Blizzard First Love and a Wife Who Finally Snaps novel Chapter 452

Edmund knew what Isabel was asking. “It was just a small punishment. Dad said it’s what men fear the most. It should wear off in about a month.”

Isabel flicked his forehead. “You’re a real clever one, aren’t you?”

Edmund immediately hugged Isabel’s legs. “Mom, are you angry?”

“But shouldn’t you be happy? Adrian is miserable.”

Isabel pinched his small cheek. “If you keep acting on your own like this, I’m not going to teach you anymore. I don’t think I can teach you anything anyway, you’re so brilliant.”

“I’m sorry, Mom,” Edmund apologized at once. “I just wanted to get back at him for you.”

“Haven’t you gotten back at him enough already? Have you forgotten that Oliver almost died?”

Edmund pressed his lips together and nuzzled against her. “I understand, Mom. I’ll never do it again, I promise. Please don’t be mad, and don’t send me away.”

Isabel sighed. “I know your intentions, but the issues between him and me are for adults to handle. No matter how smart you are, you’re still only nine, right? For anything you do, your guardians—that’s me and your dad—have to take responsibility.”

“You had your fun, but we’re the ones who have to deal with the consequences, aren’t we?”

“Let me put it this way: the resolution between him and me is something I have to handle myself. No one else can interfere.”

“As for why… you’ll understand when you’re older and fall in love with someone.”

“I won’t punish you now, but remember, you made a promise. If you break it, you won’t ever see me again.”

Edmund quickly raised his hand as if taking an oath. “I promise I’ll never do anything again without your permission. If I do, you can ignore me forever.”

Isabel gently pushed his hand down. “Alright, that’s enough. You don’t need to worry about this anymore. I’ll handle it.”
