Billionaire’s Runaway Bride

Upon hearing the child’s words, a dark shade passed over my eyes. “Why did Dad argue with Auntie?”

Lundy asked persistently, “What if Auntie gets angry and doesn’t talk to us anymore?” Seeing that the child was blaming himself, I helplessly furrowed my brow.

“Dad is also very angry.” The child looked surprised and stared at me with a scowl. “Dad can’t be angry!” “Why can’t Dad be angry?”

I asked in exasperation. The child frowned and looked serious. “Because you’re chasing after Auntie! So, you have to make Auntie happy!”

As soon as the child finished speaking, I felt my brow furrowing and my eyes darkening. Indeed, I had forgotten even the most basic of principles due to my momentary anger.

Thinking of the woman’s resentful expression just now, I self-mockingly bit my lip. It was no wonder that after pursuing her for so long, there had been no substantial progress in our relationship.

“I know I was wrong.” when I came to my senses, I apologized to the little boy in a low voice.

Lundy snorted with satisfaction and pretended to be unreasonable. “What did dad do wrong?”

I took a look through the rearview mirror and answered in accordance with her tone, “Daddy shouldn’t have been angry with aunt. I was too impulsive.”

Lundy nodded with satisfaction and asked, “why did Daddy and aunt quarrel?”

Hearing this, I shook my head with amusement.

This little guy has already admitted that it’s my fault. He still wants to ask the truth.

But now that he wants to know, I don’t mind making it clear to him. After all, I will inevitably ask him for help in the future.

Thinking of this, I said frankly, “Daddy and aunt have some misunderstandings. As you can see, daddy has done a lot of things these days, but aunt is unwilling to accept it. So Daddy is a little anxious and wants to ask her for an explanation.”

Hearing this, Lundy was also a little anxious, but she still stood on the side of Aimee. “Daddy, if you are in a hurry, you can ask Lundy for help. Don’t lose your temper with aunt anymore!”

I nodded and said, “okay.”

The child nodded satisfactorily, a smile returning to their face. But as we approached the Carter’s mansion, the child’s smile began to waver.

“Dad, how much longer is she going to stay at our house?” Lundy asked cautiously. I knew exactly who the child meant by “she”. Thinking of the woman still staying in our house, my heart sank. In hindsight, the woman was right. With Lundy’s hostility towards Bonnie, if the woman stayed any longer, it could affect the child’s condition. However, due to my own mother, if I wanted to send Bonnie away, I would need a suitable reason…

Thinking this, my answer to the child was somewhat vague,

“If you don’t like her, Dad will make her leave as soon as possible.” The child nodded reluctantly. As soon as we arrived at the villa’s entrance, Bonnie greeted us,

“Penn, Lundy, you’re back.” I nodded coldly at her, loosening my tie with one hand and holding Lundy’s hand with the other.

The little guy’s resistance to Bonnie is so obvious that I have to give him a sense of security in this way.

Now seeing the expression on his face when he faced Bonnie, I only feel regret for agreeing to my mother’s request.

“Is Lundy hungry?” Bonnie looked into the little boy’s eyes and asked, “aunt will take you to wash your hands and then let’s go to have dinner, okay?”

The little guy shook his head without hesitation, grabbed my hand and shrank behind me

Noticing the little guy’s fear, I frowned and looked at the woman in front of me coldly. “No, thanks. I will take care of him. You just need to take care of yourself.”

Then i held the little guy’s hand and walked past her.

Afte washing hands, we sit at the table.

Lundy and I sat on the same side, leaving Bonnie alone sitting opposite.

Bonnie smiled as if nothing had happened. “Is Lundy happy with Daddy today?”

Lundy ignored her question.

I looked up at her and wanted to see what she was going to do.

Bonnie smiled and continued, “I don’t think Lundy has anything to play with you in the company. You are busy with your work, so I’m afraid that he will be bored.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

After saying that, she turned to look at Lundy and suggested with a smile, “can I play games with you later? I specially bought a lot of game dishes for children today!”

Lundy pursed her lips and shook her head.

Bonnie’s smile became even more genuine, “What does Lundy want to play? Auntie can play with you.”

The child put down their chopsticks and looked up at me with hopeful eyes. Seeing the child’s desire to go upstairs to avoid Bonnie’s attempts at pleasing them, I furrowed my brow and did not agree. The child was already weak, and with me there, I wouldn’t allow them to skip a meal.

Seeing my refusal, the child’s face fell. I turned to Bonnie and warned her with a glance, “If you have time to play games with Lundy, you can call your family a few more times to help your father calm down.”

Bonnie bit her lip and argued with a face full of grievances, “I just want to make up for the time I haven’t spent with Lundy before. I don’t know him well enough, so I hope to get to know him better during this time.

” I interrupted her coldly, “There’s no need for that. You and Lundy may not have the opportunity to get along, so you don’t need to know each other, and Lundy doesn’t need to know you either.”

Finally, things quieted down. During this time, the child had quickly finished their meal and didn’t even ask me for permission as they put down their chopsticks, hopped off their chair, and ran up the stairs with their short legs. Without much thought, I followed the child and went upstairs.
