Bright said affirmatively.
Both Nora and Rose felt that he was making a promise to her sincerely.
Rose took up a piece of French fries and then ate it. But she didn't taste it because she was thinking
about his words.
"Miss Nora, this is the nutritious meal for children you want." A person wearing work clothes from
another restaurant came up and put the children's meal on the table.
"Why do you take it to me after such a long time?" Nora checked the time and found that it had been 10
minutes since she ordered the meal, "Why don't you take it to me on time?"
"I am so sorry. We are too busy in our restaurant now... I have tried my best to take it to you on time."
The worker felt sorry and lowered his head, and his hands clasped together because he was too
nervous.
Nora massaged her temples with her fingers and said, "If you don't have enough labor force, please
employ more workers. OK?"
"Please calm down, Nora. He's only two minutes late." Rose said to Nora, "They have worked very
hard."
Nora didn't say anything.
Rose looked up to the worker and said, "You can go first. Don't worry."
"Thank you." The worker was very appreciative and then he left quickly.
"Why do you blame him? You wouldn't behave like this before." Rose thought that Nora shouldn't have
been mad at the worker.
Nora had enjoyed a very good life since she was a child, but she was never so mean to anybody. She
was always principled.
"I just worry that Doris will be hungry." Nora looked in the direction where the toilet was located and
found that Doris was playing in the corner of the children's playground, "I will go there and ask Doris to
come back for the meal."
Nora stood up and left.
As soon as she left, Rose took a deep breath and then said to Bright, "Mr. Bright, I won't ask you to
hold a wedding for me."
"Nobody can know what will happen in the future. Neither you nor me can change our situation." Bright
certainly knew what she was thinking about, so he said, "But we can look forward to our wedding. You
will feel better if you live with expectations."
"However, when it doesn't meet your expectations, you will feel sad." Her long eyelashes covered her
clear eyes; she said calmly, but it sounded a bit sad.
Once, she expected that she could be together with Sky forever and became his bride one day.
Finally, it didn't meet her expectations.
From then on, she didn't look forward to the future anymore. She just wanted to cherish every single
day.
"You really got hurt because of him, so you can't let it go until now." Bright looked cool when he
mentioned Sky.
"It's none of your business." She tried not to show her emotions.
"You are my wife, so it certainly has something to do with me." Bright laughed lightly, "Does he know
that Doris is his daughter?"
"She is my daughter." Rose looked up to somewhere and said.
"You are my wife, so I am her step-father. She's also my daughter." Legally, he was her husband. So he
thought that he was Doris' father.
Rose looked at his handsome face when she heard what he said.
"I will try my best to love her and regard her as my own daughter." Bright also looked at her and said to
her.
When Rose wanted to say something again, Nora came back with Doris.
"Are you hungry? Enjoy your food, please." Nora took the meal for children to Doris with tenderness.
She didn't have a kid, so she thought that Doris was also her kid because Rose was her bosom friend.
After Doris finished eating, Rose said goodbye to Nora and then Bright drove Rose and Doris home.
When they arrived, Rose got out of the car and said to Bright, "Thank you."
"You don't need to say thanks to me." Bright looked at her in the car, "Whenever you need help, please
let me know immediately. I will try my best to help you."
"Well, it's cold outside. Go back home with Doris."
Rose hesitated for a while and then asked, "Are you going to go back to City J now?"
"Yes."
"Bye bye, handsome uncle." Doris shook her hands and said to Bright.
"See you." Bright closed the window of the car and said to the driver, "Let's go to the airport."
Rose watched them drive away in the black car and then went back home with Doris.
There were only several wall lamps in the living room, which made her feel comfortable and warm.
Rose went upstairs with Doris and then they took a bath and went to bed.
After Doris fell asleep, Rose took up her phone and texted Nora, [Nora, actually, almost no one knows
that I have got married to Bright. Could you please keep the secret for me?]
Nora was playing on the phone with a facial mask on her face, so she read the message quickly and
then texted Rose back.
[You don't do anything wrong. Why do you think it is a secret? Does Bright ask you to do it? You should
tell me the truth.]
[He doesn't ask me to do that. I don't want anybody to know about it, because I want to live a peaceful
life. I don't want to be overly concerned by others because I am his wife.]
[Do you really think so?]
[Certainly. Otherwise, what can I do?]
[Rose, since you have got married to Bright, you shouldn't think too much. Although I don't know why
you would be together with him, I can see that he really cares about you. I think you should cherish
him.]
Did he care about her? Did she need to cherish him?
[It's late. Good night.]
Rose replied to her like that and then turned off the lamp and went to sleep.
The next day, after Rose walked Doris to school and then went to work, Sophie came back to the
Linder family.
"Mom, what's wrong? Why did you call me to come back home?" Sophie dressed up very beautifully,
with long hair and pretty earrings.
Joy got close to her and whispered, "Let's talk about it upstairs."
And then they went upstairs and went into the bedroom and then closed the door.
"Mom, what happened? Why are you so nervous?" Sophie sat down on the sofa elegantly, "Could it be
that Rose agreed to marry Timothy?"
Joy felt upset when she heard what Sophie said, "I don't think Timothy dare to marry her anymore."
"Why?" Sophie was surprised.
"And you shouldn't have any conflicts with Rose in the future, at least you shouldn't offend her during
this period." Joy told her.
"Why? Mom, we all agreed to let her get out of our Linder family, so we should continue to implement
our plan." Sophie became anxious, "What happened on earth?"
"Someone gives her support, so she dares to come back to our Linder family this time." Joy felt bad
when she thought that Bright supported Rose, "And our Linder family or the Tanner family cannot
offend the one who supports her."
"Who gives her support?" Sophie asked.
Joy shook her head with hesitation.
Bright had told them clearly that they couldn't tell anybody the relationship between Rose and him.
"Mom, please tell me." Sophie was much more anxious because Joy didn't tell her about it, and she
wanted to know more about it, "I am your daughter, and we have the same goal."
"I can tell you, but you must keep the secret, otherwise, you should be responsible for it. And you
should know that if you tell anyone about it, our Linder family and Tanner family will be over." Joy told
her seriously.
Sophie frowned and she was curious about who would support Rose. Was he really more powerful
than the Linder family and Tanner family? Why could he make her mother so scared?
"Mom, I promise I will keep the secret." Sophie swore.
"Well, I trust you." Joy held her right hand and said, "He is Mr. Bright, Bright Lee from City J."
"What?" Sophie really felt shocked after hearing about that.
She sat on the sofa and felt that it was unbelievable.
"Mom, I heard that Bright announced that he had been married not long ago. So, Rose is his wife?"
Sophie held Joy's hands more tightly, "Why? Why can she become his wife?"
Joy patted her hands to comfort her, "She isn't his wife, but she is his lover."
"You mean she is his mistress?" Sophie wasn't so angry and she sneered, "Mom, we don't need to be
scared."
"But Mr. Bright loves her so much now. Otherwise, yesterday he wouldn't fly over from City J to help
her." Joy thought that they shouldn't offend her now, otherwise, Bright would be mad at them.
"Mom, she isn't his wife, and she is just his mistress. I never thought that she would be a mistress one
day. She is so cheap, and I don't think Mr. Bright will like her forever. When Mr. Bright doesn't like her
anymore, we can make her go to die." Sophie thought that they shouldn't allow her to live a good life.
"However, we don't know when Mr. Bright will not like her anymore. So we shouldn't offend her now.
You should know that Mr. Bright can make our family over with his strength." Joy reminded Sophie
once again.
"Mom, I don't think Mr. Bright knew about her child. Otherwise, he wouldn't like her." Sophie said.
"Mr. Bright knows that she has a child, and he likes Doris very much." Joy didn't understand why he
loved Rose so much.
Sophie felt hopeless. If she knew that Bright was attracted to women so easily, she would be more
likely to be with him than Rose.
"What's more, it's a good chance for us to get close to Mr. Bright. I think we should get this chance to
help your dad. Because with the support from Mr. Bright, it's easier for our Linder family to cooperate
with him and other companies." Joy emphasized the key point.
"Therefore, your dad asked me not to offend her now. On the contrary, we should make good use of
her surplus value until she is abandoned by Mr. Bright. Then you can do whatever you want to do. But
now you can't destroy your Dad's plan. Do you understand? This is also about the development of our
Linder family in the future."
"Mom, do you intend to abandon me?" Sophie felt a sense of crisis. Five years ago, Rose was
abandoned by them when she had an accident. So she didn't want to be abandoned by them like that,
"I am at least the Daughter-in-law of the Tanner family, but Rose is just a mistress of Mr. Bright."
"We don't intend to abandon you. How can she be compared with you? We just have to endure the
humiliation in order to get more benefits from her. I don't think she can live a good life for a long time,
because Mr. Bright will not be interested in her for so long. Don't worry, Sophie. You have to control
yourself, so that our plan can be implemented smoothly." Joy held her hands tightly, "Only when our
Linder family has unlimited honor, can you be a queen in the Tanner family. And no one dares to bully
you anymore. Now, I have told you everything. If you break your dad's plan, I can't protect you."
Chandler usually asked Joy for advice in their daily life, but he was in charge of their company.
They could be regarded as a typical couple in China. Joy took the responsibilities to their family, and
Chandler took the responsibilities to work.
Sophie gritted her teeth, now she could only bear it. Because no one thought that Rose would seduce
Bright, which was unexpected.
"Mom, I know what I should do. Don't worry."
"That's good. I will always support you." Joy was relieved because Sophie promised her. And she said
again, "You should prepare for pregnancy during this period, because the most important thing for you
now is to give birth to a child for Sky. Do you understand?"
"Yes. Sky also promised me to go to the hospital for a physical examination, and we will listen to the
advice of doctors." Sophie certainly wanted to give birth to a child for Sky. And she felt better when she
thought about it.
"OK." Joy nodded and said, "When you give birth to a child, I think Bright will not like Rose anymore at
that time. And then you will become the number one hero in the Tanner family." They talked with each
other for a while, and then Sophie was going to leave.
"Mom, I will go to the hospital with Sky for a physical examination this afternoon, so I will go to the
company to have lunch with him at noon. I have to go now."
"OK."
After leaving the Linder family, Sophie felt angry all the time. Because she didn't expect that Rose
would come back to the Linder family with a despicable method, which really made her mad.
She couldn't allow Rose to hurt herself with the support from Bright, otherwise, she would be
abandoned by their parents sooner or later, just like what they did to Rose once.
Therefore, she must try to cause her to lose both fortune and honor.
She was thinking about how to do it. However, she felt anxious and she didn't know what to do at all.
At this time, her cell phone rang again. She took out her mobile phone and saw that it was an
unfamiliar telephone number, so she hung up.
However, the phone kept ringing though she hung up one more time.
Finally, there was a message texted from this telephone number, [Sophie, I am Timothy. It doesn't
matter if you don't want to answer my call. I would like to call your husband and talk with him about
your skills of making love with me.]
When she saw the name of Timothy, she thought about what happened between her and Timothy,
which was a nightmare for her.
So she quickly called him, but it showed from the voice prompt that he was talking on the phone. She
was very anxious and then she kept calling him. He didn't answer her call until she called him ten
times.
"Timothy, what do you want to do?" Sophie asked him coldly.
"I think you should know what I am going to do." Timothy laughed loudly on the phone, "You are so..."
And then he laughed more loudly before he finished talking.
