Chapter 183 Chapter 183: She Was Deeply Loved
With a curious look, he put his chubby little hands on the rail and rested his chin on it, looking downstairs.
He smiled broadly when he saw Estelle throw herself into his father’s arms.
“Yes, Mr. Mysterious is so handsome. He’s even more handsome than the movie stars! Yohan, you will be as handsome as your father when you grow up.” Mrs. Moorsum said as she nodded in agreement.
“That’s great! And when Yvonne grows up, she will definitely be as beautiful as Mom!” Yohan proudly exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear.
“Yes... Yohan, close your eyes!” Mrs. Moorsum suddenly exclaimed.
Being startled by her, Yohan covered his eyes with his hands immediately and asked, “What’s wrong, Mrs. Moorsum?”
“Well... Nothing. It’s just that... There is some scene not suitable for children to watch,” Mrs. Moorsum responded.
“I know that. Uncle Eric told me before that children can’t watch it when Iron Man is transforming. Mrs. Moorsum, is Dad transforming into a superhero?”
His words amused Mrs. Moorsum, and she couldn’t help chuckling.
Looking at Estelle and Mr. Mysterious, who hugged each other tightly downstairs, she nodded slightly and said, “Yes, your dad has transformed into a superhero.”
“What about Mom?”
“She’s being well protected by your dad.”
Hearing this, Yohan became more excited and jumped for joy. “Mrs. Moorsum, when can I grow up? I want to see my Dad transform into a superhero too!”
Mrs. Moorsum gently caressed his head and said, “You’ll have a chance in the future. Yohan, your Dad, and Mom will go to save the world tonight. Be good and go to bed early, Okay?”
“Okay!” Yohan agreed joyfully.
Downstairs, Cristofer hugged Estelle tightly and sighed with a feeling of contentment.
He wanted to hold her more tightly but didn’t do that when thinking that her incision hadn’t healed.
“Sir.”
“I’m here.”
“You are really Mr. Mysterious, right?”
“Of course,” Cristofer answered.
Estelle took a deep breath and then smelled the familiar fragrance of his cologne.
The faint scent of orange and alcohol was soothing and relieved her.
“Sir, you must have suffered a lot.”
Cristofer chuckled and asked, “Why did you suddenly say that?”
“I’ve just known why you didn’t dare to see me before,” Estelle said as she raised her head from his arms.
It was dusk, and the daylight had almost gone. And the street lights in the neighborhood hadn’t been on yet.
In the dim light, Estelle gazed at his sharp-featured face and the smile on his lips and continued in a soft voice, “Rebecca told me something about your past. And I know that you’ve suffered a lot these years.”
“Rebecca? Did Justin tell her about me? What did she say?” Cristofer raised his eyebrows and asked.
“She told me something about your childhood,” Estelle informed. Speaking of this, she was a little puzzled. “I’ve heard that Cristofer has a twin brother, which is you. But no one in the Hans family has mentioned you, including your parents. It’s so strange.”
Hearing this, Cristofer wrapped his arms around her waist and said after a short pause, “Maybe it’s because... they don’t know that I’m still alive.”
“They thought you were dead?”
“Maybe,” Cristofer uttered quickly. “Estelle, my story is a little complicated. I’ll explain it to you later, okay?”
Leaning against his chest and hearing his gentle voice, Estelle suddenly wanted to cry.
At this moment, she could feel that she was deeply loved.
She hadn’t had such a feeling for a long time and the last time she was hugged like this was when she returned from abroad.
That day, her flight was delayed for four hours. When she arrived at Hadale, it was already three o’clock the next morning.
Estelle had thought that Cristofer would wait for her at the airport terminal. But to her surprise, she saw him as soon as she got off the plane.
It was cold in the early morning, but Cristofer was only wearing a white shirt.
The moment he saw Estelle, the rims of his eyes turned red. Then he rushed up to her and hugged her tightly while whispering in her ear, “Welcome back, Mrs. Hans.”
When touching his cold chest and cold hands, Estelle knew that he must have been waiting for her for a long time, and she couldn’t help feeling distressed.
“It’s so cold outside. Why don’t you wait for me in the arrival hall?”
“But it’s still dark now,” Cristofer said, cupping her face in his hands and gazing at her. “I know that you’re afraid of the dark, so I wanted you to see me as soon as you got off the plane. Estelle, don’t be afraid. I’ll always be by your side.”
At half-past two in the morning, Estelle slept in Cristofer's arms.
She had said she wanted to watch the stars with Mr. Mysterious all night, but she slipped into sleep, unaware of her surroundings.
Gazing at her, Cristofer held her more tightly in his arms, carefully and gently, in case she caught a cold.
At this time, his phone vibrated.
The moment Cristofer saw the caller ID, his face darkened. “Hello?”
“Mr. Hans, Mr. Lopez wants you to go to his place tomorrow.”
Cristofer thought for a while and asked, “What does he want to see me about?”
“I don’t know. He didn’t tell me. But I guess it should be about the same thing he mentioned to you before.”
“Got it.”
“Mr. Hans, will you go there?”
“Yes. It’s time to finish everything between us.”
The next morning, Estelle was awakened by the bright sunshine.
When she woke up, she found that Yohan was sitting on the edge of her bed and looking at her.
“Mom, good morning!” Yohan was happy when she woke up. He held her hand and said in a sweet voice, “Mom, I miss you so much.”
Hearing Yohan's words, Estelle was delighted.
Then she carried Yohan in her arms and let him lay beside her.
As she smoothed his short hair with her hands, she asked gently, “Why did you get up so early? Why don’t you sleep a little longer?”
Snuggling up to her intimately, Yohan asked, “Mom, you did something important with Dad last night, right?”
Estelle was stunned for a moment and then asked, with a trace of embarrassment on her face, “Who told you that?”
“Mrs. Moorsum!” Yohan answered excitedly. “Mrs. Moorsum said that yesterday, Dad transformed into a superhero and went to save the world with you. Mom, how many bad guys did you defeat? Could you tell me how Dad defeated them?” As he spoke, he looked at Estelle with his sparkling eyes, which were full of admiration for his dad, whom he had never met before.
