“Finally, I can sleep with Mommy again.“
Laying on the bed, Neil hugged his mother’s arm and rubbed his little head against her. “Since we came back, I haven’t been close to you at all. You’re with Nellie every day, and it’s hard for me to even hold you, Mommy.“
Neil’s words made Luna feel slightly guilty. After all, Nellie was her treasure, but so were Neil and Nigel.
She was always worried about Nigel’s illness and Nellie’s safety, but she somehow neglected the smart and obedient Neil.
At that thought, she raised her hand and ruffled his hair. “After your brother’s illness is cured, Mommy will spend every day with the three of you.“
Neil pouted. “Mommy, you mean four.“
Luna paused, smiling helplessly. “Right, four.“
She had to conceive Joshua’s child again to save Nigel.
“You may want to be with us every day, Mommy, but we might not want you to.“ Neil smiled at her cheekily and hugged her arm. “After Nigel recovers, he’ll definitely want to continue being a hacker, learning everything about computers and programming.
As for Nellie, she’ll surely want to work as a jewelry designer. She’ll be very, very busy.“
Luna laughed lightly. “What about you?“
“I don’t know what I want to be in the future yet. If you’re nice to me, Mommy, I might consider helping you raise the kid.“
As she gazed at the boy’s serious expression, Luna’s giggle spilled through her lips.
She raised her hand and ruffled his hair again. “Neil, I’ve never felt worried with you here.“
Even though Neil had made the wrong decision in the past by asking Nellie to reunite with Joshua, she had to admit that Neil was the sibling more capable o f taking care of her and his siblings compared to the eternally quiet Nigel and the somewhat childish and disobedient Nellie.
He was so young yet could take up the responsibility or caring for the entire family.
She did not know who he got his strong sense of responsibility from, but she knew it was not from Joshua.
Joshua…
