The Ex-Wife's Triumph novel Chapter 213

Coming out after the vaccination, Seven still had undried tears at the corners of his eyes, his rims red and puffy.

He buried his fair, tender face into Lucy’s shoulder. He mumbled with childish pout, "Mama, want to play."

Lucy immediately softened her voice, responding gently:

"Okay. Mommy is on vacation now, so I'll play with Seven every day."

Hearing this, Seven nodded his small head. His little arms immediately tightened around Lucy’s neck. Most of his grievance dissipated, and a sweet smile slowly curled on his lips.

A moment later, he rubbed against Lucy’s collar again. "Mama, I want milk."

"We don't have any right now. We'll buy some later," Lucy coaxed softly.

Seven suddenly lifted his little face, his eyes brightening as he earnestly reminded her, "There is some in the car."

The nanny couldn't help but laugh, chiming in, "He's right, there is! He stuffed it into my bag himself when we left. What a smart cookie!"

Seven didn't understand what "smart cookie" meant. He just widened his round eyes, looking at the nanny in confusion.

The nanny immediately understood and explained with a smile, "I'm saying our Seven is very clever!"

Seven seemed to half-understand, but he sweetly popped out a phrase in German: "Danke schön. (Thank you.)"

The nanny was used to his little interactions and practicedly replied, "Bitte schön. (You're welcome.)"
