Reclaiming the CEO's Heart novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131 Ethan Is Missing

The harsh sea breeze blew as Ethan hid from the wind in her arms, with snowflakes swirling around them.

Avery pointed to the distant sea and said, "My baby disappeared in this area. He was not as fortunate as you. When he was taken out of my belly, he had no breath. He had never seen the sun of this world."

"Little one, do you think it's cold for him alone at the bottom of the sea? Will you accompany him? It might be a bit cold when you first go underwater, and the water will quickly spread to your lungs. You will feel like your lungs are about to explode, experiencing intense pain and discomfort. You will want to call for help, but you won't be able to utter a single word. Slowly, you will lose consciousness and sink into darkness..."

"In the end, you will disappear forever in this world, leaving behind an indelible scar for his entire life. You are his beloved son, and if he loses you, he will surely be heartbroken, won't he?"

Avery pinched his cheek and smiled self-mockingly. "You won't be like my own child. From conception to departure, he was all a tragedy."

She held the child's hand and walked step by step towards the edge of the cruise ship. "Ethan, look, the snow tonight is as heavy as last year. You must be very cold alone in the water, right? Don't be afraid; Mommy has brought you a playmate."

The bottomless sea resembled a monster, roaring viciously with its wide open mouth, wanting to devour everything.

Avery smiled gently at Ethan. "I'm sorry, my dear. I will repay you in the next life."

When Gail took the cake and turned around, there was no trace of the little one by her side.

Since the child learned to walk, he often wandered off. Luckily, with his arms and legs, he couldn't go far.

She chased after him with the cake in hand, calling out, "Mr. Ethan, where did you hide?"

Looking at the empty corridor, Gail felt fear at that moment.

It only took her a few seconds to fetch the cake. How could a child who had just learned to walk disappear from such a long corridor? She looked at the railing; Ethan shouldn't be able to fall off.
