The time for Cruz to appear was too evident.
He came to the Lee family not for the reason he gave, but to make the Lee family know Rose was the
other woman who destroyed Bright's marriage and then took advantage of the seniors in the Lee family
to give her a lesson.
However, they didn't know she was Mrs. Lee, not the other woman.
He thought himself clever, but he just lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet.
"Of course it's not a coincidence at all." Bright was clear in his mind, "No one else knows we're couples.
Those who know we have relations only think you're my lover and the number is small."
"I think so as well. I'm sure they are either Sophie or Timothy." She fixed the range. Only they were
afraid she would gain the power because of Bright so they wanted to deal a blow to her.
"How do you wanna deal with it?" What Bright asked Rose was what she thought. She wanted to find
who wanted to frame her.
"Let's turn the trick to his own use." Rose raised her lips and an idea came to her mind, "Since they
think I'm the other woman, then let me be the other woman. But Mr. Lee, will you please give the
performance with me?"
"Sure. I'll follow your instruction." Brght's voice sounded spoiling, "Tell me your scheme."
"Ok. After returning to City H…" Rose gave a general introduction about the scheme in her mind.
……
The breakfast in the Lee family was rich and nutritious. It was cooked by the professional chef and
contained both Chinese and western cuisine, so the breakfast dazzled people's eyes and made people
feel difficult to choose from.
Bright gave a bowl of Egg and Pork Congee to Rose and picked the Pyramid Dumplings and Steamed
Buns.
Rose preferred the Chinese cuisine. He figured it out after the first time she took him to have breakfast
in Happy Folk Dim Sum.
Rose thought he was terrifically careful as he knew her preference.
"Many thanks." Rose ate the Congee and the taste was perfect, "Nice."
"Then have more." He also gave himself a bow of Congee. He had the Chinese cuisine with her.
"Rose, did you sleep well last night? Do you feel comfortable staying here?" Hallie asked with care.
"I've got used to my bed, but the bed is comfortable, so I didn't wake up until dawn. Thank you for your
care, auntie."Rose replied candidly.
"It's weekend. Since you're here, why not ask Bright to show you around here? Relax yourself." Hallie
passed the toaster with ketchup to Francis, "Do you think so, darling?"
"Exactly. However busy you're, you should accompany each other." Francis bit the toaster and chewed,
"It's not a good idea that you separate in two different places."
"Dad, if I have free time, I'll visit Rose, vice versa. It's fine." Bright was afraid Francis would give Rose a
rough ride.
"It's fine in a short period, but can you live like this all your life?" Francis looked up at Bright, "If you
keep this life style, when can you give birth to a kid for the Lee family?"
"Eh-hem……" Rose who was eating congee with her head lowered was choked. She immediately
covered her mouth and turned her face away.
Bright gave the paper tissue to her and patted on her back, "Drink some water."
Rose took the water on the table and got relieved after drinking it. She shook her head to him to signal
she was right.
"Dad, why do you say so during meal time?" Of course Bright tried to protect Rose.
"AS I have started the topic, I'll say more." Francis wiped his mouth with a napkin. His eyesight focused
on Rose, "Rose, you're Bright's wife. As the daughter-in-law of the Lee family, you have to burden more
than ordinary families. The Lee family has stayed in City J for hundreds of years and Bright's is living
and working here. Since you've married him, you should understand it."
"Dad, we'll deal with it ourselves. Don't talk too much, please." Bright understood what his father
wanted to express.
"Shut up!" Francis scolded him.
Rose also stretched out her hand and held Bright's, comforting him, "Dad, listen to me please."
Bright held hers and twisted his eyebrows. He didn't understand why she looked for unhappiness.
"Our family is not that old-fashioned. We won't ask you to quit work and stay at home. You can have
you own career as well as freedom. But you need to pay when you gain. Also the family needs your
careful management. I hope you can move here. I hope you can live and work here. You and Bright
can look after each other in this way and have your own home. We won't disturb you. Your occasional
visit is okay."
"Rose, as a father, I don't think I've demand much. I know you're sensible and I'm sure you can
understand me."
Francis' words were very pertinent and he didn't try to confine her with his authority.
His point stood at "home", hoping they could get along.
It was quite normal that the couples who lived in separate places would have more problems.
"Dad, I'll give you a reply after serious consideration." Rose could make a decision immediately.
"Okay." Francis gave her time.
After breakfast, Francis went to play tennis with his good friends and Bright took Rose away. Zoe tore
the toaster in her hands, saying in a dissatisfied tone, "How dared she say she needed time for
consideration? It was God's blessing that she could marry my brother. How could she be so arrogant? I
really think she doesn't deserve my brother."
"You're not brother. How can you know she doesn't deserve him?" Stefan drank up the milk, "marriage
is like water. Only those who are in marriage know it. Don't make irresponsible remarks. She is your
sister-in-law and we should not talk about her behind her back."
"Stephan, which side are you on? She doesn't deserve him at all!" Zoe stuck up for Bright.
"It's up to brother rather than you." Stephan reminded her.
"She doesn't love him at all. If she loved him, she would stay with him for nearly a whole day. Brother
will understand it one day and you'll know you're wrong." Zoe insisted.
"Rose is not that kind of woman." Stefan was clear in mind.
"Mum, you see, he is always against me." Zoe complained to Hallie.
"She's your sister-in-law, not a stranger. Don't say such things anymore, or your brother will be
unhappy and your Dad will mind it as well." Hallie looked at her daughter who looked worried, "It's your
brother's own business, so you'd better not interfere. Focus on study, please."
"Mum, I wanna practise internship in Marley's company as an assistant. Would you please discuss it
with Dad?" Zoe had this idea in mind for a long time.
"I'll try." Hallie replied, "But you need to be calmer."
