Chapter 9

Nancy "Come in." Freya came. "Hey, I got these for you. But I don't know they fit you well. There are also some cosmetics, I guess you will get them." I took the bag from her. She, like Keith, had blue eyes that would sink people. "Thank you very much. Freya." "You're welcome." She gave me a big hug. "Welcome to our family. See you later. Nancy." Her smile was pure and clear, and she seemed to have the power to melt the ice. I feel very warm. Then she smiled back. When I changed clothes and went to the restaurant downstairs, I found Leo sitting on a woman's lap drinking juice. A woman about forty years old. It can be seen that he is very happy. When he saw me coming, he immediately jumped off the woman's leg, ran over, and hugged my leg with two little hands. "Mom, mom, you are awake." I took him in my arms and squeezed his small face with my hands. "Yes. Are you full?" He nodded. I found the woman next to me was looking at me and smiling. She stood up and walked towards me. This is the first time I know Isabella. Isabella was the mother of Keith and Freya. She was a very kind woman in her early forties, and we became very close later. She had been teaching me new things in the kitchen, and when Leo'destroy' me, she was always more willing to watch him for a while. I am very happy that I can meet such a gentlewoman in my life. She brought me a brunch and insisted on taking care of Leo while I was eating. Leo was attracted by the snow outside the window, she took Leo out to play in the snow. Then Keith walked in. I still dare not look into his eyes for the "staircase incident" just now, but what makes me worry about the intimate photos of him and that girl. I have had a failed relationship experience with Reyes, and I don't want to be involved in other troubles. So, I must clarify this matter. "I must know something about her." He froze for a moment, and then returned to normal. He stood by the window with his hands in his trouser pockets and looked out the window. Leo's cheers in the snow and Isabella's laughter came. The campfire in the kitchen is still burning. I feel warm all over and my cheeks are red. But his words made me feel that I was almost out of breath under the hot air. "She is my mate." He said in an unusually calm tone. He turned around, looked at me, frowning. Well, he and I have other partners, which is also fair. "But, you are also my true mate. She is the daughter of a friend of my dead father. She has bone cancer, and she said she loves me very much. You know this is her last wish in life, that is to be my mate. .so……" His tone was sincere. I don't know why I believe what he said. I was not surprised, so I nodded. "Where is she now?" "In the hospital. It's late and she is in a coma." There was some sadness in his eyes. "I don't love her. We are just friends. Both my mother and sister know." He sat down and put his hands on the table. I reached out and touched his hand. "Sorry." "No, it has nothing to do with you." "I also have an ex-boyfriend. Leo is me and his child..." Before I could finish, he interrupted me. "I know. It's okay. I know he treats you badly. I will protect you and Leo." He gave me a firm smile. "Thank you." But I think these are too early. I don't know, I don't want to start too fast. Although his face and figure attracted me deeply. "By the way, I found your SUV and your suitcase. I have someone put the suitcase on the second floor." I nodded. "I want to go to school." Because of Reyes, I gave up my studies. I know that I can't find a good job now, so I plan to go to school first. "Okay, I will arrange it." He walked up to me, stretched out a hand, and wrapped my waist.
