Come on Daddy!

Chapter 79 You Are Not Afraid of Being Widowed, so What Am I Afraid of

Rose waved to Doris. “Come here Doris, and don't always pester uncle. Uncle is very busy and has a lot of important work to do. Let’s not make him stay too long.”

Rose clearly wanted to kick Bright out of the Linder’s house.

The light in Doris’ big beautiful eyes dimmed down. She wanted to play with handsome uncle. He made her feel as if she was being loved by her father.

But she was afraid that her mother would be sad, so she dared not make it too obvious that she wanted a father. Sigh...so difficult.

“Even though uncle is busy, I have some time to spend with you. Besides, it's off work now. No matter how busy uncle is, he still needs to rest, eat and sleep. Don't you think so?” Bright easily handled Rose’s intention to kick him out and looked at her. “Miss Linder, because of you and Doris today, I haven't eaten yet. I’m hungry. Didn’t you want to thank me? Why don’t you reward me by cooking a meal?”

“CEO Lee hasn't eaten yet?” Chandler checked the time and saw it was already eight o'clock.

“Yeah.” Bright nodded with a chuckle.

“Rose, go to the kitchen and cook some food for CEO Lee.” Chandler instructed Rose. If the Lee family knew that Bright was hungry while he was at the Linder’s place, then there would be no hope for cooperation in the future. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? How could you neglect such a guest as important as CEO Lee?”

“CEO Lee is so busy. How do I know that he didn’t have time to eat?” Rose defended herself.

In fact, she just doesn't want him to eat here at all.

But he wanted to stay here again. How annoying.

“Rose, since Bright helped you and Doris, and we are not stingy people, we should prepare a meal for Bright. You go to the kitchen to prepare some food. Have Elena help you.” Jennifer also stood on Bright's side this time.

“Oh.” Rose had no choice but to go to the kitchen. Right before she turned around, she stared at Bright, the “culprit”.

Bright raised his eyebrows slightly and curled up his beautiful thin lips to form a faint smile. His eyes were full of triumphant happiness.

He seemed to be saying that he was justified in eating this meal.

The only ones left in the living room were Bright, who played with Doris, Jennifer, and Chandler.

“Bright, is your grandma’s health okay?” Jennifer and grandma Lee met by accident. They were both in Switzerland due to poor health and met while recuperating. They got along well with each other and soon became friends who kept no secrets from each other.

It could be seen from the fact that grandma Lee asked Bright bring birthday wishes to Jennifer that their relationship was good.

“Very good.” Bright said.

“The news said that you are already married. Where is your wife from? Your grandma told me that you are quite old, yet you are still single. I didn’t expect that you have been married for three years. Now your grandma can rest assured.” Jennifer also wanted to confirm.

“Yes, I’m married. She is from City H.” Bright answered patiently.

“It seems that Bright is tied to City H by fate.” Jennifer said with a smile.

She watched Bright play with Doris patiently. The two interacted very lovingly and looked like father and daughter. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Jennifer shook her head twice as she watched, feeling deeply moved.

If Bright hadn’t been married, he would be a perfect match for Rose in terms of his character and accomplishment. And since he truly liked Doris, he would be a very good father.

It was just a pity that they weren’t fated. He was already married and already belonged to someone.

“Grandma Linder, I’ll introduce her to you once I have the chance. I promise that you will like her very much.” There was a hint of joy in Bright's voice. It seemed that he was very satisfied with his wife.

“I think your grandma would like to see her granddaughter-in-law more.” Jennifer was relieved for her friend. “I am worried about Rose now. She raised a child up by herself and suffered through hardships all these years. I just want her to have a good home and a good man who will take care of her for me. I won’t have any regrets then when I pass away.”

“Mom, CEO Lee is here. Why are you saying these discouraging things...” Chandler frowned.

“Why can't I say it? I didn't treat Bright as an outsider.” In Jennifer’s eyes, Bright was the same as her grandson. “Bright, you know a lot of people, more than an old lady like me. If you have friends or classmates who are suitable, please introduce them to Rose. We are not asking for a lot. As long as they have good character and treat others well, it is enough.”

“Grandma...” As soon as Rose came out of the kitchen, she heard her grandma selling herself, making her seem like she wasn’t wanted. Sigh, grandma wasn’t even worried that Bright would laugh.

Besides, Bright was her hidden husband. Asking her husband to find men in front of him...this was too embarrassing.

Bright's handsome face was calm. “Grandma, I will pay attention.”

Pay attention?

Rose really wanted to laugh. Since when was he responsible for finding her next husband to get married to after their divorce? How kind-hearted of him. Perhaps he should be rewarded with the title of the best ex-husband of China?

“Thank you, Bright.”

“Let’s not bother CEO Lee with this kind of thing.”

Jennifer and Rose spoke at the same time but said totally different things.

Jennifer stretched out her hand to pull Rose's sleeve, frowning and hinting that she should not talk nonsense.

Rose was very dissatisfied, and of course it was aimed at Bright.

He knew everything, yet he still wanted to stir up trouble. How hateful.

“Bright, this girl talks this way. Don’t take it to heart.” Jennifer explained, afraid that Bright would really not help out. She pushed Rose again. “Why did you come out when you were cooking in the kitchen?”

“The meal is ready, please head to the dining room to eat.”

Rose turned around after speaking. She didn’t stay in the living room to be an eyesore.

“Uncle is going to eat.” Bright stretched out his hand and stroked the top of Doris’ head. “Be good and play by yourself for a while.”

“Okay, eat lots, handsome uncle so you can have the strength to play with me.” Doris made a cheering gesture.

Bright could not help but laugh and went to the dining room.

The only people in the huge dining room were Bright and Rose.

There were three courses and one soup on the table, enough for two people.

“You cooked it all?” Bright unbuttoned his suit and sat down gracefully.

Rose scooped a bowl of rice and placed it in front of him while grinning. “Yes, don't eat it if you are afraid.”

“Could it be possible to kill me?” Bright joked as he looked at the delicious courses.

“That's hard to say.” Rose lowered her voice and smile crookedly. “Be careful that the food is poisonous.”

“You are not afraid of being widowed, so what am I afraid of?” Bright leisurely held up the bowl and used a pair of chopsticks to pick up some shredded beef with celery. He then placed the food in his mouth and started eating while smiling calmly with satisfaction.

But this made Rose very uncomfortable. “Do you think I will be a widow for you? Don't joke, I am still young. How can I be afraid of not being able to get married?”

“Why don’t you try?” Bright narrowed his eyes slightly while his gaze became sharp.

### Chapter 80 He Is Not Satisfied with this Title

Rose served herself a bowl of soup first and was not afraid of him at all. “You are still alive and well, and it won’t be too late to try once that happens.”

She smiled as she talked, then drank the soup in a particularly happy mood. Satisfaction was painted all over her face.

“Wow, this soup is delicious.”

Bright put his soup bowl in front of Rose and raised an eyebrow slightly. “Give me a bowl too.”

“Don't you have any hands? I'm not a servant in your family. Scoop for yourself if you want to have it.” Rose ignored him and continued to drink her soup.

“You’re not going to do it? Then I'll go find grandma and your dad right now and get their opinions on whether Mrs. Lee should take good care of Mr. Lee.” Bright hinted that he was going to expose their relationship as husband and wife in order to threaten her.

Rose's face grew sullen and stared at the man in front of her. “Mr. Lee, you are not a man if you did something like this!”

“Won’t you know if I’m a man once you try. Anyway, we are legal.” Bright's eyes were deep and unfathomable like an abyss, making her wonder whether he was joking or serious.

“Cough, cough, cough...” Rose was so scared by his words that she choked herself and couldn’t stop coughing.

Seeing this, Bright put down his chopsticks, walked around the table to her side, raised his hand and patted her back, hoping to make her feel better.

“Drink some water.” The man's warm voice was stained with a smile. Because of Rose, Bright sounded helpless, as if he didn’t know what to do. “How could you be so careless when you are only having

soup?”

“Well. If it wasn’t for you….!” If he didn't talk nonsense, could she be frightened?

Obviously, it was his fault. How could he scold her?

“Everything I said was the truth.” Bright bent down and stared at her eyes. “Since you are going to poison me, then shouldn’t I do something to you before you poison me to death? No matter what, I need to make sure that you have my offspring.”

This was the Bright she was familiar with, someone who pretended to be cold but was a bad man all over.

Rose felt that she had brought doom to herself.

Bright’s thin lips curled up unnoticeably, fully revealing his evil charm. “This is exactly why it’s worth dying under a beautiful woman. Why doesn’t Mrs. Lee give Mr. Lee the chance?”

Rose was moved when she heard Bright call her “Mrs. Lee”, and her face and ears turned red. His voice was too crisp and sultry – it was music to her ears, so much it was going to kill her!

“Mr. Lee, it is clearly stated in the contract that we do not fulfill obligations between husband and wife. Buy one get one free is impossible. Please respect the contract.” Rose endured the heat in her ears and mentioned the contract, hoping to stop this man from thinking and behaving absurdly.

“I’m almost dead. Why would I still care about those things?” Bright scoffed.

“…” She couldn’t win over him, so she decided to just shut him up.

Rose put the soup in front of him.

Seeing that she had eased a little, Bright returned to his seat, then held up the soup bowl and drank slowly, savouring every bit of it.

Rose didn't look at him anymore and lowered her head to eat her own meal.

“This soup...” Bright's expression suddenly changed. He grabbed his heart with one hand. “It’s poisonous…”

Rose saw his frowning eyebrows, heavy breathing, and pale face that her face also turned pale. She hurriedly kicked away the chair and headed to his side.

“What's wrong with you, Bright...I didn't make this soup...” Rose didn’t know what to do for a moment when she saw how uncomfortable he was. “Don't scare me...how could it be poisonous...”

“Bright...” Rose almost cried as she called his name. “I'll call the doctor—”

Rose was about to turn around to head to the living room when she felt her hand being grabbed and pulled by someone before she fell onto the man's lap and he embraced her.

Rose was once again frightened by Bright's bold behaviour.

The most important thing was that he lied to her? But she believed him like a fool, and almost cried because of it.

But he was making fun of her!

How terrible!

She was embarrassed and wanted to struggle to get up but was locked in place by his arms.

“You let me go!” Rose lowered her voice.

She looked at the door of the dining room in a panic, fearing that someone would come in and see her. By then, no matter how much she explained, she wouldn’t be able to clear things up.

“Do you how cute you looked just now when you were worried about me?” Bright didn't care about the intimacy between them.

“Can't you just eat properly?” Rose couldn't win against his strength at all and could only let him trap her.

“When someone comes in and sees, you just need to admit that you are Mrs. Lee. I will definitely cooperate and won’t let you be known as the mistress.” Bright put his chin on her soft shoulder lightly. “If anyone dares to bully you, I will be the first to help you.”

Getting bullied by others?

He is the only one who has been bullying her, right?

“As long as Mr. Lee let me go.” Rose's back was against his warm chest, but it was stiff.

“What if I don't let go?” Heat from Bright's lips and nose sprayed on her face, prickling her, making her restless and nervous.

Rose swallowed, but she was helpless.

“Are you calling your family or the police?” Bright smiled triumphantly.

She naturally didn't want her family to know, and the police didn't care about matters between husband and wife.

“Mr. Lee...” Rose said softly.

“Silent...” Bright put his finger on her soft lips. “I am very dissatisfied with being addressed as Mr. Lee.”

“...” Rose widened her eyes.

Didn’t she always call him that? Why are you not satisfied today? What is wrong?

“CEO Lee?”

He shook his head.

“Bright.”

He still shook his head.

“Young master Lee...”

He continued to shake his head.

“Lee...”

She really couldn't think of anything.

“Are you doing this on purpose?” Rose wondered whether he was purposely giving her a difficult problem.

She tilted her head and met his eyes. Her eyes were clear and reflected his handsome face.

Bright suddenly lowered his head, and his thin lips caught her cherry lips. He kissed her deeply...

It was just a moment, but it still made her feel the strong emotions like a storm, and it made her gradually lost.

“We are husband and wife. You don't want to be honest in front of others. I can cooperate with you, but you have to cooperate with me when it’s just us.” Bright’s fingers brushed her red lips. “So you should

know what to call me.”

Aren’t they just a fake couple? Why is he making things difficult for her?

“Can't say it?” Bright saw her reluctance.

“Mr. Lee—”

“Then I will kiss you until you can!” What a domineering pig!
