Chapter 11

Auteur: Sad Toadito
After that, we went to another mall to buy clothes for Emma. By the time I got her into a better mood, the sky had already gone dark.

Jamie asked for my location and came to pick her up.

Some time later, he was standing across the street as I walked toward him with Emma in my arms.

A black sedan suddenly sped toward us in that instant. I was so frightened that I instinctively ran forward.

However, the car seemed aimed straight at me, as if the driver was determined to kill me.

  • I Gave Them Freedom   Chapter 12

    After the situation with Megan was handled, I immediately flew back to Oceanton.On one hand, I truly missed my own home and Snowy. On the other hand, I also wanted to get away from Charlie and Nigel's constant pestering.But I had not expected Charlie to follow me all the way to Oceanton.That night, my doorbell rang. I saw Charlie standing outside with Nigel. I did not open the door, and I only spoke to them through the video doorbell. "Don't come and disturb my life again."Nigel banged the door. "Mommy, don't you want me anymore?!"I took a sip of water, and my parched throat felt much better. Then, I coughed lightly and said, "I'll always be your mother on paper, but I don't expect anything from you anymore. Do you understand that, Nigel?"While a child could not understand, Charlie could.He began to sob, "Can't you give me another chance? I love you."I scoffed. "I gave you plenty of chances, but I don't love you anymore. I don't care about your love anymore either. All

By the time I got her into a better mood, the sky had already gone dark.Jamie asked for my location and came to pick her up.Some time later, he was standing across the street as I walked toward him with Emma in my arms.A black sedan suddenly sped toward us in that instant. I was so frightened that I instinctively ran forward.However, the car seemed aimed straight at me, as if the driver was determined to kill me.The next moment, I heard a heart-wrenching scream beside my ear. "Ida!"A powerful force knocked me into the grass on the other side of the road, and sharp branches and thorns cut into my skin.The first thing I did was to check on Emma. She was not hurt, and she was only frightened and frozen in shock in my arms.Jamie ran over and pulled both of us into his arms, trembling uncontrollably. "Are you okay? Are either of you hurt?"I shook my head, then looked at Charlie, who was lying on the ground and gr

    Nigel cried so hard he could barely breathe.After making sure Emma was alright, I had no choice but to hold Nigel and comfort him. "Nigel, I won't take you with me, but I'll talk to your dad and help work out a better arrangement."I tried to keep my voice gentle, but Nigel had already become stubborn. When he heard what I said, his eyes widened, and he immediately turned his hostility toward Emma, who was standing nearby. "It's all because of that mute girl, right? You want to be her mommy, so you don't want me anymore!"His voice was sharp and piercing, and there was no difference compared to the time he accused me of in the past. I was disappointed, but not that disappointed.I simply let go of him and straightened my back.Charlie arrived quickly. When he got there, Nigel was still crying, and Megan was standing nearby with a dark expression.He looked at me and asked, "What happened?"I pulled Nigel in front of him. "Charlie, if you don't want to take care of your son, at

    I barely managed to catch the last flight back to Oceanton.By the time I landed, it was almost midnight, so I had no choice but to pick up Snowy the next day.When I came out of the bathroom, there were already more than a dozen missed calls on my phone.They were all from Jamie.I called back, and Emma's timid voice came through from the other end.My heart filled with a soft ache. But no matter what I said, Emma kept calling for me. Sometimes she called me 'Mommy', and sometimes she called me 'Ida'.In the end, she went quiet, and Jamie took the phone."Ida, can I bring Emma to see you in the future? I always thought she would never be able to speak, but she can talk to you. I...""Of course, Jamie. I'm a mother too." As parents, we would do anything for our children.After that, I had a relatively peaceful stretch of time. Charlie also moved quickly, transferring the money into my account in batches.Because of Emma, I traveled back and forth between Oceanton and Linford.

    I stopped walking, and my heart felt as if something heavy was pressing into it. It was… heartbreaking.Jamie also froze as he held Emma tightly. "Emma, what did you just say? You spoke, didn't you?"Emma ignored him and only held on to my clothes tighter. "Mommy."I pressed my lips tighter and looked down at her. "I'm not your mommy."But Emma was stubborn and kept calling me 'Mommy' repeatedly. Nigel, who was curled up in Megan's arms, flew into a rage. He ran and slammed into Emma. "This is my mommy! You can't steal her from me! This is my mommy!"The two children almost started fighting again.I quickly picked Emma up and put her back into Jamie's arms. He was still stunned, but he instinctively held her close.I sighed and held Nigel back. "Nigel, you've already chosen someone else, so I'm not your mommy anymore."Then, I looked at Emma. "Emma, I'm not your mommy either. You can call me Ida."Emma pursed her lips, but when she opened her mouth, she still called me 'Mommy'

  • I Gave Them Freedom   Chapter 7

    This was the first time I was finding out Jamie had a daughter who also went to the same preschool as Nigel.I followed Jamie into the office, and a little boy's loud sobs came from inside. When I walked in, I saw Nigel crying his eyes out, while Jamie's daughter stood there wiping her tears. There was an obvious scratch on her face. When she saw Jamie, she cried even harder, her hands gesturing nonstop.I stopped. The girl was a mute.Nigel saw me too. His lips trembled, and he cried even harder, reaching out his hands for me to pick him up.I pursed my lips and looked at the teacher. "What happened here, Miss?"The teacher looked concerned and pulled me into the hallway by my sleeve. "You're Nigel's mom, right? How could you teach him to bully a girl? Especially when Emma has special needs."I understood what had happened in just a few words.Emma was a quiet girl, and she was a little insecure because she could not speak. But Nigel had splashed hot water all over her and scra
