Chapter405
Before, he knew that if he mentioned mom, dad would get
upset.
But during this time, Krista didn’t come over, and she didn’t go to the school to see him either. Every day, it was people from the McConnell’s villa who picked him up. A lot of classmates asked him why his pretty mom didn’t come to pick him up, and he
didn’t know how to answer.
Every time he contacted Krista, Krista said she was busy and
couldn’t get away, so she couldn’t go see him, and also told him
your mom is back.
Although it wasn’t said out loud, he could still feel it–it must
have been because of his mom that Krista didn’t dare get close to
him.
So, Emery let go of Krista’s hand, walked up to Bethany, and
whispered, “Mom, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that, I just

could actually talk.
Bethany looked at Emery coldly, “I’m going to talk, are you
happy or not?”
Happy or not happy?
Emery didn’t know, and felt complicated.
It was totally messed up.
Why didn’t mom speak up earlier?
Chapter405
He already made others think Krista was his mom in front of
people. Now that his real mom could talk, if he suddenly
changed moms again, what would people think of him?
He felt like he was put in a really passive position.
Terrence came over with a cane, took Emery’s hand, and said
softly, “Hurry up and congratulate Mom on getting better. She
can talk from now on.””
Emery didn’t even know what to say.
Bethany glanced at Terrence, “I didn’t need his congratulations.”
Then, without looking back, went straight into the master
bedroom.
