Chapter 219 Egg Fried Rice Part 1 He walked over to lift up South’s shirt to have a look. Although he was already mentally prepared, his breathing caught in his throat when he saw the actual injury. The sharp pain he had in his chest radiated all over his body and limbs! The injuries weren’t something he could have imagined if he hadn’t witnessed it in person. South’s body was covered with bruised spots, which were most probably left by pinches. There were some major and minor abrasion wounds as well. Upon looking at these injuries, Silas could immediately imagine the intensity of the mad woman when she vented her frustrations on South. I can barely stomach looking at his injuries, not to mention Camila, if she sees it later. She might just die of heartache. Silas bent down to whisper at South’s ear. South nodded in response. On the other hand, Camila came out with the medical kit, but South suggested, “Mommy, let Uncle Silas help me with my treatment.” Camila retorted, “Your Uncle Silas doesn’t know his way around medicine as I do. It’s best that I help you.” “You are a girl, and I am a boy,” remarked South firmly. Silas took the medical kit from her. “I’ll do it. I’m not as stupid as you might think. I am able to treat simple wounds after all.” Camila stood rooted to the spot while holding onto the medical kit. Tears started brimming in her eyes. I know that the little fellow doesn’t want me to see his injuries because he’s worried that I might be sad. Silas sighed helplessly. “South hasn’t had anything to eat. You should prepare a meal for him.” South nodded. “Mommy, I want some egg fried rice!” Camila replied in an almost inaudible voice, “Sure.” After that, she handed the medical kit to Silas and went into the kitchen. She held onto the counter top while her tears came rolling down continuously. He is so mature that it breaks my heart. Silas did not dare stay in the living room, and so he brought South directly back into his room. He had a heavy heart, and he was lost in his thoughts while applying medication for
South. How should I teach them a lesson? “I’ll accompany you to sleep tonight.” South rejected him straight away. “I’m fine alone.” Silas glanced at him, and he used a different method. “Just treat it like you’re taking me in. Otherwise, your mommy will ask me to go home!” South pouted. “You are really useless. Why haven’t you succeeded in pursuing mommy after such a long time?!” Silas glared at him. “Didn’t you say that it’s difficult to pursue your mommy? You told me that I shouldn’t
be anxious for instant success, and you wouldn’t let me be honest. Hence, I have no choice but to follow your mommy’s pace.” South looked worried. “Sigh, when would you succeed in pursuing my mommy if I weren’t around? I might even have a girlfriend then, and you wouldn’t even catch up to me.” Silas retorted, “I have you on my side, but I still haven’t succeeded in pursuing her, have I?” South answered wisely, “It’ll be soon. Otherwise, why would my mommy come looking for you when I went missing?” Silas sighed helplessly. “Your mommy rejected me so many times that I have no confidence left. I’m always wondering every day if I’m not good enough.” South snorted in disdain. “You must not be good enough if my mommy hasn’t agreed to be with you. My mommy is great, and so men who pursue my mommy have to be awesome too!” Silas chuckled. “Mm- hmm, not only do I have to work hard for your wonderful mommy, I have to do that for my awesome son as well.” South didn’t speak, but he broke into a bright grin when he heard that. The two of them walked out of the room after applying medication. Camila was done cooking, but there was only egg fried rice served on the table. She explained while sounding slightly exhausted, “I’ve only made some egg fried rice, and I’m not going to attempt anything else to avoid embarrassing myself. If you don’t mind, feel free to have some!” Silas did not comment further; instead, he walked straight into the dining area. He uses his actions to prove to her that he had no complaints. In all honesty, it was already past 2.00AM, and they were all famished. There were three bowls of egg fried rice, and they each had one. Silas wasn’t sure if he was too hungry, but he found the egg fried rice rather delicious. The rice was fluffy, and the grains held their shape. Each grain was covered with egg; besides, she had added some chopped green onions, carrots, ham, and green peas as ingredients. The colors were vibrant, and the dish was tasty too.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
