Chapter 43 The Privilege Of Being Alone
Chapter 43 The Privilege Of Being Alone
Her face turned red, and the tip of her nose had been soaked with fine sweat. Under the light, her face
was glittering slightly. She bit her lips gently, looking delicate and lovely.
This woman could always provoke every nerve of him unconsciously.
"Dad, I'm done. Let's take mom home."
Hearing the soft voice, Ethan instantly looked back.
Pumpkin was wiping his mouth with a tissue and looking at Ethan with a smile. Apparently, Pumpkin
was very satisfied with the ice-cream he had just finished.
"Okay, let's go."
He bent down to pick up Pumpkin and walked out with his long legs.
The man was handsome and the woman was gentle. In addition, the doll-like little boy had curly hair,
white and tender skin, and three-dimensional features
This family was so handsome that they attracted much admiration on the way.
Ethan glanced at the crowd coldly. All the praises in the eyes of the crowd were gone. For a moment,
he had a feeling that it was true.
It seemed that Bowen was the son of him and Cindy. They were a real family.
Cindy lowered her head and followed them.
A woman who abandoned her son and was selfish might be the comment on her in the eyes of these
people.
"Bang!"
Cindy lowered her head to think carefully and bumped into Ethan.
Ethan turned around with an angry face.
"You can even bump into others while walking. You are really something."
"Why did you walk so slowly?" Cindy quibbled in a low voice and quickly walked around.
How could she tell Ethan what she was thinking?
"Dad, don't be mad at mom. Otherwise, I won't talk to you anymore." Before Ethan opened his mouth,
Pumpkin suddenly stood up and pinched Ethan's face hard.
"I..."
Ethan was stunned.
When did this child become the spokesperson of that woman?
Seeing this, Cindy chuckled.
Finally, someone was defending her.
Seeing the smile on her face, Pumpkin was very happy. He said sarcastically, "Mommy, you don't have
to call my name in the future. I like you to call me Pumpkin. I only allow you to call me Pumpkin."
He looked extremely serious.
"Oh, didn't you say that you don't like others to call you Pumpkin?"
Cindy felt a little strange. From the first day she saw the child, he had emphasized that his name was
Will Huo for countless times. He thought the name Pumpkin was too childish.
Pumpkin smiled.
"Yes. But you are different from them. You are my mommy."
Pumpkin's words moved Ethan.
This guy is so ungrateful, isn't he?
Even Old Mrs. Huo didn't have the right to do that at home. Except for Ethan, whoever called him
Pumpkin, he would definitely pout to protest. It was a well-known fact in Huo's Mansion. When they
were free, they would always call him "Pumpkin" and play with him.
Moreover, sometimes, Old Mrs. Huo even joked with Ethan that Pumpkin was the son that his brother
sent him and was born to be close to him.
They had only played for one day, and the thing that had persisted for so long at home collapsed in
front of Cindy.
It seemed that there was a magic that made Cindy and Pumpkin feel close to each other innately.
When they walked out of the cafe, a familiar Bentley parked on the roadside.
The door was opened. Ethan put Pumpkin on the back seat and turned to look at Cindy. "Get in the
car."
"Well, I have something else to do."
Cindy turned around and was about to leave.
Cindy had mixed feelings when Pumpkin was born when she was pregnant. For the sake of Ethan, the
Cheng family had broken up. All of this was a joke in the end.
Such a man was not worth it.
From that day on, Cindy swore to herself that she would never have anything to do with Ethan Huo
again.
"Stop!" Ethan shouted coldly.
"Mom, let's go home together."
In the car, Pumpkin called Cindy in a soft voice.
She took a deep breath and turned around. Cindy had changed into a gentle smile.
"Will, listen to me. I have something else to do. Go home by yourself."
"Mommy!"
Disappointed, Pumpkin's face darkened at this moment.
Ethan stepped forward, pulled Cindy into the car, and put her between him and Pumpkin.
There was no way out. Cindy turned around and glared at Ethan.
His magnetic voice was full of coldness.
"I just saw you accompany Pumpkin the whole day, so I took you along."
"I don't need your kindness. I still have the money to take a taxi." Cindy retorted.
This woman was as eloquent as before.
An unnoticeable smile flashed through Ethan's eyes.
"Drive."
Cindy shut her mouth. After several fights, Ethan had changed. In front of him, Cindy's opinion was like
a dandelion in autumn. As the wind blew, it dissipated without leaving a trace.
When the two were arguing, Pumpkin seemed to feel something wrong. He pursed his lips and dared
not speak.
There was a moment of silence in the car. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
As the car went on, Pumpkin shook his head on Cindy's arm.
Pumpkin had a good time during the day, so he must be tired now. Pumpkin leaned his head against
Cindy, and his eyes were blurred. He was about to fall asleep.
She couldn't bear it.
Cindy turned around and held Pumpkin in her arms.
"Mommy!"
In a daze, Pumpkin put his arms around her neck and called in Cindy's ear.
The thin and soft voice of a child suddenly came,.
What the child had just said in the cafe was heartbreaking. He hadn't seen his mother since he was
born. Ethan was really a bastard. He abandoned women all the time and sowed everywhere. The child
was the one who suffered.
Somehow, Cindy felt sorry for Pumpkin in his arms.
She held Pumpkin tightly in her arms for fear that he would disappear. Just like that child.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and the street lights outside the window began to blur.
Cindy raised her head and straightened her back. She didn't want the man beside her to see her
embarrassment.
She had her pride.
Ethan pursed his thin lips and looked ahead indifferently. He noticed the subtle change of Cindy from
side sight. He didn't know why this woman suddenly became a hedgehog. She shook off her armor and
was ready to fight at any time.
The car stopped at the gate of the Huo's Mansion.
Ethan took the sleeping Pumpkin from Cindy.
"Send her back."
He said coldly.
Then he picked up Pumpkin and strode towards Huo's Mansion.
Well, it's so normal of him to burn the bridge after crossing it.
She wanted to go back by herself, but Cindy gave up the idea when she saw the dark outside.
Anyway, she had been a mother for the whole day. It was not a big deal for him to send her back.
The engine started, and the Bentley sped out and disappeared in the night.
