    Chapter 271 Mommy, Don‘t Leave Me Alone!


    Joey lowered his head and pressed his lips into a straight line. After a while, he said in a low voice,


    “Mommy, I can’t leave now.” Rachel didn’t say anything. “Mommy…” Seeing that she didn’t say anything,


    Joey thought she was going to be angry. His heart beat fast. He looked up at her uneasily and said,


    “Mommy, I’m sorry. I… Can I go back a few dayster?”


    “Why?” Rachel didn’t say anything more and asked calmly. In fact, at the moment she asked, she had a


    vague guess. Her eyes fell on the dried blood on Joey’s clothes. Joey lowered his head and linked the


    fingers of his hands together on his stomach, staring at his toes without answering her.


    “Joe, you…” Seeing his reaction, Rachel was almost sure. She squatted down and looked at him. After a


    short hesitation, she asked what she wanted to know most, “Do you want to stay with him?” The two of


    them knew clearly who ‘he’ was referring to. Joey shook his head in a hurry and said, “Mommy, don’t get


    me wrong. I didn’t mean that. I just… I just…” Seeing the sweat on his forehead, Rachel couldn’t bear to


    see him be like that.


    She lifted the corner of her mouth and raised her head to wipe the sweat off his forehead gently, “Don’t


    worry. Take your time.” “Mommy…” Joey’s eyes suddenly turned red, and his big tears rolled down his


    cheeks all of a sudden, “I just want to stay here for a few days. He was injured, and he got shot because


    of protecting me.” ‘Got shot.’ The two words hit Rachel’s eardrum hard.


    “If I leave now, I will definitely feel uneasy.” Joey continued, “Mommy, you’ve told me to be grateful and


    return others’ kindness. I know he’s a bad and annoying man. But if he didn’t want to protect me, he


    could have avoided it. At least he’s not bad in this matter. In that case, I can’t leave.”


    Hearing what Joey said that he even quoted what she had said, she didn’t know what to say for a


    moment. Could she say that he did a good job? But the man inside the room was none other than Victor.


    As long as Joey stayed with him for a little longer, it would increase the risk of his identity being exposed.


    Rachel didn’t want to think about the consequence of being discovered, nor did she dare to think about it.


    But could she say that he was wrong? Could she take him away from here by force? If she really did so,


    this matter would traumatize Joey. She knew her son very well that as long as he was determined to do


    something, no one could persuade him, just like his scummy father. Rachel looked at Joey with deep


    eyes, “Are you going to stay here no matter what I say?”


    “……” Upon hearing this, Joey looked at her without saying anything. Even if he didn’t say it, the answer


    was self-evident. Rachel narrowed her eyes and withdrew her hand. Without saying anything, she stood


    up and made up her mind quickly. Then she said, “Okay, I agree.” He had thought that Rachel would


    refuse his request, but he didn’t expect her to be so straightforward, which made Joey stunned for a


    moment.


    Soon a guess shed through his mind, and the red color on the corners of his eyes which had just


    faded a little, became obvious again. “Mommy, are… are you going to leave me alone?” As soon as he


    finished his words, Joey burst into tears again and he wept more bitterly than before.


    Rachel didn’t expect that Joey would think so. She was stunned for a moment, but before she could


    exin, Joey suddenly rushed over and hugged her, saying anxiously. “Mommy, I’ll go with you. I won’t


    stay here. Don’t leave me alone… I’ll listen to you and go with you. I don’t want Daddy, but Mommy.”


    “Joe?”


    Rachel reached out her hand and wanted to pull his hand, trying to exin. However, when Joey noticed


    her movement, he held her even tighter. “Let go of me, Joe.” Rachel couldn’t free herself from it or move.


    She felt both sorry and helpless. “…… Mommy.” Joe raised his head and looked at her miserably withContent rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    red eyes. Seeing him like this, Rachel didn’t want to say anything more, so she had to slow down her


    tone and said, “Let go of me first.


    I can’t talk to you in this way.” “Mommy, promise me first. Don’t leave me alone.” “Who said I don’t want


    you?” Rachel couldn’t helpughing. Joey blinked his tearful eyes. Rachel flicked his forehead slightly


    with her index finger and said, “I had a devil of a job giving birth to you. Why could I abandon you?”


    “But weren’t you…” She said that just now so clearly and calmly as if she was going to leave him here


    and nevere back “I’ll give you three seconds. Let go of me.” Rachel looked down at him. She


    couldn’t move in such a posture, and it was also a little difficult for her to speak, “Three, two…” Joey


    immediately loosened his grip and took a step back, but his eyes were still fixed on her.


    Rachel took a piece of tissue from the table and wiped his tears, “Joe, you still remember the principle of


    gratitude and return clearly. But why couldn’t you remember that it is unmanly to cry?” “Mommy…”


    Rachel threw the tissue into the trash can and sighed helplessly, “I won’t leave, but I won’t leave you


    alone here.”


    “What do you mean?” Looking at him, Rachel raised her hand, gently stroked his eyebrows and eyes


    with her thumb, and then put on the mask again, “Let’s go, take me in.” After saying that, she looked at


    the bedroom door which was ajar.
