Chapter 817
Even in her dreams, she wished to know of how her son was doing. Had he grown taller? Did he have enough to eat? Was he being bullied?
But now that he had really appeared, she didn’t have the courage to even glance at him.
How could she tell him that everything he had suffered originated from her…
Gu Mengmeng turned around. She gently tugged Elvis’ hand and placed it on Natalie’s own.
Elvis was very resistant. It was not that he was unable to forgive Natalie, but that he didn’t like the touch of any female other than Gu Mengmeng.
Especially when it was Gu Mengmeng herself who had placed his own hand on that female. This made Elvis feel exceptionally displeased.
Frowning tightly, sparks were nearly shooting out of his pupils.
When Lea was embraced by Nina, Gu Mengmeng was so mad that she wanted to chop people up.
But Elvis’ hand… could be touched by just anyone?
Lea’s constant “Mengmeng doesn’t like anyone else to touch me” attitude now caused a piercing pain to Elvis’ heart.
He thought she was exceptionally obsessive compulsive over her own males, so he and Lea held the same stringent standards for themselves. Apart from battles, he did not allow anyone else to touch him.
It appeared that he was thinking too much…
Xiao Meng was only concerned about Lea.
Elvis’ heart was a sea of jealousy. But Gu Mengmeng remained ignorant.
But we really couldn’t blame her. That female lying there was Elvis’ own mother!
“Natalie, actually… I have a favor to ask of you.” Gu Mengmeng’s tone was soft. She sounded rather embarrassed and reluctant. To hear the word “please” from the great Messenger of the Beast Deity was no small matter. That was why Natalie’s heart gave a violent jump at Gu Mengmeng’s words. Although she didn’t open her eyes, her brows knitted tightly together, indicating that she was listening very seriously.
“Actually, we came this time to seek Peter.” Gu Mengmeng could feel that Natalie’s hand instantly turned cool and trembled at the mention of that name.
Although Gu Mengmeng felt quite guilty at that, what else could she do?
“Chixuan… he is one of our children, was poisoned by a stray beast, and is now being taken hostage. We don’t know where he is and whether he is still alive.”
Gu Mengmeng hadn’t even finished explaining when Natalie slowly opened her eyes. The moment the eyelids parted, tears trickled down her face. When that gaze landed on Elvis’ face, it was full of guilt and despair.
In a hoarse, nasal voice, as weak as gossamer, she said, ” Get Peter here. I want to see him.”
Gu Mengmeng knew that she didn’t have to say anything else.
Natalie had already conjured up a scenario of grandfather kidnapping his grandson and subjecting him to endless torture. There was no way Gu Mengmeng would be able to think up of a scenario even worse than what Natalie was imagining now.
Nodding, Gu Mengmeng led Elvis out of Natalie’s cave.
Meanwhile, Elvis instantly strolled off the moment he extricated his hand.
This was the first time in history that he had left Gu Mengmeng behind him and departed without even turning his head.
Gu Mengmeng thought it was because Elvis was unable to forgive Natalie, and so felt very uncomfortable at being forced to come… she had no idea that he was actually stewing in jealousy.
Peter was waiting right at the entrance of the cave as Gu Mengmeng approached. His face was laced with panic, at complete odds with his usual demeanor.
