novelxo Chapter 1528
As expected, Jayden Elias Kyle and Silvia Turner, whom Karen had been waiting for for the entire morning, got out of the car. Karen hurried over to greet them. "Jayden, Silvia, you guys are finally back. I missed you two so much in the past six months." Silvia stepped forward and gave Karen a big hug. "We missed you too, Mom."
Karen took the opportunity to say, "If you miss me then you should stay here a little longer. It'll be the best if you can move back here so that I can see you every day."
"That's a deal, Mom. I'm going to stay in Chatterton Town for half a year then. If Jayden doesn't agree to it, we can just ask him to go back to Madison City first. Let's see how long he can survive by himself." Listening to what Silvia had said, Jayden's face darkened. "Silvia, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"Who said that it was nonsense? I want to stay in Chatterton Town for 6 months this time. I want to live with Mom and Larry."
At the end of the day, the person who Silvia could never bear to leave was still Larry. Every time she returned to Chatterton Town, she would always ask Larry to sleep with her and Jayden. After returning to Madison City, she would even insist on video calling him every single night.
"Alright, you two can stop arguing already. Let me introduce two new friends to you two first." Karen turned her body sideways, allowing Jayden and Silvia to see Vanessa and Lawrie who were behind her. "This is Vanessa, and this cute little boy is Lawrie. They are Julien's friends. Vanessa, Lawrie, this young man here is my eldest son, Jayden Elias Kyle, and this is his wife, Silvia Turner."
"Hello." Vanessa greeted them nervously. However, Silvia's gaze was not on her at all. The moment she saw Lawrie, Silvia's eyes lit up in an instant. Without thinking, if she would scare such a young child off, she immediately rushed up to Lawrie and hugged him. "Hi, you're Lawrie, right? What a nice name you have, and you look so cute too. Tell me, what did you eat to grow up so adorably?"
Vanessa was speechless.
Everyone in the Kyle family really was indeed unique in their own way. They did not seem to care about formalities at all.
Jayden greeted politely, "Hi!"
"This beautiful lady is so strange." Lawrie said inwardly. They had just met but she was already hugging him so tightly that he almost could not breathe. However, Lawrie was not taken aback by Silvia's behaviour. He said in a childish voice, "I grew up eating medicine."
In fact, that was the truth. In the past years, Lawrie had been on medication almost every single day. That was why he was much thinner than his peers. Looking at him, Vanessa could not help but feel sorry for him.
"Medicine? Why is that so? Are you sick?" Silvia studied him and noticed that he did look like someone who had just recovered. Silvia felt sorry for him so she once again held Lawrie tightly in her arms. She then said, "Lawrie, I'll bring you along with me when I exercise, okay? Once your body gets stronger, you won't need anymore medicine."
"Really?" Lawrie looked at Vanessa excitedly. "Mommy, can I do that?"
It was only when Silvia heard that Lawrie was calling Vanessa 'Mommy' that she took a good look at Vanessa. Karen had briefly introduced Vanessa and Lawrie a while ago, and Silvia thought they were brother and sister. She didn't expect that such a young lady would have a three year-old child already.
Then she looked at herself...
She and Jayden had been married for quite a few years now, but no matter how hard she tried, she just could not conceive. Silvia was very disheartened. She said, "Vanessa, how lucky you are to have such an adorable child like Lawrie. I'm so envious of you."
Silvia did not meaning anything else. She felt that no matter whose child it was, the parents must be the luckiest people in the world.
"Not at all, Miss Turner." Vanessa didn't know Silvia well, but from Silvia's demeanor, she could tell that Silvia was not trying to satirize her. She knew that Silvia sincerely thought Vanessa was lucky to have a child-like Lawrie.
In fact, Vanessa felt that she was very lucky for having such a sensible and adorable son like Lawrie too.
"Well, I'm really envious of you for having such a cute little son. I've been waiting for it for so many years now, but it just won't happen to me." Whenever she saw someone else's child, Silvia couldn't help but think of herself. How wonderful would it be if she could have such a cute child too.
"Alright, let's go into the house first. We can talk anytime." Karen knew that if she were to interrupt any later, Silvia would probably bring Lawrie back to Madison City with her. Seeing that Silvia liked children so much, Karen was distressed.
If it wasn't for her miscarriage, Silvia's child would be a kindergartener by now. However, because of Silvia's poor body condition, the gynaecologist said that she might not be able to conceive again, and that was how it was over the recent years.
"Vanessa, can I carry Lawrie?" She asked but before she even got an answer, Silvia had already carried Lawrie in her arms so tightly, as if she was afraid that Lawrie would escape from her embrace. "Lawrie, will carry you into the house, okay?"
Lawrie said adorably, "Okay. Thanks. You're the best!"
"Thank you for letting me carry you, Lawrie." Silvia said.
Jayden looked at his wife with a smile on his face. However, he knew exactly how she felt deep down in her heart. Knowing that she was sad, Jayden was distressed and a deep sorrow flashed in his eyes. If he had not been careless that time, that accident would not have taken place, and Silvia would not have become so obsessed with children now.
"Jayden." Julien greeted Jayden. Meanwhile, Silvia carried Lawrie in her arms with Karen and Vanessa following closely behind them. Julien and Jayden naturally followed behind them. Jayden could tell how much Julien missed him through his simple greeting.
"Hey." Jayden patted Julien's shoulder as he replied. Although Jayden did not say anything else, Julien knew exactly what he meant.
After a while, seeing that the rest had entered the house, Jayden finally spoke, "You little brat, how can you bring you son home only now? What are you thinking? Were you worried that Mom and Dad will get mad at you for knocking someone up at such a young age? Or were you worried about something else?"
"Mom and Dad are not that unreasonable." Julien looked at Vanessa's slender figure and said bitterly, "Well, to tell you the truth, I only found out about Lawrie's existence a month ago when he was admitted to the hospital. It was only then I've found out that he was my son.
Jayden frowned and asked, "How did that happen?"
Julien said regretfully, "It's all my fault."
"Well, what's done is done. You'd better make sure that you treat them well and make use of the rest of your life to make up for the mistakes you've made."
"Of course. I'll always keep that in mind."
Julien said.
Even if Jayden hadn't told him that, Julien had already planned to spend the rest of his life making it up to Vanessa and Lawrie. That was why he had decided to bring them home that day, so that he could officially introduce them to his family.
