Come on Daddy!

Chapter 58 Don't Have to Rub it in

Yeah, it had been six years since he was burned to death by the fire.

They all remembered the fire that burned the night sky, lighting up the darkness around.

At that time, Nora looked at the raging fire in horror with bloodshot eyes. She wanted to rush in to rescue him, but was stopped by someone and prevented her from entering.

Rose was also frightened by that fire. Later then, Nora cried on Rose's shoulder with tears streaming down her face.

He was turned into fire, ashes, smoke... and he's gone away forever.

Nora loved him unreservedly and innocently when she's only nineteen years old. But what she loved and cherished were destroyed by the fire.

Could she forget it? Was it as easy as she acted?

"Just forget it, everyone has to look forward and grasp the current happy life." Rose sighed that time forced all of them to step forward.

The person she saw in City Y that time must have been a mistake.

Nora's doing pretty well now, Rose didn't want to remind her of sadness.

"Happy? What does "happy" mean?" Lowered eyes, Nora looked at the juice in her hand and shook it gently, "Rose, do you think it's happiness marrying love or money? As you look, am I happy now? And are you happy now?"

Rose was stopped by Nora's question. She couldn't answer what real happiness was, because she herself hadn't found it yet.

"Rose, neither of us is happy." Nora smiled bitterly, "Or it's not the happiness we want."

"For those years I loved him deeply. I thought I would be happy with him, but he died. A year later under my parents' arrangement, I married a man who they were satisfied with. The marriage was more a cooperation of the interests between two families."

"Nora, you can say no." Rose's pupils were dyed with sadness.

"He died, I couldn't marry him. So it made no difference for me to marry anyone." Nora burst into a charming smile, and took a sip of the juice by her red lips.

It didn't matter at all who she marry if she couldn't marry the one she loves the most.

Rose deeply understood that Nora was thoroughly heartbroken for what she said.

Just as Rose was set up by her own sister and betrayed by Sky Tanner, she was desperate as well at that moment. But she looked forward to being in love with others.

"Nora, you're torturing yourself. You can say no if you don't really want to marry him. Maybe someone will come to you in future, he'll protect and cherish you... It's early for you to give up." Rose persuaded Nora, but couldn't persuade herself.

"It's okay Rose. And I enjoy my life now." Nora put down the cup, leaned her arm on the sofa and bent legs, then looked at Rose, "I don't have to do anything, but I get everything I want. It's on my call to pay for everything with gold cards and VIP cards. Money really matters in current society. It’s hard to do anything if you don’t have it."

"Now back on you. You have to work hard to earn money by yourself. At least I don't have to work hard in a company for food and clothing. I feel quite relaxed, all I do is to dress myself as a princess."

Rose looked at the glamorous Nora, felt like the girl in front of her seemed to be no longer the Nora she once knew, but it's still someone she's familiar with.

Nora's still her good friend, she would still do her best and stand out for Rose.

But something changed that there's no love from Nora's eyes.

"Now that you're back this time, you have to hold everything tight that belongs to you. And don't be silly once again. What we hold in hands is more reliable than men." Nora raised one hand, and fist her fingers in front of Rose.

"I got it." Rose knew exactly the purpose of coming back.

Five years of patience and humiliation were pure to serve her back journey this time.

"Please take good care of Doris." Rose checked the time and was about to back Linder House. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Don't worry. I will definitely take good care of the baby girl." Nora got up and sent Rose off.

Rose walked to an empty area behind the sofa. There were a lot of things for children to play, which Nora had specially vacated for Doris.

"Dear, mom is going back to see your great grandma first, tell her about everything, and then take you home. Is that okay?" Rose worried that she would scare granny if she didn't tell her ahead of time but take a baby back.

"Okay." Doris still had questions for that and she was unwilling to part with mom. But she still followed mom without asking.

Rose hugged her adorable daughter, and then kissed her on the forehead.

Nora ordered the driver to drive Rose back. It only took a few minutes as the Linder Villa was close to here.

It's also convenient for Rose back here if she left Doris in Nora's house.

"Call me if there's something wrong, I will arrive there as soon as possible." Nora made a gesture of calling to Rose who had already sit inside.

Rose understood and nodded then.

Soon Rose arrived at the Linder Villa. The driver drove her to the door of the villa and helped her bring luggage to the door then leave.

Elena opened the door and looked unnaturally when she saw Rose, "Miss Rose, welcome back."

Nothing wrong with what she said. But Rose felt that Elena didn't welcome her back sincerely. After all, Elena was scolded by Grandma Linder because of Rose.

"I promised granny to come back. After all, it's granny who told me that. Besides, I'm free to leave and go home." Rose stood at the door with a chuckle, "Elena, am I right?"

"Yes, Miss Rose." Elena didn't dare to say no.

"Then please bring me the luggage inside. It's really tiring after a few days of business trip, I need to take a shower to relax myself." Rose stretched a hand to gently push Elena away who had been blocking the door. She stepped inside with a master's posture.

Elena looked at the two luggage left at the door. She felt resentful, but dare not to show up, all she could do was to bring them in.

Rose came back at three o'clock in the afternoon, so there was only grandma at home without anyone else.

"Dear granny, I'm back. Did you miss me?" After seeing grandma, Rose hugged her tightly and acted like a baby.

"Definitely I missed you so much. Finally you're back. How inconsiderate you are for leaving so many days!" Grandma pushed presbyopic glasses on the bridge of her nose.

"Granny, I was working and handle with something wrong. But you see, here I am!" Rose kissed grandma's wrinkled face, "And I transferred all my work to City H. From now on, I'll work here and stay by your side."

"Well, that's good. Then it's proper time for granny to start your blind date." Grandma was satisfied with it.

"..." Rose smiled stiffly.

Granny really didn't have to rub it in.
