“Mom!” Lucius yelled across the distance.

Looking up, Selena saw Delilah and Lucius standing by the entrance of the supermarket.

“Hey, you’re both here,” Selena yelled back excitedly.

Before, Selena wanted to take Lucius as her godson. In the beginning, he had also called her his godmother, but later on, they realized that he didn’t have a biological mother anyway. Hence, he switched to calling her “mom” instead.

Delilah was initially worried that it would affect Selena’s future, especially her marriage. However, Selena didn’t seem to mind at all.

“Whoa, Selena. You already have a son at such a young age?” A newly appointed supervisor, Freya Brooks, gave her the side-eye and deliberately passed a remark.

“Mom, who was that? Did she bully you?” Lucius stared after the other woman with a solemn expression.

“No. I’m fine. How was school today, Lucius? Were you a good boy?” Selena gently caressed the boy’s head.

That day was Lucius’ first day in school. Because of work, Selena couldn’t send him to school.

“It was great, Mom. Don’t worry. I’m your son, after all!” Lucius patted his chest in a manly way.

“Hey, have you heard? It turns out that Selena has a son! It’s true. And she’s not even married yet. My God, how can there be such a woman working in our supermarket? She has no self-respect whatsoever. What an embarrassment…”
