You're The Best Medicine For Me novel Chapter 105

After Bryan got into the car with the two children, he didn’t immediately drive away. He accompanied the two children in the back seat, his gaze focused on both children.

Jacob Thomas was very sensitive. When he saw how Bryan was staring at him, he knew what he was thinking.

Jacob deliberately turned his face towards the window.

Bryan shook his head helplessly and looked at Emma Thomas. He rested his palm on his daughter’s head and stroking it gently.

“Emma, please tell daddy how you were bullied at school,” Bryan asked.

Jacob quickly turned his head to look at him.

And Emma turned her head to stare at Jacob.

“Brother won’t let me talk about it.”

He could see that Jacob didn’t want Emma to ever mention this matter again. But he forgot that he was still a child himself.

“You both are strong and well-behaved in front of mummy, and I’m happy for that and your mummy. But in front of your daddy, you can always be a 3-year-old child.”

Jacob’s eyes once again reddened when he heard this. But he was still holding it back.

He clenched his hands secretly and remained silent.

However, Emma pressed her lips, wanting to cry, “Daddy, it’s that true? We can always rely on daddy?”

“Yes, I am your father. You can trust me.” Bryan reached out and hugged Emma onto his lap. He gently wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, “Tell daddy what you guys have been holding back?”

Emma flung herself into Bryan’s arms, clutching his clothes tightly with both hands, and started wailing.

“Daddy, I don’t like going to kindergarten. But brother said that if we don’t go to kindergarten, mummy will have to worry about both of us. And we can’t let mummy see us as a burden. So even I dislike it a lot, I must go to kindergarten. But I really don’t like it.” the child was sniveling so much; she was having a hard time breathing properly. Also, her whole body was trembling as well.

Because they were single-parent children, both had tacitly agreed not to inform Shirley whenever there was a parent-child activity.

And all the children in their class felt that both were unfavoured by their parents and snatched things from them from time to time.

Emma said incoherently, “Jacob said that mummy was working very hard, so we have to be well behaved and not make mummy too tired. Otherwise, mummy’s heart will hurt, and she might die from it one day.”

The more Emma spoke, the more she cried. She became more aggrieved and uncomfortable.

She flung herself into Bryan’s arm in fear. Her hands were clinging to Bryan’s neck, a handful of snot and tears fell onto his black shirt.

Bryan hugged Emma tightly in distress. The feeling of desperation was like his heart was torn apart. The pain was unbearable.

“Cry as much as you want, dear. Daddy’s here. If there’s anything, you couldn’t tell mummy, just come and tell me. Daddy will protect you from now on. And no one will dare to bully you again.” Bryan looked up at Jacob and saw him sitting in the corner, shrugging his shoulders and keeping his face to the car window.

Bryan’s heart constricted as he freed a hand to clasp Jacob’s shoulder and turned him around.

He had already burst into tears.

Bryan’s heart sank, and immediately picked him up as well and placed him on his other lap, cradling him into his arms.

“You little dumdum, if you’re feeling distressed, just cry, don’t hold it back.” When Bryan said this, Jacob, who had been holding back, finally let loose and cried in an instant.

His tiny body cuddled into Bryan’s arms, crying as his whole body trembled.

He was not afraid of anything, but he was scared that he would hear that her mother died one day.
