chapter 1505
Charmine wanted to explain, but Maurice merely said, "She's my daughter. I treat her like my daughter."
He then put the peeled lobster meat on her plate, expression filled with adoration that it drove the two waitresses crazy!
They were a couple after all!
This man was too gentle!
The best kind of relationship in the world was when a couple exchanged jokes with one another!
Even though his wife called him 'Grandpa', he still loved her for it.
Chris was speechless.
Looking at how Maurice resolved this awkward situation, how gentle and nice he treated Charmine, his small heart inexplicably weakened for him.
This old man was captivating...
Argh! He had to keep it together before he fell for his act, too!
Chris smacked his head and reminded himself to stay alert.
He must not give in so easily! He must not let him treat his Mommy so nicely!
After dinner, they went back to the hotel. Charmine was going to go back to her room with Chris when Chris' eyes widened, saying, "Mommy, can I sleep with old-no, Grandpa tonight?"
Charmine frowned. "Why? You'll disturb him."
She was right here. How could she let Chris sleep with Maurice?
Chris' watery eyes looked around, thinking of an excuse when Maurice thought of something and said, "It’s okay, Gem. I want to know this kid more anyway, so it’s okay."
He thought Chris was worried about Charmine finding out about his knee, so he spoke up for him.
Charmine pursed her lips. She knew that Chris did not like Maurice.
Since Chris would stay for a few days, it would be awkward if he remained unfriendly.
They might as well spend a night together to take things from there.
Charmine ruffled Chris' head. "Momo, be good, okay?" "Okay." Chris nodded happily. "I’ll be good."
Charmine turned to Maurice. "Sorry for the trouble, Mo." "It's nothing," replied Maurice kindly. "Don't worry, and rest well." "Okay."
As Maurice took his hand, Chris turned to look back. "Goodnight, Mommy."
In truth, he wanted to sleep with Charmine, but he did not believe that this old man was such a friendly person.
He wanted to find out how mean he could get.
Once he gained evidence, Charmine would not stay with him.
Yes!
The confident Chris returned to Maurice's room with him.
When the door shut, Chris looked at him vigilantly. "Mommy's not here, so don’t bully me. Don't try to beat me, either."
When Maurice heard him speaking so adorably, he smiled. "You’re as adorable as your Mommy."
What was this kid thinking? Why would he beat him? Did he seem like such a mean person?
"Don't fake it!" Chris scoffed. "Every fake woman has said the same thing to me to get close to my Daddy."
Maurice, upon hearing this, felt sympathetic. NôvelDrama.Org content.
What had Chris experienced to have become so cautious?
He took Chris into his arms and lifted him to the sofa, putting him down as he asked gently, "Does your wound still hurt?"
Chris blinked his big, sparkling eyes. He was stunned.
Ah! Why was this man so gentle?
Why was he so kind?
Oh, no! He could not help wanting Maurice to hug him!
Noticing that he did not react, Maurice rolled up his pant leg to check up on his wound.
Chris did not even flinch as thoughts whirled in his mind.
