Chapter 427 I Just Wanted to Give Vent to Your Anger
Joy only frowned deeply and said nothing.
Chandler added, "We should think in big picture. Don't mess with her. Even if she angers you, you should bear it and don't take it seriously. She is, after all, the top dog in our family."
"If we offend her, will Bright let go of the Linder Family? Well, maybe there is only me who will be so humble after marrying off the daughter. But Joey, for the sake of the Linder family, just bear it."
He patted Joy on the shoulder to comfort her.
Joy did not want to be asked about what happened just now, so she said, "Fine."
"Go downstairs to have dinner. I have to get changed." Chandler went to the cloakroom.
Joy's mind was in a mess and she felt upset.
Rose's resentment toward her was very deep and with the knowledge of her background, she wouldn't take the Linder family seriously anymore.
In the future, if something happened to the Linder family, she wouldn't offer a hand.
As Rose said, the Linder family had nothing to do with her from today on.
Joy worried that Rose would tell Chandler on a whim that she was not his daughter. Then Joy would be in trouble.
It mattered to her. Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
What would the Linder family and Chandler do if they knew that she had cheated on them for more than twenty years? Would they drive her out of the Linder Family?
Joe felt very uncomfortable at the thought of it, her brows furrowed. As if being pressed by a heavy stone, she lost her breath.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of the paternity test report Rose had left on the coffee table.
She quickly picked it up and then heard Chandler's footsteps.
Her heart thumped with fright, and she hid the report in the back drawer of the cupboard under some books.
"Aren't you going down yet?" Chandler was adjusting the cuffs of his leisure clothes as he watched Joy get up from the cupboard. "Are you looking for something? Should I help you?"
"No... No, nothing." Joy's face was pale and her expression was a little unnatural. "Come on, let's go down for dinner."
Joy took Chandler's arm and led him out of the bedroom.
Chandler felt Joy was very different today. "What's wrong with you today? Why did you look so panic? What was going on between you and Rose and why was she so angry?"
"Oh, it's nothing." Joy began to find an excuse to fool it around. "Five years ago, we treated her badly as we mistrusted Sophie, so she always had a grudge against us."
"I just mentioned Sophie, and if she could plead with Sky on behalf of Sophie on the basis of sisterhood, then she said I was biased. I know that Rose has suffered a lot in those years and I have tried my best to make up for it, but she can't move on. I shouldn't have said anything about Sophie."
Seeing that Joy had admitted her mistake, Chandler didn't reproach her, and said, "Since you know she doesn't want to hear anything about Sophie, why did you bring it up? Sophie hurt Rose last time, and almost claimed Bright's life, but the Lee family did not file a lawsuit against her."
"But Sophie didn't correct her mistake and hurt Mrs. Tanner, which also almost put her to death. How could you let the Tanner family spare her? You should blame that shit for not correcting her mistakes! She should pay the price."
"I see." Joy nodded obediently. "It is not a bad thing for her to suffer a little."
"Yes." Chandler was satisfied to see Joy being reasonable. "I will talk to Bright about what has happened today and ask him to appease Rose. Otherwise, it would do the Linder family no good once the relationship between the Lee family and the Linder family gets tensed."
Joy agreed.
Chandler went to the study after dinner and made a phone call to Bright. He first wanted to ask if Rose had said anything to Bright. And then he would say something nice so as not to increase misunderstanding.
Bright took a glance at Rose, who was reading, when he saw Chandler calling him. "It's your father Chandler."
"He is not my father." Rose continued to read the book and said, "I have nothing to do with the Linder family."
"So, he's not my father-in-law?" Bright frowned. "Then I can say what I want."
"Suit yourself." Rose didn't care at all.
Bright answered the phone. Different from Rose's soft voice, he said deeply, "What did my father-in-law want call me for?"
Since Chandler hadn't known that Rose was not his daughter, Bright still called him father-in-law. After all he had raised Rose. Even though he was not Rose's real father, he might be regarded as her
stepfather.
"Bright, how are you and Rose?" Chandler asked gingerly.
He knew that Bright respected him so he would call him "father-in-law". He didn't call him "Dad" because he hadn't really accepted him yet.
"It's pretty good." Bright tapped his long finger on his knee. "I heard Rose came back to the Linder Family today. Is there something wrong?"
"Everything went well, except that she and her mother had some quarrels. I've already criticized her mother. Could you tell Rose not to be angry with her mother? It's not worth losing temper for trifles." Chandler was voluble. "Please comfort her."
"Of course." Bright agreed.
"Could you bring Rose and Doris back to the Linder Family for dinner this weekend? We haven't had a meal together as a family for a long time. Rose's Grandma misses you and wants to see Doris." Chandler extended an invitation to Bright.
Bright replied, "Sure, see you this weekend."
"Great." Chandler was overjoyed. "See you this weekend."
Bright hung up the phone and looked at Rose. "Mr. Linder asked us to come to the Linder Family for dinner this weekend. Are you all right with that?"
"It has nothing to do with me. Just do what you want." Rose felt that now that she knew the truth, there was no need to go there anymore.
"All right." Bright answered softly.
"What do you mean?"
"If Mrs. Lee isn't going, I won't go either."
"You promised him, and you're not going. Are you fooling him around? Does Mr. Lee like to break his promise?" Rose felt sorry for Chandler.
"Yes, I'm fooling him around as he pissed Mrs. Lee off." Bright leaned on the back of the sofa and draped his arm casually on the back of the sofa behind her. "I just wanted to vent the anger for you."
Rose turned to stare into his black eyes, and smiled. "You're bad."
"I never said I am a good man." Bright curled his lips and smiled wickedly.
