Doris pouted her lips slightly. Of course, she knew that she didn't respect Lina at all just now, and that she was too aggressive. But when she thought that Lina was going to take over her father from her mother, she couldn't help but hate her.
"Dad, I know, but that aunt can only see you. She must like you very much... I'm afraid she'll take you away. I'm afraid you won't want us. I can't let my mother be wronged or hurt. I did it to protect my mother and me, and I don't think I did anything wrong." Doris insisted on her idea.
Bright signed. Of course he knew Doris was worried about her mother. "Dad has always treated that aunt as a sister. What you thought are not going to happen. Unless your mother and you don't want me, otherwise I would not leave you." Bright assured her, "Besides, in your eyes, is your dad easy to be taken away and easy to be tempted away?"
"Dad, I believe in you, but sometimes the temptress's tricks are very powerful. Even the most powerful are not careful sometimes. What if you were to be tricked?" Doris was still worried. "I don't trust her."
Bright was speechless after hearing what Doris said, "Who taught you that?"
Shouldn't a child's world be simple? Why was Doris' world so complicated, like she knew everything?
"No one taught me. I knew that because I have seen and heard many things about that." Doris sounded like a grown-up. "When I was in kindergarten at City Y, I saw a kid in my class who wouldn't let her new mom pick her up. She said that woman was a temptress, and seduced her father, and gave birth to a younger brother. And that was why her father and mother were separated. She hated that woman."
"Daddy, auntie Lina wants to be my new mother too, and I can't agree to this and I won't accept it! My only mother is Rose."
"Daddy promises it wouldn't happen, and you only have one mother and that is Rose." Bright calmed her.
"Dad, you must not be tempted by that woman! I do not want dad and mom to separate. I do not want to be like that child..." Doris was very insecure.
Bright took Doris in his arms and held her by the shoulders. "Don't think too much and don't talk nonsense. You have to trust dad. Aunt Lina and father grew up together. If dad liked her, I wouldn't have waited until after I married your mom. The only person dad is going to spend the rest of his life with is your mom."
"Dad, I love you." Doris's little hand gripped Bright's shirt.
"Daddy loves you, too." Bright bent his head and kissed Doris on the forehead.
After he had a talk with Doris, Bright started to work. He was very busy with his work, having many files to check and many decisions to make.
They had lunch in the office. Masie ordered the nutritious meal for Doris, and the regular meal for Bright.
"It's delicious." Doris put a mouthful of food into her mouth and looked at Bright with smiling eyes. At that moment, Doris looked like a real child.
Bright said, "If you like it, dad will have the food delivered to your kindergarten every day."
"No, the kindergarten's food is good, too. Besides, we have paid the money. We can't waste it." Doris was a frugal child. "Mom and dad work very hard to earn money," she said.
Bright's lips curved and he said, "Well, finish it quickly."
Doris ate happily. Looking at Doris, Bright had a good appetite.
