Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 460

"Okay." The guard was used to it. Although Lindsey did not come frequently, he had a deep impression of her.

That was because every time she came here, her face looked a little like she wanted to give up on life. However, the amazing thing was that she always managed to recover from that state.

Lindsey stood there for a while and left. It was almost time for Dezi to be done with school and she had promised him to pick him up.

At this moment, Lindsey was grateful that she was not just someone's wife, but also the mother of a child.

During this time, Dezi had been very well-behaved and no longer asked about Zayn. Thus, even though she felt overwhelmed with emotions, Lindsey held back and did not show it in front of her child.

"What did you do in class today?" Lindsey held Dezi's hand and asked him while waiting for the elevator.

Little Dezi pointed to his mouth, and his face clearly looked a bit forlorn.

Lindsey understood what he meant and squatted down to look at him. She held his hands and asked, "Is it nursery rhymes?"

Dezi nodded. Since he could not speak, he could only watch while the teacher taught the class. He could not sing along, so he could not interact with the teacher. This happened from time to time. The teacher would usually arrange for him to go out and play games, but Dezi had never looked so down before.

Lindsey looked serious and lifted his little head. "What's going on? Tell Mommy about it."

The little guy pouted and blinked his eyes. Then, tears gradually welled up in his eyes.

Lindsey's heart seemed to be squeezed. Her eyes had a mix of worry and fear, and a hint of agony as she reached out and pulled Dezi into her arms. "Baby, don't cry. Tell Mommy what happened, okay?"

She kissed Dezi on the forehead. "Did the other kids bully you?"

The tears in Dezi's eyes streamed down his cheeks continuously. Before Lindsey could wipe it away, there was more.

His tears made Lindsey feel like her heart was baking in a furnace. It was the first time Lindsey had seen Dezi crying like a calm little adult who was very aggrieved.

Most of the time, this child was quiet and understanding. He began to smile more at others and would share things he liked. He would also feed what he loved to his mother first. Lindsey never felt that her child was abnormal compared to other children just because he could not speak. On the contrary, Dezi was smarter and more understanding than other children his age.

This was the reason why Lindsey and Zayn were reluctant to send Dezi to a special needs school after discussing it. Dezi was actually a normal kid and not speaking was just temporary due to his past trauma.

The little one in front of her, whose eyes had been washed by tears, suddenly brightened up, then nodded heavily.

Lindsey then stood up and took his hand. "Let's go home and eat."

Even though she advised Dezi not to care about such comments, she still felt heartbroken. The next day, Lindsey sent Dezi to school and watched Dezi enter the classroom. She then stayed and talked to the teacher.

It would be fine if this was just one child’s passing comment, but if all the kids in the kindergarten were to verbally attack Dezi like this, it would harm Dezi's mental health over time.

The teacher felt ashamed when she heard Lindsey talk about the incident. "Actually, all the kids in the kindergarten are very friendly to Dezi. This incident is due to our negligence of not guiding the kids correctly. However, only that one child said that, and last night, his parents transferred him to another school."

When Dezi was first sent here, Lindsey already talked to the teacher and kindergarten director about Dezi’s condition. She knew that children were curious and that their words were usually very straightforward without any bad intentions. When the teacher saw that there was a new student who could not speak, she was afraid that other kids would bully the child, so the kindergarten promised to guide the kids properly, but she did not expect such a thing to happen.

Lindsey was surprised by the teacher’s words. "I don’t mean that. I don’t blame you guys. I’m just worried about Dezi. Also...that kid even transferred schools overnight?"

The teacher also felt that it was very strange. At that time, the kid’s parents were very anxious, almost as if something was chasing after them. The kindergarten did not dare to delay them, so they helped them with the transfer procedures last night.
