“Doris, in fact, your mother has already agreed to let me take care of you.” Bright interrupted Rose, not wanting her to say anything that would hurt the child's heart.
He knew that after Rose knew about their marriage and knew that he was her nominal husband, she was still unwilling to face reality.
He also knew that Rose was not at ease because of this marriage and even showed more anxiety.
He was afraid that her anxiety would affect the child.
Although the child was young and sensible, she was more sensitive and fragile.
“Mom, is that true? Is what handsome uncle the truth? He’s not lying to me?” Doris grabbed Rose's hand and looked up, wanting to get confirmation.
“Of course.” Bright took the initiative and answered.
“Mom?” Doris still persisted in getting an answer from Rose.
She and her mother had been dependent on each other for many years. Mom was her only one. This feeling couldn’t be replaced by anyone.
“Mom knows you are kind, but I hope Doris can give mom some time to think about this matter. This is also something between us two adults. We will discuss it carefully before telling you our decision, okay?” Rose held her daughter's little hand in her palm and spoke gently and softly.
There were some things she didn’t want to say in front of Doris. Doris liked Bright so much, so she was afraid of making Doris sad.
This was kind of like her stalling tactic.
As for the matter between her and Bright, she had to find time to have a good talk with him.
“Yeah.” Doris nodded happily. “Then mom, will my great grandmother like me? Who else in the family besides great grandmother?”
“Great grandma is a very loving elder, and of course she likes Doris. Otherwise, why would she be anxious to have me take you home?” Rose’s fingertips tapped the tip of her daughter's pretty nose. “In addition to great grandma, there are grandma and grandpa at home.”
“Then will they like me?”
“They...” Rose was thinking of how to word her response in order not to harm the child.
“Everyone likes Doris. How could they not like Doris? You need to have confidence in yourself.” Bright encouraged Doris. “Look, you’ve even conquered my heart is conquered. What else is there to worry about? Uncle doesn’t come to like people very easily.”
“Yes, I'm very well-behaved and cute. Grandpa and grandma will like me.” Doris was confident.
She leaned her small body against Rose and cuddled her mother.
Rose stretched out her hand to encircle Doris's small body, lowered her head, and looked at Doris in her arms. Doris also looked up at her mother. The two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
Bright looked at the warm and beautiful scene at the back, and surprisingly, his heart felt warmth and was moved.
He also wanted to have a happy family, a lovely daughter, and a gentle wife.
Bright, who had never thought that marriage would become his life goal, really hoped it would come true at this moment.
When Bright stopped the Maserati at the gate of the Linder’s villa, everything seemed to have gone back to square one.
Rose and Doris got out of the car, and Bright brought Doris’ luggage out of the trunk.
“Thank you.” Rose held Doris in one hand and wanted to grab the luggage in the other.
“I'll see you in.” Bright felt it would be inconvenient for her.
“No, it’s fine.” Rose refused.
As soon as he entered the Linder's house, there would be an uproar, and maybe their marriage would be exposed.
She didn’t want to admit that she was married when she was going to divorce soon. By then, she would only get laughed at by her parents, who didn’t want to see her, and Sophie, who hated her. They would call her an abandoned wife.
