Come on Daddy! Chapter 264 You Were the Woman from Five Years Ago

Bright once again showed them the door. Francis knew that Bright was still angry, so he did not care
about Bright's attitude towards him or how embarrassed he felt in front of his son.

This time he was really wrong and owed too much to his grandson.

"Then we'll be taking our leave." Francis stood up again.

"Dad and Aunt Hallie, why don't you take for the night? You need a room to stay in. Don't tell me you
are thinking of staying at a hotel," Rose persuaded them.

"Grandpa and grandma, stay here," Doris also said. She then said to Bright, "Dad, say something."

"I'm going upstairs." Bright didn't reply to Doris. He only stood up, put his hands casually into his
pockets, and headed for the stairs.

"Dad, Aunt Hallie, Bright didn't say anything, which means he agreed. Just stay here. Don't make
things difficult for yourselves. Living at home is the most comfortable."

Rose watched Bright's tall and straight figure as he left. "He cares about his reputation. Don't mind
him."

"Grandpa, grandma, stay and spend some time with me." Doris pulled them.

Francis and Hallie could not resist their enthusiasm, so they agreed.

The most embarrassed one was Lina, who was someone Bright, Doris, and Rose welcomed the least,
so she had no reason to continue staying there.

"Father Lee, Aunt Hallie, then I'll be taking my leave." Lina left immediately after she spoke.



Francis wanted to ask her to stay, but Hallie persuaded him, "Lina has been in City H for a while. She
probably booked a hotel already."

"Doris, you stay with grandpa and grandma while I go upstairs and tidy up the room for them." Rose
gave Doris a task and went upstairs.

Rose went to the master bedroom to fetch the duvet cover and bed sheet only to see Bright standing
beside the French windows.

She walked over and stood beside him. The cool night breeze blew her hair.

"Still angry?" Her voice blew into his ears.

"In your eyes, I am a very petty person." Bright held onto the fence and looked sideways at her.

Under the dim light, her eyes were as bright as stars, which were very charming.

"Dad and Aunt Hallie stayed." She started blushing because of his gaze.

"I know." The clear-cut features of Bright's face were even more obvious in the night, but they were
softened by the glimmer. "You have nothing else to say to me?"

"Doris is indeed your biological daughter. I kept it a secret for so many years. Sorry." Rose did not
mention the reason and only expressed her apology.

"Why are you hiding everything from me? Am I so unworthy of your trust?" Bright felt a little empty and
cold.

"I dared not say." Rose looked into the distance, watching the light in the middle of the night. "At that
time, I wasn't close to you. The Lee family has power while I was alone and had nothing but Doris. I



was afraid that once you knew Doris is your biological daughter, you would take her away from me at
all costs. This is why I never said it."

"Until later, our relationship developed. When I saw you treat Doris so well, I was in a dilemma from
keeping the secret. I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid to tell you. I was afraid that you wouldn't forgive
me because of my plot and that you would misunderstand me."

"So even until I knew that you gave birth to Doris to save Sky, you still didn't say that Doris' biological
father is me," Bright sighed lightly and said, "You worked so hard to hide it, but you should know that no
secret can remain hidden forever. It's just a matter of time before it's revealed."

"I never thought that the woman who schemed against me five years ago would be you. We couldn't
find the woman who entered my room and had a one-night stand with me before disappearing five
years ago until Sophie told the story about Doris."

"When Bill investigated your past, he found that there was an unexpected coincidence between you
and the woman from five years ago. All kinds of clues indicated that you might be the woman who
disappeared overnight five years ago... This is why I took Doris to do a paternity test."

"The result was as I expected. Doris' age and her blood type are proof that you are the woman from
five years ago!"

Bright clenched his hands into a fist, as if there was something stuck in his chest, making his breathing
a bit ragged.

"Haven't you doubted other women?" Rose asked quietly.

With Bright's identity, there was no way he only slept with her before!



"You think that I sleep with any women?" Bright's stern eyes were fixed on her. "Only you, stupid
woman!"

Shock flashed through Rose's pupils while she felt more apologetic.

"You went as far as sacrificing yourself, scheming against others, and using your child for a man! You
even won't let me reunite with my daughter! Rose, you are ruthless!"

Bright knew that he should not mind Rose's past because Sky was her fiancé at that time, so she
saved him out of instinct. But he just could not forgive her for scheming against him and keeping it a
secret from him for so long.

He actually envied Sky. Rose trusted him and loved him with all her heart. She would do anything for
him. It was obvious how important he was to her. The level of trust in their relationship paled in
comparison with what she shared with Sky.

Although he did not want her to be in danger because of him, he wanted that unconditional trust.

"I'll forget about you scheming against me. But you used my daughter's umbilical cord blood to save
that heartless man!"

"I'm sorry." Rose had nothing to say except sincere apologies.

She felt something caught in her throat and felt her eyes hurting as if they were scraped by the wind.
Tears formed in her eyes, stinging the corners of her eyes.

She turned her head, not wanting him to see her fragility.

"Apology not accepted." Bright gave in. "Think long and hard about how to compensate me."

"Okay." Rose suppressed the hoarseness in her voice. "I'll be making the bed for dad and auntie first."



Rose turned and fled. She was afraid that she would cry in front of him.

Rose picked up the duvet cover and bed sheet that she had just put on the bed and left to go to the
guest room.

She looked up, took a few deep breaths, and suppressed her tears. She really owed Bright too much,
and she could not ever pay him back.

She controlled her emotions and began to spread the sheets when Hallie walked over to help.

"Aunt Hallie, take a break. I'll do it."

"No, it's fine. It'll be done very quickly if I help you."

Then the two women worked together, and the bed was quickly made.

"Did you and Bright argue?" Hallie put the pillow into the pillowcase.

"No." Rose shook her head.

"I'm sorry about Zoe. Please bear with Bright. After all, he is under a lot of pressure," Hallie comforted
Rose.

"He's always been the one tolerating and forgiving me."

"That's good."
