Chapter 421
\nCome on Daddy (Bright and Rose) novel Chapter 421<\/p>\n
It was a woman. She squatted beside the big tree, circled herself with her arms, and looked down. Her long black hair hung down at the back, looking like silks and satins.<\/p>\n
Matthew could not see her clearly, but found that her shoulders were trembling gently.<\/p>\n
Matthew carefully stared at her for a while, his eyes as cool as the night.<\/p>\n
He did not say a word, turned around, and was about to leave.<\/p>\n
The woman heard his footsteps and glanced at his moving figure, saying weakly, “You… don’t go.”<\/p>\n
Matthew paused and did not turn around, his voice low, “What are you doing here?”<\/p>\n
The woman swallowed twice, not knowing how to speak.<\/p>\n
“You shouldn’t come!” Matthew’s voice was full of anger. He was displeased that this woman appeared around his house.<\/p>\n
“I…” The woman pursed her lips, her eyes watery, “I just come to thank you for helping me today. Thank you.”<\/p>\n
“In fact, I was unwilling to do it. If it were just me here, I wouldn’t have interfered. You were lucky that Mrs. Lee couldn’t bear to see it. So, I lent a hand. Don’t overthink it.”<\/p>\n
Matthew said in a cold and harsh tone. He didn’t soften at all and disassociate himself from what he had done.<\/p>\n
“Get the hell out of here.”<\/p>\n
After saying this, Matthew continued to go away, as if he didn’t want to stay here for a second longer.<\/p>\n
“Matthew,” The woman saw that he was going to leave and called out to him sharply.<\/p>\n
“Ms. George, please call me Mr. Matthew,” Matthew corrected her, and did not plan to stop at all.<\/p>\n
He quickly walked out of the low bushes and headed for the opposite building.<\/p>\n
The woman was anxious. She hesitated, gritted her teeth, and finally chased after him recklessly. Her pace was a little unstable.<\/p>\n
She instinctively reached out to pull his wrist without thinking. But just as she touched Matthew’s skin, he raised his hand to shake her off.<\/p>\n
The woman’s centre of gravity was unstable. Besides, there was injury on her ankle. So, she fell to the ground after being shaken off by Matthew.<\/p>\n
The rough ground cut the skin of her delicate palm and arm. She endured the pain on her ankle and hand and didn’t dare to scream again.<\/p>\n
Matthew turned to look at the woman who was slowly sitting on the ground. His eyes were cold and full of anger.<\/p>\n
“Lana, enough! Your trick in front of me is useless!” Matthew’s face was calm.<\/p>\n
Lana looked up at his distinctly chiseled face with her soft eyes.<\/p>\n
His indifference made her feel that he kept a distance from her. She could not get close to him even if she tried her best to reach out.<\/p>\n
“Matthew, I didn\u2019t.” Lana shook her head, defending herself.<\/p>\n
“What are you trying to do this time?” Matthew frowned, ignoring the sadness in her eyes.<\/p>\n
He would never forget in his life how vicious she was behind her beautiful face.<\/p>\n
It was because of this face that he had believed in her. So, he paid a terrible price.<\/p>\n
“I just wanted to come and see you.” Lana was serious, “I just want to quietly watch you from afar, and did not want to disturb you.”<\/p>\n
“Do you think I’ll believe you when you say that?” Matthew sneered with heavy irony, “You want to see how poor I was during the years you abandoned me?<\/p>\n
She turned around with a smile. She had fallen and twisted her ankle in the restaurant and was limping now.<\/p>\n
The dim streetlight stretched her slender figure….<\/p>\n
Matthew did not leave, but watched her go further and further.<\/p>\n
He frowned for a moment, and then relaxed. Without another glance, he turned and stepped up, his tall figure disappearing inside the door of the building.<\/p>\n
He went upstairs and sat down in the living room.<\/p>\n
He reached into his trouser pocket and took out the box of cigarettes. He took one and lit it, lifting it to his thin lips.<\/p>\n
The white smoke blurred his cool and handsome face.<\/p>\n
He just stared at somewhere, lost in thought.<\/p>\n
It wasn’t until the ash burned into Matthew’s fingers that he shook his hand and threw it away, only to find his son standing in the corridor to the bedroom.<\/p>\n
Wyatt raised his hand and rubbed his drowsy eyes, “Daddy….”<\/p>\n
“Why are you awake?” Matthew asked him, “It’s cold. Hurry to go to bed.”<\/p>\n
“I’m going to the bathroom.” Wyatt walked towards Matthew with a childish voice, “Daddy, why aren’t you asleep? And you’re smoking. Are you missing Mommy?”<\/p>\n
Matthew paused and reached out to hold his shoulder, “Why do you say that?”<\/p>\n
“Because I know that Daddy is missing Mommy when you smoke.” Wyatt looked like he knew it anyway, “Daddy, I miss Mommy too. Let’s go get her back, okay?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1390","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/touchgame.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1390","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=1390"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
