The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 1275

He used to be a frequent visitor here, chasing butterflies with Niki in the garden and playing with building blocks in the living room. Back then, he too was the pampered young master of the Chapman family. But now, he felt like an intruder, so awkward he didn't know what to do with his hands and feet. He stood stiffly in the center of the room, his gaze fixed on the floor, not daring to look at the familiar decor.

Niki sensed his discomfort. She pulled him onto the sofa, poured him a glass of warm water, and said, “Don’t be scared, Raffy. Mom and Dad are at the office. They’ll sort everything out when they get back.” With that, she scampered upstairs, darted into the study, picked up the phone on the desk, and quickly dialed Danielle’s number.

Danielle’s gentle voice came through the line, and Niki immediately exclaimed, “Mommy! Raffy is at our house! He’s so miserable. His school kicked him out, and the Chapman house is sealed off…”

Danielle listened, then paused for a moment before responding in a serious tone, “I understand. Dad and I are on our way back now.”

After hanging up, Niki let out a sigh of relief. She pattered back downstairs and gave Raffy a brilliant smile. “Mommy and Daddy are coming home right now!” Raffy looked at her bright, sunny face, and a wave of warmth washed over him, though his eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.

Before long, the sound of a car engine came from outside. Alexander and Danielle walked in, their eyes landing on Raffy on the sofa. Their expressions were complicated. Danielle strode over, knelt down, and studied Raffy closely. The boy had lost so much weight; his chin was sharp enough to be painful, and his large eyes were filled with fear and helplessness. Looking at him, she felt a pang in her heart. After all, this was the child she had personally raised for five or six years, from a babbling infant to a lively little boy. The time they had spent together day after day couldn't simply be erased.
