My Doting Husband novel Chapter 54

Kate looked at his perfect side face. She felt so warm. In her eyes, Ivan was always perfect.

"Why don't you bring your parents here for the New Year together? It’s so lonely that you spend the New Year alone." Kate suddenly asked.

Ivan's hand of holding the chopsticks paused. He stopped eating dumplings.

Kate didn't seem to realize Ivan's abnormality, and continued saying with blushing, "We have been together for so long. Should I see your parents..."

Before Kate finished speaking, Ivan put down his chopsticks and got up.

Seeing Ivan suddenly stopped eating, Kate was a little confused. She stood up and asked, "Why don't you eat anymore? Is it not delicious?"

Ivan walked to the coffee table, picked up the cigarette case and took out a cigarette. He lowered his head to light it. After a while, he said, "It's too late. You should go home..."

Kate's face turned pale. She was staring at Ivan with a little loss, "Sorry, did I say something wrong?"

Ivan turned his head. His eyes were gentle. After a long sigh, he walked to her and hugged her into his arms.

Feeling Ivan's sudden change, Kate felt nervous.

During this period of time, Ivan’s mood had often been unpredictable. Sometimes, he was not like him. She would observe his looks when she was speaking. Although she had always been good at observing others, in front of Ivan, she found that she couldn't see through him at all.

Maybe this was exactly why Ivan attracted her...

Ivan's voice sounded above her head, "I have become accustomed to be alone. If you want see my parents, we can wait until the New Year is over."

Hearing what Ivan said, Kate finally breathed a sigh of relief. She nodded, and said, "I don’t want to see you alone. I can stay here to accompany you..."

Ivan let go of Kate. After staring at her fixedly for a moment, he finally nodded.

...

In the Brown’s House.

Emma put the phone down with a puzzled expression on her face.

Officer Brown was standing on the balcony and was calling her name. Emma walked toward the balcony with her slipper.

Officer Brown held the crutch and looked out.

The colorful fireworks in the sky bloomed one after another, lighting up the whole night sky, beaming with joy.

Officer Brown said to himself, "When your cousin was young, he would take the initiative to set off firecrackers every New Year’s Eve. Unfortunately, after he went to France, there was not even a boy at home. It was too quiet and I always felt it is not like the New Year."

Emma knew that her grandpa missed the grandson, but she had no ways.

Emma's uncle and aunt lived apart all the year round. Their relationship was not good. Her cousin had been taken care of by his mother, so it was common that he was not close to Officer Brown.

Officer Brown sighed. He turned his head to look at Emma, patted the top of her head, and said, "When will you bring your boyfriend back to visit me?"

When being asked this question suddenly, Emma blushed and muttered, "I’m still young!"

Officer Brown smiled happily and nodded in response, "Yeah, I just have only you, a beloved baby. I don't want to let those stinky boys cheat you. If you find a boyfriend in the future, you must take him home and let me see first. So, you have to be wise up."

Emma didn’t know why Sean popped into her mind when she thought of who could spend the rest time with her.
