Chapter 15
Son
The most untouchable part of Leon’s heart was repeatedly dug out and mentioned in public. His eyes were red as he glared at David.
If his gaze could tear a person apart, David would probably have been torn into pieces.
Ron tried his best to clamp down on Leon’s arm, but he was extremely impatient with David, who was constantly stirring up trouble. He could tell that David was a troublemaker. He was probably the one who had caused tonight’s incident!
At this moment, Vivian finally saw Leon’s face. She was sure that this was her son at a glance because their appearances were too similar, their ages and names matched, and most importantly, the telepathy between mother and son.
Seeing that her eldest son was being bullied, Vivian quickly stepped forward and gave David two tight slaps!
Vivian’s sudden appearance stunned everyone. Andy and the other two immediately surrounded Vivian in the middle.
“These two slaps are to tell you that there’s someone in charge of Leon! You can’t just bully anyone!”
Then, she turned around and identified herself to the police officers. “Police officer! I’m Leon’s Mother. Someone hit my son, I’m going to report to the police!”
Leon looked at Vivian in a daze. His memory of his mother was still stuck at a very young age, but his memory had long been blurred, and only an afterimage was left.
The onlookers were dizzy from the shocking reversal. Leon was very famous in the town. Because of David’s deliberate publicity, everyone knew that he was the child of the Miller Family in the suburbs.
He also knew that his mother ran away with someone when he was five, and his father left the town when he was seven. No one had seen him since.
None of his father’s siblings were willing to take care of him. Leon had been living with his grandfather since he was 7 years old, until his grandfather passed away three years ago. His house was also taken over by his uncle’s family. He was chased out to the streets and could only rely on working at night at the supper stall to earn a little living expenses.
Everyone on the street could laugh at and bully him. If he hadn’t become better in the past two years, others wouldn’t have been able to take advantage of him, and he would have been beaten up more often.
Seeing Vivian’s unyielding attitude, the police took all the people who were fighting back to the police station.
Leon didn’t say anything. He just lowered his eyes and walked forward.
It was the first time that Vivian had seen her eldest son, and she was a little nervous, especially when she thought of his tragic childhood in the book. Her heart ached.
This incident was the trigger for Leon’s dark side, but this time, she should have come in time, right? Looking at the 14-year-old boy, Vivian comforted him, “Leon, don’t be afraid. Mommy will take care of everything.”
Leon lowered his eyes and did not dare to look at Vivian. He was afraid that all of this was just a fantasy. After all, this was not the first time he had such a fantasy.
Leon’s silence made Vivian smile awkwardly.
Allen looked at the young and beautiful Vivian in disbelief, but their similar features made him feel that it was all real. He gently touched Leon’s arm and asked carefully, “Leon, this should be your Mother, right? You two look quite similar.”
Leon glanced at Allen. “You can see her? ”
Allen frowned and replied matter-of-factly, “Of course, I’m not blind.”
Vivian listened to the conversation with her ears perked up. She felt bitter in her heart. This child couldn’t believe that she would really appear.
Looking at the boy who was half a head shorter than her, Vivian stepped forward and held his hand. She said softly, “This time, Mom came back to bring you to my side. I hope you can give me a chance to take care of you!”
When Leon felt the warmth of Vivian’s palm, he immediately turned to look at Vivian. Looking at this overly young woman, he felt a little choked up.
I’m fine by myself, “He turned around and said coldly. I don’t need you guys!”
Leon felt the temperature of his palm drop. His heart ached and tears welled up in his eyes.
Humph, as expected, his rejection was what she wanted to hear. What about bringing him to her side, it was all a lie!
However, the next moment, his shoulders were held by a pair of soft arms. A gentle voice sounded again, “Leon, you’ve been alone for so many years. Mom has always remembered you and sincerely wanted to take care of you.”
Leon fell silent again. Vivian knew that she had a long way to go. This child had been hurt too much. Some wounds would still leave a scar in his heart even if they were healed.
