Chapter 916 

Larissa brought Freddy into the car. The lights in the car were t, perfectly highlighting the disheveled state the little boy was in. 

Larissa cleaned the dirt on Freddy’s face with wet wipes and ran her fingers through his messy hair to make it neat and tidy. 

“Did you get into a fight with your dad?” she asked gently. 

Freddy still wasn’t responding to her. 

Recalling what Allen said over the phone–that Freddy seemed to have signs of depression. 

Larissa felt her heart tighten. “Freddy, talk to me, please? You can tell me whatever you want.” She was starting to sound anxious. 

Freddy looked at her, his gaze was blank and lifeless. 

After ending the call with Allen, Lewis returned to his car and cast a glance at the two people sitting in the backseat. “His dad will be here soon. He told us to wait for him.” 

Hearing that, Freddy became restless all of a sudden and frantically tried to open the locked car door. When he realized he couldn’t open. it, he fiercely knocked his arm against the window, trying to use this method to run away from the car.

Luckily, there was barely anyone around the kindergarten at this hour. Otherwise, such a chaotic scene was only going to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. 

“Don’t be scared, Freddy. We won’t hurt you.” Larissa comforted, gently patting his head. 

However, this method wasn’t working on the little boy. 

Freddy’s agitation showed no less. He even sank his teeth into Larissa’s hand that was caressing him. If Lewis hadn’t pried open his mouth in time, he probably would have bitten a piece of Larissa’s flesh off. 

When Larissa withdrew her hand, she couldn’t stop tears from coursing down her cheeks. The bite marks on the back of her palm were so 

deep that blood was slowly oozing out of them. 

“There are some masks in the storage compartment at the front. Put one on him,” Lewis said. 

Larissa reached out and found the masks that Lewis had bought in advance because of the pandemic. She immediately wore one on 

Freddy. Since it was an adult mask, it was naturally too big for him. Even though his entire lace was almost covered by the mask, it could
