Chapter 75 How Long Have You Been Together
Bright was glanced at by Rose, but he remained calm. He wasn’t afraid of her tattle telling anyway.
He was happy about her frankly telling the Linder family's grandmother about their relationship because then he would be able to easily become a part of their family.
He would be joining them the proper way, and no one would be able to stop him.
“Nothing, grandma, I'll hang up first. See you later.” Rose hurriedly ended the call and gave Bright a look.
“Why didn’t you tell grandma that you are with me.” Bright raised his handsome eyebrows, and his gaze was heavy, as if luring people into committing sins…
“Why tell?” Rose asked a question in reply.
He had long known that she was his contract wife, yet why did he not make it clear to her?
In that case, she won't get involved with him, let alone develop any feeling for him.
But now that she knew all of this meant that she must face their relationship objectively and calmly, including their contractual relationship, transactional marriage, and agreement to divorce after three years.
And it won’t be long until they went through the divorce process.
This was only a marriage in name. She would restrain herself until divorce.
“It doesn't matter. We’ll still have opportunities to meet.” Bright’s enthusiasm didn’t dampen. “Everything will be understood once our parents meet.”
Rose suddenly forgot about this matter.
True, Bright's initiative to show her the marriage certificate was nothing more than to let her feel that she was his proper wife. This way she won't be bothered because she was the fake Mrs. Lee, so much that she was unwilling to play the role anymore and unwilling to dine with their parents.
Now, he took out the marriage certificate so that she had no reason to refuse.
“Mr. Lee, I think you know the terms of the contract. Anyway, it's just a transaction. Why make it so complicated? How is it going to end?” She spoke vaguely, indicating that their marriage contract was about to expire and there was no need to make things so difficult.
“How to end it in the future is my business. Mrs. Lee doesn’t have to worry too much and just needs to leave everything to me. It is stated in the contract that Mrs. Lee needs to cooperate with Mr. Lee on some important occasions, such as cocktail parties or dinners.” Bright also pointed out what the contract stated, completely “convincing” Rose.
Rose was indeed unable to refute and could only change the subject. “Now is not the time to talk about this matter. Now I am going to pick up Doris, otherwise my grandma will get angry.”
Rose turned around to leave. Bright looked at her back. “I have already paid for this meal.”
“Mr. Lee doesn't care about a little bit of money like this.” Rose did not turn her head back.
Bright laughed and shook his head, and finally had no choice but to chase after her in strides.
Just after Rose walked out of the courtyard, Bright had already caught up with her, and grabbed her hand. “Come with me.”
He took her out of there and got in a Maserati.
Bright personally drove out. “Address.”
“?” Rose didn't realize for a moment that it was Nora’s address. “Oh, in Broad City.”
Bright turned on the GPS and followed what the voice announced
His driving skills were very good that passengers felt stable even at fast speeds.
Soon after arriving at Broad City, Rose unfastened her seat belt. “You wait for me here. I will go in by myself. Nora doesn't like strangers.”
She actually didn't want Bright to go in and be seen by Nora, otherwise she would question her nonstop. Besides, it was someone with status like Bright, so she wouldn’t stop for a few days.
She was really scared.
Bright did not speak or move.
Seeing that he seemed to have no objection, Rose got out of the car and entered along the stone path that was surrounded with bamboo.
Nora and Doris were playing outside, and they saw Rose walking in at a glance.
“Mom.” Doris put down the ball and ran towards Rose, jumping straight into her arms.
Rose held Doris, feeling that Doris missed herself, and deeply felt that she was not a good and competent mother.
“Mom is taking you home to see grandma. We will never be separated again.” Rose picked up Rose, choking slightly as she spoke.
“Mom, I had a good time at Aunt Nora’s place. Even God doesn’t have as much fun as I do.” Doris also felt Rose’s self-blame wanted to comfort her, but what she said was true.
Nora would definitely not treat her badly.
“Did you talk to grandma?” Nora walked over with the ball.
She wore casual sportswear, which was really rare.
Miss Cooper only ever wore traditional clothing and jewelry. She always dressed herself in attractive away. She never wore sports clothing because she said they were ugly.
She made a huge sacrifice to wear sportswear to play with Doris.
“Well, grandma wanted me to pick you up last night. She’s been pressing me a lot.” Rose felt grateful to her grandma. Only grandma could accept her, even though she had a child without getting married. Grandma still loved her and even loved Doris.
“Grandma is more open-minded than your parents.” Nora twitched her lips. “If they make things difficult for you, call me at any time. Your best friend has more than enough room for you and your daughter to live in.”
Grandma accepted Doris, but the Linder parents might not agree.
Grandma was getting old and couldn’t make every decision.
“Yeah.” Rose nodded.
“Everything is packed. I'll have someone bring it out for you.” Nora asked someone to bring Doris’ panda luggage. “I will take you out.”
“No, it’s fine. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll be laughed at if you went out in sportswear?” Rose looked at her red and white sportswear, using it as an excuse to stop Nora from going out.
She didn't want her to see Bright waiting outside.
“Okay, I'll let auntie send you off.” Nora thought about going out like this.
“No, it’s fine. I'll handle it.” This voice belonged to Bright, low and magnetic.
Nora had already looked over and saw Bright, who was tall and upright, pass through a cluster of green bamboo and steadily head over. Under shades of light and shadow, the man appeared handsome.
Rose's heart trembled fiercely. What she was the most afraid of just happened!
“Handsome uncle!” Doris’ eyes lit up after seeing Bright, and she struggled to get off Rose.
Doris ran to Bright like a happy Pomeranian and smiled brightly.
Bright bends down slightly and caught Doris as she rushed towards him, lifting her whole body up. Doris chuckled, and her crisp laughter was as melodious as a wind chime...
“Handsome uncle, why are you here?” Doris put her arms around Bright's neck habitually. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“I came to pick you up.” Bright hugged her with one arm, using his other hand to scratch her nose while he gazed at her lovingly.
Nora was dumbfounded and put one hand on Rose's shoulder. “When did you and CEO Lee get together?”
“…” Rose frowned. What about getting together? “Can you not make it sound so bad?”
“He and Doris are also this close? How long has this affair been going on between you guys?” Nora asked with a thoughtful expression. “Doris’ father isn’t him, right?”
