Chapter 2: Will the Big Brother Be Abused by the Stepmother? _2

"Mommy, where's the piggy buns?" The youngest daughter, Tifanny Dunn, wearing a little white bunny jumpsuit, shook her mother's arm fiercely. When Richelle Dunn left home, she promised her two little treasures that she would buy them the popular piggy buns on her return. But after she saw Mr. Lewis, her soul was completely captivated, and she forgot all about the piggy buns. The two greedy little pigs circled around her, and seeing her empty hands, they were somewhat disappointed. The little girl pouted, slightly angry, "Mommy lied to us..." Her big brother was also a bit unhappy. He looked up and saw his always smiling and beautiful Mommy looking slightly swollen in the eyes, resembling his sister after she had cried. He hurriedly patted his sister's head. "Sister, be good. Mommy is not feeling well..." The chubby little hand held Richelle, took small steps, and led her anxiously back to the living room. "Mommy, where are you not feeling well? Did someone bully you?" Compared to Tifanny Dunn, who only knew about eating and playing, her big brother Timothy Dunn was more insightful and responsible. Although he was just over four years old, he had always considered himself as the only man in the family and its backbone. Richelle sat down on the sofa, and the two little ones climbed onto her, one on each side. Timothy pressed his forehead against hers to check her temperature, and Tifanny rubbed her face against Richelle to comfort her. Richelle's face was pale, and she felt suffocated in her heart. Opening her arms, she hugged her two treasures tightly, burying her face in their hair and whispering. "Timothy, Tifanny, Mommy saw your big brother!" As the two children became more aware, Richelle told them about their older brother who had been taken away by a bad person when she was unconscious. She also told the children that one day, she would definitely bring their brother back. "Ah?" Tifanny blinked her large eyes, she wriggled her head out of her mother's embrace, worriedly asking, "Is big brother doing well? He's not treated like Cinderella by an evil stepmother, is he?" Fearing that his sister's innocent words would hurt their mother's feelings, Timothy quickly covered Tifanny's mouth with his chubby hand, raising his head cautiously to look at Richelle. "Mommy, don't worry! We'll find a way to save big brother!" From the moment Richelle saw her eldest son, she felt as if she had been hammered into a fiery hell of torment. But her two precious babies' hugs and warmth managed to pull her out of the depths of pain, and reason gradually returned. "Timothy, Tifanny, don't worry. Big brother is doing very well, and his daddy cherishes him a lot." She rubbed the heads of the two little ones to comfort them while silently encouraging herself. She needed to be clear-headed and spirited more than ever, rather than wallowing in regret and loss. Although Timothy was more mature than Tifanny, he was still a child who longed to know more about the father who gave him half of his blood, including curiosity and desire. "So big brother's daddy is our daddy too, right, Mommy?" Facing her son's eager eyes, Richelle could not bear to shatter his beautiful illusion. "Yes!" Tifanny, more naive than Timothy, looked at her mother with twinkling eyes, full of anticipation. "Mommy, can we go see big brother and daddy?" Richelle immediately shook her head, "No!" Five years ago that night, Richelle still hadn't figured out the whole truth of the matter. She had drunk a glass of beverage while having dinner at The Dunns. When she woke up, she was in a dark room where she couldn't see her own fingers. The pain and the man's messy, hurried breath made her realize instantly that she had been set up by Megan Linwood and her daughter! She had thought about getting some information from the man, but he was not only breathing heavily, but his mind was also very chaotic, not saying a word. After a night of intimacy, he had even made her pass out. When she woke up again, she was imprisoned in that tiled room, where she stayed for ten months. It wasn't until Sonia Seaton rescued her and her dying children that she learned she had been trapped in Lordon City for all those months. As for who the man was and whether he too had been framed like her, she still had no answers. "So how can we see big brother? I miss him so much!" Though they had never met, both Timothy and Tifanny could not forget their big brother. Richelle also wanted to see her eldest son, to hold him tight, kiss his cheeks, and tell him, Mommy loves you! But now, that could only be a luxury. Whether it was Roy Lewis or The Dunns, none were easy to deal with. The slightest carelessness on her part would not only prevent her from getting her eldest son back, but it would also put Timothy and Tifanny's situation in great danger! "My babies, don't worry. Mommy will find a way!"
