Sonny rarely experienced such moments of emotional release.

Tessa tried to comfort Sonny, but seeing that he continued to cry incessantly, the irritation in her eyes became increasingly apparent.
Finally, she shouted impatiently, “Stop crying!”
Perhaps because the sound was somewhat sharp, Sonny was startled, stopped crying, and looked at Tessa.
His large, tearful eyes were filled with hurt and fear.
Tessa, aware of her problematic attitude, immediately composed herself and looked gently at Sonny. “Sonny, you have been asleep for so long. You must be hungry. Would you like me to take
you to get something to eat?”
“No! You are not my mommy!” Sonny suddenly pried Tessa’s hand open, lifted the quilt, and climbed out of bed.
He ignored Tessa’s calls from behind, ran out of the room to Connor’s study, and tiptoed to open the study door.
Right then, Connor was looking at the data on his computer with a somber expression.
Suddenly, he heard Sonny’s loud cries.
Sonny ran up to stand in front of Connor, grabbed his hand, and sobbed so hard he was out of breath. “Dad… Daddy… I want Mommy… I want… want Mommy…”
Connor hurriedly picked up Sonny and gently patted his back to help him catch his breath. “Did you have a nightmare?”
Sonny kept sobbing. “I… I want my mother…”
Connor rarely saw Sonny like this, but feeling heartache for his son, he could only gently try to comfort him. “It’s okay, boy. I’m here.”
He suppressed his irritation and repeatedly soothed Sonny,
When Tessa ran after Sonny to the study door, that was the scene she saw.
She walked up to Connor and stood in front of him. “Sonny slept all afternoon and may have experienced a nightmare.”

As soon as she spoke, Sonny heard her voice and hugged Connor even more tightly. “I do not want her! I want my mommy! I want my own mommy!”
His face was flushed from crying. After saying these words, he could not help but sob, his chest heaving. He looked extremely pitiful.
Connor’s frown deepened as he wondered, ‘Previously, Sonny was very attached to Tessa and was always talking about wanting her to be his mother. Now that Tessa truly accompanies him. every day, does he miss his own mother instead?‘
He was puzzled when Sonny suddenly began to cough violently.
Within just a few seconds, the little flushed face turned a dark purplish–red from coughing.
Connor’s expression changed; he immediately helped Sonny drink water and patted his back.
After Sonny had slightly recovered, Connor decisively picked him up and stood up.
Tessa hurriedly asked, “Connor, where are you going?”
“Hospital,” Connor said without looking back.
One hour later, Sonny lay asleep on a small hospital bed, an intravenous drip attached to his hand.
Connor and Tessa stood by the hospital bed.
Suddenly, he looked up and asked Tessa, “What exactly happened?”
Tessa promptly explained, “I have no idea. Sonny came home in the afternoon and immediately locked himself in his room. After I used the spare key to open the door, I found him sleeping on the carpet. I carried him to the bed to sleep. When he woke up, he suddenly started crying for his mother.”
At this point in the discussion, Tessa could not help but feel angry.
She fumed, ‘I thought that bitch Xylia’s son was brought under my control, but unexpectedly, within just a few days, Sonny is clamoring to see his biological mother. What does that make
me?‘
However, for now, she could only seethe inwardly. After all, she had not yet officially married Connor, and she still had to support that brat.
Connor sighed. “No matter what, he is Xylia’s biological child.”
How could the bond between mother and child be severed so easily?

Tessa’s hands hung at her sides; she clenched them tightly into fists, looked at Connor, and demanded, “Connor, are you still missing Xylia?”
Connor’s expression froze instantly.
Tessa became even angrier. “Have you forgotten how she treated you? Not only did she cheat, but she also failed to attend your grandfather’s funeral. By forcing you to divorce, she abandoned both you and Sonny.”
“I know that,” Connor replied in a cold voice.
Seeing Tessa with reddened eyes and tears welling up in her eyes, his heart softened again.
He gently held Tessa’s hand and comforted her in a soft voice, “I will be on a business trip to Norhill next week, so I appreciate your help in taking care of Sonny.”
Tessa worriedly asked, “How long will you be away?”
“Approximately half a month,” Connor replied.
An alarm sounded in Tessa’s mind. ‘No! Half a month is far too long; if Connor were to flirt with another woman again during this period, wouldn’t everything I’ve worked so hard for and is about to achieve become a joke?‘
After a moment’s thought, she said, “Coincidentally, I also have an event in Norhill in a few days. I’ll go with you.”
Connor frowned, uneasy about Sonny being home alone.
Tessa hurriedly added, “Let’s bring Sonny with us and treat this as a family trip to Norhill.”
Connor felt an inexplicable emotional aversion when he heard the phrase ‘family‘.
Tessa shook Connor’s arm, acting like a spoiled child.
Whenever she did that, Connor would yield. “Fine.”
Tessa seized the opportunity to throw herself into his arms. “Thank you, Connor.”
Connor still had not grown accustomed to Tessa throwing herself into his arms. He couldn’t figure out why he had yet to truly feel happy while she was clearly the woman he had loved for years.
One week later, Xylia and Zayn had finalized the renovation plan for the design studio and were starting the renovation in accordance with Zayn’s suggestions.
Xylia had lunch at home and was about to have a look at the studio when she suddenly
