Elisa White changed Bruce Brich’s pajamas and stuffed him into her bed.
Bruce Brich looked at her with an austere look on his face, and then closed her eyes obediently.
Elisa White couldn’t help but kiss his little face and got up and went downstairs.
Emily heard footsteps and asked without looking back, “Is Bruce asleep?”
“Hmm.” Elisa White sat next to Emily and watched the family ethics drama with her. “Dad’s affairs have turned around, don’t worry.”
“I’m not worried about him. I’m more worried about you.”
“Worried about me for what?” Elisa White was puzzled.
“You and William Brich just got married, and giving him so much trouble most of the time is not good. Besides, you have been married for so long, how many times have you been to the Birch Manor? You should have some knowledge of what a daughter-in-law should do. I’m used to being able to conform with the needs of society or what society suggests. I won’t let you learn such trivial things. Look at you now, after marriage, it is similar to not getting married.”
Elisa White’s forehead creased and her eyebrows raised, ” William doesn’t mention. Do I ask directly like, ‘is there ever a time that we will go to your house for a meal?’ to meet-up with my in-laws!”
“Then I’ll kill you first!” Emily gave her a white look angrily. “In addition to having a good relationship with his family, there are also things about having children. In this case, because of Bruce Brich, you can’t have children for at least two or three years, maybe longer. At that time, you will be an elderly woman.”
“Mom, I beg you. Can you stop being such a worrywart? I just got married for a short time, can you not mention children?”
“If you think about such a thing, I don’t bother to worry about it for you.”
“You are still as good as before, don’t worry.”
“Weigh it yourself and be accidentally kicked out one day, don’t say I didn’t remind you.”
“I see. If I was kicked out by them, I will take you to the streets to beg.”
Emily didn’t bother to continue to take care of her and went upstairs to rest.
Elisa White watched Tv and got bored for a while, and suddenly found that her recent life was really closely narrowed.
Since she got married, she had been at home except at the hospital, and she hadn’t even visited the streets.
That kind of life was too dull.
Elisa White took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Ellen. As she was about to call her, a message popped up from the notification. It’s from William.
“How is Bruce?”
Elisa White looked at the time it was sent to her, it wasn’t long when she received the message. Ten minutes ago, it flashed from the screen.
She replied, “Fortunately, he is taking his siesta now.”
Elisa White just about sent out the message when William called.
Elisa White quickly picked up the phone and said, “Hello.”
“Do you want to come down? I am downstairs.”
“Why don’t you come up? If Bruce can’t find anyone when he wakes up. Surely he’ll get upset and cry or worse get angry?”
“He’s not a cry baby, come down.”
“Good.”
Elisa White took a coat from the hanger at the porch, put it on and went downstairs.
As soon as she got downstairs, she saw William leaning against the door, and she didn’t know what she was looking at.
Grandfathers and aunts in the community or young girls who didn’t go to work on weekends were almost all eyes on William, prying on them.
William opened the door of the passenger seat for Elisa White when she walked out of the unit door.
Elisa White waltzed in the middle of the watching crowd.
The car soon drove out of the community and drove to a street park around Elisa White’s home.
Elisa didn’t know how to congratulate William Brich. He looked at her with confusion.
William’s hand brushed the sense of direction and didn’t make any noise.
Elisa waited for a while and felt that his concentration was not as strong as William.
She spoke decisively first, “Elisa, how’s your situation there? Your boyfriend opened the door, you want a divorce? Divorce is ok, I don’t plan to pay back the two hundred million.”
William was speechless. “In your eyes, I’m not as important as two hundred million? With me, you will have more money.”
“Isn’t that the bottom line? Without you, I have two hundred million, fleeting feelings and it is very beautiful.”
William snorted directly and didn’t bother to take care of her.
Elisa was accustomed to her mother’s musings, and she didn’t care. She looked at the lake outside the window.
There was snow by the lake, and the leaves on the lake were yellow and dull during the winter.
Elisa White found herself looking at a lake with nothing and enjoying it, and suddenly felt that her life was so bleak.
What a spiritual pursuit she was.
William glanced at Elisa from the corner and found that her profile was as beautiful as a blooming flower.
Especially her eyes.
There was clarity and incandescence in black and white, and there was child-like innocence.
Elisa rebuked William and squinted at him.
“Look at one hundred million at a time, boots and boots.”
“You are so funny, does your family know?”
“I know. I was led by them, ahem.” Elisa White recedes her smiling expression.
“I want to thank you for asking someone to help deal with my dad.”
“You are my wife, how could I let others bully my father-in-law, I don’t want to stick my face in the mud.”
“I think so, too, so I just thank you verbally.”
William Brich paused, “…”
Elisa looked at his speechless expression and couldn’t help laughing. “Let’s go. I’ll cook tonight and treat the great hero well. Even my mother hasn’t eaten any of the meals I’ve prepared for several years.”
“I feel touched. I’m looking forward to what you’re cooking tonight.”
“Absolutely.”
William rubbed her head directly and didn’t want to talk to the little woman.
Elisa White wondered, “So tell me what’s the purpose of you being here today? Did you suddenly feel that I am beautiful and lovely, and decided to make a fake play with me?”
“Didn’t we do it?” William replied slowly.
Elisa swallowed hard and wanted to bite off her tongue.
“What are we really doing here?”
“See if you have taken my son away.”
“You worry too much! I haven’t gained courage to this extent.”
William looked at his watch. “Let’s go buy food.”
“No!”
“What did you say a few minutes ago?”
Elisa said seriously, “If you go to the supermarket, all eyes are on you again.”
“Say it as if you have the right to say no.” William started the car directly and parked in the parking lot of the nearby supermarket.
Elisa White said without hope, “William, wait in the car. Buying food is trivial and everything that I need for later should be complete, let me do it myself.”
William didn’t utter a word but took off and opened Elisa’s side of the door, with a gentlemanly gesture.
Elisa got out of the car with a lot of murmurs.
Sure enough, as Elisa expected.
As soon as she and William appeared in the supermarket, they attracted everyone’s attention.
Of course, those eyes were stuck like glue on William.
Occasionally, their eyes fell on her and moved away in less than a second.
If she ever imagined what the crowd were thinking they would most probably say, “It is a waste of resources for such a beautiful man to be with a woman thrown into a crowd. I wish I could stand beside him.”
