Chapter 42: Cruel Smile

Translator: Mia

“Lali drinks milk first and daddy will then take you out to eat. All right?”

Lalice was still sobbing. She hugged the bottle and put the nipple into her mouth. Sucking for several times, she pulled the nipple out with stains around the corner of her mouth. She looked still into Jeon Jungkook’s eyes and spoke to him with her still shivering shoulders, “Da...ddy, Lalice was gra..bbed by the mon...ster. I mi...ss daddy a...lot. I wan..t daddy tur...ns into super...man and save La...lice.”

Jeon Jungkook’s already red eyes got sore on hearing this, “Lali, daddy promises to protect you from anyone’s harm from now on. Now mater how powerful a monster may be, daddy will beat them to ashes.”

When the doctor came, he also couldn’t help crying seeing the bruises all round Lalice’s body, “God-damn criminal! How could she bear to beat a kid so hard!”

Gnashed his teeth, Jeon Jungkook hated Yu Jieun hard in his heart for what she had done. His eyes were watered. He didn’t want to talk. He feared that his trembled voice could be told when he spoke.

Lakuce lifted another arm didn’t hurt by the blade and touched Jeon Jungkook’s face softly. She said in a childish voice, “Daddy, Lalice doesn’t hurt. Don’t cry for Lalice, daddy. Lalice doesn’t hurt at all now. Don’t cry, daddy. Don’t cry. Lalice’s heart would break if daddy cried...”

Jeon Jungkook had been depressing his emotions. He hugged Lalice more tightly on hearing her words. Though she wasn’t his kid, he did feel they were linked by the blood when the kid cared for him and won’t want him to cry. His voice was horse and trembled, “Daddy cried for daddy was happy to eventually find Lali. Daddy didn’t cry because of sadness. Instead daddy is very happy, Lali.”

Lalice felt asleep in Jeon Jungkook’s arms with her little hands gripping his shirt tightly. She was even not willing to ease her hands when they got off the car and went back home. Any slight move would awake her like a nightmare. At this time, Jeon Jungkook needed to comfort her by clapping her back until she gradually calmed down.

Though Jeon Jungkook wanted to clean Lalice for she got dirty after the incident, he dared not to move. Lalice would shiver and his heart would ache for it.

Lalice slept through to twelve o’clock at noon the next day and Jeon Jungkook kept the same pose even though he woke up later. Seeing Lalice opened her eyes, he smiled to her, “Lali, daddy takes you to take a shower. We’d better find mommy later for mommy got sick and she would feel sad if she saw Lali was hurt by a monster. So how about finding mommy later when we get better?”

Jeon Jungkook dared not to let Yu Lisa see Lalice now. He also didn’t want Lalice to bear this.

However, he had no other alternative. If Lalice now was seen by Yu Lisa, she would probably got ill again. It was highly probably for Lalice was hurt so hard.

Lalice nodded her head and Jeon Jungkook took her to the bathroom. He put her down in the bathtub and gently washed her body by avoiding the bruise part。 The water gradually got dark. After all dirt was washed off, the bruises all over Lalice's body became evident. Some even got swollen. Her once chubby face was now multiple times bigger because of the pinch. Jeon Jungkook was astonished to see the Lalice before him even though he may have in mind about what Lalice might be treated!

How could Yu Jieun bear to treat a little kid like this!

Jeon Jungkook felt sorry and closed his eyes. He turned around and clenched his fists. He took deep breathes and tried hard not to lose his temper and smash everything in the house in front of Lalice!

Law?

How serious the crime might be for just a kid abuse?

Abuse?

To what level?

Jeon Jungkook managed a cruel smile. How could he easily let Yu Jieun go?
