Chapter 160
Heaning her child’s innocent voice, Thalassa’s panicky mood was instantly soothed.
In a flash, she felt helpless and confused. Hastily wiping away her tears and straightening up, she pasted a smile on her face, heading to the bedside, trying to sound as gentle as possible, “Atticus, how come you’re up so early?”
Atticus Everhart, with his diamond bright eyes, was looking at Thalassa. Seeing her reddened eyes and the tip of her nose also red, it was clear she had been crying.
It tugged at Atticus heartstrings.
He extended his chubby hand, placed it on Thalassa’s face, and tenderly stroked her cheek, whispering. “Mom, did someone pick on
you?”
Just woken up, his hand was warm, felt like cotton, comforting and soothing.
Thalassa felt like her heart would melt under his warm and intelligent gaze.
With a smile playing at the comers of her mouth, she said, “No, I’m Superman. Who could bully me?”
Concern filled Atticus‘ face, like a little adult, “Mom, you’re not Superman. You can get hurt and need protection. It would be great if we could find Dad. Dad could protect you.”
Last time, when Hertha Kensington took Atticus and Dorian to the police station, seeing Thalassa locked up there, Atticus felt like his heart was being pricked with needles.
He only blamed himself for being too young and powerless to protect Thalassa..
But dad was an adult. If they could find dad, he could protect Thalassa.
Ever since then, Atticus was even more determined to find his dad.
Hearing this, Thalassa’s smile froze, a bitter taste spreading in her heart, like candy slowly dissolving in hot water.
She sat on the bed, holding Atticus in her arms, letting him sit sideways on her thigh, with her arm around him.
