Rose waved to Doris. “Come here Doris, and don’t always pester uncle. Uncle is very busy and has a lot of important work to do. Let’s not make him stay too long.”
Rose clearly wanted to kick Bright out of the Linder’s house.
The light in Doris’ big beautiful eyes dimmed down. She wanted to play with handsome uncle. He made her feel as if she was being loved by her father.
But she was afraid that her mother would be sad, so she dared not make it too obvious that she wanted a father. Sigh… so difficult.
“Even though uncle is busy, I have some time to spend with you. Besides, it’s off work now. No matter how busy uncle is, he still needs to rest, eat and sleep. Don’t you think so?” Bright easily handled Rose’s intention to kick him out and looked at her. “Miss Linder, because of you and Doris today, I haven’t eaten yet. I’m hungry. Didn’t you want to thank me? Why don’t you reward me by cooking a meal?”
“CEO Lee hasn’t eaten yet?” Chandler checked the time and saw it was already eight o’clock.
“Yeah.” Bright nodded with a chuckle.
“Rose, go to the kitchen and cook some food for CEO Lee.” Chandler instructed Rose. If the Lee family knew that Bright was hungry while he was at the Linder’s place, then there would be no hope for cooperation in the future. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? How could you neglect such a guest as important as CEO Lee?”
“CEO Lee is so busy. How do I know that he didn’t have time to eat?” Rose defended herself.
In fact, she just doesn’t want him to eat here at all.
But he wanted to stay here again. How annoying.
“Rose, since Bright helped you and Doris, and we are not stingy people, we should prepare a meal for Bright. You go to the kitchen to prepare some food. Have Elena help you.” Jennifer also stood on Bright’s side this time.
“Oh.” Rose had no choice but to go to the kitchen. Right before she turned around, she stared at Bright, the “culprit”.
Bright raised his eyebrows slightly and curled up his beautiful thin lips to form a faint smile. His eyes were full of triumphant happiness.
He seemed to be saying that he was justified in eating this meal.
The only ones left in the living room were Bright, who played with Doris, Jennifer, and Chandler.
“Bright, is your grandma’s health okay?” Jennifer and grandma Lee met by accident. They were both in Switzerland due to poor health and met while recuperating. They got along well with each other and soon became friends who kept no secrets from each other.
It could be seen from the fact that grandma Lee asked Bright bring birthday wishes to Jennifer that their relationship was good.
“Very good.” Bright said.
“The news said that you are already married. Where is your wife from? Your grandma told me that you are quite old, yet you are still single. I didn’t expect that you have been married for three years. Now your grandma can rest assured.” Jennifer also wanted to confirm.
“Yes, I’m married. She is from City H.” Bright answered patiently.
“It seems that Bright is tied to City H by fate.” Jennifer said with a smile.
She watched Bright play with Doris patiently. The two interacted very lovingly and looked like father and daughter.
Jennifer shook her head twice as she watched, feeling deeply moved.
If Bright hadn’t been married, he would be a perfect match for Rose in terms of his character and accomplishment. And since he truly liked Doris, he would be a very good father.
It was just a pity that they weren’t fated. He was already married and already belonged to someone.
“Grandma Linder, I’ll introduce her to you once I have the chance. I promise that you will like her very much.” There was a hint of joy in Bright’s voice. It seemed that he was very satisfied with his wife.
“I think your grandma would like to see her granddaughter-in-law more.” Jennifer was relieved for her friend. “I am worried about Rose now. She raised a child up by herself and suffered through hardships all these years. I just want her to have a good home and a good man who will take care of her for me. I won’t have any regrets then when I pass away.”
“Mom, CEO Lee is here. Why are you saying these discouraging things…” Chandler frowned.
“Why can’t I say it? I didn’t treat Bright as an outsider.” In Jennifer’s eyes, Bright was the same as her grandson. “Bright, you know a lot of people, more than an old lady like me. If you have friends or classmates who are suitable, please introduce them to Rose. We are not asking for a lot. As long as they have good character and treat others well, it is enough.”
“Grandma…” As soon as Rose came out of the kitchen, she heard her grandma selling herself, making her seem like she wasn’t wanted. Sigh, grandma wasn’t even worried that Bright would laugh.
Besides, Bright was her hidden husband. Asking her husband to find men in front of him… this was too embarrassing.
Bright’s handsome face was calm. “Grandma, I will pay attention.”
Pay attention?
Rose really wanted to laugh. Since when was he responsible for finding her next husband to get married to after their divorce? How kind-hearted of him. Perhaps he should be rewarded with the title of the best ex-husband of China?
“Thank you, Bright.”
“Let’s not bother CEO Lee with this kind of thing.”
Jennifer and Rose spoke at the same time but said totally different things.
Jennifer stretched out her hand to pull Rose’s sleeve, frowning and hinting that she should not talk nonsense.
Rose was very dissatisfied, and of course it was aimed at Bright.
He knew everything, yet he still wanted to stir up trouble. How hateful.
“Bright, this girl talks this way. Don’t take it to heart.” Jennifer explained, afraid that Bright would really not help out. She pushed Rose again. “Why did you come out when you were cooking in the kitchen?”
“The meal is ready, please head to the dining room to eat.”
Rose turned around after speaking. She didn’t stay in the living room to be an eyesore.
“Uncle is going to eat.” Bright stretched out his hand and stroked the top of Doris’ head. “Be good and play by yourself for a while.”
“Okay, eat lots, handsome uncle so you can have the strength to play with me.” Doris made a cheering gesture.
Bright could not help but laugh and went to the dining room.
The only people in the huge dining room were Bright and Rose.
There were three courses and one soup on the table, enough for two people.
“You cooked it all?” Bright unbuttoned his suit and sat down gracefully.
Rose scooped a bowl of rice and placed it in front of him while grinning. “Yes, don’t eat it if you are afraid.”
“Could it be possible to kill me?” Bright joked as he looked at the delicious courses.
“That’s hard to say.” Rose lowered her voice and smile crookedly. “Be careful that the food is poisonous.”
“You are not afraid of being widowed, so what am I afraid of?” Bright leisurely held up the bowl and used a pair of chopsticks to pick up some shredded beef with celery. He then placed the food in his mouth and started eating while smiling calmly with satisfaction.
But this made Rose very uncomfortable. “Do you think I will be a widow for you? Don’t joke, I am still young. How can I be afraid of not being able to get married?”
“Why don’t you try?” Bright narrowed his eyes slightly while his gaze became sharp.
