“Master, I will,” Chloe replied. Joseph nodded and said, “Chloe is both a father and a mother. It’s inevitable that she won’t be able to take good care of Aubrey at times. There will also be times when things get really tough. Jonathan, now that you’ve returned to the country and are staying for a long time, help take care of Aubrey when you’re free. Anna, you too!” “Yes, master,” Annalise and Jonathan replied. “At my age, I don’t want anything more. I just hope the two of you to be good to each other.”
“We’re gonna be good to each other.” “Come, come, come, let’s eat!” Joseph’s expression changed and he instantly became a foodie. Immediately after, Annalise, Chloe, and Jonathan fed more food to him. Joseph said in disdain, “You guys just eat on your own. Now that my plate’s all filled up. Where should I start?” “Haha, master. Just eat already,” Jonathan joked. Joseph glared at Jonathan.
Chloe and Annalise could not help but laugh. Aubrey covered her mouth and giggled. Julian looked at this scene and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. He liked this relaxed and happy atmosphere. He looked forward to having many children with Annalise in the future. When they were old and the children returned home to reunite, he figured that this would probably be the scene. Chloe’s phone suddenly rang. She hung up nervously, smiled, and quickly ate.
After a while, her phone rang again. She quickly hung up and turned it off. Jonathan was surprised. “What’s going on? You owe someone money?” Chloe smiled unnaturally. “No, no.” “Mm, it’s good that you’re not. Let me know if you do owe someone money,” Jonathan said. “Yes, yes. John, don’t worry. I have money.” “Mom, is it dad? He said he’s coming to get me to the amusement park today.” The five- year-old Aubrey’s clear and bright eyes were filled with anticipation.
Upon hearing that, Joseph, Annalise, and Jonathan looked at Chloe in unison. Chloe felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at like that. She bit her lip and explained, “I… I just thought that if he wanted to accompany Aubrey, there was no reason to not let him. After all, she’s his daughter. Master, don’t worry. There will definitely not be anything else between him and me.” Joseph said, “Let’s eat
then.” This matter could not be said in front of Aubrey. Although the child was young, she was sensitive. “Yes, sure,” Chloe replied. Everyone ate. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Annalise saw that Chloe still looked a little uncomfortable, so she silently filled Chloe’s plate. After dinner, Joseph asked Helena to take care of Aubrey. He called Jonathan, Annalise, and Chloe to the backyard. In the backyard, Joseph asked Chloe very sternly, “What are you thinking?” “Master, I-I definitely won’t have anything to do with him. I just feel that Aubrey is a little pitiful. No matter what, he’s still Aubrey’s father. If he still wants to accompany Aubrey, I see no reason to not let him,” Chloe explained. “You really think so?” Joseph asked.
“Well, that’s what I really thought.” “When did you contact him?” Joseph asked again. Chloe bit her lower lip. “It. It was last month.” Actually, on Valentine’s Day, the scumbag suddenly added her. At that time, Chloe did not know that he was Ryan Ryan sent her a happy holiday message to her. She ignored Ryan. After that, the scumbag sent her good morning, good afternoon, and good night messages every day. She did not respond for two months.
She suspected the man might be a salesman looking to sell something. After all, in this day and age, the only person who could persevere in greeting people good morning. afternoon, and good night was definitely a salesperson. However, when Chloe clicked on his homepage, she did not see any posts. Until one day, she suddenly saw that the scumbag had updated his post. The post was actually a photo of her carrying her child. At the time, she was terrified. She had the fear of being targeted by a stalker.
She immediately questioned him about who he was and why he had her photo. If she couldn’t tell him, she would immediately call the police. Only then did the scumbag reveal his identity and say that he was Ryan Taylor. He said that he had no ill intentions. He just happened to see her and her daughter on the street that day, so he took a photo and stored it in his phone. If he missed his daughter, he would take a look. She was furious. “What right did he have to look at his daughter? Wasn’t he going to abort her?” She thought. Ryan apologized to her, saying that he was a fool back then.
She then questioned Ryan about where he got her Whatsapp number. Ryan replied saying that where there was a will, there was a way. She thought about it and agreed. Now that information was so advanced and she was in charge of sales at the pharmaceutical company, her phone number was publicized. It was normal to find her Whatsapp account She warned Ryan not to approach her daughter. Ryan said that he would respect her wishes.
In the following days, Ryan did keep his word and did not harass her. It was only on the seventh of last month that Ryan suddenly appeared at the entrance of the pharmaceutical company with flowers in his hands, saying that it was the day they met. She didn’t know if it was because she had been lonely for too long, or if she had forgotten the pain of breakup after so long. Hearing him say that it was the day they met, she was suddenly very touched. However, she glanced at him indifferently and left.
On the 23rd of last month, after she had her meal, someone forcefully stopped her, asking for her Whatsapp number, going so far as to want to grope her. She was about to make a move when Ryan and two friends happened to go to the restaurant Ryan immediately rushed up and fought with that person. In the end, that man was punched in the nose and bled a lot. From that day on, she agreed to Ryan’s request to see her daughter. But, he had to respect her wishes. During the weekends for the past two weeks, Ryan would accompany his daughter to the amusement park.
Seeing her daughter’s happiness and anticipation, she did not stop them. “Have you forgotten how he treated you back then?” Joseph was very strict. “Master, I didn’t,” Chloe said sadly. There was no way she would forget. She met Ryan when she was 24 years old. After being in love for a few months, she thought she had found a lifemate. Ryan excitedly brought her to take wedding photos and meet her parents to prepare for their wedding. She then had a physical relationship with him.
After she got pregnant, she was in a hurry to get married. Ryan was also very happy. He looked like he was looking forward to the child. However, he did not mention marriage again. She could not help but urge him. Ryan said that he would be on a business trip for half a year. He said that he was in a hurry
to go on a business trip and would get married after half a year She had waited for half a year, and her belly was already bulging.
At that time, Joseph had already asked her to stop working, to return to the village. She was very stubborn and insisted on waiting for Ryan at Jadeborough. Coincidentally, the pharmaceutical company gave her a huge sum of money. She was thinking about getting married and having a child soon. She wanted to see a bigger house. It would be best if it had a front and back yard. It would be more convenient for the child to move around in the future. She followed the agent to look for her dream house. That day, they were looking at a villa area.
After looking at the house, she saw a man hugging a woman and kissing her passionately. At first, she felt that these people did not care about where they were. Later on, she thought that it might be because the man couldn’t control himself when he was in love. When she took another look, she felt that the man looked very much like Ryan, who was on a business trip. Suddenly, the man turned around. The man was indeed Ryan. When she saw Ryan, she was filled with anger and felt her stomach tighten.
