Chapter 1804: Chapter 1804

“It’ll take about a year and a half to heal, but he said I should be able to carry light things in a week.

After a month, I should be able to do simple things like typing and writing,” said Grace.

“That’s good.” Lina breathed a sigh of relief.

Grace said goodbye to Kyla before heading to the He family’s house.

Lina sat in the store and said to Kyla, “Grace was eager to meet her son as soon as she got discharged, but Mason…”

Kyla said, “He’s still young and unfamiliar with Grace. Maybe they’ll get closer after some time. I saw how that boy is attached to his sister. That means he’ll accept anyone who is truly kind to him.”

“I hope so,” said Lina.

The two chatted, and Nelson soon returned. Nelson Corbyn greeted Lina politely when he saw her.

“Why are your clothes so dirty? Did you fall?” asked Kyla.

“I accidentally fell,” said Nelson Corbyn.

“Your pants are torn.” Lina saw a hole in the knee of Nelson’s pants, which she thought was caused by the fall.

“Go change your pants. I’ll mend them,” said Kyla.

Nelson Corbyn responded and went to the room at the back to change his pants.

Lina looked at Nelson Corbyn’s tiny figure and frowned slightly. Then, she looked again at Kyla, who was busy with her store. Linal walked to the room at the back.

Nelson Corbyn was about to take off his pants. His face instantly turned red when he saw Lina.

Before he could speak, Lina took a step forward and asked, “Did you get into a fight?”

Nelson Corbyn’s expression stiffened when she asked that.

“Don’t lie. Your Aunt Lina used to fight almost every day when I was little and made my parents worry a lot. You’ve always been a cautious child. If you had really fallen, you wouldn’t have ended up like this.

Here, here, and here… These are all signs of friction.” Lina pointed to a few spots on Nelson Corbyn’s clothes. She also grabbed Nelson’s pants legs and pulled them up, revealing several bruises on his calves.

Lina asked, “What’s going on?” Nelson was not a troublemaker. On the contrary, he was a quiet child who would not cause trouble. “Is someone bullying you at school?”

Nelson trembled slightly. Lina was right.

“Why are they bullying you?” asked Lina.

Nelson hesitated a little before saying, “Because I wear hearing aids. They say people like me should go to school for disabled people. They also said Mommy must have done something bad to give birth to a disabled child.”

Lina’s nose instantly felt sore when she heard this. She straightened up. “Who said this? I’ll talk to their parents!”

“Aunt Lina!” Nelson yanked Lina. “Don’t… Don’t go look for their parents. I don’t want Mommy to know about this.”

He knew his hearing disability was his mother’s sore spot. Every time she saw his hearing aid, his mother’s eyes would flash with guilt.

His mother kept saying he could not hear because she had taken fever medicine when she was pregnant.

However, he did not blame his mother at all. He thought his mother was the best! He did not want to see her sad.

He would not have fought today if those guys had not talked about his mother.
