Come on Daddy novel (Bright and Rose) novel Chapter 155

"Doris, there is steamed egg with minced meat you like. Have some more." Rose gave Doris the spoon.

"Alright." Doris ate quietly.

Rose greeted William, "Enjoy yourself. They are all home-cooked meals. If you don't like them, order another."

"It all looks very good." William thought the dishes were exquisite and the food was delicious, which provoked people's appetite.

Rose served a bowl of soup and put it in front of William, "Try the soup first."

William drank the soup and thought it was delicious.

Rose had just taken a bite of the dish when a message popped up in her phone from Bright.

Bright: Where are you? Guess where I am.

Rose had a premonition. But she didn't dare to think too much. So, she replied: Where are you?

Bright quickly replied: I'm at the airport in City H.

Rose's hand was weak and she almost dropped the phone: You come to City H? Why didn't you tell me earlier?

Bright: I just want to give you a surprise.

'It's not a surprise, but a shock, okay?' Rose thought to herself and tried to calm down.

"What's wrong?" William saw Rose looking at her phone. Something seemed to be wrong.

"Nothing." Rose looked up at William and continued to reply to Bright: It is indeed a surprise.

Bright said again: I've decided on the fly and did not arrange a car. Come to pick me up, okay?

How could she leave now? She could not just leave William behind and go away.

Otherwise, what would William think of that? She would be a woman who was more interested in sex than friends.

Rose replied, hoping that Bright would not insist: I can't leave now. You can take a taxi to the hotel. I'll come to you later.

Bright was extremely "aggrieved" as she expected: What's more important than your husband? Mrs. Knight, do you want to refuse to take the responsibility?

Rose exhaled lightly, looking at William opposite her. It seemed that she could only tell the truth. Besides, she and William were innocent and just friends. It was normal for friends to have dinner together.

Rose weighed her words: William has come to City H on business. I'd like to perform the duties of the host and thank him for taking care of me all these years.

Ten seconds, half a minute, a minute ... two minutes passed and Bright did not reply.

Rose felt that the waiting time was lengthening and was a little anxious.

She sent a message: Are you angry? Mr. William comes to City H for the first time. He is my friend and former boss. I should meet him and invite him to dinner. Anyway, I didn't do anything wrong. If you are angry, I have nothing to say.

Rose didn't compromise, but spoke her ideas positively.

Bright still did not reply. Rose did not wait for him. In the dinner with friends, it was disrespectful to keep chatting on the phone.

William also put down the chopsticks and looked to Rose who had been looking at the phone and did not eat, "Rose, if there is anything, just say it."

William could tell from her face that she was worried about something.

"I … " Rose was just about to speak when a message came on her phone, "Wait a moment."

She clicked on the message from Bright. It contained a few pictures of her and William in this restaurant.

The angle of the pictures was tricky. So, it looked like they were a bit ambiguous.

Rose frowned. It seemed that there were people who did not like her in this restaurant saw them, or someone was stalking her.

If it was the former, then the person behind this was too scaring. The person must want to let Bright kill her.

No wonder Bright sent such a message asking where she was at this time. It seemed he received the pictures earlier.

Bright: I have thought you wouldn't tell me that William was with you. But since you told me, I'm not mad at you. He is so lucky that Mrs. Knight can have dinner with him. Besides, I didn't come to City H.

Bright was just to test whether she would tell the truth.

Rose replied: When do you become so mean?

He even deceived her like this.

Bright: Do you think I don't know what William is thinking? Do I have to be indifferent and generous when I see him chasing my wife?

Rose could imagine that Bright was raising his eyebrows in disdain over there.

Rose: It is just a meal. I owe him a lot and have to repay him. Besides, Doris is also with us. What are you worried about?

Without William, there would not be her now.

Bright replied: I'm on guard against him, not you. I'll repay him for you as your husband. You are allowed to sacrifice yourself to do it again. Even if you have to do it, I must be there too.

Rose: I will report it to you in advance, okay? But you deceived me. What do you think I should do with you?

Bright: I'll wash up and lie down on the bed as you wish.

Rose wrinkled her pretty nose. She didn't care, okay?

Rose finally replied: I have to eat enough to have strength. Don't disturb my dinner. Let's talk about it after I return home. Bye.

Rose then put her phone away and didn't bother to read any messages.

William was still waiting for her response.

"He knew you're in City H and we're having dinner together. So, he let me treat you well." Rose was just telling a lie.

William smiled, "I'm afraid this is not from Mr. Bright, but from you for him."

He knew Bright very well. Bright would never say such gentle words. It was a kind word from Rose who wanted them to 'get along'.

Rose kept smiling, "He said a lot. But that's what he meant in a nutshell."

"He knew I'm having dinner with you here. Did he embarrass you?" William didn't want to trouble her, "I can explain to him."

"No need. I've made it clear, and he did not embarrass me." Rose didn't want to say that Bright minded them having dinner together.

"Rose, if he treats you badly, I'm always…."

Rose interrupted him, "Let's hurry up and have dinner, or it will get cold and affect the taste."

She changed the subject and served the roast beef with chestnuts for William.

William insisted on finishing his words, "Rose, I will be glad if you live a happy life. If not, I do not want you to hurt yourself, even if that man is Bright."

"I don't think I'm the one who will hurt myself. William, don't worry. I know what I should do. No matter what happens to me and Bright in the end, I will never take you as a rebound guy. Do you understand?" Rose was just afraid that William would always stay like this. If so, she would feel guilty.

"You shouldn't give up your life for me. William, look forward. Happiness is waiting for you not far away."

"Let's be friends for life, okay?"
