Come on Daddy!

Chapter 192 Fickle Parents

Alan tasted his porridge, then said, "Honey, it's wrong for you to act like this. I am being good to you and caring about you."

Nora felt very uncomfortable, "Thank you for your concern. But please leave it to your girlfriends. I don't deserve it."

"I said I don't have any girlfriends now. I'll take good care of you in the future." Alan was not angry at all and looked at her with soft eyes.

"Come on." Nora also sipped the porridge, "I don't need it. Alan, we'd better keep the previous relationship."

"Has our relationship ever changed? We've always been a couple," Alan said with a grin, his teeth neat and white.

Nora put down her spoon and stared at him with a smile, "I don't care about you."

She also stopped having breakfast, picked up her bag and said to Rose, "Rose, I will take you home."

"It's the weekend. You rest at home and I'll go back myself." Rose wanted Nora to have a good rest at home.

"I always enjoy myself with feasting and other kinds of entertainment. The outside world suits me better." Nora took Rose's hand, "Don't stand on ceremony. I'm not a stranger."

Rose was pulled by Nora to leave. She turned to Alan who was still eating breakfast, "Mr. Way, bye."

"Ms. Rose, take care. Welcome to come here later." Alan raised his hand and waved at Rose with a smile.

When they walked outside the villa and got into the car, Rose asked Nora, "What are you doing? You even did not have breakfast."

"I cannot enjoy my breakfast with him around." Nora started the car and drove away from the villa.

"Then where are you going?" Rose was worried as Rose was about to go out alone.

"I can go shopping, receive beauty treatments, or have a tea. I don't want to stay at home and face him." Nora had always lived as she wished. As long as she had something to do, she would not think about other things.

As an adult, she had to persuade herself to live well and be happy.

Rose looked at Nora who was smiling and in high spirit, and put on a faint smile, "It seems I am too worried."

"I did lose my temper yesterday. But I'm fine now." Nora smiled brightly at her, as if she wasn't the one who had a breakdown last night, "A little indulgence now and then can avoid endocrine disorders."

Rose was amused at her humor this time.

Nora took Rose to the Linder family's villa and left.

When Rose got home, Doris threw herself into her arms, "Mommy, where were you last night? I was so scared to be alone."

"You can sleep with Great-Grandma." Rose stroked her forehead and said.

"Great-Grandma is old. I didn't want to worry her. But Grandma did fall asleep with me and told me a story." Doris pursed her lips lightly. She also did not expect her grandmother, who had never liked her, to be so affable.

Hearing this, Rose paused and looked up at Joy. Although she couldn't forgive her parents for what they had done, she should thank Joy for helping to take care of Doris.

"Thank you, Mom." Rose said distantly.

"We are family. Don't mention it, Rose. When you have something to do, I'll take care of Doris for you. Don't worry." Joy was no longer as sharp and mean as before. She smiled and was like a different person.

"Yes. Rose, Doris is our granddaughter. You can work or spend time with Bright as you want. Your mother and I will take good care of Doris. It is what we should do as grandparents." Chandler also put on a flattering smile and was in a completely different attitude.

Rose knew that her parents had changed like this because of Bright. She had become his wife. So, she was assuming his authority.

"Thanks for your kindness. But there is no need. Bright said we will take Doris with us wherever we go in the future. Last night, something happened to Nora. It was a special situation. I will try not to bother you guys in the future." Rose did not want to owe them too much.

They were just trying to curry more favor with Bright through her so that they could get more benefit in business.

She wanted to tell them not to waste their efforts. She wouldn't help them, even if she could.

"As for Bright, he and I have agreed to keep public and private affairs separate. I will never ask him about his work. And I don't need him to help me with my job." C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Chandler just forced a smile.

"If it's all right, Doris and I are going upstairs." Rose picked up Doris and went upstairs, asking Doris, "Where do you want to go today? Mommy will satisfy you."

"Great."

Looking at Rose and Doris disappearing around the corner, Joy said to Chandler, "Did you hear what she just said? She is not going to help you and our family. Didn't we waste our time last night? I even did not sleep well."

"She still holds a grudge against what we have done before. It cannot be eliminated in a short time. But as long as we have been good to her and Doris, we can slowly soften her. Anyway, we are her biological parents." Chandler lightly patted his knee, "And she is also a member of the Linder family. Who else can she help except for the Linder family? Does the Lee family need her help?"

"Besides, as long as we are good to her, Bright will see with his own eyes and keep it in mind. Then, he will do us a favor anyway. Now, we are his wife's father and mother. He will respect us and will not go against us in public at least, right?"

"So, we'd better help Rose. Don't complain. If we get rid of the resentment in her heart all these years, can't we get benefits from Bright?"

Joy nodded in agreement with Chandler's analysis, "You are right."

"That is why it is said that women always have long hair but are short-sighted." Chandler pointed at Joy, as if he was saying that Joy was too stupid.

"Who are you talking about?" Joy resented Chandler for daring to say that about her, "Haven't I paid for you and the family after I married you? Since you think I'm so useless, then you sleep on the couch tonight!"

Seeing that Joy was angry, Chandler had to apologize and hold her shoulders, "Honey, I am sorry. It's my fault that I said something wrong. Please don't take it to heart."

Joy snorted, turned around, and ignored him.

"Come on." Chandler looked around, "If you are really angry, you can curse or hit me as you like after we go upstairs and close the door. Doris is still here. As her grandfather, please spare my feelings, okay?"

Joy still ignored him and put on a long face.

Rose, who had changed her clothes, came downstairs with Doris. When they passed by the living room, Doris waved at them, "Grandpa, Grandma, I'm going out with mommy, bye."

"Bye, Doris." All at once, Joy and Chandler's serious faces softened into grins.
