Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 1145

Chapter 1145 Change (2)

Elliot choked up for a moment, and the time on his watch showed 3:07 PM. When he looked up, it had just turned to 3:08 PM.

"Do you want to leave now?" Elliot didn't expect her mood to suddenly turn sour and become somewhat aggressive. He felt helpless but also softened inexplicably. Without saying anything more, he reached out and took her hand, standing up and looking at the children. "It's getting late. Do you want to go back? Shall we go together?"

His voice was low and magnetic with an unreserved indulgence that made Rose feel complicated.

Leah and Sean were obedient to Rose, so when they heard she wanted to leave, they immediately ran over to surround her. "Mommy, are you tired? Let's go back! I don't want to stay here anymore."

Rose smiled as she touched their heads gently. "Okay then, let's go back."

Shawn stood beside them watching wistfully with envy written all over his face until Rose waved him over with a smile. "Shawn, we're going home now but we can play together again with Leah and Sean later if you like?"

Shawn immediately smiled broadly before walking towards Rose; then he stopped to look at Elliot who was gazing tenderly at her before nodding heavily in agreement.

And so it was that Elliot left behind a large group of employees from his company as he took the children home while his assistant received a phone call informing him that Mr. Harper had abandoned all work for once taking his wife and kids home instead.

The company staff chat group exploded into discussion about this event; most people were just there for gossiping while some began shipping Elliot and Rose.

Meanwhile, the people involved in this incident were on their way home; Elliot drove steadily in his Bentley while three children sat in the back seat with Rose sitting beside him occasionally glancing backwards.

Elliot caught glimpses of them through the rearview mirror feeling relaxed yet joyful inside as an overwhelming sense of satisfaction filled him - how could he have missed out on all these years?

If only... if only they could have a child together...

Elliot couldn't control his thoughts any longer. He followed them involuntarily, feeling his heart grow warmer as he frequently glanced over at the person sitting next to him.

Rose naturally noticed his intense gaze and felt uncomfortable and confused. When she turned to look at him, she saw that he quickly averted his eyes and pretended to focus on driving.

"You--" Rose began to speak but was interrupted by a ringing phone.

Elliot looked ahead at the road and spoke softly, "Get my phone out for me."

"Huh?" Rose looked at him in confusion before realizing what he meant. "Oh, where is your phone?"

"In my pocket. Hurry up and get it out for me. I'm driving," Elliot said impatiently, glancing quickly in her direction with an annoyed tone.

Rose was taken aback by his words and didn't know how to respond right away.

In the backseat of the car, Sean and Leah exchanged a glance but pretended not to hear anything as they focused their attention on the two adults in front of them.

Since moving into Elliot's villa with Rose these past few days, Sean had changed his opinion about Elliot based on rumors he had heard before. He thought that Elliot treated Mommy pretty well even though he didn't recognize him as a father yet. For now, Sean decided not to oppose him anymore since he seemed okay enough towards Mommy.

Rose hesitated for a moment before reaching into Elliot's pocket for his phone while thinking that it was too intimate of an act between them.

"Come on, Rose! Are you shy or something?" Elliot clicked impatiently when she still hadn't retrieved it yet.
