“But...I don’t want to leave without you.” Susan looks at him and holds his hands.
“That old witch is too fierce. If she knows about you and our baby, she will definitely uses her cruel means to deal with you. It’s only two hours’ drive from here to Binhai. I’ll come to you every week.” Bryant cares his son very much, and they must not be found by Hilda at this critical time.
“OK, it’s up to you.” Susan bows bows her head, and there is dark light flashing in her eyes. This old man is really easy to cheat!
“Susan, I will give you and our baby the best life. You don’t have to think about anything else, just take good care of our baby. I’m here to protect you!” The vanity of Bryant’s male chauvinism is fully satisfied. What he needs is this kind of obedient girl.
“OK, I’ll wait for you.”
“When you get there, I’ll arrange two more servants to take care of you. And also, I’ll buy you a car, so that it’ll be more convenient for you to go out.”
“Honey, you’re so nice to me!” Susan hugs him, and fawns to him sweetly.
“You’re about to give birth to our son, how can I be not nice to you? You are more tender and considerate than that old witch. If I can, I also want to give you and our son...”
Susan covers his mouth. “Honey, don’t say that. I don’t need any status. As long as you’re here with me, and our baby can grow up healthily. It’s enough.”
Bryant feels more ashamed when he finds that she doesn’t complain about anything even when she suffers in grievance. He says, “Susan, how lucky I am to have you in my life.”
“No, it’s me who is the lucky one.”
Bryant hugs her in arms, feeling warm and satisfied.
However, this kind of warmth is interrupted by the harsh bell. Susan helps him take the cell phone as usual. She looks at the caller ID, and shows her panic on purpose. “It’s from your wife.”
“Give it to me!” Bryant is a little restless.
Susan pretends to be scared. She hides in his arms and listens to their conversation.
“Bryant, why aren’t you in the company? Where are you?” Hilda asks in a serious tone to question him.
Bryant is a little afraid in heart, but he straightens his back, and answers firmly, “I’m meeting with a client to talk about the G.I project bidding. Without Dakings cooperation, we have to get the G.I project bidding as soon as possible.”
“Really?” Hilda is a little dubious of what he said.
“Of course, you know the current situation of the company. We have to fight for it.”
“Fine. Just come back earlier.”
“OK.”
Bryant hangs up the phone in a hurry and kisses Susan. “ Sweetie, I gotta go.”
He knows Hilda well. Now that she has questioned him about his whereabouts, her trust in him must have been greatly reduced.
“OK, be careful on the way back!” Susan hands him the coat.
“I’ll arrange you to go to Binhai as soon as possible. You have to get ready and leave in a few days.” Bryant says.
“OK.” Susan kisses him again.
After Bryant left the house, she goes to the balcony to watch his car go away. Then the smile on her face suddenly disappears. She takes out her mobile phone and goes back to the living room to call Poppy. “Miss Green, I’ve asked him to arrange me to leave here as you said.”
It’s just as Poppy expected. “Did he agree?”
“Yes. I’ll leave in these days.” Susan adds.
“Good. I guess you don’t need me to teach you what to do then. But remember, do what you have to step by step, don’t make him think you are...”
“I see.”
“Great! I’ll keep in touch with you.”
After hanging up, Susan shows a little worry, but she can’t help getting excited when she thinks of that she is going to have billions of money.
“Knock knock-” Mrs. Murphy knocks at the door, and glances around as if she is doing bad things. She lightly asks, “Kenny, open the door.”
Kenny opens the door and finds his mother. He is a little surprised. “Mom, it’s so late now. What are you doing here?”
“Go into the room, I’ll tell you.” Mrs. Murphy pushes him in and shuts the door immediately.
“Mom, what’s so mysterious?” Kenny feels wired.
“Look.” Mrs. Murphy takes out the condom and laughs, “Kenny, take a shower and go to the guest room. And then you can...”
Mrs. Murphy winks to give him some hints.
“Mom, you bought these condoms?” Kenny gets stunned. How could his mom be so...wired? And she even brings him condoms. Isn’t she always eager to have a grandson?
“You don’t have to know that. Just remember, if Poppy doesn’t agree to do that, then don’t. Don’t even try to force her. Or maybe you can suggest wearing a condom.” Mrs. Murphy says to him seriously.
“Mom, how could you buy me the condoms?” Kenny is still surprised.
“Hey, don’t be so surprised. I bought it for my son. Poppy will live here for several days, you should seize the opportunity.” Mrs. Murphy puts the condoms into his palm. And then she slaps him heavily on the shoulder, as if she is handing him a very difficult but important task.
“I...” Kenny looks at the condoms and feels uncomfortable.
“Why are you still standing here. Go take a shower now. And remember, wear some perfume before you go to her room. Don’t forget this kind of flirting thing.”
“All right, fine, just...leave me alone.” Kenny feels his mom is so nagging.
“Don’t be so impatient, you little boy. If you have been with her, I wouldn’t have to be so worried about you two.” Mrs. Murphy keeps murmuring as she walks out of the room.
Kenny looks at the box of condoms. He still has a wired feeling. He throws it aside and ignores it.
