Chapter 509 - The Good Kid

J almost forgot about Timothy. Although he has his nanny with him. she can't be at ease. So she asked Jacob that they should pick up Timothy and let him stay at the villa for the meantime.

"Miss, do you want us to pick him up instead," Arthur asked J. He wasn't sure about letting her go out at this hour. Especially in this situation. And Jacob agreed with him.

"No." J stubbornly shook her head. "I want to be there to pick him up."

After 1 hour, two cars arrived at Diana's apartment which is just a block away from CLP Hospital. On the black bulletproofed SUV is Jacob and J on the backseat, Arthur is driving. On the black bulletproofed sedan are Daniel and Stefan. They were the first one to alight the car to check out the safety of the surroundings. When they came near the SUV, Arthur is already out opening the door for J.

"Miss J..." Timothy's nanny opened the door and she was obviously feeling emotional when she saw that it was J. She looked at the men behind her then she looked at her. J has no time to explain.

"Where is Timothy?" She asked as the nanny widened the door to let them in.

"He is already asleep." It was already past eleven so J was not surprised.

"I'll be taking him with me. And you are coming with us. You'll be staying at my house in the meantime." J said her face is void with emotion.

The nanny didn't ask further and nodded her head.

They were on their way back to Evergreen Villa when Timothy was awakened in J's arms. He was seated on her lap while J was cuddling him. His eyes were half-open while looking at J's face.

"Mommy..." a little voice was heard inside that silent SUV.

Jacob looked at J. Arthur glanced at the rearview mirror to look at J. While the nanny who was sitting on in front check out on Timothy.

J's heart tightened. Oh God... how is she going to tell him. He wouldn't understand. She thought. She closed her eyes and takes a deep breath to calm her shivering heart.

"Hey, little buddy... it's Auntie J. I'll be taking care of you for the meantime while your Mommy and Daddy are away, okay?" J said in a gentle voice which J thought was not enough to convince Timothy. She knows that Timothy is a smart kid. He knows when something is wrong but sometimes he just chose not to ask questions. He has never been a burden to Diana.

She felt Jacob squeezed her shoulder. She looked at him feeling defeated. When she looked back at Timothy, he has fallen back to sleep.

The next day, J didn't go back to work. She has been waiting for Felix's report but until that morning, he hasn't called her. Although his communication with Arthur has remained open. It just seems like there is nothing important to report yet. It's either there is no progress or Leo is keeping himself from Felix.

J watched as Timothy plays with Beauty and Beast along with Stefan. The little boy doesn't seem to mind that he is in a different environment and that his mommy is away from him. But J knows that he has been wondering. Just this morning, when Timothy wokes up, he rushed to the kitchen and as soon as he saw J, he asked, "Is she coming home yet?"

J was frozen in place when she heard him. She just cannot find words to say. Seeing her speechless, Timothy just shrugged his shoulders and didn't wait for an answer. He seemed to already know the answer.

"He is such a good kid." J mumbles to herself. But Arthur who was standing beside her heard her.

"She'll be fine." Arthur tried to come up with consoling words. "They'll be fine." Yet he is still struggling.
