Chapter 769 As Long As You Come Back

Hester woke up with a hint of confusion in her eyes. She had been in the Liu family for many days and
had been used to the Chinese style of decoration. This fresh and idyllic style made her very absent-
minded.

She sat on the bed for a long time. Yesterday's memory rushed over like a spring, making her dizzy
head gradually clear.

"It's not a dream!" She murmured and pinched her cheek with a smile.

It turned out that when she was extremely sad, there was still her beloved son on the other side of the
continent. This recognition made her uplifted and she wanted to break through some boundaries.

"Rat-a-tat!" A dull knock on the door interrupted Hester's excitement. Her heart was swelling, but she
was very happy.

After excitement, Hester calmed down. She took a deep breath, got out of bed and opened the door.
She met Austin's calm eyes, which were like a pool of water, deep and unfathomable.

"Good morning, Brother Austin!"

After a short period of daze, Hester was the first to break this strange calmness. The corners of her
mouth rippled with a smile, and her eyes were sparkling.

Austin was slightly stunned, but then he realized and smiled knowingly. It seemed that what she said
yesterday was not just to comfort him, but really had no complaints about him. This was the best result
for him.

"Good morning!"



A bright smile bloomed on his lips. His black and white eyes were clear enough to see the bottom, and
there was only the reflection of Hester.

The two of them chose to forget what happened last night. After having breakfast, Austin went to work
as usual, while Hester stood at the door and watched him leave.

When Hester was left alone in the huge house, she felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost something
and needed to find it back immediately.

So out of instinct, she went out. Walking on the road, through the busy street, when she came to her
senses, she was standing at the door of Thomas' kindergarten.

The golden words were dazzling, and her eyes were painful and slightly dizzy.

"It seems that I really can't forget it!"

Hester sighed helplessly. She had thought that it would never happen. The pain in the past was so
deep that she could hardly breathe when she dreamed at midnight.

In the past few years, when she had no child, she had lived a good life and successfully separated
herself from those people and things. But now she had her own child. Would she repeat the same
mistake?

Before she could figure it out, the kindergarten was bustling with noise and excitement. The parents
drove to pick up their children.

When she came to her senses, she turned around awkwardly and raised her hand to wipe away the
tears that fell from her eyes.

"No way!" She hadn't fully figured out this matter, and she needed time to deal with it. It was impossible
for her to be together with Terence. She had to reconsider it thoroughly!



"Auntie April!"

A clear voice shocked Hester, who had been calm just now. Her fingertips couldn't help trembling. The
blood around her froze, and she was unable to move.

Thomas frowned and looked at Hester's back with confusion. He was sure that he didn't see it wrong,
and at the same time, he couldn't understand why the enthusiastic Auntie April didn't turn around today.

Although he was confused, he ran to Hester and held her hand quietly. It was warm and wet. "Auntie
April, why are you here today?"

His voice was soft and soft. He clenched his fists nervously, and his hands were sweaty and sticky.

Hester's heart turned into a pool of water in his words. She turned around and looked into his bright
eyes. She really wanted to give him a smile, but she had no strength. She closed her eyes dejectedly
and sighed.

"Thomas..." She really wanted to pretend to be indifferent and chat with him. But she felt that she got a
lump in her throat, making her unable to make any sound.

What did she want to say? What else could she say?

At the thought of this, she could only hide her eyes from his bright eyes, feeling sad. Since she had
been absent for so long, she might as well retreat and continue to be his Auntie April!

"Auntie April, you look strange today. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Thomas' eyes were fixed on
Hester, observing her every move. And his heart hung in the air in an instant.

Hester raised her head and forced the tears back. Looking at the blurry sky, she felt ironic. "It's windy.
It's just sand in my eyes!"



She said lightly, but only she knew how she felt. Seeing that her own son could not be recognized, she
would clearly blame this pain on Terence.

She knew who made them separated.

Although Thomas had extraordinary intelligence, he was just a child after all. Hearing what Hester had
said, Thomas' first reaction was to hold her hand and force her to squat down. His little hand covered
her face, itching and comfortable.

"If you feel uncomfortable with your eyes, I will help you with a blow."

He had been playful when he was a child. It was inevitable that sand would fall into his eyes, and Lisa
would always help him. Although he didn't understand, he knew how to do the same.

Touching Thomas' head dotingly, Hester smiled bitterly. "You are so obedient!"

If she had been by his side all the time, she would have seen him being naughty, instead of being a
good student all the time, who was standard in behavior and liked by everyone.

It was the nature of a child to be naughty. She didn't know what had happened to Thomas to make him
like this. From the professional point of view, he might have slight autism, but she firmly believed that it
was impossible!

"How about I take you to a place?"

"Okay!" Thomas' eyes were bright and he answered directly. He would listen to his mother's words
obediently.

Hester's eyes were wet. She took his hand, got into the car and left. But she forgot what Thomas had
said when they first met. He knew that she was his mother, but she didn't care at that time, and now



she had already let it go.

The car arrived at the Liu mansion smoothly. When Hardy saw Hester holding Thomas' hand, he was
not surprised at all. "Miss Hester, you are back."

"Mr. Hardy!" Hester replied softly and nodded. After all, she was a junior. She couldn't break the rules.

As Hester walked in, the tense atmosphere in the Liu mansion collapsed. Yesterday, Hester left in such
a hurry, which completely confused the Liu family. Edmund really attached great importance to her.

"As long as you come back, that's good!"
