Chapter 399 Happiness ( Part Two)
Looking at all the people around her, Mary chose to ignore him. However, she couldn't help but feel awkward. Her face turned red with anger when he kept trying to move closer. She was worried that if she reacted badly to him, it might make other parents think that her kids had an uncivilized parent.
Meanwhile, William had calmed Babe and rushed to the school. The moment he walked into the classroom, he saw a man getting too close to his wife. "Damn it!" he cursed to himself under his breath.
"Mr. Huang, the conference is about to begin. You'd better get back to your seat now.” Mary said politely. Mr. Huang's expression darkened, sending a chill down her spine. "Let go of my wife's hand! It's been a while, Mr. Huang." William said with a fake smile as he pulled up Mary from her chair.
Mr. Huang immediately stood up and smiled awkwardly. "Oh, I am so sorry. I didn't see you there, Mr. Lan! I was just having a friendly conversation with Manager Lu."
"Please take your seats, the meeting will begin shortly,” the teacher announced. Still holding Mary in his arms, William pulled up Elissa’s chair and sat next to Mary.
Mary pushed him and said, "Go to the front row, Elissa's seat is over there! The teacher is watching us." "No, I won't. Let me rub your palm, it's become red from his grip,” William said, proudly holding her hand
Mary immediately pulled her hand away and hissed, "We are at the school, you need to pay attention. Don't get a bad name because of this.”
"If I cared about my image, then some guy will take advantage of my wife. I can’t let that happen, so from now on, you're staying with me at all times. okay?" he said in a serious tone.
Mary almost felt like rolling her eyes at him, but she refrained herself.
At the same time, Selah had just arrived at the play-area along with Ray, Elissa, and Alick. As soon as some of the boys spotted Elissa, they immediately ran up to her.
"Elissa, how about you come and play with me?" one boy asked. "My dad just got me a new toy. Why don't you come and play with me instead?" another boy asked. "Did you like the candy that I gave you the last time we met, Elissa?" a third boy asked.
Seeing this, Selah was worried. Her son had so many competitors at such a young age. Thinking of that. she felt like she had to step in as his mother and speak up for him. Clenching her fists, she was about to chase them away, but then she saw that Ray was a step ahead of her.
Holding Elissa’s hand, he announced, "She won't go with any of you."
Stunned, Elissa couldn't help but ask, "But why, Ray?”
The other boys were also just as shocked and confused as her.
Ray blushed as he said, "When I grow up, I want to marry you, Elissa. If you play with the other boys, then it will make me jealous.” Standing behind them, Selah covered her mouth in shock and laughed. 'How come I've never noticed this side of Ray?’ she wondered "But Ray...we're brother and sister, right? We can't get married!" Elissa said firmly.
Alick sighed and said, "Ray isn't your brother, Elissa, I am. It's all right for you to marry him."Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"Really?" Elissa asked, scratching her head with a puzzled look.
“That's right. can even prove it to you!" Ray said quickly. He then stepped closer to her and gently. kissed heron the lips. Since he was just a child and didn't know howto kiss tye simply pressed his lips” agaist hers for an instant..then, he opened his eyes and they-both gazed at each other.
"Oh, my god!" Selah exclaimed as she quickly took out her phone and clicked a picture of her son’s cute and innocent expression of love
On their way home, she showed the picture to everyone. Although everyone was pleased by it, William pulled a long face. He knew that Ray was a good boy, yet he couldn't digest the fact that he was in love with his young daughter. Moreover, Ray had stolen her first kiss.
Sitting next to him, Mary had already sensed his displeasure. "Are you angry? Don't you like Ray?” she asked. "I'm just worried if Alick would be able to find a girl at all!“ William replied
Mary raised her eyebrows at him and asked, “Why? Do you think that he is not as charming? You know what? I found a love letter under his desk Some girl wants to marry him!"
Upon hearing that, William instantly brightened up. "Really? Great job, Alick,” he exclaimed
"Moreover, their summer vacation starts tomorrow. Why don't we take Alick and Elissa somewhere for their holidays? We can also ask Selah, Barry, Victor and Ena to join us," Mary added.
"Now that you mention it, Archer called me earlier and told me that he was renting a resort. We can all go there and spend some good family time!" William said.
Mary's eyes lit up. "Have they returned yet? What about Lucas? Is he here, too?” she asked.
"Obviously, they all came back together,” he replied.

Once they were all settled, the adults drank and barbequed while the kids played nearby. "This is such a beautiful resort. Isn't it, William?” Mary asked with a smile as she took in the beautiful beach view.
“It's not bad at all," William agreed with a smile. Aisha walked over to them, holding her blond-haired son. "Of course it is amazing, Archer selected the place after giving it a lot of thought.” she said.
"I know, right! Isn't it the best?" Jazlyn asked as she approached them.
"Why didn't he buy this place?” Selah asked with a smile.
"Yeah, if he bought this place, then we could all live here like one big family!" Ena exclaimed. "That is a great idea!
