Chapter 7: You Couldn’t Be Any Older
929 Words
Trenton pieced together the timeline.
His eyes quickly darkened.
Darryl was older than him. Louis was Trenton's father but he had another son, who was four months older than Trenton, and who wasn't Rebecca's son. What did this mean?
"This means that Louis had cheated on Mommy! This means that Louis bullied her!" Trenton thought.
Trenton's almond-shaped eyes were burning with anger. He wished he could set Louis on fire through the screen.
It seemed that the punishment Trenton had given Louis at the airport was too trivial.
Trenton took out the pinhole camera from his pocket and connected it to the computer. He changed the IP address, then he posted the video of him peeing on Louis' face on the Internet.
When everything was done, Trenton laughed.
"Didn't he frame Mommy for having a secret date with her lover? Now we'll see what happens when he sees himself in the headlines!" he thought.
After that, Trenton looked up Darryl's information further and found that he was studying at Eliza's kindergarten.
"Coming back to Mimery for kindergarten didn't seem that bad after all," he thought.
Trenton smiled slyly. After getting rid of all his traces, he turned off the computer and got up to help Rebecca unpack her suitcase.
It was really hard for his tiny frame to hang the clothes in the wardrobe.
Trenton looked at his short legs in annoyance. He swore to himself that he would eat more and grow up as soon as possible in order to protect his mother.
He brought over a stool to the wardrobe. He stepped onto the stool and hung his and Rebecca's clothes in the wardrobe.
The sound of Eliza coming home could be heard from outside.
"Rebecca, you're back? Let me see if you've lost weight in the past five years."
Eliza hugged Rebecca, her eyes slightly red.
"Silly girl, I'm fine. Why are you crying?"
Rebecca also felt very overwhelmed.
"Fine? You call this fine? Well, don't go back this time. I'm here. I'll take care of you."
"Alright, I'll let you take care of me. I won't leave for the time being. There's a collaboration project that needs to be carried out here and it'll take at least half a year. Stop crying and come meet my son."
Rebecca took Eliza's hand and brought Eliza to her room.
"Trenton, greet Aunty Eliza."
When Rebecca opened the door, Trenton was standing on his tiptoes trying to hang her clothes. Upon hearing Rebecca's voice, he turned around in an instant and fell from the stool.
"Be careful!"
Rebecca stepped forward to catch him, but Eliza was even faster. Eliza wrapped her arms around Trenton, but because of inertia, they both fell onto the floor together.
Eliza was a teacher, so she protected Trenton out of instinct. Eliza adored how small and delicate he was. Especially when she saw Trenton's porcelain doll-like face, she couldn't help but scream in elation.
"Oh my god, Rebecca, your son is so handsome!"
Then, she kissed Trenton's face.
Trenton was instantly upset.
"You old woman, how could you take advantage of me? Get up!"
Eliza was hurt by what Trenton called her.
"You little brat, I'm only 28 years old. How is that old?"
"I'm only 4 years old. To me, you couldn't be any older. Old hag! Get up! I'm about to be suffocated!"
Trenton wasn't such a rude person. In fact, usually he couldn't even be bothered to argue with most maniacs, but he had been kissed on the face by Eliza!
This was just unacceptable!
Eliza was irritated and lost her temper.
"Rebecca, are you sure this is your son?"
Rebecca couldn't help but laugh as she looked at the both of them.
"Alright, Eliza, get up. Trenton doesn't like being kissed."
Rebecca was about to pull Eliza up, but Eliza was not going to give in to Trenton's wishes.
"You don't want to be kissed, right? I'm going to do the exact opposite! I'll kiss you however I want!"
Eliza held Trenton's face childishly and kissed his face a few times.
Trenton's expression changed completely. He took something out of Rebecca's suitcase and hurled it towards Eliza.
"Ouch!"
Eliza jumped as she felt an electric shock. Only then did she see that Trenton was holding a taser in his hand.
"You little brat, are you trying to murder me?"
"I gave this to Mommy to protect herself from perverts. I didn't expect to use it on an old female p*****t like you!"
Trenton got up angrily and walked over to the washroom.
He wanted to wash off the old woman's saliva!
It was so disgusting!
Rebecca laughed so hard that she was out of breath, but Eliza wanted to cry.
"How did you raise such a devil? He looks like a porcelain doll on the outside, but why is he so rotten on the inside?"
"Trenton is just a little on edge. Just don't bother him."
Rebecca knew her son well, so she apologized to Eliza immediately.
Eliza's feelings were hurt deeply.
She couldn't believe she was rejected by a 4 year old!
"How am I gonna live with this?" she thought.
"You little brat, I'll get back at you later."
Eliza held her waist that felt slightly numb due to the electric shock and followed Rebecca out of the room.
Rebecca went to the kitchen to turn off the fire on the stove. Eliza picked up her phone and browsed the news out of boredom. Suddenly, a piece of news caught her eye and she burst into laughter.
