Come on Daddy novel (Bright and Rose) novel Chapter 40

Bright turned his head sideways, his sight fell on Rose’s flat lower abdomen, and Rose stroked her lower abdomen out of instinct, her fair face was blushed with redness.

Rose had a guilty conscience, although she was pretending to be his Mrs. Lee and she was not pregnant at all, she did give him a daughter which was a fact.

“Dad, we’re still young, we don’t need to be in a hurry. We’ve got time.” Bright stared at her shy face, denying it.

They did not even have sex how could she be pregnant.

“It’s been three years. What have you been doing?” Francis said disapprovingly, he turned to look at Rose, “Rose, tell me, is he always busy with work and that he has no time to with you?”

Being targeted by Francis, Rose was faced with a dilemma, how was she supposed to answer such a tricky question?

Rose clutched her fingers together and peeked at Bright behind, expecting some hints from him.

However, she was busted by Francis, “Rose, what are you look at him for? Tell me the truth, if he dares to cause you trouble, tell me, I’ll be there for you.”

Rose was on the edge of crying but she somehow retained her smile, “Dad, he has been good to me.”

“Did he?” Francis’s words were full of suspicions, he looked at Bright reproachingly, “How come you don’t have a son or daughter after three years, I’ve been expecting to be a grandpa.”

“Dad, I’ll have to leave such matter as having kids to fate.” Bright sat down in the meantime, taking Rose in his arms.

They sat side by side, one was beautiful, the other was handsome, it was just like a magazine shooting, what a match!

“Cut it off.” Francis stared at his disobedient son, “Do you know uncle Jim’s son? He’s two years younger than you and he is already a father of two kids. Uncle Jim is busy playing with his grandchildren all day and can’t stop praising them whenever he meets people……So tell me, Bright, when can I be grandpa?”

“Dad, we will work harder.” Bright’s hand pressed harder on Rose’s shoulder, his eyes were dark and deep with emotion that she couldn’t make out, “Right?”

Rose’s eyes met with his, feeling trapped again by him.

“Dad, Don’t worry. He will make that happen.” It’s him, not them.

“Rose, this boy is a trouble maker, I’ll leave him in your charge from now on.” With a daughter-in-law, he was happy to shift the burden, “No matter what, Hallie and I will stand on your side.”

Hallie smiled without saying a word, it was inappropriate for her to talk about their relationship as a stepmother after all.

“Dad just handed me to you, you must take responsible with me then.” Bright looked at her affectionately.

Such Bright Lee seemed to be a good husband, it was as if she was the treasure in his eyes.

Rose was able to melt down before she recovered her senses, taking her eyes away from him, “Don’t play a victim when you have taken advantage.”

“Who has taken advantage?” Bright further demanded.

Of course it was me, but Rose never spoke out loud and responded to him with a disdainful look.

Seeing that they joked with each other, Francis showed a satisfying smile.

Hallie offered him the tea, “You see how good they are together, you can relax now.”

“I shall observe for a longer time.” Francis used the cup cover to filter the leaves on his tea, then took two sips.

“Don’t scold Bright in front of Rose, it’s not good to damage his image.” Hallie suggested to her husband, “This is Rose’s first time here, we should be nice and harmonious. And we as the elder generation should behave in a cultured way.”
