Chapter 455
Sweet Subterfuge
Larissaâs heart ached at that, but she forced hersell lo show a slem expression as she sald coldly.
âAster, tell me the truth.â
â Aster opened his mouth and had barely gotten a word out when his tears spilled over, âI want a daddy tooâ¦he sobbed, his voice incoherent, but Larissa heard him, She suddenly remembered that the cartoon she played for him involved an orphan character, who unexpectedly met his biological father before deciding to recognize him as his dad. This was also the movieâs biggest tearâjerking point. Wendy would be bawing wherever she watched it.
Larissa hersell let nothing for it probably due to never experiencing what fatherly love was Ike. She also held no hope of ever finding her biological dad. She was just worried that Aster would think too much after watching it.
However, Aster never had a reaction whenever he watched this back then, so she thought that he was just like her in that he did n not crave the existence of a lather Clearly, the truth proved that she was wrong. His lack of reaction was very likely due to his age at that time, so he did not get it yet.
âWhy do you want a daddy? Isnât having Mommy and Godma with you enough? Larissa asked him, She had been preparing for this moment for five years. She thought that she could be calm, but now that it was actually happening, she still panicked in the end. so much so that she could not even remember the things she had planned to say.
âA A daddy is strong. HeâHe can pâprotect Mommy and me.â Aster said this brokerly, but it shocked Larissa so much that she nearly cried.
She wanted to say. âMommy can protect you too.â
But after what happened today, she lost the right to say such things. She allowed her baby boot hurt, both physkally and mentally. Moreover, he would never truly heal from this, âMority Aster tugged on Larissaâs hand while gazing at her with great hope. âCould you find a daddy for me?â
â
At this moment, Larissa could not bear to deny him. But to lind him a daddy she really did not want to.
âLet Mommy think about it, okay?â She could only use this kind of tactic to buy lime.
Aster was rather sharp. âHow long do you need?â
Larissa was struck speechless by him âAster.â After collecting hersell, she began to reason with him. âFinding a daddy for you is not the same as buying you a toy, in which when you ask for it today, Iâll be able to buy it for you at once. Besides, itâs hard to find someone that you and I would like. It may take a very long timeâ
Aster was pensive.
After a moment, he asked, âWhat kind of person does Mommy like?â
âWell Kewanâs face appeared abruptly in Larissaâs mindâs eye. She froze for a few seconds before collecting hersell enough to reply with a forced smie, âMommy doesnât know either.â
ââ¦Okay.â Asterâs shoulders slumped.
âMommy. Iâm tired. I will go back to bed. He climbed down from the sola, before running back to his room with the slippers he wore creating a tipâlip lapâtap sound when it struck the lloor.
Upon locking the door, he quickly got out his phone and videoâcalled Wendy, who picked up pretty last.
âMy precious Asterâbool Whatâs up? Why are you looking for Godma?â Her smile was radiant, but when she saw the tear tracks on his lace, she panicked at once.
âWhy are you crying?! What happened? Is it that chubby brat again? Did she bully you again? Godma will fly over and give her a good lew punches for ya!â She furiously rolled up her sleeves, acting for all as if she were going to teleport through the screen to beat someone up.
âNo, no Aster quickly waved his hand while wiping his lace quickly at the same time. âNo one bulled me. Itâs just that Mommy put on Super Starâ for me earlier.â
Aster shook his head. âNo!l wanted to ask He paused, gazing seriously at Wendy on the screen.
âGodma, have you met my daddy?
