Joey looked at Maggie who was crying with her mouth pursed. He turned his head with his eyes closed.
"Daddy, can you let mommy come back? I miss mommy so much. I miss mommy so much..."The crying little girl pulled Joey's sleeve and begged sadly, "I will listen to you in the future. I will be great. Every time I go to get the little red flower, Dad..."
The little girl was crying in his ear. She pulled his sleeve hard, and the hot tears fell on the back of his hand, which made him feel sorry for him. Joey turned around, lifted the little boy's arms, put her on his legs and patted her gently.
"DadI will be obedient and sensible. I don't want to bother dad. I just want mom to be with me... "
"In the afternoon, I saw my mother during the break. They all lied to me that it was not my mother, but I knew it was my mother. I won't be wrong!"
Maggie cried in a soft and hoarse voice. Every word she said was clearly in the heart of Joey. Since Lois couldn't see her, Joey knew better than anyone else. At most, it was just a back or a voice, but the little girl was so sure.
Joey took out a piece of tissue and wiped off the tears on Maggie's face. He pressed her face against his chest and rubbed Maggie's hair with his chin.
Anyway, she was still a child. Joey looked at the little girl who had fallen asleep. There were still tear stains on her face, and her hair was a little messy with tears sticking to her face.
Joey turned his head to look out of the window. Two couples came in and out of the dessert shop from time to time. Occasionally, a couple went into the dessert shop with their children in their arms. The happy look of the couple was enviable.
Joey carefully put Maggie on the passenger seat, fastened the seat belt and drove away from the milk tea shop.
Thinking of Lois's health and Maggie's begging just now, Joey smiled bitterly, "I won't disturb dad. As long as Mom...
How could an ignorant child say something reliable? But he believed in all her words. It was an ancient saying.
Joey looked around at the busy street. His daughter, who was bleeding, had his shadow in her eyes and brows, but he felt that Lois was everywhere. All of these made him want to roar happily, but his heart was as painful as a knife.
The car slowly drove into Gu Family's house. Joey stopped the car, picked up Maggie from the passenger seat and strode into the hall.
The servant had already prepared the dinner. She walked up to him and asked, "Sir, when will you start eating?"
Joey went upstairs silently with Maggie, ignoring the servant's question.
Tania took the dinner back to the hospital. Lois had woken up and was sitting on the bed in a daze.
Tania closed the door of the ward and walked to the side of Lois. She put the simple table on the bed and put the dinner in the bag on the table. "You'd better cheer up as soon as possible, Joey won't give you the child even you get to be a disabled person."
Lois didn't say anything but lowered her head in a daze.
"I went to meet Joey just now. It seems that he doesn't intend to let you go. Even if you don't want the child, he won't let you go."
Lois looked up in surprise. Tania said expressionlessly, "I can't help you manage the company in the future. I have offended Joey today. It's not sure whether I can keep my own business. You'd better run your company well!"
