Chapter 543: The Severance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Julie’s POV:
1 never thought this day would come so soon – I saw him, my child, my treasure, my motivation to live.
My Little Jack.
How long had it been? Oh, it had been ten years. That small, soft child who could only act cute in my arms had grown so big.
He was thin and fair and had a face that was even cuter than the son of god in myths. Even though he looked at me with a strange gaze, I could still feel a message spreading from the bottom of my heart.
’My child! That’s my child!’
I threw away the flour or something else in my arms. 1 stumbled over, wanting to hug my child.
Even after so many years, 1 remembered the last time I held him. A warm and lively little creature that relied on me wholeheartedly. At that moment, he was his whole world, and he was my whole world.
1 wanted to say something, to tell about the four years of this decade, to tell about my love that surged like the tide. But 1 couldn’t say anything because tears and sobs had already gushed out.
“Jack… My child…”
1 was just one step away from touching him. 1 could almost feel the warmth emanating from Jack’s body. It made me feel gratified and at ease.
However-
“Stop, madam.”
The childish voice sounded so cold, like Jack’s gaze when he looked at me.
After he gave me the order, I realized 1 couldn’t move. It was as if my body had sunk into an invisible cement. I couldn’t even move a finger.
This caused me to maintain a rather comical running posture, which seemed to disgust Jack. I saw him frown, and 1 could move again.
I was not a fool. I understood what Jack’s attitude meant. He didn’t miss me as much as I missed him. He even hated me. He looked at me like he was looking at a moldy piece of cheese. The only thing he could think of was how to throw me away.
“Jack…” I tried to recall his memories of me, but all I got was an even more dissatisfied look.
” Mind your manners, Madam,” he said. “1 don’t want to remind you again.”
This made me feel like I had fallen into an ice cave.
My angel, my child, the warm and soft baby in my memory, was gone. In its place was this strange and arrogant child.
I understood that he wasn’t even two years old when we parted, so he was expected not to remember me. But how could I accept this calmly? That was my child! That was my life!
I couldn’t help but wonder if Jack didn’t remember me. Did the Evaria Family do something?nov????????????????????\????\o/????
This devil family has always treated me as a thorn in their side. Did they deliberately provoke my relationship with Jack? Did they lie to Jack? That made him think that 1 abandoned him, so why he hated me so much?
‘No! It’s not like that! My child, your mother has always missed you. Please listen to my explanation!’
I tried to say something, but just as I opened my mouth, I realized I couldn’t move again.
” You’re really persistent.” Jack’s face was gloomy. Such an expression should not appear on a twelve-year-old child. “If you can’t shut up, then let me help you.”
That gloomy gaze made me despair.
No, how could this be…
Jack didn’t care what I thought. He kicked the box beside him in disgust and sat on it reluctantly. He even adjusted himself into a comfortable position.
“I know who you are, Madam, but with all due respect, 1 can’t call you mother’. I don’t need your understanding because there’s no need for that.” Jack’s face was hidden in the shadows, so I could only see his shockingly bright eyes.
“We weren’t allowed to meet. To be honest, there’s nothing to regret. However, I still have a basic curiosity about you. Seeing you today, your manners disappoint me. I’m beginning to understand why those old things don’t acknowledge you. You don’t have the qualifications to become the mother of a king.”
What was he saying? Why didn’t I understand? My child, how did those demons brainwash you?
No matter how much I struggled in my heart, it was useless. I seemed to have become a statue, unable to control my limbs.
Suddenly, Jack laughed, which made him look livelier, but his words were still as cold as ever. “Brainwash? Maybe, but I’m tired of the chattering of those old things. I’m already twelve years old. I should come out and see what the world looks like instead of hiding in a dark corner and listening to a bunch of old men talk nonsense.”
I realized that Jack could know what 1 was thinking. What was going on?
Jack answered without me asking, “Speaking of which, this is the only thing you deserve respect and gratitude for, Madam. You are still considered qualified to be the mother, allowing me to possess such precious power. For this reason, it’s not a waste for you to live for another ten years.”
What power? What was he talking about?
Wait a minute.
Memories from a long time ago surfaced again.
Could my mind be under control?
Sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you very much!
