close to Cynthia, he was no longer frightened. 

Cynthia couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Can he understand what you’re saying?” 

“I think so. Anyway, I’ve been communicating with him like this since he was little. Sooner or later, he will understand.” replied Isabella, Hearing this, Cynthia nodded in agreement. 

They freshened up in their room, planning to go downstairs for breakfast. 

Since Cynthia didn’t bring a change of clothes, Isabella fetched an unworn set from her closet. 

Holding the clothes, Cynthia felt a surge of emotion. So this is what it feels like to have a sister. Someone who cares, who thinks about you, and shares things with you, she thought 

Cynthia suddenly thought that it would have been wonderful if they had grown up together from the beginning. 

Soon, the three of them went downstairs. At this time, George and Layla had already prepared breakfast. 

Isabella had initially hired a housekeeper, but since George and Layla moved in, they insisted on dismissing the housekeeper, claiming they were still young and not accustomed to being served. 

Isabella knew the elderly couple were accustomed to living frugally on the border and didn’t want to burden her. She also didn’t want them to feel stressed, so she agreed to their request. 

George and Layla waited for everyone to be seated before sitting down to eat together. 

At the dining table, they immediately inquired about Cynthia’s eye. Isabella had to repeat the things Theodore had done. 

Although Theodore didn’t mean it, the two elders didn’t excuse the child. “Theo, look at your aunt’s beautiful face. You kicked her and made her look like this. Have you apologized to her?” 

Theodore was eating and immediately looked up upon hearing his name, staring at everyone with wide eyes. No one was sure whether he understood what had been said or not 

Cynthia’s heart melted at Theodore’s adorable expression. She quickly waved her hand and said, “I know you didn’t do it on purpose. Go ahead and finish your meal. Theo 

After that, Theodore really did lower his head and focus on eating. 

The elders weren’t really expecting an apology from the child. They were using the incident to gradually guide him. So, this matter wasn’t brought up again 

Just in the middle of breakfast, Liam suddenly arrived. 

Only then did Cynthia suddenly remember that she had been so focused on spending time with Isabella last night that she had completely forgotten about Liam 

Sering Liam suddenly appear, she felt 

“Have 

you eaten breakfast? Cynthia asked with concern as she stood up and helped Liam sit down to her right. 

habella aho looked over, ready to serve another serving of food. 

Liam waved his hand and said calmly, I’ve already eaten. I just came by to check in on you” 

Chapter 489 

Liam understood that Cynthia had left him alone last night and was happy that she had found her family. 

However, last night was the first time they had slept apart since getting married, except for business trips. 

Liam was not used to it at all, but he refrained from calling to avoid disturbing the two sisters. 

Now, his gaze was fixed on Cynthia’s face. But the more he acted this way, the more uncomfortable Cynthia became 

She had deliberately seated him to her right so he wouldn’t notice her left eye easily, but the bruise was too prominent to escape his attention, 

Sure enough, Liam’s face soon darkened. He reached out and turned Cynthia’s face towards him. Seeing the obvious bruise around her left eye, his demeanor instantly became cold. What happened?” 

George and Layla, who were not very worldly and had never interacted with someone of Liam’s caliber, felt a bit intimidated by his sudden coldness. 

Cynthia hurriedly took Liam’s arm and whispered, “Take it easy. That little guy accidentally kicked me in the eye while he was sleeping.” 

“What?” Liam was incredulous. 

Since seeing the bruise on Cynthia’s face, he had considered many possibilities in his mind. He even suspected Isabella, but he never imagined it was caused by a one–year–old kid 

Judging by the severity of the bruise on Cynthia’s face, it was evident that considerable force had been exerted. Could a child this stall have that much strength? Liam thought
