Chapter 1931 Questioning Yuvan
An hour later, Yuvan used the excuse of going to the filming site to leave Imperial Garden. The butler took the opportunity to have someone install hidden cameras in Zaydenâs room. With those surveillance cameras, he could easily watch Yuvanâs every move.
âI donât care who you are. If you dare cause trouble in Mr. Seetâs territory, Iâll make sure you wonât have a place to hide.â When school was over in the evening, the two children went to the filming site to shoot a scene with Yuvan.
Zayden and Yuvan performed extremely well this time. Zayden did not forget his lines and Yuvan did not change his. The entire scene was filmed in just a single take. The whole filming crew and even Sheila praised Zayden, saying that he had improved a lot and was amazing.
Zayden lifted his head happily. âOf course Iâm amazing. I put in so much effort practicing last night.â âZayden, if you can perform well like you did today in the future, Iâll reward you with a surprise,â Sheila said.
âWhat surprise?â
âItâs a secret. As long as you work hard, I promise youâll definitely like your surprise.â âDonât worry, Mommy! Iâll work hard!â
Zayden studied Yuvan curiously as they returned to Imperial Garden. Is he a bad guy like the wolf in the story? But I donât think he looks like a bad guy.
âWhy are you staring at me like that? Is there something on my face?â
Zayden shook his head in response. Suddenly, Joy asked, âWhy did you want my mommy to become your mommy back then?â
The question was too sudden. Yuvan pondered before saying, âBecause Iâm an orphan. Iâve always longed for a motherâs love.â âNo. Iâm sure you have another reason for it!â Determination was written all over Joyâs face.
Yuvan was surprised by her words. Why would she suddenly say that? Does she know something?
âThen what do you think the reason is?â he asked calmly. Noticing the change in his expression, Joy said confidently, âYou want to hurt my mommy!â
Yuvanâs pupils constricted slightly. He did not expect the little girl before him to have wisdom that was more advanced for her age.
âWhy would I want to hurt your mommy?â he continued asking with an innocent look.
Truth be told, Joy was only making guesses. As for the reason, she gave it a thought and said, âBecause⦠Because you have a grudge against my mommy!â
A trace of nervousness flashed through Yuvanâs eyes. Nonetheless, he pretended to be composed and said, âOh? If I have a grudge, Iâll definitely take my revenge. Why would I want to make her my mother?â
Joy was stunned and was unable to come up with an answer for that.
Zayden blinked his big, glassy eyes. âThatâs right. Why would he acknowledge an enemy as his mother?â
Yuvan stretched out his hand and patted Zaydenâs head. âExactly. I donât have any grudges against Ms. Lane. Not only that, but Iâm also grateful to her. Thatâs why I wanted to make her my mother.â
âGrateful? Why is that?â Joy questioned.
Yuvan thought for a second before answering, âI heard Ms. Lane saved my life once when I was younger.â
âWho told you that? Didnât you say youâre an orphan?â
âI wasnât an orphan when I was born. I heard that my family contracted a sickness when I was just a few months old. My parents didnât get treated properly. The lady who adopted me said that I was lucky to have met Ms. Lane. She was the one who saved me with acupuncture. The lady reminded me to thank Ms. Lane properly when I get the chance.â
âReally? Whoâs the lady who adopted you? Iâll try asking Mommy to see if she remembers the incident.â
âShe⦠She passed away long ago. Iâm afraid your mommy doesnât remember her name. After all, she saves so many people every year. Itâs impossible for her to remember every name.â
She passed away? Does that mean I canât look into this matter anymore?
Joy fixed her bright eyes on Yuvan. After asking the series of questions, she believed there was something wrong with Yuvan.
She did not have high hopes for Yuvan to repay her motherâs kindness. Instead, she only hoped that things were not like what her father said about bringing a wolf into the house.
