Ch. 281 The Secret Tunnel

Mei Yin held Elliot's tiny hand that was touching her neck. She rubbed the corner of the child's eye to wipe away the tears that threatened to come out. "It doesn't hurt. I'm fine, so don't cry. If you keep crying, I will cry too. If I cry, my neck will hurt." was her ridiculous reasoning. But it worked like magic as Elliot stopped crying that instant.

"I'm not crying."

Anxia shook her head, watching the interaction between the two. Before this, Elliot was jealous of Lori because he had been able to be with his parents since birth. But Elliot didn't know Anxia was jealous of Mei Yin and Jamie.

Even though Elliot admits that now his favorite people are Anxia and Richard, they cannot stand between Elliot's bond with Mei Yin and Jamie. Those two people were the source of Elliot's peace since Loraine Shu brought the boy here, and only those two people sincerely loved little Elliot and gave him mental support.
