100 Days to Seduce the Devil

Chapter 773  Spending Time with her Loved Ones

Nathan\'s heart aches at the sight of his son in distress. He pulled him into a warm hug, placing a comforting hand on Ethan\'s trembling shoulder. "Don\'t be sad, Ethan. You will not make her suffer. Your mother\'s crime has nothing to do with you. Jane will never hate you. You are not to blame," Nathan softly said, comforting Ethan.

Ethan sniffled and looked up at his father, his eyes red and swollen. Nathan stroked his hair. "Can\'t you feel it? No matter what Monica did to Jane, she will never blame you, Ethan. Blood-related or not, Jane cares so much about you."

"Don\'t feel jealous of Mia. Jane loves you as much as she loves her."

Ethan nodded, wiping his tears away. " I understand, Dad. I shouldn\'t be thinking like this. I just can\'t help it. I feel sorry for Mommy Jane. She suffered a lot because of my biological mother."

"Ethan, don\'t worry. I will get to the bottom of this. Besides, there is still a chance that Monica is not your biological mother." Nathan wanted to cheer him up.

They were still talking when Jane approached them. She was surprised to see Ethan\'s swollen eyes.

"Baby? What\'s wrong? Did your Dad scold you and make you cry?" Jane asked Ethan worriedly as she stared at Nathan suspiciously.

Nathan waved his hands to say he was innocent.

"Mommy!" Ethan jumped off his seat and hugged Jane\'s waist.

"Why did you cry, baby? Tell me," Jane softly said, crouching down to meet Ethan\'s eye level.

Ethan shook his head. "It\'s nothing, Mommy."

He didn\'t want her to know that he was jealous of Mia. But Nathan spoke up on Ethan\'s behalf since he knew that Jane was the only person who could reassure Ethan and remove his insecurity.

"Ethan is sad… thinking you won\'t love him anymore because you finally found your daughter. He is also feeling guilty for the wrongdoings of Monica."

Ethan pouted his lips and glared at his father, for revealing those things. Then he looked down, feeling embarrassed. He couldn\'t meet Jane\'s gaze.

Meanwhile, Jane blinked in amusement, watching Ethan in disbelief. \'So Ethan is troubled by this.\'

Jane sighed helplessly before she sat down in front of Ethan, holding his shoulders.

"Ethan, my love for you will never change even if I found my daughter. If you will allow me… please let me treat you as my own son." Jane cupped Ethan\'s face. "I will take care of you and Mia. And I will be your Mom."

Ethan\'s eyes sparkled with delight when he heard that. He felt grateful to Jane.

"Don\'t you really mind it even if I\'m not related to you by blood?" Ethan asked her again, his eyes seeking affirmation.

"Of course! You are the cutest and most charming boy I\'ve ever known in my whole life, Ethan. I want to be your mother… even if we are not blood-related. It doesn\'t matter at all. Don\'t you feel our connection?" Jane placed her hand on his chest while her other hand rested on her own chest.

Ethan bobbed his head frantically and said, "Yes. I can feel it, Mommy! In my heart."

Jane\'s lips curled up into a satisfied smile. She opened her arms to embrace Ethan once more, letting him feel how much she cared for him.

"Can I join you? I want a hug too." Nathan butted in, putting on a puppy-eyed look.

Jane and Ethan erupted into a peal of laughter as they glanced at Nathan. Finally, Ethan laughed and he was back to his usual self. Nathan was right! Jane was the only one who could lift Ethan\'s mood.

"By the way, do you have any update about your father\'s whereabouts? Have you found him?" Jane asked Nathan, remembering the kidnapping incident of Old Man Xu. She thought Old Man Xu was still missing.

"Mommy! We\'ve finally found Grandpa!" Ethan shared the good news with her.

Jane felt relieved to hear that. "How did you find him? Who is the culprit?"

Nathan hesitated for a moment, glancing at Ethan worriedly. The young boy wasn\'t aware that the mastermind for Old Man Xu\'s abduction was none other than Monica. He was worried that Ethan might feel disheartened once again if he learned the truth.

"Mommy, it was Uncle Vincent who found my Grandpa. He told my Dad about his whereabouts. Uncle Vincent saved my grandpa."

Jane was taken aback by that revelation. It only meant that Vincent fulfilled his promise to her.

"Is it true?" Jane gave Nathan a questioning look.

"Yes. It\'s true. Vincent was the one who helped us in saving my father."

Jane fell silent for a moment, having conflicting thoughts. It looked like Vincent was doing his best to show his sincerity towards her.

"I\'m glad your father is safe now. How is he?" Nathan and Ethan exchanged glances with one another, their expressions became sullen as they remembered Old Man Xu\'s state. He was beaten up so badly.

"He needed to be hospitalized. His body suffered from beatings. I let Butler Li watch over him for now. We also transferred him to our medical facility." Nathan informed her.

Jane was still curious about who the mastermind was. But when she looked at Nathan, she understood that he was keeping things from Ethan. She decided to ask him once they were alone.

"Are you going back to Country M today? I heard you used your private plane to fly here today." Jane looked like she didn\'t want to get separated from Nathan just yet. "Can you extend your stay here even for one day?" She missed him a lot. She had to admit that Nathan\'s presence comforted her a lot. She wanted to be with him as he and Ethan became the source of her strength.

Meanwhile, Nathan smiled at her as he nodded in response. "Yes. I will stay by your side since you need me. I won\'t leave you." He reassured her. He couldn\'t bear to leave her especially now that she expressed her desire to be with him.

"Thanks, Nate!" Jane pounced on him, hugging Nathan. All her troubles suddenly disappeared. Nathan and Ethan were both there for her. And now, Mia\'s condition improved. She couldn\'t ask for more. She just wanted to spend more time with her loved ones– Nathan, Ethan, Mia, and her father.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
