In the morning, Nina Morrison wakes up and finds herself sleeping on the bed sofa. Lucien Gray lies next to her, his arms around her waist tightly.
Nina Morrison pats her head in frustration. She was so tired last night. She just wants to lie down on the bed for a while. As a result, she sleeps till now.
Nina Morrison lifts her eyes to look at Nelson next to her and sees that he is sleeping soundly. His long lashes cover his eyes. He is well-behaved and adorable.
Nina Morrison watches Nelson’s peaceful sleeping face. She couldn’t help crying again.
Is he really her child? She has cried so many times, and been despaired so many times. Is it true that her baby doesn’t leave, but secretly grows up into a beautiful angel?
Lucien Gray also wakes up. He sees Nina Morrison weeping, his lips rest on her eyes, “Why are you crying? The doctor said yesterday that Nelson is fine.”
Nina Morrison nods and asks Lucien Gray uneasily, “When will the DNA test comes out? Is Nelson really my son?”
“The report will be available the day after tomorrow.” Lucien Gray looks from Nina Morrison’s eyes to Nelson’s. The more he looks, the more they look like each other.
Don’t need paternity test. He could be sure that Nina is Nelson’s mother.
They two are talking quietly and Nelson wakes up. His little legs kick off, and then he open his eyes, looking around helplessly. Staying still for a few seconds, Nelson lets out a piercing scream.
Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray almost pounce on him, “Nelson, baby, what’s wrong?”
Nelson’s large, dark, crystalline eyes become dim. There is a big piece of yellow spot on his retina. He clutches the hands of Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray and cries out in alarm, “Daddy, why don’t you turn on the light? Nelson is afraid of the dark. Will you please turn on the light?”
