Chapter 234: Bear My Child

Erick had been sulking in his study the whole day, reviewing all the investigation reports regarding Black Shadow and Catseye. After dinner, he went back again to his study.

Even though he didn't say a word, Elle could tell that he was still bothered by the incident that happened to Marie. She couldn't stand to see him like that so she decided to talk to him.

When she entered his study she saw Erick leaning on his chair with his eyes closed. His right hand was on his forehead. The fatigue was evident to his troubled face.

Elle couldn't help but sigh deeply as she approached him. She moved to his back and she bent down to hug him from behind.

She placed her head on his shoulder as she circled her arms around his neck. Smelling the familiar sweet scent and feeling the warmth of his beloved wife, a gentle smile automatically formed on his face.
