Chapter 242 It Turned out that She Was not His Daughter
Doris pouted her lips slightly. Of course, she knew that she didn't respect Lina at all just now, and that she was too aggressive. But when she thought that Lina was going to take over her father from her mother, she couldn't help but hate her.
"Dad, I know, but that aunt can only see you. She must like you very much... I'm afraid she'll take you away. I'm afraid you won't want us. I can't let my mother be wronged or hurt. I did it to protect my mother and me, and I don't think I did anything wrong." Doris insisted on her idea.
Bright signed. Of course he knew Doris was worried about her mother. "Dad has always treated that aunt as a sister. What you thought are not going to happen. Unless your mother and you don't want me, otherwise I would not leave you." Bright assured her, "Besides, in your eyes, is your dad easy to be taken away and easy to be tempted away?"
"Dad, I believe in you, but sometimes the temptress's tricks are very powerful. Even the most powerful are not careful sometimes. What if you were to be tricked?" Doris was still worried. "I don't trust her."
Bright was speechless after hearing what Doris said, "Who taught you that?"
Shouldn't a child's world be simple? Why was Doris' world so complicated, like she knew everything?
"No one taught me. I knew that because I have seen and heard many things about that." Doris sounded like a grown-up. "When I was in kindergarten at City Y, I saw a kid in my class who wouldn't let her new mom pick her up. She said that woman was a temptress, and seduced her father, and gave birth to a younger brother. And that was why her father and mother were separated. She hated that woman."
"Daddy, auntie Lina wants to be my new mother too, and I can't agree to this and I won't accept it! My only mother is Rose."
"Daddy promises it wouldn't happen, and you only have one mother and that is Rose." Bright calmed her.
"Dad, you must not be tempted by that woman! I do not want dad and mom to separate. I do not want to be like that child..." Doris was very insecure.
Bright took Doris in his arms and held her by the shoulders. "Don't think too much and don't talk nonsense. You have to trust dad. Aunt Lina and father grew up together. If dad liked her, I wouldn't have waited until after I married your mom. The only person dad is going to spend the rest of his life with is your mom."
"Dad, I love you." Doris's little hand gripped Bright's shirt.
"Daddy loves you, too." Bright bent his head and kissed Doris on the forehead.
After he had a talk with Doris, Bright started to work. He was very busy with his work, having many files to check and many decisions to make.
They had lunch in the office. Masie ordered the nutritious meal for Doris, and the regular meal for Bright.
"It's delicious." Doris put a mouthful of food into her mouth and looked at Bright with smiling eyes. At that moment, Doris looked like a real child.
Bright said, "If you like it, dad will have the food delivered to your kindergarten every day."
"No, the kindergarten's food is good, too. Besides, we have paid the money. We can't waste it." Doris was a frugal child. "Mom and dad work very hard to earn money," she said.
Bright's lips curved and he said, "Well, finish it quickly."
Doris ate happily. Looking at Doris, Bright had a good appetite.
Bright accompanied Doris to read during the lunch break. Later, he had to attend an important meeting, so he left Doris alone in the office.
Bright told Masie to ask someone to keep an eye on Doris and pay special attention to her safety.
Masie then gave the task to another secretary in the General Secretarial Office.
But they did not expect that Lina and Zoe came to look for Bright at 3 o'clock. They had just gone shopping and bought a lot of things. Now they were both tired, and they wanted to have a rest in Bright's office.
Lina and Zoe didn't realize that Doris was the only one in the office.
Thinking of being angered by this young girl before, Linda didn't think she had to pretend to be good when Bright wasn't here.
It was the first time Zoe met Doris, and her first reaction was that Doris looked like Rose.
She whispered to Lina, "I didn't know that woman has a cute daughter."
"Don't be fooled by her appearance; she has a gift of the gab." Lina was also fooled by her angelic face. So, you could judge a book by its cover; otherwise, you would suffer a lot.
"Really?" Zoe couldn't believe that a child could be so glib that she made Lina speechless.
"I've just told you. If you don't believe me, try it." Lina sat down gracefully.
Zoe sat down and looked at Doris, "Baby, is your mother Rose?"
Doris was quietly reading a book, not intending to talk to them, but now that they had taken the initiative to speak to her, she would not be polite.
"I have to know who you are before answering your question." Doris wanted to know who the woman with Lina was, what the woman's relationship was to her, and what her relationship was to Dad.
"I'm Bright's sister Zoe Hill." Zoe introduced herself.
"Another sister? How many sisters does my father have?" Doris put the book down again and looked at Zoe with suspicion. "Why don't all my father's sisters have the surname Lee? You're not my father's real sisters, are you?"
Doris thought she was just another temptress trying to seduce her father.
"We are not Brother Bright's sisters, but are you his real daughter?" Lina snorted, "The pot calls the kettle black... Oh, no, at least Brother Bright and I have known each other since childhood, and Zoe is his sister. We spent much time together, not like you, who just met him for so short."
Doris was touched on her hurting point. She was not Bright's own daughter. If her mother didn't marry the handsome uncle, she wouldn't have been able to call him daddy.
"Are you jealous that I have no blood relation with my father, but he still loves me and spoils me?" Doris was not angered by Lina's words. "I am like his real daughter in his heart." NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
"So you are not my brother's real daughter!" Zoe got an important message, "My brother lied to my father that you are his own daughter and have the blood of the Lee family! I must tell father about it, or he will still be in the dark."
