Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy chapter 1200
Luna immediately grabbed hold of Neil’s ankle, exposing his injured sole of the feet. There were still a few broken pieces lodged in them.
She sighed and clutched onto his ankle, while gently taking the broken pieces out of his feet with the tweezers.
“How could you be so careless?“
Neil was initially seated, but when Luna tugged at him, he was forced to lie back on the bed. He could not exert his strength. Luna clutched onto his ankle tightly. It was quite painful, so Neil just gave up struggling.
However, even though his body stopped struggling, he was still defiant in his speech. He furrowed his brows and looked at Luna.
“It’s none of your business whether I’m careless or not. I’ve already said to stop being a hypocrite and pretentious with me! I ‘m not Nigel or Nellie. This won’t work on me! “
Luna furrowed her brows. “Even if I’m being a hypocrite, even if I’m being pretentious, I’m helping you to clean your wound. What do you have to lose? Why are you resisting it?“
When she took the final piece of the broken plate out, she took a cotton bud, dipped it in alcohol, and helped Neil disinfect his wound.
“Furthermore, you’re hurt. I’m pretentious just because I care for you? Should I just sit and watch you dress your own wounds badly, wait until it gets infected and you fall sick, and only then I’m not pretentious?
“Do you think you’re not worthy of compassion from others nor worthy of being concerned by others?“
Then, Luna slapped Neil’s butt. “I forbid you to say such nonsense anymore! “
Her slap was not painful, but Neil’s eyes had tears in them. He did not know whether it was because his butt hurt or his foot hurt, or perhaps…what Luna said pierced through him.
She was right.
No one else had cared for him apart from Uncle Theo.
Neil could not remember the past, but his mother told him that it was because he was not obedient and did not listen to her, so the house exploded.
He caused a huge loss for his family and also made his and Uncle Theo’s body to deteriorate badly.
Uncle Theo still had repercussions from his illness.
That was why his mother did not like him. His mother’s bodyguards hated him, too.
Ever since he could recall, whether he got hurt or fell, or even being whipped by his mother…
Only Uncle Theo would care for him.
Neil also slowly got used to such a life. He thought that in this world, other than Uncle Theo, no one else would care for him anymore.
After all, even his mother would scold and beat him. This was why he thought Luna and Joshua were pretentious.
How could a stranger care for him, a child whom his own mother hated, without any reason?
However, at that moment, Luna treated his wound seriously and attentively. She was afraid that it would hurt him, so her actions were extremely gentle.
Neil felt as if his heart had been pierced through. Soft, warm blood started flowing in, seeping through his entire body. That not only made him want to cry, but his body felt hot, too.
After Luna dressed his wounds, she turned around and noticed the tear-stricken Neil.
She smiled and gently patted his head. “That’s more like it. You’re only six years old. Children in pain need to let it out and cry. If you don’t cry now, you won’t be able to cry when you’re grown up.“
Then, Luna pressed Neil down to bed and tucked him in.
“Didn’t you say you want to go get Aura’s DNA tomorrow? Don’t try to touch the ground with this foot tonight, or you won’t be able to head out tomorrow.“
Neil bit his lip and looked at Luna in a daze.
“Y—You… You’re willing to let Nigel and Nellie follow me to get DNA samples from my mother?“
If the DNA test tomorrow proved that Nigel and Nellie were like him, that they belonged to Aura… Luna…would be disappointed, right?
