Bride behind the mask novel (Marguerite) novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424 

Meanwhile, in the living room. 

After a round of house tour, the two little ones were sprawled out on the floor, curiously eyeing the happenings in the dining room. 

Teresa propped her chubby cheeks in her hands, her expression a mixture of confusion and awe. 

“Who would’ve thought,” she mused, “that your dad and my dad are brothers! And your mom and my mom are twins! Their relationships are so complicated!” 

Hayes opened his mouth, eager to respond, but he couldn’t find the words fast enough. Frustrated, he reached for his phone to type out his thoughts. “How can you be so sure that your mom and my mom are twins?” He typed. 

Teresa’s mouth twitched as she replied, “Because they look the same, and they both have the same last name! We’ve talked about this before, even though my mom never mentioned having a twin sister, maybe… they are not that close?” 

As Teresa rambled on, Hayes busied himself with typing on his phone again. But Teresa quickly stopped him, placing her soft hand over his screen, reminding him seriously, “Little Mute, you need to try to throw away the tablet and phone. You can’t type! You must learn to talk. Speaking slowly is okay, alright?” 

Hayes blinked, his eyes flashing with determination. He carefully opened his mouth, and very slowly, spoke out his question, “Can your mom… be my… mom too?” 

Teresa was taken aback by Hayes’ question. But soon, she jumped up from the floor, grabbing Hayes in an excited hug, “Little Mute, did I hear you right? You want my mom to be your mom too?” 

The little boy nodded in Teresa’s arms, muttering softly, “I like… her!” 

Teresa was genuinely surprised. Because she never expected Hayes to like her mom as well! 

Before, she was worried about how Hayes would feel if she went to reveal the truth about her dad. But now, she had no concerns at all! 

Overjoyed, Teresa couldn’t help but ask, “Little Mute, why do you like my mom?” 

لم 

Hayes blinked, caught off guard by Teresa’s question. He didn’t know why he liked Marguerite, he just thought that she was really nice and incredibly kind, and being her child would surely be a blessing, right? 

Hayes pushed away from Teresa, meeting her gaze with a serious and sincere question, “Teresa… are you happy?” 

Teresa nodded enthusiastically, “Of course I am! My mom is the best mom in the world!” 

Hearing Teresa praise Marguerite so highly made Hayes envious. If only he had a mom like Marguerite from the beginning, he’d be as happy as Teresa. 

Feeling a bit upset, Hayes was comforted by Teresa who held his arm tightly, urging him, “If we can get your dad and my mom together, then you can be my mom’s son! We’re living together now, it’s the perfect opportunity.”
