Chapter 336
Because Emily kept talking, the whole dinner was delayed for another hour.
I was listening to her most of the time. However, fearing that Glenn would eat too much, I had to take care of him.
As I was looking at Glenn, I took a look at Shelton out of the corner of my eyes.
With a glance at him, I was stunned.
By this time, Shelton had finished his meal. Putting down his chopsticks, he stared at Emily attentively as she spoke.
Although the look in his eyes was as gentle as ever, there was a kind of attentiveness that was unfamiliar to me in his clear eyes.
Shelton looked at Emily so intently.
However, he was looking at others through Emily.
At this time, I turned to look at Emily, only to find that she was looking at Shelton closely as well.
However, as she looked at Shelton attentively, she wasn't the same as Shelton.
It was exactly Shelton who she was looking at.
And Shelton was all over her eyes.
I felt that my heart thumped all of a sudden. And intuition that something bad was about to happen was slowly rising in my heart.
At that moment, I gave up on the idea of asking Emily to help me take care of Glenn.
Frankly speaking, Emily, who was speaking energetically, did so for Shelton. I, who wasn't in the mood to listen to her anymore, asked, "Have you finished eating? Mom will have fun with you upstairs, okay?"
"All right."
Glenn nodded and wiped his mouth with the handkerchief in front of him.
I helped him get off the baby chair.
Emily interrupted herself immediately, asking, "Madam, shall I help you?"
"No." I smiled, "You guys can talk. I haven't seen Glenn for a long time. And I'll accompany him."
At this time, Shelton stood up, caught up with me, and said softly, "I'll accompany you. You won't find me an eyesore, right?"
"Of course not," I said with a smile.
When I finished speaking, I glanced at Emily intentionally or unintentionally, only to see that she stood there without moving at all.
Looking at Shelton, she couldn't help but look disappointed.
Without saying anything, I took Glenn upstairs.
Shelton accompanied us as well.
Glenn's small bedroom looked exactly like a toy house.
This time, Shelton bought him another big racing track on which he could play toy racing.
Each time, he could put a few cars there and start a competition.
The three of us had fun together for hours. At 10 p.m., Glenn refused to go to bed. In the end, per my repeated persuasion, he fell asleep after hearing seven stories from me.
As soon as Glenn fell asleep, I walked out of the room. Before I could go downstairs, I heard Emily's voice.
I stood quietly at the corner of the stairs. And there was only a lamp in the living room.
The light was dim.
With Shelton sitting on a single-person sofa in the living room, Emily stood on the side and talked about her affairs non-stop.
Women all got sinking feelings. Standing there, I suddenly realized that the relationship between Shelton and Emily suddenly changed. But what was the reason for this change?
I didn't know.
If it got down to the fact that Emily's past had aroused Shelton's interest, I surely wouldn't believe it.
After all, Shelton had so many hospitals at his disposal.
Emily's experience was probably similar to those of Shelton's nurses.
So, how was Emily different?
Even so, I didn't care about this.
If Shelton could divert his attention from me, it would be a wonderful thing for me.
Instead of going downstairs, I went to the bedroom with my cell phone.
I called Nancy and explained to her that I would take Glenn to the studio tomorrow.
According to Nancy, I didn't have to do such a troublesome deed, saying that her daughter was being taken care of by a reliable nanny during her holidays and that it wouldn't make any difference for the nanny whether she looked after one child or two children.
She asked me to take Glenn to the studio first tomorrow, saying that she would drive us to her house tomorrow.
I thought for a while. Thinking that it was a good proposal, I agreed.
Hanging up the phone, I washed up and lay down on the bed. After falling asleep for a while, I felt Shelton coming to the bedroom and lying down.
This time, instead of coming over to hold me in his arms, he lay alone on the other side of the bed.
The next morning, Shelton and I got up together.
Upon seeing me, Emily happily greeted, "Madam."
Then, seeing Shelton following behind me, she greeted him more happily, "Master."
Standing behind me, Shelton said faintly, "Good morning."
Hearing his brief words, I felt that the relationship between them wasn't as simple as I thought.
Behind Emily, Janice and Lacy stood there. Both of them glared at Emily with gloomy expressions on their faces.
And throughout the morning, Janice was in charge of cooking with Lacy helping her.
While Emily was the one who did all the other things.
Including fetching things, making tea, and so on...
Shelton sent Glenn and me to the downstairs of Nancy's office and left. After that, Nancy and I sent
Glenn to her house.
On the way, Glenn asked me, "Mom, where are we going?"
I asked him, "To see that little sister you saw that day. Do you still remember her?"
He said with a proud look on his face, "Which little sister? There are so many little sisters. How do I remember them?"
Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing, "How come you met so many little sisters? Who are they? Tell me about them."
Hearing my words, Glenn tilted his head and seemed to think about it carefully for a long time. Then he pouted his little mouth and said unhappily, "No..."
Hearing Glenn's words, Nancy, who drove in the front, burst out laughing, saying, "My daughter is your little fan. How could you have forgotten her like this?" Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
"Who are you talking about?" Hearing Nancy's words, Glenn looked at her with sparkling eyes.
"You'll know when you get there." I touched his head.
Although Glenn was a child who wasn't even five years old, unexpectedly, he cared so much about whether he had little girl fans.
Nancy drove all the way to the door of her house. And we went upstairs together.
As soon as she pushed the door open, Nancy's daughter stood right at the door.
Unlike what she had looked like back then, Nancy's daughter wore pink home wear with a pattern of Queen Aisha in Frozen on it.
Upon seeing Glenn, she opened her mouth wide and said, "Brother!"
"It turns out that it is you." Glenn's eyes were shining.
At first, he looked happy. But soon, he put on a cool look and said nothing.
Seeing him like this, I squatted down and asked him, "Would you like to have fun with this little sister?"
"Well, this..."
"If you don't want to, I'll take you away."
I said so on purpose.
Hearing that Glenn was going to leave, Nancy's daughter asked innocently with big and clear eyes, "Brother, are you going to leave like this?"
There seemed to be tears welling up in her eyes.
Seeing her like this, Glenn pouted and directly stepped into Nancy's house without saying anything. Reaching out to hold Nancy's daughter's hand, he said, "I won't leave if you don't cry." "Okay! Then I won't cry!" Hearing this, Nancy's daughter wiped away her tears right away and laughed through her tears.
The two of them walked inside without paying attention to Nancy or me.
I heard Glenn asking Nancy's daughter, "My name is Glenn. What's your name?"
"My name is Cicely."
Nancy's daughter answered.
At this time, standing beside me and looking at the backs of the two children, Nancy said, "In terms of the character, your son is really like his father."
