Her body stiffened and saw Bryan standing behind her when she turned.
Shirley stunned seeing her behind and she turned to remove the safety belt on Emma's body.
She got down the car carrying two children, each with one hand.
But she lost balance because of the weights on her hands and her body leaned forward.
She screamed in shock and both the children made an "Ah" sound too.
At that critical moment, Bryan took a huge step forward and have all three of them in his arms.
Both the children lean against Bryan's chest.
The children were snatched away from Shirley within seconds.
She raised her head abruptly and saw Bryan with the two children in his arms while his hands were holding on her shoulders. He said gently, "Be careful."
Shirley blushed. She stepped backwards and complaint, "You stood outside the door just now, I tripped because I wanted to avoid you. Didn't I ask you to wait for me at Splendour Manor? You should tidy yourself before I go there, look at the time now."
She raised her mobile and pointed at the time. It was already half-past nine, if it wasn't for the party, he had already in bed.
It was also the first time Mildred saw Shirley being impatient with a patient.
She stood aside and laughed out.
Shirley turned and stared at her, "What are you laughing at?"
"Both of you look like an old couple."
There was a sight of happiness on Bryan's face when he heard that.
Jordan gave a thumb up discreetly too.
But Shirley was annoyed, she realized that her tone just now was improper. She should have addressed him as Mr Moore and spoke to him as a doctor instead of complaining.
Now that everyone was staring at her, even her children gloated her situation, Shirley's face was as red as an apple.
She clenched her fists and said angrily, "What are you joking about? Give me back my children, it's their bedtime."
She went towards Bryan and put her hands on the waists of the children.
Mildred saw it and rushed over to take Emma and Jacob. The children were with her now, she swept a glance at Bryan and Jordan.
"Mr Moore is here to fetch you, you don't need to worry about the children, go get busy."
"I need to go get change."
"Let me get it for you then, you don't have to go in, wait here." Mildred interrupted and brought the children inside.
Not long after, Cameron brought a dress with him, Shirley complaint inwardly when she took over the dress.
What was so good about Bryan Moore that Mildred kept acting like a cupid?
"Get on," Bryan said from behind.
Shirley frowned and froze for a moment before getting into the car.
A soft and gentle music rhythm was played in the car.
Bryan kept his eyes shut and lean against the seat since he got on the car but the interaction between Kevin and Shirley tonight kept flashing in his mind. Even though Kevin claimed he took Shirley as a sister, but he got more information from Jacob.
