One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 407

Teresa frowned and looked at her two children. Was this their purpose?

"What do you two want to do?"

She didn't like her children to play tricks on adults. If they did thing like this, what was the difference between them and Enrique? Seeing that their mother seemed to be unhappy, Brain and Bruce hurriedly pulled the corner of Teresa's clothes.

"Mommy, don't be unhappy. Bruce and I just want to help Auntie Fiona to test Uncle Ares."

"But don't you two think it's unfair to another girl? You two took advantage of her kindness. Mommy is really angry with what you two did. You two should reflect on yourselves."

"Mommy, we are wrong."

Bruce knew that his mother was really angry this time. He raised his head and apologized seriously. Brain also raised his big watery eyes and looked at Teresa pitifully. His mother would be softhearted as long as he acted like this. But this time, their mother seemed to be really angry. No matter how they admitted their mistakes, their mother still didn't say a word to them. The two children's eyes were filled with tears. They didn't mean to do anything bad. They just wanted to help Auntie Fiona.

"Did you two little guys piss your mother off?"

Fiona felt that it was unnecessary for her to stay there, and she felt uncomfortable. She passed Peggy and Ares and came to the side of the two little guys. However, the two little guys were standing still with tears in their eyes, while Teresa was standing with her back to them. Well, she had seen such a scene when she was abroad. It must be the two kids who made their mother angry.

"Auntie Fiona, please tell mommy that we really know we are wrong. We won't do it again. Mommy, don't be angry. Don't ignore me and Bruce."

Tears fell down from Brain's eyes all of a sudden. He looked pitiful. Seeing this, Fiona held the two children in her arms and looked up at Teresa.

"Teresa, the two of them are still young. If they do something wrong, you can have a talk with them. Don't always get angry with the children like this."

"Yes, yes. I can't even manage my own children now. What's the use of me?"

Teresa didn't know why she suddenly felt wronged and helpless. All her motivation was from the two children and Fiona. As a result, the two children' way of behavior were more and more like Enrique. Even Fiona...

"Mommy, don't cry. We know we're doing something wrong, we really know we're doing something wrong!"

Bruce burst into tears too. He hugged Teresa at once. When Ares and Peggy looked up, they saw the four people hugging together, with tears and snot. Peggy knew that she'd better keep silent at this time, so did Ares. He just felt sorry for Fiona. She was thinner than before, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind.

After a long time, Teresa's emotion slowly recovered. She shouldn't have lost control of her emotions all of a sudden. She squatted down and held the two crying children in her arms.

"I'm sorry, Bruce, Brain. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry."

"Mommy, we really don't dare to do that again."

"Bruce won't do that, either."

"It's all right. It's all my fault."

Tears streamed down Fiona's face. The four of them had experienced too much together. After calming herself down, Teresa turned around and gave an apologetic smile to Peggy and Ares.

"I'm sorry. "

"It doesn't matter."

Ares waved his hand. In fact, he really wanted to stand up and hold Fiona in his arms, but he knew that she would refuse, just like she chose to avoid him from the beginning. Love was something that might come at any time. He hated that his love for Fiona came too late.

Picking up four baskets of strawberries slowly, Teresa walked back after weighing all the strawberries. She kept asking Fiona beside her.

"Fiona, are my eyes red?"

Fiona herself was not much better than her. She quickly shook her head and said that it was not a big deal until they met with the three old men.

"Wow, father, you've caught a lot of fish."

"Wow. Grandpa Harris, you are awesome. You caught a lot of fish. Tonight, Brain wants to eat braised fish, boiled fish and fried fish."

"I want to eat roasted fish."

Harris was already very happy, and he was even happier when he heard what his two grandsons said. But the world was always like this, some people felt happy and others felt unhappy. Harris got a big harvest, and even Gavin catch two fishes, but unfortunately, Albert didn't catch one. He was very angry.

"Humph, I won't fish anymore."

Putting down the fishing rod, Albert stood up and left angrily. Peggy looked at her brother, and Hubert shrugged his shoulders. Sure enough, rich people have a bad temper. It was not a big deal. He just haven't caught fish, right? Hubert took two fishes from the fishes he caught and put the rest back in the pond.

Back to the wooden house, even though Brain and Bruce were coaxing and pestering Albert, Albert was still not happy. In the end, it was still Teresa who suggested that Harris and two kids continue to play aeroplane chess with Albert. Only when Albert won Harris on the chessboard did he feel relieved. At dinner, the table was full of delicious food and was full of all kinds of dishes about fish. Albert didn't eat any dish which was made by fish. It was part of Albert's persistence and pride.

In the next few days, Teresa and the others experienced the pleasure of doing the farm work. Moreover, the two little guys fell in love with picking up eggs for the chickens raising in free range in the backyard of the farmhouse. Every time they got one, they would show off for a long time.

The three old men were completely in love with aeroplane chess. They had to play for a while every day, or they couldn't fall asleep. Because of Albert, the three old men went to catch fish again the second day. This time Albert was happy, because he caught more fish than Harris. He ate fish happily that night.

In the farmhouse, there were mountains, rivers and beautiful scenery, delicious food and fun, but they still had to go home. No matter how good the farmhouse was, it was not their home. After playing for a few days, they chose to drive home on a sunny afternoon.

Of course, Teresa needed to go back to the Gu Family, while Harris wanted to take his two grandsons back to the Shen Family first. He wanted to bring the fish, strawberries, and vegetables like eggplant that they had got in the farmhouse to Enrique.
