Chapter 81
Chapter 81 Ricky Strikes
The moment Bridget's nails came down, Ricky's steady little body suddenly leaned back at a very flexible and agile angle, avoiding Bridget's attack naturally.
Bridget didn't get to touch Ricky and was a little stunned. She didn't expect such an outcome.
By the time Ricky's body nimbly bounced up and quickly took a few steps back to increase the distance between them, she had already lost the initiative to touch him. Bridget looked at the little boy in shock. The jealousy and coldness in her eyes intensified. "Ha, Isabella is indeed quite a schemer. She actually taught you self-defense."
Ricky looked at her silently and slowly frowned. This woman knew her mother, wondering if she could be her mother's enemy.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
At that thought, Ricky's gaze turned cold.
Bridget looked at the calm child opposite her who did not panic at all. She realized more and more that this child's temperament would definitely be another genius of the Lockwood family in the future. With such a descendant, the Lockwood family was really not afraid of decline.
However, that wouldn't do her any good. After all, he was Isabella's son.
If that child died, she would give birth to another child in the future. Her own child might be as smart and outstanding as the child in front of her. "No, I would only nurture him to be more outstanding." She thought.
At that time, he would be the chieftain's wife of the Lockwood family and his son would be the Lockwood family's chieftain in time. At that time, she would become the matriarch and the overlord of the Lockwood family.
Thinking of this, Bridget's breathing couldn't help but quicken. She was a little excited. She looked at Ricky with undisguised killing intent.
She quickly approached Ricky and swung her poisonous nails at Ricky's face for the second time.
Ricky looked at her coldly and turned to run very calmly.
Although Ricky had some self-defense skills, age limited his performance. After all, he was only a little more than four years old. It was impossible for him to fight against a capable adult like Bridget. Even though Ricky ran fast, Bridget, who had decided to kill Ricky, still grabbed the back of his collar.
The back of her collar was attached to the bear hat, so she could not touch Ricky's skin. The only thing she could do was to pull Ricky over and poison him.
At this moment, Ricky also realized the danger, so he shouted, "Dad!"
Bridget subconsciously froze, but she quickly reacted. "This little thing was actually cheating. Ha, only four years old, but already so scheming. As expected, he couldn't be kept alive!"
A cold light flashed in Bridget's eyes. Just as she was about to attack, a very angry voice sounded from behind. "What are you doing?"
Bridget froze right afterward.
Ricky looked back in surprise. He pushed Bridget away and ran towards Draxton.
Draxton came out a little late and didn't see what had happened between Bridget and Ricky. He only saw Bridget grabbing Ricky's clothes.
However, that action alone was enough to anger Draxton.
He knew very well how obedient and sensible Ricky was. Bridget was clearly bullying Ricky due to size difference.
He picked Ricky up, who was running over, in his arms. He could clearly feel Ricky's small hand holding his clothes tightly.
The child was nervous.
Draxton's heart ached. He looked at Bridget angrily.
Bridget knew that it was impossible for her to do anything to that little thing today. She simply followed Ricky's push and fell to the ground. Then, she turned to look at Draxton pitifully. "Draxton, the kid pushed me. I just wanted to have a good talk with him. I didn't expect him to be so hostile to
me."
Hearing that, Draxton and Ricky frowned in unison.
Both of them were very angry. The woman actually lied, and it was such a clumsy lie.
However, Draxton knew that he could not take action against Bridget's previous rough behavior towards Ricky.
As long as she didn't admit it, he had no legitimate excuse or reason to deal with her.
On the other hand, Ricky felt that when adults lied, they could really bend the truth as they saw fit.
Ricky felt that he had learned something that day.
Ricky looked at Bridget unhappily. He said softly, "Daddy, she's lying. She wants to kill me!"
Draxton's expression suddenly changed.
He did not expect Bridget to be so bold!
Suddenly, he looked at Bridget as if he was looking at a dead person. That cold and vicious gaze made Bridget felt cold all over. She felt as if she was being stared at by a ferocious beast.
The hairs on her entire body stood on end. Her small face turned pale as she shook her head repeatedly. "No, no. Draxton, how could I have such thoughts? How can you think of me like that? Just based on a child's one-sided words? Draxton, you can't treat me like this."
In fact, Bridget's heart was in turmoil, wondering why didn't Draxton seem to be weak, and why was his aura still so shocking.
Ricky frowned even more and said firmly, "Dad, I'm not lying."
Ricky thought for a moment. His mother had taught him that if he wanted others to believe him, he had to have evidence. Hence, Ricky suddenly flicked his finger and a transparent little thing flew towards Bridget.
