Warning My Mommy is A Savage

chapter 1564

Chapter 1564

Since she was still conscious, Charmine turned around to take one string for Maurice. "Mo, you tie up my hands, and I'll tie up yours."

This was the only way to prevent anything unsavory from happening.

"Okay."

Maurice took the string from Charmine quickly, trying her wrists together, and Charmine did her best for Maurice, too.

Following that, the two of them sat at two ends of the cave. A short while later, their body temperature rose. Not wanting this to escalate, Charmine piped up, "Mo, why don't we talk to distract ourselves." "Okay." Maurice's voice was gentle as always. "What would you like to talk about? I’m listening."

Charmine fell silent for a while before asking, "Mo, how did you suffer from anorexia?" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Maurice's expression changed. He did not want to talk about this as this reminded him of his hurtful past.

However, this was not a bad time to talk about it.

He took a deep breath and cleared up his mind before saying, "Growing up as a child, my family was poor. My mother thought my father was useless, so she left us behind. Ever since then, my father became addicted to gambling, not caring about my livelihood. Since I was seven or eight, I've learned to take care of myself and did everything on my own. Nobody taught me how to cook, so the meals I cooked were terrible. Eventually, I stopped eating and hated eating. This turned into anorexia.”

His body grew tense as he spoke, memories of his past haunting him again, could not help recalling his past.

About how his parents argued and fought.

None of them cared about him. They often locked him inside a dark room.

He spent his childhood with these traumatic events.

In the end, when Maurice's mother left, even though he cried and begged her not to leave, she heartlessly pushed him away without even turning back...

These memories still made him tremble in fear even after all these years.

Charmine heard him and sympathized with him.

So this was how Maurice grew up...yet he still grew up to be a gentle man.

Despite being neglected at a young age, Maurice managed to move others with his gentleness.

Maurice always had a gentle look in his eyes, but his gaze darkened as he retold his story. "Looking at my parents' relationship that crumbled, I feared marriages and families. This is why I’d never get married in my life.” i

Listening to Maurice's story, Charmine sensed that she must have grazed an old wound of his sad past. She comforted him, "Don't be too sad, Mo. Many people still love you in this world. They're caring about you in places that you can't see. You grew up in a broken place, but it made you who you are today." "Yeah," Maurice agreed, "I know."

Despite that, his eyes glinted with an unnoticeable thirst. Even though he felt hopeless, he still wished that one day, he could feel what it was like to have a family.

Charmine noticed the look in his eyes. She fell silent for a moment before saying, "Actually, I was framed by a douchebag and my sister a few years back. My family sent me away to a foreign country all by myself. I had depression and tried to kill myself in many instances. When I finally picked myself up, I met Anthony. We fell in love, and we've been through a lot. Now

Charmine had a mocking look in her eyes. "I spent so long trying to open myself up for love again, and I ended up getting hurt terribly. He’s just like Julian: someone who's after my assets and my looks. Nobody truly loves me for who I am, who loves my soul."

Maurice gazed at her sympathetically.

He had heard about her past but did not know how true it was. With her saying this herself, it was true after all.

He could not believe how these cruel things could happen to her and how she lived through them.
