Come on Daddy!

Chapter 37 Are You Hiding From Me?

Bright got to his senses in time and caught her hand in the air, “What are you doing?”

“Let go of me!” Rose stared at him who knew nothing, the more she tried to break loose her hand the more his grip becomes and there’s no way to escape.

“Are you unwilling to come dine at my house? It’s unnecessary to hit me for that reason.” Bright thought she was angry about that.

“Mr. Lee, you’re married, it’s inappropriate to hold me like this, right?” Rose reminded him of his identity as a married man, “I don’t want to be your mistress.”

“You’re not a mistress.” Bright’s face was attentive and serious, “Definitely not.”

“Then Mr. Lee, do act accordingly with your identity, please.” Rose recalled him even kissed her twice without any regret and guilty.

“You’re angry that I’m married?” He asked.

“Mr. Lee, you think too much, your cheating not only hurts Mrs. Lee but also me. I never want to get involve with you other than for working purpose.” Rose only wished to hide far away but fate brought them together. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“Ms. Linder didn’t hide anything from me?” Bright walked a step forward, looking right into her face, taking every change on her face into his eyes.

A slight panic flashed in her eyes, she did hide her covenant marriage.

This covenant marriage would soon come to an end and there was no need to tell him now that it may cause unnecessary trouble, more importantly, the reason she hadn’t revealed it was that the contract has stated specifically that she had no right to reveal this marriage to others.

And that Doris……was in fact his own daughter.

Thinking of such, Rose’s face grew white and changed the subject, “Mr. Lee, it’s time to work.”

Rose tried once more to take back her hand and he loosed his grip too.

She turned around and walked in stride with Bright looking at her tall and slim figure, the coolness on his face restored.

It was only after the site visit and the discussion did Bright satisfy and waited for Rose to deliver the modified drawings back to him.

As soon as the work ended, Rose was getting ready to leave.

Bright didn’t stop her, “You may walk around in City J, tell Milan what you want to buy and I’ll pick you up for dinner at home after work.”

“Mr. Lee, I have a busy schedule, I’ll head for the airport and fly straight back to City Y.” Rose was cool and calm.

Plus, she hasn’t seen her daughter for two days and she missed her very much.

“Ms. Linder, I suggest you not to be so impulsive.” Bright blocked her way with a turn.

“Mr. Lee, it’s Mrs. Lee you should pick up for dinner at home, not me.” Rose frowned disapprovingly, “Mr. Lee, apart from work, let’s keep our distance, it’s better for everyone.”

Rose walked past him in a cool manner, Bright caught her waist without moving his body, “Rose, only you can help me with this.”

Rose took a deep breath to herself and felt the bitterness in her heart, “I’m so sorry, Mr. Lee, I can’t help you.”

“You saw what’s on the news, it’s taking a great impact. People now are all guessing who the woman is in that photo. If we don’t handle it in time and allow them dig deeper, there will be consequences, have you thought of that? They will dig up every piece of information on you. Or do you wish to be identified?” Only then did Bright turn around, fierceness showed in his eyes.

Rose’s face froze and she declared, “I just want a peaceful life.”

Nevertheless, what he said made sense, this was the first time a woman got in a rumor with Bright Lee, how honored and unfortunate she was at the same time. She didn’t want to be exposed but she couldn’t run away from the fate of being disrupted.

“It will depend on how well Ms. Linder cooperates.” Bright raised his eyebrow and spoke in a reasonable way.

“If I go with you, isn't that an indirect confirmation of the inappropriate relationship with you?” Rose’s eyes were clear as water and her lips bit slightly, “If Mrs. Lee learns about this, she will accuse me as your mistress which I will have no way to argue for myself.”

She couldn’t afford to bear the crime of breaking other people’s marriage and she certainly didn’t want her child to think that she was that kind of indecent woman.

“Rose, you have to trust me. As long as you come home for dinner with me, I’ll solve this problem perfectly.” Bright saw she began to soften up so he spoke in a gentler way.

“I…… can’t trust you.” Rose thought she couldn’t do it, at least not now.

Had he not asked her to drive him home, she couldn’t get into such trouble, it was indeed unexpected trouble.

“Even if I trust you, what about Mrs. Lee? What position you will put her? She is your wife.”

Was it no love in the rich family’s marriage? That they could hurt each other casually?

“Rose, as long as you trust me, I’ll handle everything.” Bright placed both his hands on her shoulder heavily, his clear eyes were seeming to melt her down, “Because today you’re Mrs. Lee. This is the best way.”

“Mr. Lee, are you kidding me?” A big joke.

She was Mrs. Lee, how was it possible?

“I’m not joking.” He puckered his lips, standing in front of her, his magnetic voice was spreading on top of her head, “No one has ever seen Mrs. Lee, including my father. If I say you are Ms. Lee, you will be. As long as I or the Lee family release such statement to satisfy the public’s curiosity, then there will be no one digging you up maliciously, and more so I can use my relations to stop it.”

“Then you can use your relations to solve it now. No need for me to pretend to be Mrs. Lee and accompany you to dine with your parents. It will only make things more complicated.” Rose slightly raised her head and met his eyes, “You can’t fake the real and the real can’t be fake. Mrs. Lee will meet your parents eventually.”

“Your concern is unnecessary.” Bright was certain and sincere, “If you think this is unfair to you, then I’ll owe you one and you can ask for my favor anytime in the future. I, Bright Lee, will make it happen no matter what.”

“Mr. Lee is indeed a businessman who can trade anything.” Rose’s lips parted slowly, a smile spread in her eyes but still there’s still coldness deep down, “I can’t do it.”

She really couldn’t do it?

She had sold her marriage once to save Doris.

Was she able to bet on her dignity just for being a fake Mrs. Lee?

“Rose, after this is done, your life will be no different to that of yours right now.” Bright took back his hands and stood upright, “You think about it.”

Bright walked past her, got in the car and left the theatre.

Rose stood on the spot, the sun light went through, stretching her shadow into a long shape.

The sunlight was quite warm but she couldn’t feel it at all.

What should she do?
