My Husband Warm The Bed (Karen Daly) novel Chapter 1430

Vanessa put the groceries that she had bought in the kitchen and walked up to Lawrie's side. "Lawrie, aren't you happy that I'm back home?"

"Mommy?" Lawrie rubbed his eyes, as if he did not believe what he had just seen. In the past, he would always have to wait for a few days before he could see his mother. Although Vanessa promised him that she would come home that night to keep him company, he did not hold out much hope about it. He knew that the more hopeful he was, the more disappointed he would be.

"Lawrie!" Vanessa was heartbroken when she pulled Lawrie into her arms. "I promised you that I'll come home to keep you company so I'll be here no matter what. If I'm coming home late because of work, I'll definitely give you a call first."

"Okay, Mommy... I'll be a good boy." Lawrie blinked his eyes and finally smiled, showing his tiny white teeth.

Vanessa rubbed his head. "Oh, my silly son. Why are you so silly?"

Lawrie nuzzled in Vanessa's arms and said, "I'm not silly, Mommy. I'm a good boy."

Vanessa kissed him, "Well, my good little boy, tell me, what do you want to eat for dinner tonight?"

Lawrie answered, "I want to eat honey chicken wings."

Vanessa poked his forehead and said, "I knew that you wanted honey chicken wings, so I went to the supermarket to buy the ingredients already. I'll make it for you now, okay?"

Lawrie smiled sweetly. "Okay."

Vanessa picked Lawrie up and said, "Come, let's go make the chicken wings together."

"Ring..."

When Vanessa was about to go to the kitchen, her phone on the coffee table suddenly rang, which stiffened her legs. Could it be Julien Glover Kyle?

There were hardly anyone who would call her. It would usually be either from the Love Family or Julien... Hence, there was half a chance that it was Julien. However, Julien was on a business trip. Vanessa thought that Julien would not call her when he was on his business trips.

It was only a few seconds long, but tons of ideas had already flashed through Vanessa's mind. At the same time, she walked to the coffee table and picked up her phone. With one glance, the caller ID that was displayed on her phone screen confirmed her thoughts. It was indeed Julien who was calling her.

"Lawrie, I have to answer a call now. Can you go play by yourself first?" Vanessa put Lawrie down and picked up the phone. "What's up?"

In the past, although Julien was cold towards her, he would still speak whenever he called her on the phone. However, he was not saying a word at all this time. The other end of the phone was so quiet that Vanessa thought he had already hung up the phone. "Hey, are you there?"

There was still no answer from him. Vanessa added, "If you're not going to speak, I'm going to hang up now."

Julien finally said, "Where are you?"

Wasn't he on a business trip?

Why was he calling her?

Could it be that he had gone to her place again?

Thinking of this, Vanessa was so nervous that she felt like there was a lump in her throat. "I'm out right now."

Julien added, "Come back in half an hour."

Vanessa: "Come, come back? Where?"

Julien hung up the call.

Wasn't he on a business trip? Did he come back already?

Vanessa immediately called Joel Skylar to confirm. "Joel, Mr. Kyle is on a business trip now, right?"

Joel said, "Yes, he is, but there's a rainstorm on the other side so no aircraft are able to land, and the plane Mr. Kyle was supposed to get on couldn't take off either."

Vanessa asked again, "Where is he now?"

Lawrie's felt bad for his mother so he said, "Mommy, let's not eat delicious food then."

Vanessa said, "My silly son, I still have the money to buy you lots of delicious food. Don't worry, okay?"

Lawrie said, "Don't work for that big bad guy anymore then, Mommy."

Vanessa stroked Lawrie's head. "Lawrie, every adult has to go to work."

Lawrie said, "I want to grow up quickly and I will to go work instead. I will not let that big bad guy bully you anymore."

Vanessa did not know why did Lawrie firmly believed that Julien was a bad guy. She felt that it was useless to explain to him anyway, so she said, "Okay, I'll wait for you to grow up. Then, you can earn money and buy delicious food for me, okay?"

"Yes. My Mommy is a good girl." Lawrie rubbed Vanessa's head. "Let's make chicken wings now."

Vanessa curled her lips into a smile. "Yes, Sir!"

A friend's son?

A friend's son?

How could Vanessa have a friend Julien was unaware of?

Also, that cheeky child called him a 'big bad guy'?! It seemed that Vanessa had often spoken ill of him in front of others.

Julien spun his phone and after thinking for a while, he dialled a phone number. The call got through almost immediately. "Mr. Kyle, what can I do for you?"

"I want you to look into Van..." Julien stopped halfway through his sentence. He thought over and over again, and finally said, "It's okay, you can go about your business."
