Chapter 43 Beauty Meets A Bigger Beauty



After bathing Justin, she dressed him up, combed his hair and held it in a pony tail. Then she sat him down on the bed and gave him her brother's old tablet from earth.

It was the only personal item from home which survived the apocalypse with her. It was filled with cartoons, songs and so many animated and horror movies. She was the one that added the horror movies.

Anytime she missed him, she would switch on the tab and watch one of these old animations. Looking at Justin's enchanted look on the bed, she thought that maybe the tab had finally found a new owner.

She took her own bath quickly and dressed in a white and yellow floral long sleeved sun dress. Her black hair had been polished with hair wax. Her hair appeared to be thick and glossy.

She wore white flat slippers on her feet and a white pearly bracelet on her right hand.

"Wow, mummy you look beautiful." Justin said happily when he saw her.

"Really, how beautiful?" she responded.

"Like the most beautiful mummy in the world." he answered.

She pinched his cheek and replied, "And you are the most beautiful baby in the world."

"Yes I am." he replied as he nodded his small head.

Scarlet laughed because of how shameless Justin was. He accepted her compliment without the slightest bit of hesitation. Although, she had to admit that his appearance today was superb.

She had dressed him in a long black denim dungaree with a red shirt, a small bow tie and white sneakers. He looked so adorable that she wanted to pepper his whole face with kisses. You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

She could not hold back the gushing need to kiss his cheeks and she did so. Then she took his hand , "Let's go and welcome your father." she told him.

Justin looked slightly hesitant.

Justin looked very doubtful because he had never heard about such a thing.

"What kind of punishment?" he asked.

"Uhm, if I lie, I will turn into a dog like Severus."

"Hi-hi," Justin giggled "You can't turn into a dog mummy."

"Well I will if I break my promise. Will you trust me now?"

"Okay." he answered.

Having alleviated that crisis for now, mother and son left the bedroom and walked to the living room. It was where she was assuming that Esong was being hosted.

Everywhere she passed, the sweet scent of her vanilla perfume remained. behind. A little butterfly followed the scent and landed on her shoulder without her noticing.

She found a higher number of people than she had been expecting to see crammed into the small living room. She could easily discern the new faces in the room.

From memory, she recognized Esong Wu. He was the one sitting dominantly in the center with all eyes on him as if he was the lord of this house. Looking at his pictures and videos was one thing but seeing him was a whole new world.

Esong Wu could quite easily be the most handsome man she had ever seen in her two lives. His long silver hair was falling to his shoulders and it looked so unreal because it was denser and glossier than Justin's. The pupils of his eyes were black, too black in her opinion. His jaw was sharp and strong as if it had been carefully carved and smoothly set.

Why did his lips look soft!!!!!!..A general should have rough looks and maybe some scars. It was not fair for all this beauty to be monopolized by just one man. He was even more beautiful than she was!!!

His physique was extremely eye catching for he was broad but not too broad.

She thought that he probably had abs underneath all that armor. No wonder women in the Sun star empire hated Scarlet.

He was looking at her and she found herself unnerved and fascinated too.

She found herself blurting out, "If you look like this, I would love to see what your father looks like."
