A Husband For Killer Mom Chapter 71

71 Ch. 71 A Warm Hug

Holding back the emotions already at their peak and ready to explode at any mont, Anxia gently massaged her husband’s head again.

Honestly, she couldn’t understand how this man could turn into such a child in one night.

Had received a mild concussion causing one’s deanor to change so drastically?

“So, how did you save her?” Anxia was curious about how Richard would break through the defenses of master Yu’s n and bring Ling ng out safely. “Hey, Richard.”

“...” But it seed that the man had fallen asleep, making her speechless.

“Hey, wake up. You can’t just go to sleep without explaining it to .” Anxia moved aside to pull her husband’s hand to wake him up.

This jerk husband of hers had the heart to stress her out for the past two days because she thought she had lost her friend in this world. It is his duty to explain everything to cover up the stress she is experiencing.

But this guy is actually sleeping? Was this man not afraid that Anxia would try to kill him again?

“Hey, wake up.” Anxia kept pulling on the man’s hand, but she felt like pulling on a chain attached to a solid wall.

.....

Suddenly, it was Richard’s turn to pull Anxia’s hand, and once again, she fell beside him. This ti, Richard didn’t stop moving and hugged Anxia’s body like holding her in his arms, making Anxia even more panicky.

“Bastard. I know you haven’t slept.” Anxia thrashed as she tried to free herself from the man’s grip, but Richard’s strength was greater than hers, and her attempt to free herself failed miserably.

“Sst. I am exhausted.”

“You promised you would answer all my questions!”

“After finishing helping in the process of ntal recovery.” reminded Richard. “Right now, I’m ntally unstable, and I’m not sure if I rember the answers....”

“Okay, okay, I get it. You don’t need to hug like this.” Anxia struggled again to be released, but Richard’s embrace was still firmly in place.

“This is one of them.”

“What?”

“Hugging you helps calm down.”

Anxia gulped nervously as her heartbeat started to pound crazily.

Why did he have to say such a word? Why did he have to say it softly and lovingly, as if Richard loved her?

This man couldn’t possibly have feelings for her, could he?

Anxia glanced at Richard, who still had his eyes closed, and then decided to close her own eyes.

She also felt exhausted and no longer had the strength to argue with puns she could never win.

Plus, this man’s hug felt warm against her cold body. Anxia had never felt the warmth of a hug from soone, and if she ever felt it, she had forgotten it. And her heart said Anxia didn’t want to get out of this warmth.

Extre sleepiness began to flood her brain, and now both eyelids felt heavy to hold on to. During these two days, Anxia had not been able to sleep and was busy doing everything she could to make Richard hate her and return her to the country.

Her mind was overworked, and her heart couldn’t stop worrying about Ling ng’s safety. The inner pressure and stress of not being able to help her friend were enough to drain her energy and ntality.

But just speaking to Richard, the weight and pressure piled on her shoulders were lifted as well. Even though she had not heard whether Ling ng had escaped master Yu’s tornt, she still believed Richard’s words.

Richard had told her that he had saved Ling ng, which ant that Ling ng was alive.

If she had ntioned Ling ng’s condition to Richard, would he have directly told her?

Anxia couldn’t help but rember her conversation with Lori a while ago.

‘Why don’t you ask daddy for help?’

‘He won’t be able to help .’

‘How are you sure, mommy? Didn’t you know how great and cool it was when dad realized you made a secret code with ? He also looks handso when he finds two black thingy in his boat! If you haven’t talked to him, how can you know he can’t help you?’

‘Okay. Let’s just say he can help , but that doesn’t an he wants to help .’

‘Why?’ Lori tilted her head while putting on an adorable confused expression.

‘To be honest, your father doesn’t really like . He won’t want to help .’

‘That is not true. Dad will do anything to make you smile. If you don’t believe , try talking to him.’

‘How can you be sure that your father wants to make smile? He even hates .’

‘Aiya, mommy. I know you are not an expert on this, but how co you don’t know the basic knowledge about a man’s impulses?’

Anxia gasped in surprise at her daughter’s last word. Isn’t Lori still three years old? How could this child understand a man’s impulse?

‘If daddy hates you, he won’t kiss or hug you. Even a kid like knows that he loves you very much. How co you don’t realize that?’

At first, Anxia didn’t take her daughter’s words seriously and believed that the praise from Lori’s mouth was too biased. She knew Lori adored Richard and was proud to have a father like Richard.

How could she not? Richard always treated Lori with great warmth and generous tenderness as a father.

Lori had always wanted a father figure since she understood the aning of wholeness in having two parents, so it’s no wonder, in her daughter’s eyes, Richard was the perfect father for her.

‘I’d like you to rely on ,’

Anxia rembered why Richard didn’t imdiately tell her about the threatening ssage from master Yu. He wanted her to bring up Ling ng’s situation and indirectly made her want to ask for help from that man.

Would the result have been any different if Anxia had tried it if she had talked with Richard about Ling ng?

Anxia raised her head to look at the handso face of the man who seed to have fallen asleep.

The man looked like a child when he slept. Anxia didn’t need to feel alert or anticipate this man’s cunning plans while Richard was asleep.

Anxia yawned widely because she couldn’t stand the drowsiness that attacked her anymore. Then she snuggled deeper to find a comfortable position while pressing her cheek against the man’s broad chest. She sighed contentedly as she felt warmth radiate to her cheeks and fell asleep.

Anxia was utterly oblivious to the faint smile that had appeared on Richard’s face.
