My Mommy’s Brave Heart

Chapter 1152

Chapter 1152 She was still very young in the photo.

She was wearing a blue and white school uniform. She had an energetic smile as she looked forward with her head tilted. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

It was not a photo of her from three years ago. Ninian could barely remember how old she was at that time. But she knew that she had no idea of Everett yet.

Why would Everett have an old photo of her?

Ninian held the photo while she got lost in her thoughts. Then, she heard someone knocking on the door behind her.

She turned back to see Everett push the door open and walk inside.

He was still dressed in a school uniform from the war era. His makeup had yet to be removed , and his expression was indifferent. He looked like a character who had just stepped out of the drama.

“What a young, energetic, talented, and passionate student,” Ninian could not help but say.

.

She tilted her head with a smile and complimented him.“ How handsome! My boyfriend is really handsome!”

Everett‘s eyes were also filled with faint joy as he walked toward Ninian. However, the moment he saw the photo in her hand, he became absent–minded for an instant before nervousness crossed his eyes.

“You…”

“Do you want to ask me why I‘m holding this photo ?” Ninian shook her hand. Narrowing her eyes slightly, she said, “Tell me honestly. Where did you get this photo ?”

Everett did not respond. He just pursed his lips and gulped.

He did not move forward anymore either. He stood still while he gently clenched his fists.

“What‘s wrong? Why are you so nervous?” Ninian asked in surprise. “Have you been watching me for many years?”

When Everett heard that, his face turned slightly pale.

“No way. That can‘t be, right?” Ninian held the photo and slapped it on her hand before she walked around Everett and observed him. “Mr. Craig, when did you cast your sights on me? You‘re very…”

She paused for a while as if she could not find a term to describe him.

Everett clenched his fists tightly. He lowered his eyes and dared not look at her as his heart bled.

What was she going to say?

How was he?

Very scary?

Very perverted?

Or very disgusting? Everett just felt pain in his heart, and the beast suppressed within was apparently becoming restless. He could not imagine what he would hear from her, and he dared not imagine the response he would give. As Everett‘s negative thoughts almost flooded his mind, he finally heard her voice.

“You‘re very...

“Persistent!”

Ninian seemed to be in disbelief, but her clear eyes were obviously filled with gentleness and acceptance.

Everett was stunned. He stared into her eyes absentmindedly and could barely register what was going on.

Did she just say… persistent? After she guessed that he might have been watching her for many years, she did not find him scary or perverted. Instead, she just thought that he was very persistent?

“You…”

Everett nearly thought that he was hallucinating and hearing her wrongly. However, Ninian looked at him with surprise and asked, “ So, have you been secretly protecting me for many years?”

Protect…

What a beautiful term. It made him feel better about his filthiness and shame.

It turned out that someone in this world would actually use such a beautiful word to describe him, and the person was even the one whom he cared about.
