Chapter 8 Mother Urges You to Get Married

Being accepted officially, Alfie hugged Dianna in great joy.

"Diana! We have a daddy now! No one in the kindergarten could say that we don't have a daddy!"

"But what about Mommy?" Diana, the clingy girl, was a little worried. "Can we see mommy again?"

"Of course, we can." Alfie put his arm around Diana's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "Don't forget that our next goal is to match Daddy and Mommy."

Ivan, no longer frowning, said in a low voice, "This is your home from now on. If you need anything, tell Jordan. Of course, you can also tell me."

"Daddy! I love you!" Alfie confessed excitedly.

He pulled Diana to play hide and seek with the servants, eat delicate pastries, guess riddles, drive kids' sports car... Hopefully, Diana's missing of mommy will be dispelled.

With Alfie's efforts, Diana felt better. After all, she was a child.

The large villa, which had been solemn and lifeless, became lively, filled with the laughter of children.

Ivan's long-lonely heart also became warmer. His empty heart seemed to be filled at once.

Kids played downstairs.

Ivan went upstairs into the study. When he was about to reply to the email, his phone rang.

Ivan slowed down, took his phone out, and answered the call, "Mom."

"When exactly will you marry Catherine Collins?" Aubree Marsh had wanted to ask this question for a long time, now he finally couldn't wait. "Give me a date."

Ivan stood in front of the window, staring at the children playing in the courtyard, and asked unhurriedly, "Can't you call me for something else?"

"Nothing is more important than this one!" The woman on the other end of the phone said in a cold tone, "Catherine will be here at five o'clock in the afternoon, pick her up at the airport."

Ivan tucked one hand into his pocket, his thin lips lightly opened, "Tomorrow is the 20th birthday of the mayor's daughter. I have to go to the dinner party. So, I have no time to pick her up."

"Ivan!" Aubree got anxious. "It doesn't matter. Then go back with her for dinner the day after tomorrow and we'll discuss the marriage."

"I'm not going to marry her." Ivan refused bluntly. "Stop expecting it."
