Come on Daddy! Chapter 252 She Didn't Want to Make It Hard for Her Dad

Bright asked Bonnie, a little nervously.

When Lina called him yesterday afternoon, she didn't say anything about them coming to the office to
see him.

He had a hunch that Lina and Zoe had something to do with Doris's injury, but at the same time, he
hoped that it had nothing to do with them, otherwise...

"Miss Doris was fine when I went in." Bonnie told all she knew, hoping that it might be of some help to
Doris's injury.

"Did you hear them talk to each other, or say anything?" Bright remembered how Lina and Doris had
traded barbs when they first met in his office.

He was afraid that in his absence there might be some conflict between them that might lead to some
accident.

But Doris had admitted that she fell accidentally, so it had nothing to do with Lina and Zoe. But why
was he still so nervous?

"No. I didn't stay long in the office." so she had no time to catch anything.

"Good." Bright thought he should ask Doris or Lina and Zoe in person. "If you think of anything else,
just let me or Bill know."

Bright turned to leave, but then he stopped and looked at Bonnie, "You have done well. You have a
sense of justice, and you deserve a promotion and a pay raise."

"Thank you, President. As a member of the HY Group it's my job to be honest." Bonnie was happy, "but
I am still in the internship."



"That's all right, stay after the internship, and I'll ask Secretary Masie to give you a good position at a
higher salary than any of the other full secretaries. I want everyone to know that there are rewards and
punishments. Trying to play tricks is not going to work." Bright had his hand in the pocket and strode
away.

"Thank you, President." Bonnie bowed at Bright.

She did not hope to stay in HY Group, because her degree was not the best, but she worked very hard
and wanted to stay in HY Group.

She didn't expect that the chance had come. She was so delight!

The others were very envious of Bonnie having this chance.

God always gave opportunities to people who were waiting for them.

And Jessie was naturally resentful when she was fired. If Bonnie hadn't had told the truth to president,
she would not have been fired.

Bright went back to the office, took care of some urgent things, and then went to the hospital.

Doris was having an intravenous drip right now. She was in bed, and the nurse was reading a
children's story book with her.

Doris saw Bright coming and her eyes lit up, "Dad, aren't you at work? What are you doing here? Are
you worried about me? You don't have to worry about me. I'm as good as gold and I'm not afraid of
pain. Have you forgotten that I am a tough girl?"

Doris spoke in a row, which made Bright laugh.

When the nurses saw Bright was here, they all left the room, leaving the room for them.



Bright strode over and sat down in a chair. "Yes, you look much better now, or there wouldn't be so
much talk."

"Dad, you make fun of me." Doris pursed her lips in disapproval.

"Doris, I have something to ask you. Be honest with me." Bright's eyes meet Doris's.

"Yes." Doris nodded.

"Did anyone else come by while you were staying in my office yesterday?"

Doris paused for a second, then shook her head.

"Really?" Bright asked her again.

"No one came by." She lowered her eyes slightly, not looking directly into Bright's eyes.

"Doris, it's not right to tell lies." Bright couldn't understand that Doris didn't like Lina, but she lied about
not having seen her. "There are so many people in the company, there would be someone who saw
them," he said.

Doris dropped her head even lower. "I'm sorry, dad. I lied. When I was in the office, aunt Kim and your
sister dropped by."

"You've seen them, and you said you didn't like the aunt. Why did you say you didn't see them? Why
lie?" Bright frowned, but he said gently, "Can you tell dad why?"

"Dad... I..." Doris pressed her lips together and hesitated.

"Daddy wants to hear the truth. Daddy wants Doris to be an honest child." Bright's big hands rested
lightly on her small shoulders. "I hope I can be proud of my baby."



Doris looked into Bright's deep, gentle eyes and nodded.

"I didn't mean to lie. I didn't tell you because I didn't want to make it hard for you." Doris was just trying
to tell a white lie.

"Sometimes a white lie is a good one, but it's also a lie, got it?" Bright hoped Doris didn't tell lies, even it
was a white lie. "But why would it be hard for dad? Did they have anything to do with your injury? That's
why you kept it a secret?"

What a sensible child she was to say that she did not want her dad to worry about her, especially it was
the one she didn't like.

"Father, you are as clever as mother said. Nothing can hide from you." Doris knew that she could not
keep it a secret, so she told the whole story. "They were both your sisters, and I was hurt by them. It
would have been very difficult for you to deal with the matter, so I hid it from you."

"My baby is so kind. You indeed make me proud. But we don't need to be generous and kind to those
who hurt you. You're a kid, and you just need to protect yourself." Bright looked at the wound on Doris's
forehead and could not calm down when he realized that it was caused by two adults.

"Dad, don't blame them, I am also partly responsible for my injury."

Doris held Bright's sleeve in her little hand and begged him, "I'm all right now. Just save the trouble."

"Doris, there's no excuse for a child making a mistake, let alone two adults."

Everyone has to pay for what they did." Bright comforted Doris.

"But..."



"Are you afraid grandpa will know it?" Bright guessed Doris's mind. "Grandpa is old, but he knows the
difference between right and wrong. You have nothing to worry about."

"Dad, grandpa... He won't like me, will he?" Doris was really scared.

"Why do you ask that?" Bright saw the loss in Doris's eyes. "Did they both say that?"

"Because I am not father's real daughter, not the real child of the Lee family, my grandfather will not like
me." Doris felt sad. "I didn't think it made any difference that I wasn't your real daughter, but now how I
wish I was your real daughter, the daughter by blood... I don't want to be separated from dad. I love
dad."
