Chapter 73: Shirley Thomas’s Nostalgia
Shirley was startled. Both of them knew well who this guy was that he was referring to.
She pursed her lips and said, “Well, I have seen him, and I’m his personal psychiatrist now.”
“Then does he know about the children?” Kevin continued to ask.
Back then, Mildred saved her, and Kevin had done the plastic surgery for her.
Kevin was an excellent doctor, involving in psychology, cosmetic surgery, and also cardiology. It could
be said that he was an all-rounder when it came to medicine.
Kevin was present when Shirley talked about her own story. Kevin sympathised with her and treated
her with more care than any other patient. And the two eventually became good friends.
Kevin discovered that Shirley had a great talent for perfumery, so he introduced her to his master,
becoming his junior.
Shirley returned in a heavy tone, “Not sure yet. But given his ingenuity, he might find out very soon.”
“Do you want the kids to come back to him? If you want to, just tell him. If you don’t want to… I can
help you!”
When Kevin finished talking, Shirley’s hand holding the steering wheel clenched tightly.
Kevin was different from Mildred. He wouldn’t advise her to stay by Bryan Moore’s side, nor advised
her to leave this man too. Kevin respected her position and supported her no matter what she did.
Now that Kevin was asking her this, she was out of her depth and at a loss for words.
“Then let’s talk about it when we meet.” Kevin said gently, “Stay focused while driving, and stay away
from vans.”
“Alright.” Shirley hung up first.
The two kids had already gone to kindergarten when she got back to the Spennor Residence. Mildred
immediately came out of the villa when she saw Shirley return in her car.
As soon as Shirley got out of the car, Mildred went forward with a smile on her face and grabbed
Shirley’s arm, saying, “Shirley, Kevin is back. We’ll have a get-together at Phoenix Restaurant tonight.”
“I know. Kevin just called me.”
Mildred was beaming, pulling Shirley’s arm, and said, “Come in quickly and see what should I wear
tonight.”
Shirley chuckled and followed her back to the villa.
The wardrobe was full of the latest season clothes. Mildred took out several sets of long dresses and
fiddled with them on Shirley, “Shirley, you have a fair skin tone, and this colour suits you well.
Moreover, this is also a parent-child outfit. There are two sets of male and female baby outfits. Then
you can wear this with the two little ones.”
Shirley took it, glancing at the clothes, and sneered, “Mildred, you’re such an easy-going person and
why would you become a wimp when meeting someone you like?”
As Kevin came back, the other man was bound to return.
At first, when Shirley saw Mildred’s reaction, she thought that Mildred fancied Kevin. But then she
realised that Mildred was just fascinated with Kevin’s young and handsome assistant.
Mildred slowed down her movements, furrowing her brows, “What about yourself? Bryan treats you
quite well too. Aren’t you wimped out too?”
“How can you compare yourself to my affairs? You knew how I get through it!” Shirley was melancholy
and distressed when mentioning Bryan.
Bryan’s antics over the past two days had annoyed her. Shirley had too many concerns about him. First
of all, the Moore family was big and complicated. Although she knew that Bryan no longer had a
mother, and Madame Moore could accept her two children, what about the other elders of the Moore
family?
It wasn’t scary that a person to talk about her, but not that a group of people. And in the end, it was her
children who suffered.
Shirley had known Bryan well this month. In the Moore family, apart from Scarlett, who treated Bryan
well, she never saw anyone else from the Moore family came to the manor. And this showed that Bryan
was not getting along with other members of the Moore family.
Having a relationship was a matter for two people, but the marriage was a matter for two families!
Mildred held Shirley’s hands and said, “So have you known my difficulty now? My dad is the president
of a well-known hospital, while he’s just a man born from a normal family, and he worked very hard to
get his position now. Do you think if I go to him and tell him that I like him, would it scare him away? I All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
guess… he won’t even dare to speak to me anymore and avoid me whenever I come close.”
She didn’t know much about Kevin’s assistant, as his presence was very low, just knew that he was
talented in cosmetic surgery.
He was a man of few words but very handsome. No wonder Mildred could be fascinated with him for
years.
“So, are you going to keep crushing on him?” Shirley raised an eyebrow as she reached out to pinch
Mildred’s cheek.
Mildred blushed with embarrassment, wrapping her arms around Shirley’s waist and her face on
Shirley’s shoulder, “Let me think about it.”
“You really don’t look like a girl who grew up in the West.” Anyway, under Shirley’s impression, Western
girls were more open-minded, whereas they loved when they liked it and let go when they didn’t.
Mildred let go of Shirley, turned around, and continued choosing her dress, “Yep. I should have a try
once. If it fails, I’ll drop the idea forever.”
Shirley chuckled, and she took away two sets of children’s clothes for the two little ones to put on after
school.
It was almost five in the afternoon when Daisy walked in from the outside with the two kids.
Shirley was on the second floor, and she could hear Emma’s calling, “Mommy, mommy, we’re back…”
Shirley put down the book, got up, and pushed open the office door, heading to the ground floor.
Emma was already halfway up the stairs, coming up step by step. Shirley walked down quickly and
picked her up, “Darling, Kevin is back.”
Jacob, who was just behind her, looked up, blinking and smiling with joy, “Mommy, does Daddy Mitchell
really come back?”
Shirley had wanted to correct the name Daddy Mitchell, but the two kids just wouldn’t change it. So, in
the end, Shirley didn’t bother with it anymore.
Emma was dancing with joy and said, “Hooray, Daddy Mitchell is back. Mommy, let Daddy Mitchell
come and stay with us at the Spennor Residence. I want to play with Daddy Mitchell.”
Shirley carried Emma up the stairs and put her down when they got to the second floor. Shirley took
Emma’s schoolbag off her back and placed it on the table.
Jacob approached with a disgusted look on his face, “Daddy Mitchell doesn’t like kids who cry all the
time.”
“Who’s crying?” Emma blinked her big eyes.
“Who else? You cried for not being able to snatch other’s things in kindergarten.” Jacob raised his
eyebrows and said.
Emma blew her top, and she rushed at Jacob, tickling him.
Shirley held her forehead and said with a straight face, “Emma, Jacob, stop it.”
The two little ones were shocked, and they stopped, standing still.
Shirley frowned as she asked, “Emma, are you snapping things from your friend again?”
“Mommy, I played it first and he ran over to grab it from me. But, Jacob was awesome. He knocked
down his castle, and then he cried too.” Emma said smugly.
Shirley looked strained hearing this, and she said out, “Jacob Thomas.”
Jacob shrugged his shoulders and said with a stinky face, “We just can’t lose.”
Saying it, Jacob then ran into Mildred’s room.
Shirley didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as she stared in the direction the little one had
fled…
