Chapter 813:

“What’s all this noise?”

“I want my mom! Please, I want my mom!” Hector rushed toward her.

The woman slapped him hard, knocking him back.

“Stay here and wait!” she snapped.

“I want her now!” Hector shouted.

He lunged at her again in desperation.

The woman’s patience snapped.

With a sharp kick, she sent him tumbling backward.

“I said wait, so wait!”noveldrama

“I want my mom!” Hector cried.

Blood dribbled from his mouth, but his anger and fear pushed him onward.

He dragged himself to his feet and clutched at her leg, refusing to let go.

That was enough to drive her to the brink.

Grabbing a stick, she swung it at him.

“I told you to wait! You little brat!” she screamed.

She didn’t stop, hitting him again and again until he collapsed.

Only then did she step away, the door slamming shut behind her, leaving him alone in the silence.

Hector lay there, shivering, his senses fading as the cold crept in.

But through the darkness, he could hear voices outside the door, distant and muffled.

At that time, he couldn’t make out what they were saying.

The door opened once more, and the woman walked back in.

This time, her expression was different—less angry.

She knelt down, gently wrapping his wounds in bandages.

“Your mom asked me to teach you a lesson,” she said, her tone flat.

“You need to listen to her from now on. Clear?”

Hector didn’t respond.

His mind was too numb to form thoughts.

When he was finally sent back home, his mother was nowhere to be found.

She had fallen sick again and ended up back in the hospital.

Hector, distressed, didn’t visit.

Just two days later, he got the news: she was dead.

At his mother’s funeral, Hector felt numb.
