Rose was staring at Bright and felt ashamed.
But Bright thought it was banter and didn't care about it.
"You didn't feel it or what?" Bright put his hand on the button of his shirt, "I can let you feel it one more
time."
"Stop being playful, Bright!" Rose blushed with shame.
She was just conquered by his kiss and became submissive to him. She didn't realize that she would
be so eager for him.
She didn't regard herself as a lewd woman, but she became lustful once he touched her, which making
her ashamed.
Bright pinched her jaw and blew out heat on her face, "From now on, you are not allowed to propose a
divorce."
"So all I can do is wait for your proposal?" Rose felt bad about this. She didn't want to be the one that
was subjected to someone and could be banished anytime.
"Except death, nothing can tear us apart," Bright declared, "Rose, you owe me so much that you have
to pay back with your whole life. Just be content with being Mrs. Lee and don't disappear with your
daughter again, or I will lock you up and treat you like a toy for a month when I find you!"
He was not threatening or joking, he was for real.
Rose felt her leg weakened.
This was the claim of Bright, that nobody could be Mrs. Lee except her.
Rose blinked but didn't say anything.
Why did he do so much for her?
Though she could felt his affection for her, she didn't sure that it was only about love or it was her
hallucination.
Her heartbeat fastened when she thought about this.
But Bright thought she was unwilling to do so, "Rose, are you going to slip away? It was my child you
stole! Without me, you wouldn't have such a cute and smart daughter. Without her, Sky would have
died! Think about how many benefits you have got from it!"
"I know," Rose said calmly.
She did owe him and feel guilty about him. If this was the compensation he wanted, she would do this
for him.
And Doris had been missing her father for a long time. Now she was pretty fond of the reunited family.
She had been separated from her father for five years, and it would be too cruel for her to leave her
father again.
For the child, she should stay and be a good Mrs. Lee.
"Good to see you being cooperative," Bright complimented her in satisfaction.
The only thing he was thinking about was to keep Rose around him and to give Doris an intact family.
They were both the people he loved.
"Can we go back now?" Rose said.
"Sure," Bright let go of her. He had got the answer he wanted from her anyway.
Bright readjusted his clothes and got off the car.
He stood by the door and reached out his hand to Rose gently, trying to help her out.
Rose felt shy to refuse him, so she held his hand and went off the car slowly.
Bright went to the back of his car, opened the trunk, grabbed a traveling bag, and handed it to Rose
around him, "Take it."
"Can't you take it yourself?" Rose wondered.
"I have something else to take," Bright brought boxes of gifts from the trunk, like tea, wine, some food
for the elderly, and so on.
"This is my first time to visit my grandpa-in-law. He may be unconcerned about something material, but
I need to show my concern for him, right?" Bright closed the trunk and locked the car with lots of bags
in his hands.
Rose felt he was really a considerate person, always taking good care of the people around her.
Bright and Rose went back to grandpa's house and saw Sky sitting in the yard alone.
He heard the sound of opening the door and saw Bright and Rose as well.
Sky stood up, looked at Rose, and said, "Grandpa has fallen asleep."
Bright ignored him and put those things down in the living room.
He turned his head to Rose and said, "I get into the room first. When you are in, we can go to sleep."
Then he glanced at Sky, obviously trying to irritate him.
Rose felt helpless in mind. Sometimes Bright was like an immature child, and she was his favorite toy
that nobody could take it away from him.
"You hear me, my dear?" Bright asked her persistently.
"I hear you," Rose said to calm him down.
"Hurry up, my patient is wearing thin," Bright urged impatiently.
Rose looked at Sky and said, "Thank you. Why don't you go to sleep?"
Sky put his hands in the pocket, looked at the night sky, and said, " I haven't seen so many beautiful
stars for a long time. I want to admire them as long as I can since they will be unavailable for me when
I'm back to the city."
"You can see the stars on the top of Mount Maple," Rose suggested, "It's late now, you should get
some rest. You can sleep in the room next to grandpa's."
"Yeah," he nodded.
"I should go. Good night," Rose turned around and was about to leave.
"Rose…" Sky said after a hesitation.
Rose turned back and looked at him, "Yes?"
"I…Nothing. Good night," Sky said with a smile.
In fact, he wanted to tell her that he would go back to the city tomorrow morning. He could scarcely
bear to leave her, but all he could do was hide it deep down to his mind and hoped he could be less
painful one day.
Once Rose got in the room, Bright held her immediately and smelt the aroma from her, "What takes
you so long?"
"Just a small talk," Rose didn't think they had talked so long at all.
"You can take a shower and then sleep in the room in the west of the house," Rose handed the
traveling bag to him.
"I want to sleep by your side tonight," Bright didn't want to sleep alone.
"The bed is not as big as the one in our home. It will be so crowded to have three people on it," Rose
moved away from his arms gently, "That's not good for Doris."
"With Doris here, I won't do anything strenuous to you. And that was why I asked you to go out with me
to express my deep feelings for you," Bright patted the side of the bed, "I only take a little space and
won't squeeze you."
It reminded Rose of the situation in the car and her face flushed immediately, "Stop teasing me!"
