Bright took a tissue and dabbed at his nose. What was wrong? Why would he sneeze?
"Mr. Lee, have you caught a cold? Shall I call Dr. Matthew to check it out?" Peter was a little worried about his health.
"No, don't worry. I am just a bit busy this period of time and a bit tired." Bright recently flew to several cities in North America. He hadn't had enough rest. So he was tired.
"You must take care of yourself." Megan put a bowl of soup in front of Bright. "This soup is good for your health. You should drink more of it."
"Thanks, Peter and Megan." Bright threw the tissue away. "I'll be careful."
Bright drank the soup gracefully. It tasted warm and comfortable with a hint of Chinese medicine.
"Don't you all look at me, have your dinner." Although he was cold by nature and said few words, he showed his kindness to them by his actions.
Peter and Megan, for example, had been with him since he moved to the Ginkgo Villa ten years ago.
They took good care of him and cared for him more than his parents did.
Although they were the housekeeper and cook here, in Bright's heart, they were his family.
Instead of letting them eat alone, he ate with them, just like the family.
Peter and Megan were also grateful and loyal to Bright.
"Don't hesitate to let us know if you're uncomfortable." Peter reminded him.
"Yes, the sooner you find it, the sooner you solve it." Megan added.
"I'm really fine. I'm just tired." Bright just came back this afternoon. Now he had a headache.
"Go upstairs and have a rest. Put away the work today. Work would never be finished, just do it tomorrow." Megan looked sadly at the tiredness in Bright's eyes.
"Yes." Bright curled his lips.
After dinner, Bright wandered around the garden before he went upstairs. He should have a good sleep tonight.
After taking a bath, he dried his black hair and went to bed.
He glanced at his phone. It was 20:,30. It had been a long time since he'd gone to bed so early.
Suddenly Doris, whom he hadn't spoken to since his last call, came to his mind.
He wondered if Doris thought about him these days. And Rose...
He tried to call Rose, but he deleted the number he had already typed in his cell phone.
Well, forget it. Think about it tomorrow.
He put out the light and went to sleep. As he was so tired, he soon fell asleep.
In the dream, Rose and Doris were having a good time with him and even heard Doris call him "Daddy"...
Doris, in the bedroom, was sitting on the sofa obediently. She pouted her pink lips, watching Rose carefully.
"Why did you say that at dinner? Rose asked after ten minutes of silence.
"Didn't I tell them who handsome uncle is?" Doris pursed her lips, feeling aggrieved. "I won't let them know even they want to. I just want to whet their appetites and make them think..."
Everyone was asking who the handsome uncle was after Doris had mentioned him at the dinner.
Of course it was Bright, but she didn't tell anyone.
