Chapter 38
\nCome on Daddy (Bright and Rose) novel Chapter 38<\/p>\n
Rose got back to her hotel room and the back of her feet was scratched for the long walk in high heels.<\/p>\n
She found some ethanol to disinfect, put some ointment on it and put a Band-Aid on in the end.<\/p>\n
She took out the scheme marked on the site today and turned on her laptop to work.<\/p>\n
Bright was especially serious and hard at his work and his comments were very reasonable. It made her, a designer, have to make some changes accordingly.<\/p>\n
However, as a man, would he be too abominable as a husband?<\/p>\n
She still couldn\u2019t figure out what kind of problem he and his wife might encounter that would allow someone else to take Mrs. Lee\u2019s place.<\/p>\n
Did he have some unspeakable difficulty?<\/p>\n
But he was Bright Lee, he could turn the cloud into the rain, he was omnipotent, who could bother him?<\/p>\n
Rose poked her head with her pencil, why the hell did she think such things.<\/p>\n
At this moment, her phone rang with a video call request.<\/p>\n
She clicked \u2018accept\u2019 and her daughter Doris\u2019s angel face appeared on the screen.<\/p>\n
\u201cHolle, Mommy.\u201d Doris was waving at her sweetly, \u201cHave you been good today?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2026\u2026\u201d Shouldn\u2019t she be the one who asked that? How come she became the daughter and Doris became her mom?<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s only 15:40 in the afternoon, you haven\u2019t got out of school yet, right?\u201d She peeked at the clock on the bottom right corner of the computer screen, how could she have the time to videocall her?<\/p>\n
\u201cThe teachers need to have a meeting early today, so we got off school early. I\u2019m in Auntie Jane\u2019s office. I miss you too much so I call you.\u201d Doris picked up the iPad and showed her the room around just to prove she was not lying.<\/p>\n
Her daughter\u2019s mouth was so sweet that it took all her trouble away.<\/p>\n
\u201cMommy misses you too.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis I know for sure.\u201d Doris raised her eyebrow proudly, \u201cbecause I\u2019m mommy\u2019s baby.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yes, her angel baby, her happy muse, a bright light in her dark life.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday is the weekend, where are you going with Auntie Jane? What are you going to eat?\u201d Rose was shining with a maternal warm light when she looked at her daughter.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a secret.\u201d Doris put her finger on her lip, acting mysteriously.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat a mischievous elf you are, even mommy can\u2019t know?\u201d Her look made Rose grinned.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course, there won\u2019t be any surprises if I tell you.\u201d Doris cupped her chin with her hands, her eyes most appealing.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you in a video with your mom?\u201d Jane\u2019s figure got in the camera, she put down the water cup and said hello to Rose.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you guys planning to do this evening?\u201d Rose was intrigued.<\/p>\n
\u201cA secret.\u201d Jane put her finger on her lips just as Doris did, revealing nothing.<\/p>\n
Jane and Doris smiled at each other, other people might take them as mother and daughter.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre you guys trying to squeeze me out as a stranger?\u201d Rose pretended to groan.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re not a stranger and we miss you. Love you.\u201d They both pout their mouths and put on a cute look.<\/p>\n
\u201cI forgive you two, for I\u2019m so pretty and a nice person.\u201d Rose pointed her chin with her hand holding the pencil.<\/p>\n
\u201cMommy is the most pretty women in the world.\u201d Flattery from Doris.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve got to go, otherwise we won\u2019t make it.\u201d Jane waved her hand and ended the call.<\/p>\n
Rose looked at the black screen, wondering what was this secrecy all about, even her couldn\u2019t know.<\/p>\n
She put down the phone and lost in thought for a moment before she continued her work.<\/p>\n
Suddenly she put down the pencil, got up and went to the bedroom, taking out a pink mid-sleeves long dress which outlined her sexy body, the end of her dress reaching her calf, both elegant and graceful.<\/p>\n
She did a peachy make-up on to match her pink dress, sweet and gentle, making her look approachable.<\/p>\n
Quick enough, Sky took his eyes away and restored his calmness, pretending not to know each other.<\/p>\n
Sky noticed Bright at the same time, \u201cHello, Mr. Lee.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Sky Tanner, welcome to City J.\u201d Bright greeted back.<\/p>\n
After they said their greeting, the elevator grew quiet as hell and it seems even more repressing with such a crowd in the small space.<\/p>\n
They didn\u2019t speak during the elevator ride, as more guests came inside, pushing Sky towards Rose and Bright, Rose lost her balance and accidentally stepped on Sky\u2019s foot.<\/p>\n
By instinct, Sky tried to hold her still by reaching out his hands, but Bright who was next to her held her still one step ahead, \u201cWhy weren\u2019t you more careful?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m alright.\u201d She gently broke away his arms and raised her eyes to look at Sky, \u201cSorry.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sky didn\u2019t respond as though he hadn\u2019t heard her.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon’t Mr. Tanner and Ms. Linder know each other? Why don\u2019t you speak?\u201d Bright saw that they both took each other for air.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not well acquainted.\u201d Sky tried to create a distance between Rose.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Tanner, your wife is my sister, and I\u2019m supposed to address you as brother-in-law.\u201d Rose decided to embarrass him.<\/p>\n
Sky frowned his eyebrow displeasingly.<\/p>\n
Brother-in-law\u2026\u2026how disturbing it sounded.<\/p>\n
But he wouldn\u2019t call her sister.<\/p>\n
Finally, the elevator reached the ground floor, guests went out one by one.<\/p>\n
Bright and Rose arrived at the hotel door, a dark Bentley Mulsanne was parked in front of her.<\/p>\n
He opened the door for her as a gentleman, what a match of a handsome man and beautiful woman.<\/p>\n
Sky watched them leave, and wondering about their relationship.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1007","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
