Come on Daddy novel (Bright and Rose) novel Chapter 186

Rose was surprised and calm once she heard May take the initiative to mention what happened five years ago.

May said that she believed her. Rose knew that May was sincere. She could see guilt and shame in May's eyes.

"You don't have to apologize. Everything had gone and I'm fine now." Rose didn't want to mention the past, "And I'm grateful you believed in me."

It was a scar. Every time she mentioned it, it was as if she was tearing her scabbed wounds apart again.

And even if she said, did it matter? Without evidence, who would believe her?

Now that May was Sophie's mother-in-law, if she really said it, it would seem that she was alienating May from Sophie.

"I am glad to hear that you are fine." Noticing that Rose did not want to talk about the past, May changed the subject and talked about something else, "Are you married now?"

May went to the VIP lounge the day of the reception because she was dizzy. So, she didn't know what happened outside.

"Yes." Rose said frankly.

"What kind of a man is he? He must love you very much, right?" May's face was concerned, as if Rose was her own daughter.

May used to treat Rose as her daughter. However, she didn't expect something like what happened five years ago to ruin their relationship.

"He doesn't mind my past and that I have a daughter. He also treats my daughter as if she were his own child. He gives more when we're together. But he never complains." Rose spoke of Bright, her face alight with happiness.

Hearing this, May felt happy for her, "That is indeed a good man."

"So, I just want to hold on to the happiness I have now. Nothing else matters to me." Rose felt that all the pain she had suffered before had been gently soothed by Bright.

"Rose, I'm relieved to see you happy. It's Sky who doesn't deserve you. It's the Tanner family who is sorry for you." May felt guilty, "I just hope you don't hate us."

"Mrs. Tanner, isn't it good that Sky is with Sophie now? Sophie got pregnant with Sky's baby. They're happy too." Rose kept her smile as if she was sincerely wishing for it.

May didn't answer and just nodded gently.

"Where is your husband? Didn't he accompany you today?" May mentioned Rose's husband again.

"He went back to City J this afternoon for work." Rose was parched and took a few sips of lemonade to moisten her dry throat, "He's from City J."

"City J?" May frowned when she heard City J, "He is from City J. Then, he must know Mr. Bright. I heard that you and Mr. Bright are familiar with each other because of your work."

"My husband is none other than Bright." Rose did not hide anything.

May, however, turned pale and knocked over the glass of lemonade in front of Nora. The water trickled down the table and dripped on her skirt. But she seemed not to notice it and remained motionless.

"Mrs. Tanner." Seeing this, Rose called out to her twice and took a napkin to wipe the water.

May came back to her senses. But her face was still pale and even her breathing was heavier a bit.

"Are you okay?" In Rose's memory, May was always elegant and calm. She had never lost her composure like she just did.

"I'm sorry. I am feeling a bit ill." May felt that the corners of her forehead ached dully again.
