Billionaire’s Reborn Baby Chapter 102
Billionaire’s Reborn Baby Chapter 102
Normally, people would build a garden around the house to create a vigorous ambience.
However, the Peckers planted an evergreen camphor tree in the middle of the yard. After many years, the tree had been rooted dozens of meters underground. It looked magnificent and its canopy expanded. The leafy tree was taller than the main part of the house, even as tall as the attic. The tree rustled in the breeze in autumn.
When Emily was inside, she saw the word Pecker carved on the door’s tablet, and then the tree. Subsequently, a group of servants rushed out and said respectfully, “Mr. Vincent, nice to meet you. Come in, please.”
Although the servants were surprised when they saw Emily, they became even more respectful, “Hello, Miss. May I have your name?”
Emily nodded at them, “Hi.”
Seeing that, the servants were aware that she didn’t want to introduce herself and said, “Mr. Pecker went night fishing, and his son, his son’s wife and his granddaughter went out for dinner. Do come in, please.”
After saying that, they didn’t straighten themselves up until Emily and the others entered the room.
Holding Emily’s hand, Vincent went towards the attic and said, “I’ll visit Trevor.”
The servants were probably used to that, so they walked in front of him, “OK, I’ll lead you to Mr. Trevor.”
“No.” Vincent said indifferently, “Just get busy with your own business.”
The servants bowed to him and said, “OK, Mr. Vincent. Let us know if you have any need.”
Although the attic was above the master bedroom, one could walk up to it by a small side staircase and didn’t need to go through the lobby. It was the elders of the Peckers that built the staircase for Trevor, and the stairs were made of painted agarwood. The servants laid down the soft carpet as the wind blew in autumn. Because Mr. Trevor felt the cold a lot, he rarely went out in autumn and winter. Now it seemed that he hardly went out throughout the year and the servants were accustomed to it. Even if Mr. Trevor did not go out, the servants still had to serve him respectfully so that he could feel warm.
Because the psychiatrist was sure that Trevor would open his heart and accept the external world if he lived in a world of love.
Holding Emily’s hand, Vincent went up the stairs with her. The sound of their footsteps couldn’t be heard because of the soft carpet. Emily felt a chill down her neck as the wind blew. She dropped her head and was aware that Vincent stopped for a while to keep pace with her. Emily walked a few steps before realizing that the wind blew to her neck had disappeared.
She looked at Vincent beside her in the darkness. The man with handsome features was only 26 years old, but he was not impulsive or passionate like a young man. Instead, he was an emotionally stable and restrained man. His black suit made him look like a deity detached from the world.
Vincent looked straight ahead and kept walking. He seemed to have sensed Emily’s gaze, then he gazed at her and said, “Watch the step.”
Hearing that, Emily stopped looking at him anymore and gripped his hand tightly.
Shortly, they arrived at the attic.
There was a little robot at the door. When it saw that they were coming, it immediately stretched its legs and stood up, holding a red rose in its hand.
It was the first time that Emily had seen such an exquisite and human-friendly robot. She was amazed for a moment before she realized that the red rose was for her.
She took the red rose from it and said, “Thank you.”
The robot seemed embarrassed as it touched its bald head. Then, it pressed a button at the bottom of the door and the door opened.
Emily did not know that Trevor was an autistic before she came here. As the door opened, she saw a red world and couldn’t help exclaiming, “Wow.”
The floor was piled with sealed glass bottles of red roses. Because the stems of roses were tall, the bottles were high as well. Under the illumination of the lights, these piled bottles looked like a fiery carpet with red roses.
On the wall, there were many blessing bags and peach trees that his parents had prayed for from temples, which meant that Trevor can get blessings. All the things were scattered all over the bed rail. And the floor was covered with a thick carpet. Because Trevor did not like to wear shoes, he often walked on the floor barefoot.
There were no chairs in the room, and the owner of the room did not intend to come out to welcome them. Emily realized that the owner seemed to be a little weird until now.
She looked for a long time, but it seemed that no one was here. What she saw was that there seemed to be something wriggling on the corner of the bed. Because there was no light on the side of the bed rail, it was so dark that she could not see it clearly.
Suddenly, the robot in front of them spoke.
“Hi, Vincent.”
The sound from the machine seemed to be somewhat immature, like the sound of a child who was still eleven or twelve years old. There were sounds of clattering that came from the side of the bed rail, and then the robot said again, “Hi, Mrs.”
Emily felt that this voice was too soft and fragile to be disturbed, so he replied gently, “Hello, my name is Emily Britt.”
‘Rex said that the one she will visit was Mr. Trevor, so Trevor should be Arabella’s older brother or younger brother. In light of Arabella’s disposition, Emily was unable to link the person in front of him to Arabella’s family.’
In her view, all family members from the Peck were graceful, just like Arabella. It had never occurred to her that Arabella had a brother like this, who barely had any sense of existence!
Vincent did not walk towards the bed rail. Instead, he pulled Emily’s arm to sit on the carpet and surrounded the little robot. The robot in silver was about thirty centimeters long, and its material couldn’t be identified. It was small but exquisite, with a nose and eyes, and its eyes were made of gray gemstones. It looked cold, but the light he emitted when looking at others was extremely gentle. Its five fingers were spread out, and each of it was so flexible that could be extended to more than a meter. So could its metal legs, each leg could be pulled to five meters. Its eyes looked towards Vincent, as if it was listening, but also as if it was waiting.
“I want to borrow something this time.” Vincent said, then he petted the robot’s head, “You little guy, will you go with me?” Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
But Trevor kept silent for a long time.
Emily did not know why Vincent wanted to borrow such a precious item. It seemed that the owner was unwilling to give it to him.
After a while, some scratching sounds came from the bed. Then the robot said, “Vincent, I’m an adult now. Don’t pet my head anymore.”
Emily fell silent.
‘So that was why he had been silent for so long?’
She carefully looked over the bed and finally discovered that the bed rail was surrounded by a layer of something like gauze. However, it was thicker than the gauze. It was more like a curtain that wrapped the people on the bed. From the view of Emily, she could only see that something was wriggling. It seemed that it was the boy who spoke. But she didn’t know whether it was his feet or his hands. The robot would speak after he moved.
Emily couldn’t help but be surprised, what’s that?
