Chapter 13
"No!"
"No!"
Two voices suddenly rose.
Maria raised her eyes and saw that Samantha and Migs both refused.
Samantha seemed to feel Maria's strange gaze. Her face was rather ugly, but she immediately explained with a smile, "Maria you’re not married yet. How can you be Ben’s godmother? Let's talk about it. Ben is still young. Don't take it seriously."
"Well, I know.", Maria said and smiled.
But her heart sank suddenly, and it was a little uncomfortable.
It's not because of anything else. It's because she sincerely wants to distance herself from the little boy and she’s afraid it will make her unhappy.
But at this time, she clearly felt Samantha's defensive heart towards her, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, they are good friends, and they should trust each other.
"No, I want it. Humph!"
Ben was very angry, held her arms, pouted angrily at Migs, "Huh, daddy, I don't want you anymore. From now on, you’re not my daddy. I'm going to follow Aunt Maria!"
While talking, he turned and walked towards Maria...
However, before he took a few steps away, Migs grabbed him and sat on his lap, "Come over to me and sit down. If you are not obedient, you..."
His voice suddenly stopped, and he glanced at Maria with displeased eyes, then lowered his head and whispered to Ben’s ear: "If you are not obedient, starting today, I will never let you meet Maria again!"
Earlier in the hospital, if it wasn't for the little guy crying and wanting to see Maria, he would never bring Ben over to the party.
Actually, Ben is a child who doesn't cry a lot or make troubles. How can he be so self-willed like these for the past two days?
As long as he mentions Maria, it will naturally work.
Before letting go, Ben wouldn't be so unreasonable to make trouble.
Migs' cold gaze swept towards Maria and his scrutiny eyes looked at her. When he took a closer look, he realized how similar her eyebrows were to Ben!
Similar?!
Recalling carefully, the girl brought by Uncle Ace seemed to have the surname... Moore?!
So, she might be...
A flash of stars flashed across Migs’ azure blue pupils, and he had a plan in his heart.
Ben immediately did not speak obediently, but his face was a little ugly.
"Let's order food."
Seeing the awkwardness of the atmosphere, John took the initiative to resolve the embarrassment. He looked at Maria and smiled softly, "Maria, what do you want to eat?"
"Whatever, anything will do."
After making a fuss, how can she still eat?
She just wants to leave here quickly.
"Auntie, I like to eat this soup dumplings, as well as sugar cake crisps, um...There are also braised pork ribs which taste really good." Although he can't sit with Maria, Ben still likes to chat with her.
"Do you like these too?"
John frowned slightly and looked at Maria incredulously, "I remember, you used to like these dishes very much."
Yes, I remember that when Maria was still in Bridgetown, she especially liked foods such as soup, sugar cake and crispy ribs.
However, after saying those words, everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere became more and more weird.
"Yeah, really?"
Ben couldn't sit still when he heard John's words, slipped off Migs's lap, and threw directly into Maria's arms, "Really? Auntie, you like it too. Wow, my long-lost mummy?"
His big eyes flashed with dim light, and he looked at Maria full of hope and expectation.
"Ben, don't say that. Maria is not married yet."
Seeing that the faces of the few people present were not so good, John immediately spoke.
After speaking, Ben immediately drooped his cheeks, and his flickering big eyes became dull. His lips were pursed somewhat sadly, "Oh."
For some reason, at that moment, Maria felt a little distressed for the little guy, and his disappointed look burned her heart like a knife cut.
In the dark, she seemed to see the appearance of the little girl at home.
Thinking of this, she was surprised to find that Yassy's facial features were somewhat similar to this child!
No way! Looking at Ben, from his eyebrows, eyes, and the nose, it was simply carved out of a mold.
Suddenly, she stood up.
"Maria, what's the matter with you?", seeing that her expression was a little abnormal, John grabbed her wrist and asked with concern.
Not only John, but even Migs and Samantha noticed Maria's strange color.
"I... I have a sudden stomachache and want to go to the bathroom."
She politely told them, "Order the food first, and I will be back in a bit.”
Leaving the table in a hurry, Maria walked quickly to the sink. In the public area, she unscrewed the faucet and took a hand and patted it on her cheek, trying to make herself sober.
But the more she washed her face, her thoughts became clearer.
Suddenly an idea came into her mind, would Ben be her child?
At the beginning, she gave birth to a boy in Bridgetown. If she calculates the years, her daughter happened to be about the same age as Ben.
Especially the facial features of the little boy are too similar to her daughter Yassy.
When she first met Ben, she felt a bit similar, but she didn't pay much attention to it. Thinking about it now, she felt a little horrified.
"Maria, are you okay?"
Suddenly, a person walked out behind her.
Samantha looked at her and stepped forward and cared, "Are you okay? Migs, he is bit ill-tempered, so don't mind him."
