The man raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a smirk, “Don’t want me to feed you too?”
The woman’s small face shifted a few times, suddenly putting down her chopsticks and squeezing out a flattering smile, “I’m full, just watch you eat.”
The man also put down his chopsticks, raised his cup and took a sip, looked at her coldly and said, “You really come to me at all times to punch the clock and look for scolding.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes lowered her eyes and wiped her nose, her mind spun around and she spoke carefully, “Is there something you … are hiding from me? I remember the last time I saw my grandfather, he could still walk on his own, so how come he suddenly got used to being in a wheelchair?”
The man sat, look light, in addition to a little cold, can not see any emotion, “people always have to get used to some things they do not like, so old you still expect him to walk with the ground like you, others push than he himself to save effort.”
“Is there something wrong with his health?” She didn’t want to beat around the bush with him anymore and asked in a straightforward manner.
“Out of the question he shouldn’t have stayed here.”
Phoebe Barnes was silent, unable to refute, if the old man really had a health problem at this time is also in Ross’s hospital to stay right.
“Tch, what a coincidence, in time for dinner.”
The familiar sound of flirtatious laughter suddenly came from the doorway.
Phoebe Barnes looked up to see the visitor and her face changed slightly, “Dr. Pei?”
Her eyes once again looked suspiciously at Kemp Ross.
Where King Pei is concerned, nothing good can come out of it.
“Yo, Little Moe is also here?” King Pei saw her and smiled, looking at the table full of food, rubbed his hands and said with dissatisfaction, “You guys are really wasteful, three people can eat so much?”
He sat down without any ceremony at all, picked up a pair of chopsticks from the side, and started eating.
Phoebe Barnes tightened her brow, “What is Dr. Pei doing here? What’s wrong with him, Grandpa?”
King Pei was eating, not taking his eyes off the food in front of him, “The old man? He’s fine, isn’t he? I’m your family’s personal doctor, of course I’m here to give him a conditioning, he just has a bad appetite recently, and some colds, your family’s wife what role you do not know, it is difficult to find a clean place.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes frowned and gave him a thoughtful look, then glanced back at the man.
Is there really nothing going on?
Kemp Ross kicked him from under the table and scolded him coldly, “Now that you know what you’re here for, why don’t you get over there?”
King Pei choked for a moment, gritting his teeth and glaring at him, “What’s the difference? Can’t you wait until I’ve eaten? I haven’t even eaten dinner yet.”
Phoebe Barnes was a bit confused and said casually, “Kemp, it’s a waste to have leftovers, you just let him eat them.”
Said, and also casually placed the full plate in front of him, lightly smiled, “Dr. Pei you take your time to eat.”
Kemp Ross narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes became a little cold, and suddenly stood up, “In that case, you can eat with him here.”
King Pei, “…”
He cursed fiercely in his heart, then showed a warm and gentle smile, “Little Moe don’t mind him, we both eat.”
Phoebe Barnes, however, had long since risen, her eyes following the man’s back as he walked out, “Take your time, Dr. Pei.”
“Kemp, wait for me.” She chased after him anxiously.
The corners of King Pei’s mouth twitched hard, “I cao! This pair of dogs and men!”
…
It was already late at night when the two of them returned together in the car to the Bayswater Cloud Residence, Phoebe Barnes was already too sleepy to open her eyes, but still hugged the man’s arm, her soft voice was a little slurred, “Can you stop being angry, ignoring me all the way. I don’t disbelieve you, I’m just afraid you’ll put everything on your own single, I don’t want you to be so tired.”
The man suddenly stopped and looked down at the woman who had almost fallen on top of him, pulling the corners of his mouth into a cool smile, “And you believe what King Pei says?”
The woman stood up slightly straight, sleepy and strong eyes to look at him, her feet are beginning to stand unsteadily, “He, he is a doctor.”
“You want to take up for me?” The man cupped her jaw and lifted it up, his low tone slightly cooler and a little more forced, “Phoebe Barnes, are you in love with me? Planning to live with me for the rest of your life?”
“I …” the woman’s small hands picking at his arm, curling her red lips, as if drunk, sleepy head shaking from side to side, eyes half-squinted, voice soft and feeble, “No… I don’t want to spend my life with you, why should I give you children? I’m just in love with you, don’t you know?”
Seeing that he did not say anything for a long time, she suddenly slowly opened her beautiful eyes and held his face with a dumb smile, “Are you … willing to live with me? Are there still plans for a divorce?”
The man stared at her for a while, smiling low and holding out a touch of meaningful words, “What if I divorce you later?”
The woman beamed her lips, closed her eyes and thought for a moment, spitting out a few words, “Then give me custody of the child.”
“…”
Kemp Ross’ eyes suddenly chilled almost to the naked eye, squeezing her shoulders and gritting his teeth coldly, “Phoebe Barnes, you’ve made up your mind so quickly? You just want the kids after the divorce?”
The woman was suddenly filled with cold air hit a jolt, sleepy also dispersed a few points, shrunken neck, looking at his handsome face covered with frost, timidly said: “or you can give me what else? You don’t even want me, I’m not greedy for money, I just want a child what’s wrong?”
The more you say, the lower your voice gets.
“He …” the man inclined his head, pinched her chin, cold and cruel hooked lips, “your only contribution in the Ross family is to give birth to a child, you are gone, and still want to take him with you, you think I will agree? ”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes’ nerves were jabbed, and now she sobered up completely, looking at him with a somewhat ugly face, “You can’t be so cruel, I have nothing but a child and you’re fighting me?”
Her heart suddenly tightened with unease, if it really came to that day she should do?
She couldn’t keep him, not even a child?
“Heh …”
The man just looked at her and smiled coldly, ripped her hand away, and lifted his steps into the villa.
As long as a child … she to is really decisive.
Phoebe Barnes stood in the doorway in a daze, her mind still a bit clouded, her features almost wrinkled.
It’s really asking for trouble.
But it is undeniable that the latter is indeed her intention, she wants nothing but him is this child.
“Madam, why don’t you come inside?”
When Chen’s mother saw her standing outside the door blowing the wind, she frowned and hastily pulled her in.
The woman’s dull eyes slowly returned to her senses and asked, “Chen Ma, has anything happened at home recently?”
Chen Ma shook her head, “Nothing happened, just that Mr. busy these days, did not return to the Aqua Cloud residence.”
“Oh, I see.” He’s probably staying at the sanatorium for the next few days.
