My Precious Family 2 [Jenlisa]

Chapter 252: someone she can never unlove

"I'm... sorry."    

Jevin hung his head low, standing in front of his mother and father. After bathing, Dara encouraged him to tell what happened to Jennie. Since Jennie and Lisa were still in the living area, Jevin came straight to them with Dara's help.    

"Jevy..." Jennie sighed, casting Lisa a look.     

"I'll take a bath first." Lisa flashed her a subtle smile, nodding at her. "Or do you need my help here?"    

"It's okay." Jennie smiled back. "I can manage."    

"Alright." Lisa didn't idle, casting Dara a look.     

"Yes. I'll help the chef and prepare dinner." Dara bowed, leaving right after Lisa.    

Jennie glanced over her shoulder as her husband left. She then slowly set her eyes ahead, sighing as soon as her eyes fell on her son.     

"Jevy," she called with a gentle voice, watching him peek at him. "Come here, Jevy."    

Jennie tapped the space beside her. Jevin pursed his lip into a thin line, reluctantly dragging his feet to her side.     

"I'm sorry," Jevin expressed in a tiny voice, fidgeting with his fingers while keeping his head down. "I didn't mean for that to happen."    

"Jevy, can you please look at Mommy?" Jennie sighed helplessly, waiting for him to look back at her.     

The moment their eyes met, Jennie cupped his face. Another helpless sigh escaped her closed lips. How could she get angry at him? There was nothing Jevin could do that would anger her.     

"Mommy is not angry, okay?" she started with a soft voice. The phone was just a phone, but your courage and admitting to your mistake were far more valuable."    

Her eyes softened, brushing his cheek with her thumb. "You... made Mommy very proud, Jevy."    

"You're... not angry?" his brows rose ever so slowly, watching her shake her head. "You will not hate me again?"    

"Huh?" Deep lines appeared between her brows, only to realize what he meant. For some reason, that question was akin to a knife cutting through her heart. "No, Jevy. I will not hate you."    

Jevin's big eyes shone while assessing her face. When he heaved a sigh of relief, Jennie felt like something got stuck in her throat.     

"Jevy, look at Mommy." She held his face, searching for his eyes. "I... will never hate you. Even if you cry, feel sad, or get angry, Mommy will always love you. I can never unlove you — ever."    

If Jennie could say more to justify how much she loves this child, she would. However, an entire night was not enough to describe her heart. Even she couldn't find the right words to describe this love, after all. All she knew was that she would give everything to him and wish him nothing but the best.     

"Do you understand?" she continued.     

"Even when you're far away?"    

"What?"    

"When you're at work." Jevin blinked, letting his innocence take over. Something he was always curious about.    

"Of course," she breathed out, a bit confused at his question.    

"Even when Uncle is always with you?" he asked once again, making her cold, rotten heart turn as soft as tofu. "Do you still love me, even if I'm not smart anymore?"    

"Yes."    

"What if once I grow up and I look like Daddy? Will you still like me?"    

Jennie bit her inner bottom lip, finally getting a grasp of his fear. Even though Jevin believed her excuse for why she had treated him coldly in the past, there was still lingering fear in his heart, which he never spoke about. After all, the original Jennie couldn't look at him for the reason Jevin looked like Lisa.     

"I love you more than anything in the world." Jennie forced a smile, fighting the tears that were forming in the corner of her eyes. "Even if you make hundreds or million mistakes and even if you're not perfect, Mommy's heart will never change. I will always love you so so so much, and I'm fortunate to have the opportunity to do so."    

Jennie lowered her head, moving her face until her forehead was resting against his. Her hands were still cupping his face, exhaling through her lips as her heart felt so heavy.     

'Jennie Kim...' Jennie closed her eyes, enduring the heaviness in her heart. '... I hate you but... I will always be grateful for bringing this child into this world.'    

Jevin smiled at his mother's comforting words, holding one of her hands that was on his cheek. Her hands were trembling, but he didn't point it out. When he opened his eyes, his mother already drew her head back.     

Her smile was small, but her face was beautiful, and her eyes were gentle. Being in this position, he could feel the sincerity in her gaze.     

It felt reassuring — more than ever.     

"Mommy." Jevin suddenly hugged her tightly, making her raise her arms so he could hold her. "I love Mommy too! So much — infinite times!"     

Her eyes softened even more, stroking his head. "So Jevy, don't be scared if you make a mistake next time, okay? Making mistakes is okay. Just tell Mommy the truth." Her lips stretched as he gazed up at her.     

"Mommy only wants Jevy to be a good person, just like Dad," she added, keeping her hand on top of his head. "So, don't worry too much anymore, alright?"    

"Mhm!" Jevin grinned, only for it to fade as a sudden thought crossed his mind.     

"Hmm?" Jennie furrowed her brows, watching his expression quickly change. "What's wrong, Jevy?"    

Jevin slowly released his mother, sitting upright. "Mommy, there's something I didn't tell you."    

"Hmm? What is it?" Jennie cocked her head to the side, waiting for his confession. However, what her son was about to say was something that never crossed her.     

"The glitch happened when someone asked me who I was." Her brows furrowed even more at his confession, and then her pupils dilated at his next remarks. "Mommy, I found out your secret. I knew that you were a spy. When I saw the same logo from your computer on your phone, I went to check the mobile version. But then, someone messaged me and told me there was only one person who can access the system. The phone glitched right after that and then it got reset."    

Jennie's lips fell, wide-eyed.     

'Fvck.'
