Chapter 135
Felix was also startled. He lowered his head and fiercely bit onto Bradley’s arm.
Bradley regained his rationale instantly. He released his grip on Esther’s delicate neck as if he had been shocked and avoided her teary eyes. He explained in a hoarse voice, “I didn’t mean to.
Felix looked at the red mark due to Bradley’s choke on Esther’s porcelain-like neck. Tears welled up in his clear eyes as his heart ached. “Mommy, does it hurt?”
Esther felt the hot throbbing pain in her neck, but she softly reassured Felix with a slightly hoarse voice, “Mommy is not hurt.”
“Liar!” Felix looked at the red mark on the fair skin and could not help but shed tears. “It clearly hurts a lot. Daddy is a bad guy!”
Esther reached out and embraced Felix, explaining gently, “Daddy was lost in thought, and when Mommy suddenly appeared, Daddy thought it was a bad person, so he defended himself.
”
Tears rolled down Felix’s little face. “Daddy, is it true?”
Bradley looked at the affectionate scene between Felix and Esther, nodding gently. “Yes.”
“Daddy, you can’t treat Mommy like that anymore. Mommy is Mommy. Mommy isn’t a bad person.”
Bradley replied lightly, “Okay.”
Esther took out a tissue and gently wiped away Felix’s tears from his cheeks, praising softly,” My son is amazing. You know how to protect Mommy now!”
“Of course! I’m a little man!” Felix was immensely proud despite his red eyes.
Esther playfully poked Felix’s nose with her finger and jokingly teased him. “A little man who cries?”
Felix felt no embarrassment at all and cutely said, “When I protect Mommy, I’m a little man. When I’m by Mommy’s side, I’m Mommy’s baby.”
“Let me see if my baby has honey in his mouth.” Esther playfully reached out to play with Felix, and Felix giggled in her embrace, innocent and pure.
It seemed this was the first time Bradley discovered a child’s mischievous and lively side in
Felix.
Before this, Felix had always been proper, speaking softly and never daring to be playful like he was today.
What was this? Could it be that the magic of the bone marrow transplant was so powerful? Powerful enough to change Felix’s mood like that?
“Mommy, it tickles!” Felix squirmed.
Esther was afraid he might fall when trying to dodge her, so she held him tightly in her arms,
Seeing that they were about to tumble from messing around without caring about their
surroundings, Bradley reached out and embraced Esther-the three of them fell to the floor together.
