Chapter 264 

Matthew could tell that something was wrong with Aiden today. Although he was smiling when he saw him, his eyes were filled with sadness. 

It was not a good choice to let Aiden be stuck in his emotions. Aiden finished. playing the song and was about to turn to the next page when he was stopped by Matthew. 

“Do you want to try building blocks?” He gestured to the 

Corner. It was the new toy set that he had bought earlier. He had yet to give it to Aiden. 

As expected, Aiden’s eyes lit up. He was still hesitating if he should. However, Matthew directly held his little hand and walked over. Even Valerie was a little. surprised. She was shocked that Aiden became so close to Matthew so easily. She was also shocked that Matthew and Aiden were so patient. 

She thought, ‘Will he be so patient when we have a baby in the future?‘ 

This strange thought stunned Valerie. She quickly shook her head and joined them. What she needed to do now was to make Aiden happy. 

The three of them were having a lot of fun Aiden was indeed much happier with someone accompanying him. As the night grew darker, Aiden yawned and Valerie ruffled his hair. “Ar 

you tired? Why don’t you take a shower and sleep?” 

Aiden immediately stood up. “Okay, Valerie, but I can wash myself. I’m already an adult!” 

“Really? I am surprised!” Valerie was amused. After Aiden took a shower, Valerie patiently hugged him and told him a story, slowly coaxing him to sleep. 

eyes in her arms. Just as she was about to heave a sigh of relief, Aiden’s body suddenly trembled: Then, tears welled up from the corners of his eyes. 

Valerie finally felt relieved when she saw the little guy close his e 

At first, he sobbed softly, but then he cried so hard that he couldn’t stop. “Mommy, I miss Mommy…” 

Valerie could not help but be stunned. Although Aiden was smiling, in the dead of the night, he could not help but think of Ashley. 

“Aiden, don’t cry, don’t cry. I am here.” Valerie quickly hugged him tightly.

Aiden nodded and held onto Valerie’s clothes tightly. “Valerie, they said that Mommy won’t be coming back. They also said that Mommy will find me a new father. Am I without a mother?” 

Valerie wanted to say that Ashley was not worthy of being a mother after doing that kind of thing. 

Julian had always been honest and cautious. He worked himself to death all day long just to earn money to support Ashley. She despised Julian for being unromantic. If she had said that she wanted a divorce earlier, things would not have become like this. If the couple wanted a divorce, the child would suffer the 

most. 

But even though Ashley had done something wrong to this family, to Aiden, she was still his mother. It was normal for children to miss their mothers. They didn’t do anything wrong. 

Valerie could not tell Aiden the truth. She could only hug him in her arms and tell a white lie. “Aiden, be good. I believe that your mother loves you. Even if she is separated from you, she will still be your mother. No matter what happens in the future, she will still have you in her heart!” 

“Really?” Aiden looked up with teary eyes. 

“Of course it’s true!” Valerie comforted him over and over again and sang a lullaby to Aiden. After a long time, Aiden finally fell asleep sobbing softly. 

Valerie could not help but sigh when she heard the sound of steady breathing. She looked at the sleeping Alen and sighed helplessly. 

For the entire night, Valerie was worried that Aiden would wake up again. In the end, she could not sleep well. When she woke up the next morning, it was already seven in the morning. 

Seeing that Aiden was fast asleep, Valerie quickly rubbed her eyes and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. 

Coincidentally, Matthew had also woken up early. When he saw the dark circles under Valerie’s eyes, he frowned slightly. “Did Aiden disturb you?” 

Valerie shook her head. “Aiden is very obedient and sensible. I was just worried.” 

Not only was she worried about Aiden, but she was also worried about Julian. She

felt that with Ashley’s personality, the divorce might not go smoothly. 

She had never liked to bring negative emotions to others. She immediately smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about this. Mr. Grant, what do you want to eat? It’s quite early today. Let me cook. Besides, Aiden is here. I can’t let him only cat takeout. 

with me.” 

Matthew raised his eyebrows. 

He thought, ‘She couldn’t bear to let Aiden cat takeaway. Why was she willing to let me eat takeaway with her before?‘ 

Coincidentally, there was still the leftover our from the last time he made. spaghetti in the cupboard. There was also meat and other ingredients in the fridge. Valerie brought out the ingredients and made pancakes. She also made some soup. 

When Aiden pushed open the door in a daze and came out, he saw Valerie making pancakes in the kitchen. Matthew was cooking soup at the side. The two of them were busy chatting. 

Aiden wanted to say good morning, but when he opened his mouth, his voice was stuck in his throat. He suddenly remembered that he had seen his parents interact with each other like this a long time ago. They were preparing food together, chatting and laughing happily. 

However, at some point in time, his mother’s temper became more and more irritable. Every day, she would put her hands on her hips and scold others. She would scold his father for being useless and a good–for–nothing. She would scold him for being stupid and not as smart as other children. At that time, his mother was like an angry lion.
