章 83: AND I OOP–

"I THINK you shouldn't be involved in this mission," Neoma said seriously. "Lewis, please stay out of this."

To be honest, she expected Lewis to be angry or to bomber her with questions.

But she never expected him to suddenly burst into tears.

All of a sudden, Lewis's face turned red as big, fat tears rolled down his cheeks quietly. Her son looked so pitiful that her conscience instantly kicked her hard. She was suddenly reminded that Lewis was still an eleven year old child.

"Lewis, did I offend you?" she asked carefully. "I'm sorry."

Lewis shook his head while wiping his tears with his hands. "It's my fault for being inadequate, Princess Neoma."

"Huh?"

"You're firing me because I'm useless," he said in a cracked voice. "I'll do my best to be more of use to you, so please don't throw me away, my princess."

Okay, she was gutted.
