Chapter 1399 Is Sasha An Idiot
âWendy, are you awake? Iâve brought you fresh vegetables!â the person outside the door shouted.
Even though Sasha was upstairs, she could hear the enthusiasm in the womanâs voice.
She stuck her head out of the window and looked down.
âMrs. Pence, youâre early.â
âHuh? Sasha, when did you come? I didnât see you yesterday.â
Indeed, the person downstairs was none other than Ambrose Penceâs wife, Leah Jesson.
She was rather astonished when she saw Sasha poking her head out of the window.
Sasha beamed at her. âI came last night. Sebastian had to go back to deal with some things, so I
came.â
âI see. You havenât made breakfast yet, have you? Itâs almost eight now. Iâm sure the boyâs hungry. Why
donât you come to my place for breakfast? Iâve made some pelmeni, and I still have some that I havenât
cooked yet.â
Leah enthusiastically invited Sasha and her son for breakfast after hearing Sashaâs explanation.
By then, Sasha had already gone downstairs.
Opening the door, she cast an apologetic smile at the older woman and said, âItâs okay. I can make
breakfast quickly. The boyâs father has left many groceries in the fridge.â
âI seeâ¦â Leah mumbled, disappointment evident in her tone.
In the end, she said nothing else as she handed the vegetables she had brought with her to Sasha
before exchanging a few words and leaving.
Sasha did not dwell on their conversation as she brought the vegetables into the kitchen. Then, she
took out some eggs to make their breakfast.
Around ten in the morning, the mother and son got ready to leave the house.
âIan, are you going with Mr. Pence to the base for your learning?â
âYes, Mommy,â Ian replied with a nod as he packed his bag.
In the past twenty days, the boy had returned to his original state as he started responding to
questions. Even his eyes were bright.
Sasha nodded back at him before packing her things.
Confused, Ian muttered, âMommy?â
âItâs nothing. Letâs go. Mommyâs going to come with you. Iâm bored here, and Iâd like to see my sweetie
work with experiments. I heard that the spacecraft with your microchip is about to launch.â
Sasha was filled with pride when she mentioned the topic, and she was even more thrilled than her
son.
Ian shyly lowered his head in response.
However, he was still overjoyed to hear his mother talk about his experiment and delighted to have her
go with him. With that, the mother and son held hands and took a boat to the base.
âSasha, youâre coming along? Wonât you get seasick?â
To her surprise, she encountered Leah again on the boat.
Sasha froze before answering, âI do, but itâs fine. Iâd like to have a look at the results of the boyâs
research. Mrs. Pence, are you going there too?â
Sasha was curious as to why Leah was on the boat. Although Leah was one of the staff members at
the research institute, she had no right to go to the base. Only the top scientists, as well as the
executives of the institute, were allowed into the place.
Why is Leah allowed entry there?
All of a sudden, Ian, who was beside her, said, âMommy, sheâs there to take care of Mr. Pence.â
Hmm?
Sasha turned to look at her child. Oh. Sheâs there to take care of Ambrose. So sheâs entering the place
as a family member of the staff?
âIndeed. Iâm there to take care of my husband. You have no idea about this, but he was diagnosed with
diabetes a few years ago, so he has to be careful with his diet. Thatâs why Iâm usually by his side,â
Leah explained.
Sasha hummed in acknowledgment. It was important to watch oneâs diet after getting diagnosed with
diabetes.
Hence, everyone boarded the boat. Once Ambrose arrived, the boat began heading toward the base.
Not long after the boat sped off, Ian noticed his mother getting paler and paler. âMommy, are you
okay?â he asked hastily.
Sasha nodded her head and ruffled his hair to reassure him that she was fine.
Unexpectedly, a while later, Leah handed her a cup of ginger tea with a few pieces of lemon inside.
âDrink this, Sasha. This is good for motion sickness. I used to drink this to recover in the past too.â
âIs that so?â
Sasha then took the glass from her.
Ginger tea with lemon was indeed a good remedy as the ginger could keep the cold away. In fact, it
was perfect for her, especially after recovering from radiation exposure.
Thus, Sasha downed it.
Unsurprisingly, her motion sickness was less intense after the drink.
Around twelve in the afternoon, they finally arrived at their destination, and Sasha led her son off the
boat. When she saw the gigantic building in front of her, her jaw dropped.
âMommy?â
âYou must be shocked. Iâll have to confess that I was as shocked as you when I first saw it myself,â
Leah told her with a chuckle when she spotted the wide-eyed look on Sashaâs face.
Sasha let out an awkward laugh.
Arriving at the base, both Sasha and Leah could not go further in, so Ian had to be led into the place by
Ambrose.
