A Husband For Killer Mom

275 Ch. 275 Elliot’s True Colors (part 1)

Since Anxia couldn’t find Mei Yin, she decided not to leave Elliot alone. Even though it seemed that Song Lei had kept his nose down, Anxia did not trust the people in this place. She also deliberately didn’t go to her father’s room, so people would believe she didn’t care about Zhou Yu Hue. Anxia also told Elliot not to ask to come to his grandfather’s room and act like a child who was afraid to leave the room.

The role that Elliot was currently playing was a traumatized kid, and he did not dare to step foot out of the room. Besides that, he would scream hysterically when he saw someone other than his mother enter his room. Even Nanny, who wanted to go inside, was chased away by an ear-splitting scream that made people not bother serving the boy.

This made Loraine no longer order Nanny to enter Elliot’s room to find out what Anxia and Elliot were doing in the room.

Loraine wanted to set up a camera in Elliot’s room, but she was afraid that Anxia would have a chance to threaten and embarrass her again in front of her men. Therefore she just installed a bugging device and listened to their every conversation.

She didn’t find any suspicious conversation making Loraine feel bored. Hence, she decided to come to the boy’s room herself. Loraine was sure Elliot would welcome her with open arms because the boy still loved her enough to stay here. Unfortunately, her confident smile vanished when she saw Elliot hiding behind his mother when the boy saw her coming. Please visit 𝑓ree𝑤𝘦𝚋𝐧𝘰ve𝑙. co𝒎

“Xiao Guang, won’t you give me a hug? You don’t want to see me?”

“I think he’s afraid of your lover who has strangled his neck.”

Loraine widened her eyes at Anxia’s sarcastic words and glared at the girl with annoyance. Could it be that Anxia had told the child that the person who had sent Song Lei to this place was her? How dare that girl make a kid like Elliot fear her?

“Xiao Guang, don’t believe her. You know well I would never hurt you. I would never hurt you.”

.....

“But you let other people hurt him,” added Anxia without letting Loraine Shu enter the room.

If Anxia continued to pressure Loraine in front of her men, Loraine no longer knew whether she could maintain her position in this place or not. Loraine needn’t have worried if this room hadn’t been wired.

But she ordered her men to bug this room, listen to their every conversation, and report it to her if there was a suspicious conversation.

If she let Anxia pressure her and her men saw her weakness, sooner or later, all of Deke Shu’s men assigned here would switch sides to Anxia.

“Anxia, ??why are you badmouthing me in front of my own grandson? Soon you will be leaving, and Xiao Guang has already decided to stay here. Are you forcing your son to come with you by poisoning his brain with false information?”

Anxia was about to continue speaking when she felt a tiny hand holding her hand, making her swallow back the words she wanted to say.

“Mama, I’m fine.”

Loraine Shu smiled broadly, hearing such pleasant words from the tiny mouth. “My Xiao Guang is indeed the best. Come here; I want to hug you.”

Elliot walked towards Loraine Shu with unhurried steps and then hugged his grandmother’s neck. Loraine smiled triumphantly at Anxia, making Anxia clench her jaw in annoyance.

Anxia still hadn’t told Elliot that the woman he hugged wasn’t the real grandmother. She purposely didn’t tell him because she didn’t want Elliot to have the image of a cruel and cold-hearted grandmother.

Elliot still has a grandmother—Grandma Meisya, who is kind and loves her granddaughter so much. She didn’t want Elliot to be traumatized by telling the boy the truth in this place.

Later, after they left here, Anxia would slowly tell her son not to shake his pure soul, which was already scarred by Song Lei’s inhumane torture and punishment too much.

Because of that, Anxia had to stay silent and hold back her emotions when she saw another woman who claimed to be her son’s grandmother hugging Elliot with a triumphant smile.

“Xiao Guang, tomorrow is your birthday, and I plan to throw a big party for you. I’ve sent several invitations to celebrate your birthday.”

Elliot let go of his hug and looked at his grandmother with a deadpan look as if he wasn’t interested in her grandmother’s words.

“You don’t like it?

“I don’t want to leave this room. If you still love me, expel that person today, then I’ll get out of the room.”

“Wh… What? That person? Who do you mean?”

Elliot pulled his hand back from his grandmother’s grip and stepped away from her. Then Loraine was surprised by the light in those eyes, which now shone differently.

The light in the boy’s eyes was the same as when Anxia looked at her so intently.

“Aren’t you the master of this place? How can you not understand who I mean? Didn’t you say my mother lied when she said you had that man punish me? If my mother is lying, you shouldn’t mind kicking that evil man with a scar on his face out of here.”

It was tough for Anxia not to laugh, especially when she saw the shocked expression on that woman. Ah, this son of hers was really good at acting.

Elliot’s dual role was a child who showed courage to protect himself. Elliot and Anxia knew that Loraine Shu would never hurt Elliot with her own hands, and Loraine thought that Elliot would never dare to fight against her or rebuke her forever.

But now... Elliot spoke firmly as if giving her the order to grant the boy’s desire, numbing Loraine’s brain muscle.

Was this the Xiao Guang she knew? Why was this kid suddenly blatantly reprimanding her? Loraine Shu could only ponder silently in her head.

Elliot used petty methods all this time and acted like an innocent child who knew nothing when he wanted something. But this time, Elliot wasn’t playing and looked her straight in the eyes like an adult.

Anxia thought that Elliot was acting at this time and complimented his acting, but Elliot and Loraine Shu knew that Elliot was not acting at this time.
