Chapter 282
Bella‘s POV: I put down Lucky, who was still crying, and went to open the door. Herbert glanced at me, turned around, ran to Lucky, and picked her up from the sofa bed. “Good girl, don’t cry. I‘ll take you out to play, okay?” Herbert held her in his arms and walked back and forth in the narrow house.
Looking at him, I couldn‘t imagine that he had such a soft side. It could be said that he had infinite patience for Lucky. “Dad, Dad...” Seeing Herbert, Lucky seemed to be wronged and kept muttering for her father. In the past two months, Herbert would visit her almost every week and buy her a lot of food and toys. Although Lucky was only one year old, she already knew who was good to her and would call him father.
Compared to Klein, Lucky seemed to like Herbert more, although Klein had doted on her as much as Herbert had doted on her. Bloodline was really something strange, and it could quickly pull two people together. At this time, a small hand gently pulled my clothes. Tlowered my head to take a look, only to see that it was Lucas who raised his head and spoke to me in a childish voice, “Mommy, is Lucky naughty and disobedient? I will be very obedient. Mommy, don‘t be angry. I‘m here to help you with your work today. I will pack up the goods for you.” After that, Lucas, who wore black pants and a white shirt, turned around, squatted on the small stool, and carefully put the goods into the box.
The little gentleman was so well–behaved and sensible, and my anger disappeared in an instant.
At this moment, seeing Lucky who was being held in Herbert‘s arms, I blamed myself a little. It was common for a child to not be obedient, eat or sleep. Why didn‘t I control my emotions today? Then, I walked to Lucas, squatted down, and began to pack up the products that Lucas had put into the boxes with tape one by one and wrote the address on them.
In fact, this was a tedious task that required a lot of attention. It was also very dull. But in order to live a good life with my daughter and have a home that belonged to us, I must persist. Herbert carried Lucky
out to play and two hours had passed when he returned with Lucky in his arms. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
The piles of goods in the room turned into small packages and were neatly arranged on the floor of the living room.
At this moment, Lucas was sitting on a small stool and eating an apple, while I was cleaning the rubbish that we left with a broom. In the arms of Herbert, Lucky fell asleep. I quickly turned around and laid out the pillow and small mattress on the sofa. Herbert gently put her on the sofa bed, and then gently covered her with a thin quilt. We looked into each other‘s eyes. There seemed to be a special attraction in Herbert‘s eyes.
I didn‘t dare to look him in the eye. I quickly straightened up and turned to continue to clean up the rubbish on the ground. “Daddy, do you want to eat apples?” At this time, Lucas who was sitting on the small bench raised the apple in his hand.
“No, you can enjoy it yourself.” Herbert shook his head.
At this time. I glanced at the fruit tray on the tea table and said in a stiff voice, “There are freshly
washed apples over there.”
Hearing this, Herbert looked at the apples on the tea table and then looked at me. He smiled and showed his white teeth.
Then, he excitedly walked to the tea table, reached out to take an apple, nodded, and took a bite. He nodded and said, “Well, this apple is really delicious!” At this moment, Lucas said, “Dad is lying!” “Why am I lying?” Herbert raised his eyebrows at Lucas. “Dad, you hate apples the most. Every time I asked you to bite it, you wouldn‘t bite it. You said that you hate apples the most!” said Lucas.
Hearing this, I was stunned.
Herbert, on the other hand, was extremely embarrassed. He glared at Lucas and said, “Shut up, little guy!” Hearing this, Lucas immediately stood up and ran to me. He held my thigh and said, “Mommy, Dad is mean to me.” “How dare he?” I looked in the direction of Herbert.
Lucas‘s attitude towards Herbert immediately became much more arrogant. “I have a mother to protect me!”
Herbert didn‘t say anything. He just reached out his hand and pointed to Lucas as a warning. Later, I saw that it was getting late, so I said to Herbert, “It‘s getting dark. It‘s better for Lucas to spend the weekend here. You can go back first!”
Herbert hesitated for a moment, then stood up from the sofa.
I could see that he didn‘t want to leave.
He had been looking at Lucky, Lucas and me.
But I didn‘t want him to stay.
Then, he said to Lucas, “Listen to mommy. Don‘t be naughty!”
“Yes!” Lucas immediately stood up and gave a salute.
Herbert‘s lips curved upwards, and then he turned to leave.
My eyes couldn‘t help but fall on the two of them.
Although they had a very good relationship and they looked warm.
But I still pulled a long face. It was impossible for me and Herbert to be together, but for the sake of our two children.
I was willing to have a peaceful conversation with him. When Herbert walked to the door, he suddenly looked back and glanced at the narrow space. He
frowned and said, “Bella, shall I find a bigger house tor you?” I know it was very small here. The wide sofa bed occupied almost half of the living room. In front of the tea table and the TV cabinet, there were packed express packages, and there were a lot of goods piled up on the balcony, like several small mountains. Lucky‘s baby car, pampers, and toys could only be piled up in the corner. With me and Lucas in the living room, there was no more space left. Although it was small, it belonged to me.
I didn’t want to get anything from him, so I refused him. “No need. Thank you for your kindness.”
In fact, he had said such words more than once, but I would always turn him down. In the future, I would rely on myself. I didn‘t want to rely on any other man, especially Herbert. I didn‘t want to have any connection with him in the future. I thought he would leave right away.
But unexpectedly, Herbert suddenly said loudly, “Bella, you are an adult. You can suffer some grievances, but what about the children? How can Lucas and Lucky grow up happily in such an environment?”
