chapter 1506
Noticing there were still bruises on his knees, Maurice looked at him sympathetically and quickly turned to get the medical box to clean his wound.
Afraid that Chris might get hurt, he moved cautiously and gently.
Chris initially thought Maurice was still playing pretend, and he pouted.
However, when he felt how gentle he moved, he could not help looking at him wide-eyed. He asked, "Mommy isn't even with us. Why are you still so nice to me?”
Maurice looked at him gently and replied, "Why would I only be nice to you in front of your Mommy?”
Chris snorted, "You know why!"
Maurice raised an eyebrow. "Don't take things to a stretch, kiddo."
Chris pouted and snorted.
This old man had always been so gentle. When could he garner evidence against him about his mean side?
Chris looked around and looked at Maurice who was packing up the medical box. He coldly ranted, "You're a grandpa, and you're too old to be with my Mommy. My Mommy won't like you, and I hate you."
Chris then pressed a button on his electronic watch, wanting to record how Maurice would lash out at him.
However, Maurice was not angry at all. He merely looked at him, still gentle as usual. "You got it all wrong, kiddo. You're even calling me 'Grandpa', so why would I want to be with your Mommy?"
Chris looked at him suspiciously.
Argh! This man would not give in easily. He was a step ahead!
Chris jumped out of the sofa angrily. "I’m going to shower." "Okay, hold on."
Maurice walked into the bathroom and prepared a bath with the right temperature for him.
Chris was speechless.
What could he do? He started to find this old man incredibly kind and caring; he had the urge to run into his arms and kiss his cheek.
Uneasy, Chris hated Maurice while trying not to be charmed by him.
He helplessly picked up a pajama set to walk in. Maurice asked caringly," Do you need my help to shower?" "No!" Chris glared at him keenly. "Don’t come in!" "Okay." Maurice remained gentle. "Be careful of your wound. Don’t let it get hurt or infected." "I don’t need you to teach me!" yelled Chris as he then rushed into the bathroom.
After Chris’ shower...
Maurice prepared a bed for him.
Seeing that he had come out, Maurice asked, "Why don't you come and see if the pillow is right for you, kiddo? If not, I'll ask my assistant to get you another."
Chris looked at it coldly and turned away. He jumped into the bed and found it very comfortable. Still, he wanted to push this man's buttons, so he snipped, "Not comfy-it's too soft." "Okay, I'll get you
another one." With that said, he phoned Sofia to bring a more-stuffed pillow.
However, Chris was still not satisfied. "It's too hard."
He sat on the bed angrily. "It's so hard that I'll choke. Do you want me to suffer or something?"
Maurice looked at the pillow and frowned.
Chris was satisfied.
Haha! He had to be angry at this point. Oh, how he expected Maurice to hit him then and there!
Chris pressed a button on his electronic watch to record again. He was waiting for Maurice to get angry.
However... NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Maurice merely took away the pillow. He measured it with his hand and contacted Sofia again.
"Tell the shop that this is for a four-year-old boy. Be more precise. Get a pillow two centimeters shorter than the previous one."
Chris was speechless.
Gosh!
This was his first time meeting a 'grandfather' as peaceful as Maurice. He had no flaw in him!
Chris was obviously trying to piss him off, but he remained tranquil, still.
Whatever.
If this went on, he would have to give in again.
Chris fell back onto the bed and draped the blanket over his form.
