“My child, I’m so sorry. Mommy is sorry… I didn’t protect you well.”
If not for her trembling hands being tied to the back, she would definitely caress his face now.
My son, it must be very painful…
In that instant, she had the urge jump down from here with this evil woman pointing a gun to her so that they could perish together.
However, when she thought of Ji Ziming, who was still waiting for her downstairs, and how her children could not lose their mother at such a young age, she repressed her extremist thoughts.
She turned to look at her child again. Her heart ached even more when she saw how his body was bruised from being tied up too long.
“Ping An, mommy is back… Mommy…” will definitely bring you to safety even if it means losing my life doing so…
The little fellow, who was in a semi-conscious state, seemed to hear her voice as he woke up.
“Mommy…”
He opened his eyes and, despite his blurry vision, identified the one squatting before him.
“Hurry and leave… B-Bad…”
He struggled to say something to her, but before he could, Qiao Jingyun interrupted.
“Hur hur! What a good show of familial love between mother and son! Despite raising this ingrate for years, he’s never been this affectionate to me. The moment you came, this ingrate immediately called you his mother. Should I say that it’s precisely because he carries your blood?”
She mocked while coldly watching this scene of the mother-son pair’s reunion.
Although she said that, she knew deep inside that this was the result of her abusing him all these years.
She knew that she would get a better result in her revenge to Pei Ge if she had this child be affectionate with her.
Unfortunately, whenever she recalled that he was this woman’s child, she could not bring herself to treat him well.
“Pei Ge, Pei Ge. If I were you, I would jump down myself. As a mother, you actually managed to lose your child. Don’t you find yourself laughable?”
She chuckled mockingly.
“Do you know what kind of life your son has been leading for the past few years? He’s suffered quite a lot, mind you.
“While you were in New York, living a blissful life with your two other children, this son of yours has been through quite a number of my abuse!”
As her mortal enemy, she of course knew where her weakness was.
She also knew what to say to land a deathly blow.
Indeed, as expected, Pei Ge was totally affected by her words.
Her face turned whiter with every word she uttered. She did not even notice when she started biting her lower lip hard enough to draw blood.
Seeing her like this, Qiao Jinguun only felt smugger.
Just as she moved to continue speaking, a voice, which should not have appeared here, traveled to her ears, making her panic.
“Mommy, mommy! Daddy and I are here to find you!”
