Come on Daddy!

Chapter 41 Parents' Meeting Is A Must

Rose Linder was shocked that the lie was about to be revealed.

On the contrary, Bright Lee's calm as ever. As if he's nothing to do with it like an outsider, no matter it is.

"Dad, the wedding is a must, but not for now." Bright Lee had already been aware of Rose's panic.

"Not for now? Wait for another three years until when kids would be elder enough?" Francis Lee's pissed off to hear that from his son.

"Dad, it's not the best time for a wedding." Bright Lee raised his eyebrows slightly and said in a calm tone, "This is our wedding, and I will work on it properly."

"This is not just your wedding, it's also about the Lee Family and the relationship between both Families." Francis Lee's anger rose from the bottom of his heart, "And you're gotta screwed it up!"

Francis Lee was picking up a cup on the table and smashing on Bright. A stream of white light flashed in the air. Bright put Rose in his arms and crushed her over onto the sofa. The cup hit the flower vase behind then broke in pieces.

Rose felt her heart beating extremely fast, and she didn't even realize what happened.

"OMG dear, what are you doing? What if you hurt Rose?" Hallie Hill's full of worries. Both Francis and Bright were sharp to each other, and neither of them was willing to take a step back.

Francis exploded with anger and cried angrily, "Impossible! I'm always sure of everything I do!"

"Look at you, you' re not a kid. Just calm down first and control yourself. As the doctor requested it for you with no anger." Hallie Hill comforted gently his sore chest, and looked at Bright and Rose, "Are you all right? ?"

Rose gently pushed Bright away and took his arm, "You okay?"

"I'm not that vulnerable." said Bright calmly.

The cup would have hit on his forehead if he hadn't dodged fast. What’s worse, he might have even got bleeding for that.

Bright was afraid of hurting Rose so that first reaction was to protect her, though the cup was not for her.

Rose experienced ups and downs, and got shocked but moved inwardly.

At this moment, an unconscious emotion spread across her heart.

"Hey?" Bright was confused about her staring at him like this, she seemed to lose her mind.

Rose shook her head quickly, and looked at Francis, "Dad, I don't want to have a wedding, and it has nothing to do with Bright. It's all my fault, just don't blame on him please."

"Don't take his part, I know exactly who he is." Francis didn't believe what Rose explained.

"Dad, that's me who ask him to do so. I do want to keep a low profile, all I want is to live a peaceful life. ‘Cause I don't wanna so much attention on me as Mrs. Lee. And I will be disturbed at work and even questioned for my ability. Dad, I know it's kind of selfish though. To be honest, all I wish is to live a happy life with Bright. I don't really care about the wedding for it's merely a formality."

"Dad, could you give us more time on that?"

Rose spoke a lot so sincerely. She even moved by every word from the bottom of her heart.

"Dear, just let them go and I know they can handle it." Hallie also was moved and persuaded her husband.

Francis glanced at his wife who smiled softly at him.

"Alright, I'm old then and I stay out of it.The wedding is up to you. But there's no more discussion on the parents' meeting." He supported himself by the armrest of the sofa to stand up, "Let's go for dinner."

"Okay." Hallie helped him to the dining room. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Both Bright and Rose were still stuck on the sofa, and they had not brought back to themselves completely in shocks of what happened just now.

"Let's go, dinner first." Bright Lee intended to pull her up.

"But..." Everything's just out of imagination so that she had no appetite for anything. "Mr. Bright, have you ever thought of that matter and what's on earth your solution?"

"Just go with the flow." It seems that there's nothing in this world that will panic Bright Lee.

Rose looked up at him, "But now we're about to parents' meeting."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Bright Lee smoothed her twisted eyebrows with fingers, kind of affectionate.

Rose trembled her eyelashes slightly then took a step away uncomfortably, "Your parents are still waiting for us, let's go."

After that, she lowered her head and bypassed him to move quickly.

Bright stared at his fingertips and couldn't help shaking head with a smile.

Then he behaved naturally to thrust a hand in his trouser pocket and strode to keep up with her.

Inside the huge dining room was a round log table where Francis and Hallie were sitting next to each other. Meanwhile, the butler arranged a nanny to serve dishes on the table.

Bright pulled out the chair for Rose thoughtfully, and wait for her to sit down before himself.

Obviously there were only four of them at the table, but dozens of dishes were prepared.

"Rose, I was told that you're from City H, so I asked them to prepare some specialties and home- cooked dishes of City Y. I hope you like it." Rose really felt at home for the kindness of Hallie.

"Thank you, and sorry for bothering you." Looking at the dazzling array of delicacies, Rose thought it's kinda a waste of food.

"Rose, we're a family, don't mention it." Hallie Hill pointed at chicken soup stewed with matsutake and yam, "Bright, serve a bowl of soup for Rose. It's better to have soup first."

"Hallie, no need for that." How dare she? Bright Lee dipped soup for her? It's definitely what she couldn't imagine, "Let me serve soup for dad and you."

Rose ladled soup in their bowls for both Francis and Hallie who showed an apparent satisfaction and admiration for the girl.

At the time she was about to serve one for Bright, however, he took the ladle over from her and said, "It's my turn."

Hallie smiled at Rose and told her to sit down.

Very soon, Bright brought a bowl of soup to Rose, "Be slow and careful of the hot soup."

"Yeah." Holding the soup in her hands, she could feel the warmth flowing from palms into her heart.

Bright also served himself a bowl of soup which was indeed delicious.

Then everyone followed the rule of not saying while at the table, and Bright would pick some farther dishes to Rose.

The atmosphere was much more relaxing than before, so that Rose enjoyed dinner with them together as well.

Honestly, Hallie was graceful in manners including having dinner.

After dinner, Bright followed with Francis to the study to discuss matters, while Hallie stayed together with Rose to chat in the living room.

Hallie's passionate to introduce some effective skincare products to Rose, telling her that women should learn ways of skincare and treat themselves better from now on.

"This set of skincare products is a gift for you." Hallie's generous of selecting an international brand and said to Rose, "Just tell me once you run out of it."

"Thank you. But it's so precious for me as a gift and I won't take it." Rose declined.

"Do you think my gift is not as valuable as the gift left by his mother?" She pretended to be mad.

"That's not what I mean."

"Just feel free to take it." She stuffed it into Rose's hand.

It' not easy for Rose to refuse the gift once again but accept it, "Hallie, thanks a lot. "

"We are all your family here. You regarded me as an outsider if you keep saying so." Hallie Hill took Rose's hand and patted it gently, as loving as a mother.

"Visitors at home?" At this moment, a young man and a woman entered the living room.
