Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love
Chapter 1088 - Chapter 1088 Chapter 1091 Soothing Ben Lucass Anxiety

Chapter 1088: Chapter 1091: Soothing Ben Lucas’s Anxiety Chapter 1088: Chapter 1091: Soothing Ben Lucas’s Anxiety Lily brought Ben into the bathroom.

She placed the little one on the basin, wet the towel, and wrung it out.

Just about to wipe Ben’s face with the damp towel,

the calm and indifferent look that had been on Ben’s face while outside suddenly melted away.

He looked at his mother, showing a hint of a child’s confusion.

To Lily’s surprise, Ben gently poked her hand with his little hand.

Lily paused and looked down at Ben.

What is the little one up to?

Ben also paused for a moment.

The once-faded cold emotion swiftly returned to cover Ben’s dark eyes.

Lily was about to ask what was wrong when Ben suddenly stretched out his finger and poked her gently.

Once, twice.

Lily: …

Seeing no reaction from Lily and hearing no words,

Ben’s complexion turned even darker than before.

So cool that it almost seemed to condense the steam into ice.

Lily was worried, but she didn’t know what was wrong with Ben.

Could it be that Ben was regretting, regretting recognizing her as his mother?

Ben kept silent, merely poking Lily’s hand in silence.

And the more he poked, the colder his expression became.

Even Lily, faced with such a Ben, was somewhat afraid to speak.

She took a deep breath before mustering the courage to say, “Ben, what’s wrong? You seem unhappy.”

Hmm?

Ben heard his mother’s voice.

The child, who was on the verge of slipping into madness, finally came back to his senses.

He raised his eyes, his shiny almond-shaped eyes meeting Lily’s concerned gaze.

His eyes, which were as dismal as a black hole, finally began to clear up, bit by bit, at that moment.

“You… Mom… this isn’t a dream?”

Lily saw Ben gazing at her in a daze.

Then, very obviously, he let out a long sigh of relief.

“Of course it’s not,” she quickly reassured, “Mom is right here, always here, not a dream. Ben, be assured, Mom promises you. No matter what happens from now on, Mom will always be with you.”

“I…” Ben finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Alright, forever, Mom has to remember.” Once he finished speaking, he hugged Lily and refused to let go.

Just now, when his mom had brought him here and set him down,

because he was suddenly out of his mother’s embrace, he began to feel extremely insecure, even doubting himself.

Ben was just afraid that all of this was only an illusion.

He missed his mom so much; she mattered so much to him.

So, he couldn’t help but poke her, wanting to know if all of this was actually real.

However,

after waiting for a long time, “Mom” didn’t say a word.

Ben suddenly realized that the happiness he thought he had regained, the mom he thought he had found again, might just be a false comfort he had conjured up.

Not getting his mom’s response almost drove Ben into madness.

Fortunately, just then, he suddenly heard his mom’s voice.

That was when Ben discovered that all of this was really true.

His mom had truly come back!

The last bit of unease in his heart was dispelled as well.

Ben showed a smile typical of a child’s innocent tenderness.

Ben buried his face deeply into his mother’s embrace.

He cuddled his mother and said, “Mom, Ben is so happy… Ben is really so happy.”

Ben Lucas isn’t a child of many words.

Neither is he one to speak sweet nothings or to flatter others.

Even at such an excited moment, he could only use two simple words to describe his feelings.

But even if it was just the simple words “so happy,”

Lily could feel Ben’s heartfelt joy.

She smiled, lifted Ben’s little face, and kissed him beneath the tear-streaked cheeks.

“Mom feels the same, Mom is also very happy.”
