Chapter 2249 Cameron put Deedee on her lap. “Why are you so afraid of this uncle? You
don‘t need to be scared of him. He doesn‘t eat people.” Waylon squinted when Cameron
called him uncle. Deedee said in a low voice, “My uncle doesn‘t like me.”
Cameron knew that she was talking about Waylon‘s brother
She grabbed her hand and asked, “Then can you tell me why that uncle doesn‘t like you?”
She waited for a long while, but Deedee refused to open her mouth.
Cameron then pressed on and said, “This uncle isn‘t the same uncle that lives with you.
They‘re brothers, so they look alike. Come, take a good look at this uncle.”
She turned Deedee over to look at Waylon and said, “Even though he has this weird smile
on his face and likes to bully other people, he likes you very much.”
Waylon chuckled.

‘A weird smile? I like to bully other people? So that‘s what she thinks of me?”
Deedee seemed to have noticed the difference between Waylon and Colton, and her fear
slowly ebbed away
Cameron caressed her hair and asked, “So can you tell me now?”
Deedee hesitated for a long while before opening her inouth. “Because my aunt has a little
baby with him. I‘m afraid that my aunt will abandon me after she has her own little baby. I
don‘t want my aunt to have a little baby, so that uncle doesn‘t like me.”
Cameron was dumbfounded when she heard what Deedee said. It seemed like she did not
expect such an answer from Deedee at all
Children were simple and naive She assumed Freyja would abandon her when she had a
baby of her own, so she did not want her to have a baby...
She was just lonely, insecure, and afraid of being abandoned. However, if there were no
other third factor that indirectly gave Deedee the misconception, how would she think it this
way?
Deedee fell asleep in Cameron‘s arms while they were on their way home. She turned to
look at Waylon and asked, “Where are Deedee‘s parents?”
Waylon said, “It was Freyja who took care of her since she was born. Her father took a
wrong step and was led astray by his mother. He died because of Nollace in the end, and I
heard that her mother died after giving birth to her.
“She and Freyja didn‘t have an easy time when they were living with Freyja‘s mother. Her
mother was an extremist. She valued boys more than girls. Freyja was forced to take care of
Deedee, and because of that, she had a bad reputation. They had no one to rely on aside
from each other, and to Deedee, Freyja is her mother.”
Cameron lowered her head to look at the girl that was sleeping in her arms. “So, her mental
illness...”
“Frevia‘s mother caused it. She abused Deedee and traumatized her. Deedee knows that
Frevia intends to send her back to her grandfather at Yaramoor, so perhaps it‘s because of
this misunderstanding that Deedee thinks Freyja is going to abandon her.” Cameron

After all, Deedee was not related to him by blood, so she could understand if he did not
want to raise her.
Waylon looked outside through the window and said, “Considering our family‘s wealth, it
goes without saying that Colton is fully capable of raising her. It‘s just that Freyja has to
consider Deedee‘s situation. Deedee is, after all, not related to any of us. She doesn‘t have
parents, and Freyja is her only family member. Freyja is going to have her own children in
the future, so she may not be able to focus on Deedee.
“Besides, after Deedee starts attending school, she‘ll be exposed to the outside world and
may not be able to handle the gossip and criticism they throw at her.”
Cameron fell silent. Freyja was considering Deedee‘s future, but Deedee did not want to
leave her aunt‘s side.
Deedee was not attending kindergarten at this age because she was psychologically
challenged. She was insecure and sensitive, like a fragile porcelain doll.
