Chapter 1795


    Hendrix and Serene followed closely from behind.


    After taking two steps, I suddenly stopped and walked up to Hendrix. In front of Serene, I stretched out my hand naturally, turned around, and tidied up his cor. After that, I flexed my fingers in a rather pretentious manner and fixed his tie. Finally, I took a step back and stared at my work with satisfaction. I then boasted, "That''s better."


    I stopped for a moment and looked up at Hendrix with an innocent smile. "Well, don''t forget toe by to have dinner with the children when you have time. You''re wee any time."


    After that, I turned around and left the hospital with Anne.


    Even when I got into the car, I was still proud of myself. Who wouldn''t envy me, if they saw that?


    At the thought of Serene''s face turning livid with anger, but not being able to re up in that moment, I felt extremely happy.


    So what if she was the one with Hendrix out in the open? The intimacy and gentleness between us was a chasm that she would never be able to bridge over in her entire life, especially for a woman who was devoted to her career.


    There were mas that would never be able to touch each other. So, even if the conditions were appropriate, they weren''t necessarily truly suitable for each other.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    "Mom." Anne suddenly hugged me with her face in my chest. Her big eyes flickered and she looked at me slightly confused. "Does Dad not like us anymore?"


    "Huh?" I found this a little strange. I tidied up her hair and asked softly, "Why do you think that?"


    "Dad doesn''t want to eat with me..." She pouted, and there was a trace of sadness in her eyes. "Mr. rk said that if someone likes you, you will get to eat a lot of meals together, so Dad must not like me."


    It was Mr. rk again.


    Josiah had taught so many things to Anne. Still, a small child like her shouldn''t worry too much about these things, otherwise, her childhood would be an unhappy one.


    Although I was angry, I still


    comforted her patiently, "Dad and Mom love you most in the world. But now, Dad is fighting against some bad people. If he meets us too often, he''ll get distracted and will get hurt by the bad people. In order to protect us, Dad has to stay away. So, will you still get angry with Dad, Anne?" "Then, Daddy is a


    superhero?!" Anne asked seriously.


    I forced out a smile and nodded helplessly.


    It was supposed to be a joke, but I didn''t expect her to take it seriously. She got up from my body and looked shocked. "Then, I''ll a superhero too!"


    I was shocked by her reaction. After


    a while, I didn''t know whether to


    n


    laugh or cry: "Yes, you must be very powerful. You can''t just protect yourself, you also have to protect everyone you want to protectas well, okay?"


    "Yes, Mom! I will!" She spoke with so much enthusiasm as if she was going to be an envoy of justice in that very moment, punishing the evils of the world and rescuing the good.


    I smiled and stopped talking, but my heart was eager for this to happen.


    Luck didn''t exist in this world. If I


    could be stronger, then I''d protect everything I loved. I didn''t el know how long I could protect my children. I only hoped that they could protect themselves before my time is up.


    QUMS


    After sending Anne home and cing her under Maria''s care, I set off with Aaron to see Josiah.


    We sat at the most prominent spot in the cafe. As soon as the waiter brought out our order, the ss door slowly pushed open, and the long-lost man walked toward us.


    When our eyes met, I clearly saw the changes in him.
