Chapter 62: Mildred’s Return to the Country
A startled Sabina reached out and took her phone from George, adjusting her voice and emotions, she
asked, “Why did Bryan suddenly ask me out for lunch?”
“Mr. Moore said that he should be treating you to lunch, please prepare yourself Miss Thomas, Mr.
Moore will send someone over to pick you up tomorrow.” Jordan’s voice was especially calm.
Sabina secretly let out a sigh of relief, and replied “Alright.”
Both of them hung up at the same time.
George took two steps forward and said, “It was Jordan on the phone just now.”
“Yes, it was Jordan just now on the phone informing me that Bryan would like to ask me for lunch at
Phoenix Restaurant tomorrow. Mum, looks like it was just a false alarm, Bryan had not been affected
by the rumors on the internet. What’s more, he’s such a busy person, why would he have time to even
take notice of all this gossip going online.” Hearing Jordan’s calm and collected voice, she assumed
that Bryan was purely asking her out for a meal.
Did this mean that their relationship had been repaired since what happened last night? If she could
continue having a sexual relationship with him, didn’t it mean…
“Yes, yes, yes, Moore Group has so many documents for him to approve every day, how would he
have time to care about what is going on in the internet. It is already so late, and he still remembers to
get Jordan to call you, this means… he hasn’t forgotten about what happened between you guys.”
Olivia replied happily while gently stroking Sabina’s face.
George frowned, and questioned confusedly, “What happened between you guys did he not forget?”
Sabina’s face changed slightly, she couldn’t let George know that she had secretly spiked Bryan’s
drinks.
That year, when Shirley committed suicide by drowning in the sea, George almost killed her when he
found out she had something to do with it.
Olivia patted Sabina’s shoulders and said, “Go back to your room and rest early, dress up prettier
tomorrow for your date.”
“Alright, mum.” Sabina gave a slight nod, and hastily got up from the sofa and went up to the second
floor.
George called her from the back, but she had already left quickly.
Hmph, still thinking about Shirley even at this time, how good is she actually?
If he really cared about his daughter, why did he send her back to the village to be taken care of by her
grandparents, men are so pretentious.
…
The second day at dawn, Shirley was woken up by a series of urgent calls.
Groggily she opened her eyes, and reached out to take a look at her phone. It was Mildred calling.
It was only 7 in the morning, why was Mildred so early?
She picked up her phone, and said, “Hi.”
Mildred gave a giggle, and asked, “Guess where am I now?”
Shirley held her neck and sat up, then took away the phone to take a look, and asked, “Don’t tell me
you’ve returned to the country?”
It was only a casual question, but she didn’t expect Mildred to reply, “Yes.”
“But I am at layover now, I’ll reach City L in two hours, I’ll get Cameron to pick me up later.”
Shirley shivered a little in surprise. She immediately tossed her blanket to a side and got down from her
bed.
She scratched her head while heading to the bathroom, “Why didn’t you mention that you were coming
back yesterday night?”
“I wanted to give you a huge surprise.” After saying that, Mildred gave a laugh, “I’m switching off my
phone now, see you in two hours at City L’s airport.”
“Alright.” Shirley hung up the phone and immediately got to washing up.
It’s the weekend today, the two kids didn’t have to go to the nursery. After changing, Shirley went to the
kids’ room to wake them up.
When she told them that Aunt Mildred was coming back, the two kids waved their hands happily and
said that they wanted to go pick Mildred up too.
After breakfast, Shirley left Cameron to recuperate in the villa, brought the two kids and headed to the
airport.
At 9:20 a.m., Exit T.
A woman dressed in black, wearing a pair of sunglasses, with a luggage in hand, walked out slowly.
She had a head of Western blonde hair, her skin was as fair as snow, her silhouette tall and slim.
Together with what she was wearing today, she gave off a secretive aura.
Emma who was clinging on to the railings, suddenly reached out her hands and pointed at the woman
in black, and shouted, “Aunt Mildred, Aunt Mildred…”
Shirley looked over to where the little one was shouting towards, and indeed saw a familiar silhouette.
Mildred took down her sunglasses and waved towards their direction. Dragging her heavy luggage, she
jogged quickly towards them.
Holding the hands of her two children, Shirley walked towards her.
The stuff that was on top of Mildred’s luggage suddenly scattered on the ground. Helplessly she
stopped in her tracks, and shot an innocent look at Shirley.
Shirley gave a light laugh and walked over quickly, “Look at you, what are you running for, we won’t run
away.”
“That’s because I miss you guys.” Mildred looked at them and walked over to give Shirley a hug,
patting her on the back comfortingly.
Shirley also hugged her tightly, her face showed a happy smile, “Alright, don’t you still want your stuff?”
“Of course I do, those are things I brought back for my two little babies.” Mildred quickly let go of her
hands, when she lowered her head and started preparing to pick up her stuff, she noticed the two little
kids were already picking up her stuff.
She gave a little laugh, knelt down, opened her arms and said, “Come, give Aunt Mildred a hug.”
Jacob was extremely reluctant.
Emma on the other hand leaped over, hugged Mildred’s neck, and said sweetly in her ears, “Aunt
Mildred, I missed you so much, is it because I miss you every day that’s why you came back.”
Humored by this little kid, Mildred gave a laugh. While pinching Emma’s cheeks, she said, “Where did
you inherit this sweet mouth from?”
“Everyone other than Aunt Mildred!”
“This kid.” Using her forefinger, Mildred pinched Emma’s high nose bridge, raised her head and saw
Jacob standing at the side, “Hey, my little friend Jacob, do you really not want a hug from Aunt Mildred?
Aunt Mildred bought your favorite toys, it’s already in my luggage.”
Jacob’s eyes sparkled, and gave a glance at Mildred’s luggage, with raised eyebrows he said, “I am not
swayed by riches.”
“Alright then, I’ll throw it away.”
“Don’t do that.” Jacob’s handsome face changed, and he immediately pounced towards Mildred and
hugged her neck.
Mildred gave a giggle, and turned her face towards him, “then give Aunt Mildred a kiss.”
“Men and women shouldn’t be too intimate.”
“Then I’ll throw away everything.”
“However, I am only five so I am just a kid.” Jacob frowned and gave Mildred a reluctant kiss.
Shirley couldn’t help but laugh.
Jacob’s reluctant and disdainful look, was incredibly similar to his father.
“Alright then, I’ll bring you back to the villa to freshen up. After that I’ll bring you out for lunch, I’ll ask
Aunt not to cook today. I heard the food at Phoenix Restaurant isn’t too bad. I’ve already made a
reservation, I’m sure you’ll like the food there.”
Shirley said with a face full of smiles, helping Mildred to pull her luggage.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Mildred held the kids’ hands, and replied easily, “You decide.”
