Chapter 441



.

Nora stretched lazily. After stretching her body, she let out a deep breath and opened her eyes. She had thought she would open her eyes to see the ceiling, but she hadn’t expected to see three heads staring at her.

The two little ones were looking at her out of the corner of their eyes.

Pete asked quietly, “Is Mommy finally awake?”

“Shh…” Cherry made a shushing gesture and lowered her voice. “Mom may be rolling over. Brother, don’t wake Mom up. Mom’s really scary when she’s awake. One time, she even hit me!”.

Pete immediately covered his mouth.

The two little ones opened their eyes in fear and covered their mouths tightly. They were afraid to make another noise and anger Nora, who had just woken up.

Nora: “…”

She rolled her eyes at Cherry and said in a hoarse voice that sounded like she had just woken up, “Cherry, don’t panic in here, when did I ever hit you?”

Cherry giggled and jumped into Nora’s arms. “Mommy, Cherry has missed you so much- You don’t know how worried Cherry was the last two days when you were sleeping. She couldn’t sleep well and she couldn’t eat well!”

Pete was speechless-he wondered who had been carefree and playing a live game for two days!

However, he didn’t expose his sister. Nora understood her daughter very well and said only, “Is that so, why do I vaguely remember hearing someone playing merrily?”

Cherry blinked her big grape-like eyes. She didn’t flinch at all at being exposed. “Gee, Mommy, I haven’t felt like doing anything else these past two days. All I can do is play games. Even playing games wasn’t as much fun as usual. I could only turn my worry about Mommy into motivation and beat people at the game.”

Pete was speechless – he felt he had learned something from her!

Nora didn’t argue with Cherry.

The little girl was worried because she wasn’t waking up, but it wasn’t as over the top as she had said.

Nora wasn’t worried about her daughter’s outgoing personality. She turned her head to look at Pete. Indeed, she saw a hint of deep concern in her son’s eyes. Pete, who was not good with words, was genuinely concerned about Nora’s body. Even in his sleep, he seemed to have felt the little one gently climb into bed a few times. He even touched her nose and was probably checking to see if she was still breathing.

She smiled, “Pete, have you missed Mommy?”

Pete blushed and lowered his head. “Mm-hm.”

“Yeah, did you miss me or not?”

Nora sat up and teased him.

Pete wasn’t good at sweet-talking. His face turned even redder as he stuttered and couldn’t speak.

Nora merely teased him. “Gee, it looks like my son didn’t miss his mother! I’m so sad, why don’t I sleep for a few more days?”

Pete panicked and was quick to shout, “No, I, I, I…I missed you.”

Nora laughed and hugged him, “I missed you too. I even dreamed about you.”

Pete was stunned. “Dreamed about what?”

Nora: “?????”

She was stunned too. She had always had a lot of messed up dreams when she slept. It was as if her brain wouldn’t stop working while she slept.

When she woke up, she had already forgotten her dream. How could she still remember what she had dreamed?

But her son was very serious. He couldn’t say he had forgotten, could he?

Nora said a silly thing. “I dreamed that Pete grew up and became cold to Mom after he married a girl. I was so sad, Geez!”.

Pete: “!!!”

Cherry blinked her big eyes to the side and asked, “Mommy, who did Pete marry, did he marry Cherry? Then our family of four can be together forever!”

Nora: “…”

Justin coughed. “Your brother can’t marry you!”

Cherry looked disappointed. “I see~”

However, Pete was quick to say, “Mommy, your dream is too fake. I don’t plan to marry anyone in the future.”

“…”

Seeing his serious expression, Nora was moved.

Justin, who was standing next to her, noticed their affectionate glances and instantly felt a sense of danger. He immediately pulled Pete aside and said, “Why are you staying home if you don’t want to get married? The only one who will be able to walk with you forever will be your partner.”

After saying that, he looked at Nora. Under her coal-black eyes, the mole in her eye glittered.

Nora: “…”

The corners of her lips twitched. It seemed to her that this Hunt Chief was a bit irrational.

Why did he have to compete with a child?

He coughed and lifted the blanket to get out of bed. He noticed that he had put on a comfortable sleeping robe. He hesitated for a moment and asked, “Who changed my clothes?”

She still remembered that, before she passed out, her red dress was covered in blood.

However, now she felt quite fresh….

At this thought, Cherry raised her hand. “Daddy changed it for you! Besides, I helped you shower!”

Although it was Lily who showered her on the operating table on the first day, after returning home, Justin helped her every day.

Nora: “…”

Was this man the one who had bathed her when she was asleep? Heat slowly rose to her cheeks. She looked around, staring blankly. “Where is Lily?” she asked.

When she had been abroad, she had given herself to Lily wholeheartedly after falling asleep!

After returning to the country, had Lily started to slack off?

At that moment, Lily, who had just slept for six hours after taking care of Quentin, sneezed violently.

Then she rubbed her nose.

Oh, my goodness! She was really looking forward to going abroad. She was so busy after returning to the country that she hardly had any free time.

Noticing Nora’s shyness, Justin was quick to say, “Don’t worry. I haven’t looked at anything I shouldn’t have.”

Nora: “?”

The corners of her lips twitched. “Do you think I’m a child? How did you help me take a shower if you didn’t look?”

Justin was silent for a moment before he coughed. “I covered my eyes and…. I washed you.”

Nora’s face turned even redder. So he touched her whole body?

She grabbed her phone and headed for the bathroom. “Oh, I’m going to take a shower. Mr. Hunt, please go downstairs and have someone fix me something to eat.”

Justin looked at his groggy back and smiled. “Okay. You can take your time with the shower. After all, when I bathed you, I didn’t dare scrub anything. I only washed you…briefly.”

“…” Nora staggered and rushed into the bathroom in a panic.

Justin smiled and went downstairs.

Into the bathroom.

Nora took a few deep breaths before looking at her phone. She planned to see if anything had happened during the two days she’d been unconscious.
