Chapter 307
“Aaron!” No one answered Willow. Her face turned pale as she frantically searched the children’s clothing store. However, she still couldn’t find Aaron anywhere.
Aaron had always been a sensible child. Whenever she took him out shopping, he would always obediently follow her and stay close while she picked out items.
She never expected that this time, just a few seconds of releasing his hand while reaching for clothes would lead to him suddenly disappearing.
Aaron had a phone with him. After a brief panic, Willow quickly dialed Aaron’s number. Luckily, Aaron answered the phone quickly.
“Aaron, where are you?”
“Mom, I’m at…” Aaron glanced around before continuing softly, “I think it’s the underground parking lot.”
“Stay there and wait for me. Don’t run around. I’ll be right there.”
Willow didn’t have time to ask him why he had run off to the underground parking lot alone. She just wanted to see him as soon as possible.
In fact, Aaron didn’t run away on purpose. He left the store quietly because he saw Matthew.
Aaron had lived with Matthew since he was born. In his heart, Matthew was as important as Willow, even more important than his biological father.
After escaping from the dungeon, he had been waiting for news about Matthew every day. But even after so long, the man who had raised him didn’t appear in front of him nor give him a warm hug again.
Now, when he finally saw Matthew, Aaron didn’t want to let him disappear from his sight like this. Even with his limp, he tried his best to move forward, but he still remained a considerable distance behind Matthew.
It wasn’t until they reached the underground parking lot that the distance between them shortened a little.
“Uncle Matthew!” The underground parking lot was relatively quiet. When Aaron shouted, Matthew finally heard his voice.
Standing beside Matthew, Wilhelmina gently pushed him. “Matt, that child seems to be calling you. Do you know him?”
When Matthew turned around and looked at Aaron, his face showed obvious impatience. “No.”
After saying that, Matthew opened the car door and was about to get in.
“Uncle Matthew!” Afraid that Matthew would drive away, Aaron quickly ran forward, but his limp was too
severe. As he tried to run, he ended up falling awkwardly to the ground.
“Uncle Matthew!” Aaron shouted. He couldn’t understand why his beloved Uncle Matthew, who was so kind to him, would say he didn’t know him and look at him with such cold eyes.
