Robert Reed still remembers this five years of silent hatred! Back then, after Nancy was taken away in her condition, there was no news, and all these years, they’ve been worried every day. Even if she was in a coma, even if she was a vegetative person who could never wake up, the Allen family should have informed them. Edward Allen hurriedly explained: "No, no, I’m not here to take her away. She wants to return to Riverwood City, and our parents are worried, so they secretly asked me to follow her back. I’m waiting here, but there are some things about her physical condition I want to tell you." Only then did Robert Reed’s anger subside a bit. Edward Allen handed a bag of medicine to Robert Reed, along with a list that had been written in advance, explaining: "These medicines inside are what she needs to take daily. She was in a coma for too long, her bodily functions need recovery, and her heart is not very good either, she needs to take medicine regularly. But she’s reluctant to take them, so I’ve written down the dosages, hoping Old Mr. Reed can supervise." Robert Reed stored away the medicine, saying: "That’s more like it." Edward Allen continued to ramble: "Also, when she walks now, her body will be in pain, but she can’t just stay inactive, so every day, she should move moderately. Her throat is also in need of care, so she shouldn’t force herself to talk. Because of her physical weakness, she is very sleepy now, and too intense light will make her uncomfortable, and also..." The dissatisfaction on Robert Reed’s face gradually disappeared, he can feel that the Allen family truly cares for Nancy. Perhaps it’s not that they don’t want to talk, it’s just that Nancy’s coma was too painful for them, and they were unwilling to face it. Forget it, considering Nancy has been well taken care of even after being in a coma for five years, there’s no need to hold it against them. Robert Reed patiently listened to Edward Allen’s rambling, then said: "I understand, I will be careful, if your parents are so worried, why don’t they come to Riverwood City?" "The family company..." Edward Allen said a few words but quickly stopped: "Maybe later, if Sister wants to stay in Riverwood City, then our whole family will move here." Robert Reed was not familiar with the Allen family, so he did not ask further questions. After Edward Allen explained everything clearly, he only asked Old Mr. Reed not to tell his sister that he came over and then left quickly. In the children’s room of Ink Manor. Early in the morning, Sophie woke up. Upon waking, she saw someone sleeping beside her, rubbed her eyes, a little confused. After three years old, she became a big kid and didn’t need anyone to sleep with her anymore. Rubbed her eyes several times, she saw the person beside her clearly, and a bright smile appeared on her little face. Sophie didn’t make a sound and just lay on the pillow, looking at Nancy. Mom is really pretty, even prettier than the ones in Grandpa’s paintings. Later she wants to gather all the kids nearby, let everyone see, who’s mom is the prettiest! The once Nancy used to be startled from sleep and couldn’t sleep soundly. Until five years ago when she faced death as if she died once, those nightmares that entangled her finally found peace. Perhaps it was too hard to sleep well in the past, she now sleeps as a revenge, Nancy has become somewhat sleepy. It was already ten in the morning, and Nancy still hadn’t woken up. In the early morning, Robert Reed had been waiting for three hours, breakfast cooled and reheated, reheated and cooled several times, finally couldn’t resist knocking on the door. The knocking woke up Nancy. She opened her eyes with a sliver of grouchiness from getting up and saw the little one sitting beside her, hands supporting the small face, eyes unblinking as they watched her. Seeing her awake, Sophie’s childlike voice excitedly called, "Mom!" Those three points of getting up grouch disappeared. This child is really adorable. Nancy didn’t like kids. She felt that children, as creatures, frequently cried and acted unreasonably; even well-behaved children, she wouldn’t approach. But now facing her own child, she changed her once deep-rooted views. Kids are super adorable, okay! Knowing her mom can’t speak now, Sophie went on talking by herself: "We should get up quickly, Grandpa said going to bed early and waking early is good for health, not letting everyone sleep in, but mom don’t worry, if you get criticized today, Sophie will help cover for you!" The kid’s small face puffed up, very loyal. Made Nancy feel happy early in the morning. Seeing it’s already ten o’clock, the child still waiting by the side, probably didn’t have breakfast, Nancy suddenly felt sorry. She picked up the small notebook beside her to write. Seeing this, like knowing what Nancy wanted to say, Sophie directly said: "Mom doesn’t need to say, I know. In the future, when I wake up, I will get up by myself to have breakfast." Nancy smiled knowingly. The two washed up together then went out. Sophie originally thought she would be scolded, but Grandpa just concernedly said: "Next time get up a bit earlier, too late you won’t have time to eat breakfast, it’s not good for the body." Sophie blinked eyes, a bit confused. Just as Sophie was about to speak, Robert Reed looked at her seriously and said: "Your mom’s health is poor so she can be casual, but you must get up early and go to bed early. You missed reading this morning, after eating fill it in yourself!" Sophie nodded quickly, "Don’t worry Grandpa, I’m good!" Robert Reed is very attentive in teaching Sophie, serious when he should be, and pampering when the child is bullied, supporting her enough to confront other families. Sophie always remembers, today she is going to find Dad. But after breakfast, she quietly sat at her small table, took a book with Pinyin, and started reading. Five-year-old child, reading ability amazed Amelia Wright. Sophie, due to health reasons, even at five hadn’t attended kindergarten, has always been taught directly by Robert Reed. This kid is smart; at just five, learns more things than other elementary school students. And perhaps it’s grown up in Ink Manor, naturally loves painting. Ink Manor, from top to bottom, three floors, even the corridors everywhere are hanging Sophie’s paintings. Draws some small animals, small houses, flowers and grasses, ants and bugs, everything seen in the child’s eyes is vividly painted. With smooth brushstrokes, that kind of vivid collision of colors, a world of innocence, something adults don’t understand. Ink Manor is grand and upscale. But Sophie’s paintings hung within not only do not clash but seem to infuse Ink Manor with a touch of vitality, making the whole place look lively. Robert Reed looks at Nancy looking at the paintings and can’t help but boast: "How about it, Sophie’s talent is alright, she started crawling went to play with paints, learned to grasp a pen, and I taught her to paint." Nancy looked at Robert Reed. Robert Reed quickly said: "Don’t look at me like that, her learning to paint was her own innate interest, not because I forced it. I always think painting has a spirit, forcing learning without inspiration has little meaning." Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵 Nancy nodded, with a growing smile in her eyes. She once said before facing death, if there is a next life, she will cleanly follow the teacher to learn painting. Unexpectedly, the child helped her realize her wish. Cleanly, lovingly, following the teacher to learn painting. Then, the reading stopped over there, and Sophie’s cheerful voice came: "Mom, I’ve finished reading, can we go find Dad now?"
