The Ugly Wife’s Stunning Comeback novel Chapter 1192

Just as expected, his voice was significantly softer when speaking to Yara.

"I miss you, Uncle Jeremy," Yara said sweetly. "When are you coming back?"

"I will be back as soon as I finish my work," Jeremy replied warmly.

Yara put on her best pouty voice. "But when will you be finished? You haven't played with me in so long. Can you come back for the holidays?"

Heather stood to the side, giving her daughter an enthusiastic thumbs up.

Jeremy's tone grew apologetic. "I am sorry, Yara. I’ve just been too busy lately. I will make sure to spend lots of time with you when I get back, okay?"

"So you are not coming back to see me for the holidays? You do not care about me anymore."

Jeremy fell silent for a moment. Hearing Yara's soft, pleading voice melted his heart. "Then I will try to find a few days to come back."

"Okay," Yara cheered.

"Are you with your mother right now?" Jeremy asked.

Heather immediately waved her hands frantically at Yara. Catching the hint, Yara lied smoothly, "I am reading in my room all by myself. Mommy isn't here."

Just then, a piercing car horn blared nearby.

Heather jumped in fright, infuriated enough to want to kick the car behind them.

"Then finish your reading and go to bed early, Yara," Jeremy instructed gently.

Heather let out a massive sigh of relief.

"Okay, bye Uncle Jeremy. You make sure to eat well and get lots of sleep too."
