Nora looked very calm in the office and said in a calm tone. She told Derek exactly what she thought in her mind, but after returning to the Design Department, she could not calm down when she was alone.
The story that Derek told her echoed in her head over and over again. Five years had passed. It was a memory that belonged to her past. Although she was not touched much, she was still felt complexed.
After she thought for a while, Derek and Easton were the only figures left in her mind.
Derek went straight to the little guy's room after work. He wouldn't hide Nora's identity from his son.
Obviously, this was a blessing to him, but not to Easton, at least not now.
The little guy was shocked and then thought of something. He frowned and looked at Derek suspiciously.
"I don't believe it. I've seen pictures of mommy. It doesn't look like Nora. Dad, it's wrong to lie to child."
He raised his eyebrows, "When your mother disappeared five years ago, she had an accident. Not only did she lose her memory, but her face was also injured. She had plastic surgery, so she looked different from the picture five years ago."
He found out what happened after the investigation.
"I did a genetic comparison between the two of you in two hospitals in the country and one foreign institution, and these three institutions all gave positive results. It's undoubtedly that she's your biological mother, Meredith."
The little guy looked at his father and made sure that Derek wasn't lying to him. His small mouth shriveled and his bean-sized tears slid down without warning.
The next second.
"Crying..." Easton burst into tears, looking very sad.
Derek sighed, sat down, picked up his son, put him on his lap, and rubbed his little head to comfort him.
"Why are you crying? Haven't you always wanted your mother? Now that we found your mother, you should be happy. Your mom is back."
Easton was crying so hard that he hiccupped. He didn't pay attention to what he said and shouted, "But my girlfriend is gone."
Derek, "..."
His face turned gloomy immediately. He didn't expect that this kid was crying for this. He had the urge to throw him down the window.
Suppressing his anger, he threw him onto the bed, stood up, looked down at the little guy, and frowned, "Shut up. Stop crying."
As a result, he cried even louder. Not only that, he simply lay on the bed and kept rolling back and forth.
Derek narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Easton, I think you are missing the feeling of my hand slapping on your ass."
Under the warning and threat, the little guy could only give in and pout, feeling very aggrieved.
His face was red, his big eyes were still teary, and he looked listless. He sniffed and waved his little hand, "Go out. I want to be alone and mourn my lost love."
Derek, "..." This little bastard.
He took a deep breath and picked him up, "Don't talk nonsense. She's your mother. You're not allowed to call her by her name from now on. Do you hear me?"
Easton's face was grim, and his eyes were full of awkward emotions. The little guy was so embarrassed in his heart but pretended to be calm on the surface. He was in a complicated mood. He was happy, but at the same time, he felt a little ashamed of his previous behavior of treating his mother as his girlfriend.
"Well, Nora... What was her reaction when she found out?"
When he didn't know who Nora was, it was easy for him to call her mother. Now that he knew, the little guy was too shy to call.
