Chapter 344


    However, instead of obediently returning to his mother''s arms as he had done yesterday, he tightened


    his hold on Grace''s legs.


    K Corbyn said, "Sorry, Nelson''s not usually like this. He seems to like you."


    "It''s all right. I like Nelson too," said Grace, picking up the little one as she spoke.


    The little one did not struggle and was remarkably submissive. He even grinned broadly at Grace after


    she picked him up.


    The smile had a trace of timidity and ingratiation that made Grace strangely sad. "Hello, Nelson," said


    Grace, raising her hand to touch the little one''s head.


    However, the little one could not hear her voice at all. He did not know what she was saying. He only


    looked at her in confusion.


    K Corbyn looked at her son and then at Grace. Suddenly, there was a sh of gloom in her eyes.

    Did Nelson... mistake Grace for that person? Was that why he was so unnaturally close to... If so, it


    was such a shame... They could never see that person again.


    "Can you teach me some signnguage one day, K? I want to learn tomunicate with Nelson,"


    Grace said to K Corbyn.


    K Corbyn came to herself and quickly said, "Sure, of course."


    Grace interacted with the little one for a while, but because she did not know signnguage, the


    interaction was not that smooth. She needed K Corbyn to help with signnguage.


    By noon, Grace started delivering food.


    She found time to practice riding the electric bike, and it was not too big a problem. The electric bike


    was like a bicycle. Once you knew how to ride it, even after a few years of not riding, you could still get


    the hang of it immediately.


    However, when Grace was delivering food, she tried to control the speed and drive more slowly to get


    used to it.


    The small restaurant had more orders for food deliveries at noon, but after half-past one, there were


    fewer orders for food deliveries.


    It was almost two o''clock before Grace was finally free for lunch.


    "Are you tired?" K Corbyn asked.


    "I''m doing just fine," Grace said as she smiled. As far as she was concerned, it was not easy to make


    money.


    "It''s just that sometimes the restaurant can get busy, and you can''t eat on time," K Corbyn said. Just


    like Grace, she had to wait until she was free to grab a bite.


    "By the way, how old is Nelson? Doesn’t he have to go to kindergarten?" said Grace, looking at the little


    guy as he ate his fruit.


    K Corbyn gave a wry smile. "He could have gone to kindergarten this year, but because of his


    hearing disability, the kindergarten wouldn''t take him. Although there are kindergartens that cater to


    special children, the tuition is expensive, and children like him need cochlear imnts. Plus, a parent


    has to apany him. With my current condition, there''s nothing I can do."


    "Nelson doesn’t have a cochlear imnt yet?" That was when Grace realized that she had not seen the


    little one with a cochlear imnt in his ear.


    "I''m saving up for it. Maybe another two or three months and I''ll have enough money to get him a


    cochlear imnt," said K Corbyn. It was as if the subject had given her hope again. Her face


    radiated thick maternal love as she tenderly looked at her son. "Once he gets the cochlear imnt,


    Nelson will be able to hear and learn to speak."


    Grace could see that K Corbyn loved Nelson very much. Although she was the owner of a small


    restaurant, she only wore cheap, old clothes. She did not wear any jewelry, and her hair was always


    tied up casually.
