Come on Daddy (Bright and Rose) novel Chapter 503

Chandler was so anxious but he still had to remain calm, "If I make an appointment now, when can I meet Mr. Lee?"

"Well, if you make an appointment today, you will have chance to meet him half a month later." While speaking, the front desk lady checked the appointment schedule.

'Half a month? The Linder Group will be doomed after that!'

Chandler could never afford to wait for so long. He turned around to leave, looking worried.

Seeing that, the front desk lady said to his back, "Mr. Linder, do you still need an appointment?"

However, Chandler still hurried to leave as if he heard nothing. He then sat on his car and said to the chauffeur, "Take me to the house of Francis Lee."

For him, that was his last hope. If he failed to meet Bright, he could only ask Bright's father for help.

Chandler kept gasping on the way there. He still looked overcast when he reached the house of Francis.

As he pressed on the ring button, the butler came over to receive him, "Hello sir, who are you?"

"I am the father of Rose, the wife of Bright. I happen to go for a business trip in City J so I am here to visit Mr. Francis." While speaking, Chandler was also carrying some luxurious gifts.

"Oh, glad to meet you, Mr. Linder. But Mr. Francis needs rest as he felt ill during the early winter. So he went to the hot spring vacation villa with Mrs. Francis." The butler said apologetically.

Hearing that, he turned to be even colder than the chilling winter. He was rendered so desperate after encountering so many difficulties recently.

Actually, he had been living a smooth life since he was born though his father once blamed him for marrying Joy. But Joy was pregnant at that time. So his father still admitted their marriage.

But now he couldn't even meet his own daughter and his son-in-law. Even Francis had gone on vacation. The crisis of the Linder Group really sucked all his energy. Now he was rendered tired, dizzy and even a bit suffocated.

"When they will be back? Can I go to visit them in the villa?" Chandler mustered up courage to ask.

"Sorry, they won't be back until it gets warmer. Besides, Bright has an order that no guest is allowed to visit them." The butler said as Bright once told. Then he continued, "Mr. Linder, do you want to come in for a cup of hot tea?"

"No, thanks." Chandler shook his head and left.

Chandler then got back to his car. Though the car was equipped with heater, he still felt chilling cold all over.

"Mr. Linder, where shall we go now?" The chauffeur saw from the mirror that Chandler leaned against the seat with his eyes closed. He looked exhausted.

Chandler didn't answer. Nor did the chauffeur dare to ask more.

After quite a while, Chandler told the chauffeur to take him to the Ginkgo Villa. Since he couldn't meet Bright in person, he had no choice but to wait beside his villa. He deemed that he might still have a chance.

When they reached the house, Peter led them in and they entered the parlor after changing their shoes, where Rose was sitting opposite them, looking calm when seeing their arrival.

"Rose…" Chandler called her name kindly.

"Mr. Linder, please take a seat and have a cup of tea." Rose lifted up a glass of tea from the table and took a sip.

Chandler felt chilled indeed. So he took a sip of the hot tea and said, "Rose, I am your father. Please don't address me as Mr. Linder. That really hurts me. I know that your mom has said harsh words to you and it hurt you. So I made her here apologize to you."

Chandler gave Joy a tug, who still remained silent, hoping that she could apologize sincerely.

"Apology isn't needed." Roes didn't care and continued, "I hope that both of you can stop pestering me from now on."

"Rose, we are not pestering you! I am your dad! And my company is now facing a crisis. I just want to ask you and Bright for help. Besides, you will still inherit the Linder Group in the future. The damage of the group does no good to you!" Chandler couldn't help being anxious.

"But it does no harm to me." Rose answered calmly, "I don't want the Linder Group. Just leave it to your daughter, Sophie Linder. I think she needs it better than me."

"Rose, you…" Chandler tried hard to suppress his words to rebuke her for being heartless, "Sophie is no more qualified to be my daughter. If it weren't because of that idiot, the Linder Group would not have been in such a crisis! Believe me, you will be the only inheritor of the Linder Group. If you don't trust me, I can have my will drafted immediately. And I will make you the only one who can inherit all my property. So could you please ask Bright for help to bail dad out?"

"Dad? Do you still deem yourself my dad? You should be aware that your only daughter is Sophie! My dad has gone for long!" Though Rose tried to hold back her anger, she still lost control when hearing that Chandler had been asking for help in the name of her father.
