Chapter 1145 At dinner, Elysia noticed that Emmett was unusually downcast.

The little guy barely touched his food, just sipping on schicken soup.

It pained Elysia to see him like this.

Lately, a lot had happened around Emmett. Even though he was young, these events were taking a toll on him.

If it weren't for Cecil cozying up to the press and leaking those stories, even sharing Emmett's photos.

She would have handled it privately, making sure Emmett never found out.

It wasn't something to be proud of. Knowing would only make the child sad.

Elysia frowned internally, cursing Cecil for his actions! He was nowhere near fit to be Emmett's father! After dinner, Elysia found an excuse to take Emmett downstairs alone.

Mother and son sat on a bench in the garden, stargazing.

After a bit of small talk, Elysia asked, "Emmett, you're troubled about something, aren't you?" Emmett turned to look at Elysia, his long eyelashes fluttering.

Elysia smiled tenderly, stroking his hair with immense gentleness, "Emmett, you've said before that mommy can share her worries with you, so if you have any worries, you can share them with mommy too. We're mother and son, but we're also best friends, right?" The little guy nodded, his eyes reddening before he even spoke.

Elysia immediately pulled him into a hug, "Is something making you sad, Emmett?" As soon as his mom mentioned it, Emmett's tears started flowing, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Mommy, it hurts... it really hurts..." Elysia felt a pang of heartache, holding Emmett tightly, offering him the warmest embrace to let out his emotions.

"Mommy knows, mommy understands, I'm here for you." The little guy sobbed, taking a while before he managed to speak, "I don't want to go back to her, but I wish she could be happy." "She gave birth to me, and I'm grateful to her, but now she's gone... I don't want her to be gone..." Emmett was mourning Claire's death.

Elysia felt an immense sorrow for him.

This child was inherently kind-hearted. He didn't have much of a connection with Claire, but in his eyes, since Claire gave birth to him, she was his benefactor.

And now that his benefactor was gone, he was heartbroken.

"Death is a part of life, and no one can stop it. But I know she loved you, Ο. Emmett, and she wouldn't want you to be sad because of her passing. If you're happy, that's what would make her happy."

"How about we organize a beautiful m funeral for her the day after tomorrow? She brought you into this world, and you'll help her move on to the next, as a way to thank her for bringing you into our lives." Emmett nodded vigorously, "Yeah!" "Mommy, will I... will I beca bad person?" "They say... my father killed my mother, they say he was a bad man, and that I'll turn out bad too." Elysia clenched her teeth internally, cursing those who slandered Emmett! May they find their place in hell sooner! They had no idea, or perhaps they didn't care, about the psychological trauma their cruel words could inflict on a child!

"No, sweetheart! Just because your father did bad things doesn't mean you will too. Look at your grandfather; he was a good man, but your father turned out differently." Not all bad traits are inherited, and you, my dear Emmett, are the living proof of that.
