“Joshua, get away from me!” Christy whispered angrily.
She was so furious that steam seemed to be coming from her head.
“Don’t be so loud; what if you wake Leslie up?” Joshua grinned mischievously, sitting next to her, refusing to budge.
If looks could kill, Joshua would probably be dead by now.
Hold it in!
For Leslie’s sake, Christy had no choice but to stay silent and ignore Joshua.
Soon, Clara finally had enough of the roller coaster and returned with Alan.
Seeing Daddy and Mommy sitting quietly together on the bench, with baby Leslie asleep in Mommy’s arms, Clara giggled.
It was the first time she had seen Daddy and Mommy sitting together so peacefully without arguing!
Could it be that Daddy had made progress?
Clara ran to Christy’s side and asked excitedly. “Mommy, did Daddy take good care of you?”
Uh!
Upon hearing this, Christy became even more irritated.
Joshua was clearly a big bad wolf, always taking advantage of her, and this was considered taking care of her?
“Clara, your Daddy is the most reliable man in the world. How could he not have taken good care of your Mommy?” Joshua preemptively answered Clara’s question, looking smugly at Christy.
Christy glared at Joshua, fuming.
Joshua’s thick–skinned behavior once again challenged her perception.
How could he blatantly lie in front of the innocent and lovely Clara without a hint of embarrassment?
Christy’s face flushed with anger, but she couldn’t bring herself to tell her five–year–old daughter that her Daddy had molested Mommy again, could she?
Unable to speak, she felt as if she was a mute eating bitter melon, only she knew her own bitterness.
The man captured her weakness, knowing that she wouldn’t expose him in front of their daughter, so he acted with such impunity.
In the end, Christy could only remain silent.
“Well, you see? It will a miracle if your mom doesn’t scold me.” Joshua laughed triumphantly.
“Wow! Daddy, you’re great! You have to keep treating Mommy well from now on!” Clara innocently said,
“Actually, my Mommy is just tough on the outside but soft on the inside. If you care about her more and understand her better, she will gradually accept you. Daddy, keep up the good work! I believe in you!”
“Definitely!” Joshua made a victory sign to his daughter, then looked at Christy smugly, like a victorious general flaunting his medals.
Christy felt like a living volcano because of him.
Alan watched hesitant Christy and the man who was gloating, sensing that there had been a silent war here.
“Mommy, are you thirsty? I’ll get you some water.” Alan ran to the company’s concession stand, got a bottle of mineral water from an employee wearing an animal costume, and returned to Christy’s side.
Normally, customers had to pay for drinks at the concession stand.
However, who would dare to charge Alan there? Did they want to be fired?
Since Christy was holding Leslie and it was inconvenient for her to drink water, Alan thoughtfully opened the bottle and held it with his small hands, feeding it to Christy himself.
“Mommy, drink slowly, don’t choke.” Alan kindly reminded her, his gentle, tender voice melting hearts.
The little boy already exuded the charm of a man.
Christy was initially infuriated by the man, but when she encountered Alan, the gentle and considerate little boy, her anger was instantly extinguished.
Alan was truly wonderfull
With Alan around, the world was filled with warmth.
Chapter 97
While children of other families at this age were still being pampered by adults, enjoying the indulgence of grown–ups, and living a carefree childhood, her own son, only five years old, was so sensible, so filial, and even knew how to take care of his mother.
Joshua felt incredibly fortunate just watching, thinking that this woman had such a good life, having a lovely daughter and at son who was so understanding. He wished his son would serve him water as well!
Seeing the man staring at her like a drooling wolf. Alan said unhappily.
“How can you take good care of mom? You didn’t even notice she was thirsty. How do you take care of people?”
Uh!
His son’s words were irrefutable!
Having his bluff called, Joshua’s face turned red, feeling that Alan was so hard to deal with!
Christy laughed triumphantly.
Alan was truly helpful.
He had helped her regain face from the humiliation she suffered from the man.
How delightful was that?
At that moment, Leslie rubbed his sleepy eyes and woke up.
Seeing everyone gathered around him while he was still lying in Christy’s arms, he felt embarrassed.
God!
How long had they been watching him?
Having slept during a rare trip to an amusement park, would they think he was a killjoy?
He quickly propped himself up from Christy’s embrace, shyly saying.‘
“Sorry… I caused you trouble… I won’t dare to do it again next time, please don’t be angry…”
What he feared most was the gaze of Alan.
He was lying in the embrace of Alan’s mother.
That embrace belonged exclusively to Alan and Clara!
Would they be annoyed with him?
At that moment, Leslie’s heart was very apprehensive.
Seeing Leslie’s frightened expression, Alan walked over and laughed scornfully,
“Leslie, why are you apologizing? We’re brothers, there’s nothing to fuss about. Don’t say such things in front of me again. It’s all because I am not attentive enough and didn’t notice you were exhausted.”
“Alan, I’m finel” Leslie got down from Christy’s embrace, and admittedly, Alan’s words immediately calmed his uneasy heart.
He thought Alan was very righteous, even willing to share his mother with him.
Compared to himself, he felt truly ashamed!
At that moment, a worker dressed in a bear costume came over with a bunch of colorful balloons
“Alan, Leslie, the balloons over there are so beautiful!” Clara was extremely excited upon seeing the balloons.
“These balloons animal’s head
are from Dreamland Park for the kids, everyone gets one!” The worker’s friendly voice came from the cute
“Wow! Let’s go get the balloons! Clara couldn’t wait any longer.
The three children walked up to the worker and each received their own little balloon.
Clara was a pink–loving little princess, even choosing a pink balloon.
Alan picked a blue one, while Leslie liked purple.
The three children played with balloons on the lawn.
Clara chased her pink balloon around the lawn, running like a lovely little fairy.
Alan and Leslie were sitting on the grass, resting, while Clara seemed like a happy little bird, always full of energy and didn’t need Alan’s care.
Now, Alan was more concerned about Leslie, as he discovered that Leslie’s constitution and stamina were even worse than he

had imagined.
With lush green grass beneath their feet and a colorful, fairy–tale world around them, Leslie felt as if he were in a dream. In the Melendez family, he had to learn a variety of knowledge and etiquette every day, always behaving properly. He had never experienced the freedom of sitting on the grass, gazing at the blue sky, and breathing in the fresh, fragrant air.
