Isabel Smith didn't burst into laughter as usual at Raymond Thompson's mischievous behavior; instead, she spoke with an uneasy heart, saying, "Raymond, if I told you that, without you wishing for me to be your mother soon, I have always been your mother, would you accept me?"
Percy Stanton, who was cleaning up the room with a vacuum cleaner, heard this and suddenly stopped his actions.
Subconsciously, he turned his head and looked at Isabel.
As Isabel's gaze met Percy's, her lips tightened and she looked extremely anxious. She saw a hint of nervousness in the depths of Percy's eyes as well. Her hand holding Raymond's fingers had become icy cold.
In her entire life, she had experienced so many ups and downs and faced many risks, but this time, her fear was unprecedented.
It took Isabel half a day to muster up the courage to look at Raymond.
Raymond's little face had completely stiffened, and his eyes stared at her strangely without blinking.
