I Only Want You novel Chapter 1235

As soon as Isaac entered Maxwell's study, he saw Richard waving his head and played with the green parrot raised by Maxwell.

"Come on. Sing a song for me."

The green parrot raised its head proudly and didn't pay attention to him at all.

"You don't want to sing? Then say a few lucky words."

"Hey! How dare you be so arrogant? Silly bird!"

The proud parrot looked down at Richard at this time and replied crisply, "You're silly!"

"Holy sh*t! Whether you believe it or not, I'll skin you alive today!"

"Silly! Silly!"

James couldn't stand it anymore and rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Richard, don't you feel bored? What's the point of teasing a parrot? The parrot raised by Maxwell can't be cute!"

Richard shrugged his shoulders, "I'm just looking for some fun, aren't I?"

"Look for fun? Humph! It's more important to get down to business. How's it going?"

"Since I'm here, you can rest assured." Saying this, Richard turned around and pointed to a row of solid wooden bookcases behind the desk, "Issac, your mother is over there."

Isaac looked at Richard with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Richard said, "Haven't I developed a new little thing? It can recognize people's faces and then locate the person after identification. Although it's easy to say, the new technology needs to be practiced and verified, so it took me some time. However, I'm quite satisfied with the result. At the beginning, I wondered why your mother is here, and the study looks very ordinary. I searched a few times before finding the key."

As he said this, he went to the bookcases and stopped on the right side where there was a framed flower shelf. There was nothing strange about the flower shelf, but Richard raised his hand to touch the inner wall of the flower shelf. He twitched it slightly, and then the rows of bookshelves moved to both sides. A small path which was almost half metre broad appeared in the middle of the bookcases.

Isaac narrowed his eyes and had figured out what was going on.

"Oh my!" James's eyes widened, "Maxwell is really cunning!" Then he turned to look at Isaac, "Did you know that there was such a path here before?"

Isaac shook his head, "I didn't often come here in the past. Although I came here sometimes in the past few years, how could Maxwell let me know this? If I am right, maybe Lucho doesn't even know this place."

"I think so." Richard nodded, "At first, I wondered if there was something wrong with it. I thought he would hide your father as far away as possible. As a result... Maxwell is quite careful. He used a signal interference unit. It is a new type of interference device. Although you talked to her on the phone, it was difficult for you to find her location."

He snorted, "Moreover, before you came here, I went down to have a look. The basement is quite big, and the environment is not bad. There's a back door which leads to the ground."

Isaac did not speak and only looked at the path quietly. Words couldn't describe how he felt at the moment. He rarely came here in the past, but he often came to Maxwell's study in the past one year. However, he had never thought about it.

If he had known it earlier...

If he had known it earlier, his mother would have suffered less, wouldn't she? Even if Richard was right and the environment was not bad, it was just a basement. How comfortable could it be? How could his mother live a good life in the basement everday?

James glanced at Isaac and did not say much. He patted on his shoulder gently, "Isaac, let's go down and take a look first."

Therefore, Richard led the way, while Isaac and James followed him.

His heart suddenly skipped a beat when he saw those instruments. After taking a few deep breaths, he stepped forward and went inside.

The closer he was to his mother, the more his heart ached. When he saw Marrlin's face clearly, he felt so grieved that he wanted to kill Maxwell.

Marrlin was not tall. She was only in her early fifties, but she had white hair and sallow skin, because she was malnourished and hadn't been exposed to the sun for a long time. In his memory, she was gentle and amiable. Although she was not particularly beautiful, she was the best and greatest mother in his heart.

But what about this time?

She lay there weakly and was as thin as a rake. If it were not for the slight ticking from the instrument next to her, he would have doubted whether she had died and would never wake up.

Isaac stood in front of the bed, trembling all over. He wanted to reach out to touch Marrlin's face, but he did not raise his hand several times.

He took a deep breath. As if he had been mentally-prepared, he leaned over slightly and took Marrlin's skinny hand lightly, "Mom..."

He called her softly, but she didn't give him any response. At the moment, Issac couldn't restrain himself anymore and tears poured down his face instantly.

It was unmanly to cry, but Richard and James were touched. They looked at each other. Although they wanted Isaac to leave with Marrlin as soon as possible, they didn't speak.

Marrlin's hand was not only thin, but also cold. However, Isaac felt at ease in heart. When he was a child, he was happy as long as he was with his mother, though he lived a poor life.

At this time, he finally found her. She gave him life. Before he came to the Bai family, she had protected him. It was time for him to protect her.

"Mom, I'm here to pick you up. Let's... go home..."
