Domineering Love
Chapter 321 - 321 321 Not Good

Chapter 321: Chapter 321: Not Good Chapter 321: Chapter 321: Not Good Cherish Turner seemed to find solace in this strange city, as she began to chat with Lewis as if she found something to hold onto. Perhaps she felt guilt for the child, so when chatting with him, she was very engaged, sending a lot of emojis and expressing how much she missed him.

Often, before receiving a reply on the other side, she continued to send messages.

But as she sent them, she suddenly thought, “Sweetie, can you read the words Auntie writes? Right, you can actually type now?”

Then she sent a question mark emoji.

William Griffith read Cherish Turner’s messages very carefully and cherished each line. When he saw the latest message, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and for a moment, he didn’t know how to reply.

After some consideration, he cautiously wrote: “My dad had me learn to read a long time ago. I can’t read very difficult words, but I can read simple ones.”

Oh, that’s how it is. Cherish understood, the Griffith family’s elite education is something else indeed.

After chatting a bit, she suddenly didn’t know what to say and stared blankly at her phone.

She inexplicably missed the child very much, especially after arriving in Kyoto City. This feeling became even more intense.

She didn’t know whether she was missing William Griffith or if it was just purely missing Lewis.

The message on the other end came over again, which made Cherish change her mind slightly:

“Auntie, my dad misses you a lot. Do you miss him?”

The child’s tone didn’t make Cherish Turner doubt it, but how should she answer? Saying she didn’t miss him would be lying, but saying she did, she was afraid Lewis would tell William Griffith.

On the other side, William, in front of his phone, also held his breath, his heart racing with anxiety.

Cherish Turner didn’t immediately reply. William Griffith thought, maybe he won’t get her answer, or maybe she’s not by her phone and went to do something else?

But just as he was about to give up, a reply came through from the other side, “How is your dad doing lately?”

Almost immediately, William replied:

“Not good.”

The words “not good,” felt like two stuffy and heavy fists, striking Cherish’s heart.

Knowing full well that he couldn’t possibly be doing well, why would she still ask a question like this? It was no help to him and only hurt herself.

There was nothing left to say. William also blamed himself for replying too impulsively to such a text. How would Cherish respond?

So he quickly added: “But don’t worry, I will comfort him well. As long as Auntie comes back soon, my dad will definitely be full of energy!”

Haha, he even knows how to use the idiom “full of energy.” It seems this little guy has been really putting effort into his studies recently.

Cherish’s mood improved significantly. So, she switched to voice mode and sent a message:

“Lewis is such a good boy. You have to be good and wait for Auntie to come back.”

Then she sent a hugging emoji, along with the text: It’s getting late, go to bed early, bye.

William was startled by this message. He hardly ever used this kind of messaging app. As he cautiously opened it, Cherish Turner’s voice came through.

The first time he heard it, it felt like ages since they spoke. Then, he listened for a second time and then a third…

That night, after replying to Cherish’s good night message, William slept holding his phone. That night, he listened to Cherish’s voice message over and over again before finally falling asleep.
