Chapter 55
Unexpectedly, Roderick smiled at Enzo.
Roderick said, “Mela agreed to the marriage. From now on, you are my brother–in- law.”
Melanie thought, ‘What?‘”
Melanie was dumbfounded.
She wondered when she ever agreed to it.
Melanie was furious about what Roderick just said.
She said, “Your mission is completed. You can leave now!”
Roderick said, sounding greatly aggrieved, “Mela, I just arrived here. Are you sure. you want me to leave?”
Melanie thought, ‘Damn it!
‘He not only has an attractive face but also has an attractive voice!”
Melanie tried to calm down. She couldn’t believe it!
Melanie thought, ‘How could this man, who always looks aloof, talk to me like a spoiled child and pretend to look aggrieved?
‘And his voice just now was attractive!”
As soon as Ethan and Elias heard Melanie asking Roderick to leave, they became upset. They stood at Roderick’s sides and grabbed his hands.
Ethan said, “Mommy, please let Daddy stay here for a bit longer! Daddy must be tired after driving us home. Why don’t you let him get some rest here?”
Ethan hugged Roderick and blinked, with his beautiful bright eyes glittering, and kept giving puppy dog eyes to Melanie.
Seeing that Ethan dared to do this for Roderick, Melanie got angry.
Melanie thought, ‘Ethan, how dare you! I haven’t punished you for running around everywhere yet!‘
Melanie said, “I asked him to go back because he’s busy. Ethan, be a good boy and stop pestering him.”
Ethan was so smart that he knew the subtext of Melanie’s words.
He lowered his head and looked up again, with tears in his eyes.
Ethan said, “Daddy, you don’t want to stay here with me?”
Roderick said, “Daddy is not busy at all. I want to be with you every moment!”
Roderick carried Ethan in his arms with a smile and decided not to leave no matter what Melanie said.
Melanie was so angry that she stammered, “You, you two…”
She should have known that Roderick wouldn’t be kicked out very easily once he walked through the door.
Enzo said, “Mela, let Mr. Lambert stay if he really wants to. Let’s have a talk in the study!”
As he spoke, he gave Roderick an encouraging look.
It made Roderick overjoyed.
Ethan and Elias were immediately happy knowing that Roderick could
there.
The two kids took Roderick’s hands and showed him the room they were going to sleep in tonight.
Elias said, “Daddy, can you sleep with us tonight?”
Roderick said, “Of course, I want to sleep with you and read bedtime stories to you. and Ethan.”
Roderick suddenly felt a little upset.
He added, “But I’m not sure if your mommy will let me stay.”
Hearing this, Elias patted his chest.
Elias said, “Daddy, don’t worry. I’ll handle it. I’m Mommy’s favorite! I will definitely make Daddy stay!”
Roderick’s eyes lit up and he kissed Elias. “Okay, I’ll leave it to you. Daddy won’t leave you tonight. I will stay. I’ll read bedtime stories to you two and sleep with you, okay?”
Elias nodded. “Okay.”
At that moment, Melanie, who was talking to Enzo in the study, had no idea that her sons were planning to betray her.
Enzo said, “Melanie, that man…”
Almost as soon as Enzo opened his mouth, Melanie hurriedly interrupted him. “Enzo, can you stop talking about him?”
“What’s wrong?” Enzo was confused. “I just want to ask you how he is to Elias and Ethan. Why…” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Melanie coughed drily in embarrassment.
Melanie said, “What else would he do? He knows nothing but spoils Ethan and Elias. The children can totally live without me now!”
Enzo couldn’t help laughing, “It looks like you really resent him!”
Seeing that Melanie looked angry and silent, Enzo looked her up and down.
Enzo said, “Now, it seems that you…”
Melanie glared at Enzo with a warning look. “What?”
Enzo laughed knowingly, “Nothing. Hahaha!”
He said, “I think you two are a perfect match. Don’t try to hide it if you love him!”
Melanie flushed and said angrily, “What are you talking about? How can I love him?”
