Ice and Fire novel Chapter 602

"Haha, Cherry, you are so popular in the family. I heard that your husband and son used to fight for your love and now your son and daughter are competing for your attention. How I wish I could hold such a position in my own family. You know, I don't need to be so busy anymore. I will stay at home like a queen and ask them to serve me." Amy grinned widely. She liked the family atmosphere, where everyone teased each other and had fun.

"So, you are saying that Derek doesn't treat you well? Hah, I know for a fact that he spoils you too much. What else do you want?" Cherry questioned, grinning back.

"Don't say that! Since we had Alice, I am not the one getting spoiled anymore. He has shifted all his attention to his daughter," Amy complained outwardly, but Cherry could tell she didn't mind that.

"It's not like that! Daddy loves you very much! Don't you know Daddy carries you to the bedroom every night when you fall asleep on the sofa?"

Alice suddenly denied.

Alice's words made Jackson and Cherry laugh out aloud. Lawrence too joined in. Violet looked around in confusion, unable to understand what was so funny.

"Alice," Amy warned her, feeling awkward. Her daughter was too talkative.

"Aunt Cherry, what I said is true," Alice tried to convince Cherry.

"I trust you! It's absolutely true!" Cherry replied firmly and snickered, which satisfied Alice very much.

"Cherry, when did you become naughty like the kids?!" Amy was so embarrassed that she didn't know what else to say.

"That's fine. Mommy, let's go home now! When will Daddy be back? I miss him!" Alice asked, picking up her school bag. She lifted it on her back.

"He is already on the way," Amy answered. She turned to Jackson and Cherry, saying,"Jackson, Cherry, see you later. I am taking Alice home."

"Okay," Cherry nodded, a small smile on her face.

"Lawrence, Violet, bye!" Amy bid farewell to the children.

"See you!"

Lawrence and Violet responded as they saw Amy take Alice outside.

"Lily, is our dinner ready? I am starving," Lawrence announced and headed to the kitchen.

"Yes, it will be ready soon," Lily replied.

"Okay, Violet, let's go and have dinner." Cherry gripped her daughter's palm and walked into the dining room.

The family sat around the table and ate, chatting occasionally.

"Lawrence and Violet, I have something to tell you," Cherry said seriously as she looked at her two kids. She took a quick look at Jackson who nodded at her calmly.

"What's up?" Lawrence asked curiously.

"Mommy, what's going on?" Violet also asked her in a surprised voice.
