Without hesitation, Bright told her, "She had a fall at school today and hurt her leg and head. Perhaps
she feels painful now, so she misses her mother."
Bright was very distressed when he saw Doris hurt when he picked her up, but he didn't tell Rose at the
first time. He kept it a secret all the time, not wanting to disturb Rose's ten-year reunion party.
Doris was in a bad mood today. She was crying and asking for her mother. So he had no choice but to
call Rose.
Rose's heart twitched as she heard it and she could imagine Doris's crying her heart out.
"Good, I'll be back." Now that Rose knew Doris was hurt, all she though was her daughter. She wanted
to see how her daughter was doing, and she couldn't focus on the reunion.
Anyway, she had met the teachers and the classmates and had done what she should do. The
teachers had left, so it didn't matter if she left now.
"The chauffeur is waiting for you at the clubhouse." Bright explained again that he was afraid she might
make a mistake and could not find the hospital.
"Okay, I'll go tell Nora." Rose put away her cell phone, turned and pushed the door open.
She walked over to Nora, leaned over and whispered a few words in her ear.
Nora kept nodding. "Go ahead. I'll see Doris later."
"Well." Rose picked up her bag and left.
Rose hurried to the clubhouse door, where a black Bentley was waiting for her. The Bentley was like a
graceful cheetah slumbering in the darkness.
When the driver saw Rose coming out, he pulled open the car and Rose got in.
The driver quickly got around the car, got in, started the car and drove away from the No. 8 club.
There were fewer cars on the road at this time, so they soon arrived at the central hospital.
Rose was led quickly to Doris's room by the driver.
"Mom is coming soon," Bright said softly to Doris. "Don't cry, or your eyes will swell up and you'll look
ugly."
Doris kept crying.
Rose pushed the door open and came to Doris's side. "Doris, Mom is here."
"Mom, I miss you, and I want you to stay with me." Doris cried harder when she saw Rose coming.
"Mom will be with you and I will not go anywhere." Rose looked at blood-stained gauze on Doris's
forehead, and her heart clenched.
"Does it still hurt?" Rose reached over and stroked Doris's head, her fingertips trembling.
"Yes." Doris was anesthetized, and she would feel more painful when the drug effect disappeared.
"Mom, I have three stitches here. Will I look ugly?"
"No, you are still the prettiest little princess in Mommy and Daddy's eyes." Rose shook her head and
smiled.
"Dad will get the best doctor to treat you and you won't have a scar." Bright added.
"Really? Am I really not going to get ugly?" Doris, tears in her eyes, was skeptical.
"Of course." Bright promised. "Don't you believe Dad?"
"But I'm afraid..." Doris pressed her lips together.
Rose squeezed Doris's hand tightly. "Doris, it's not how beautiful or ugly a person is that matters.
Beautiful people will be beautiful when they are kind-hearted. The most beautiful people in the world
are the ones with the best of hearts."
Rose didn't want Doris to be superficial and thought that physical beauty was the most important thing.
"But if I become ugly, I'm afraid Brother Dougie won't like me." Doris said in a humbled voice.
"So that's what you care about." Rose reached out and touched Doris's hair.
"Doris, you are my daughter. If someone dares to look down on you, Dad would never let him go."
Bright said in a dozing voice.
"How can you say that?" Rose tugged at Bright's clothes. She didn't agree with Bright. "Don't listen to
what your father said."
"Am I wrong? My daughter doesn't have to worry too much. Just be yourself, Doris." Bright thought he
was right.
"Now listen to me." Rose stopped Bright from saying, "Honey, if you're worried about becoming ugly
and Brother Dougie doesn't like you, then that means your Brother Dougie is just a shallow guy who
only cares about one's look."
"A really good person will not care about these external things. Besides, it's just a small wound. If he is
such a person, then we can also cut the loss in time because such a person is not worth our love."
"Of course, baby, I don't think Dougie would be such a shallow person. If you think of him like this, it will
be an insult to him and not confident in yourself. Since you choose to be his fan, then you should trust
your own vision. Mom believes in your vision and Dougie's character."
"Well, I'm sure Brother Dougie won't be that kind of man, and I believe my vision." Doris smiled again
as she heard Rose say this.
"That's right." Rose tucked Doris in. "Then have a good rest. Mother is here with you."
"Daddy is with you, too," said Bright.
Doris nodded, glanced at Rose and Bright, then closed her eyes and went to sleep.
Rose waited until Doris was asleep, so she took Bright aside and scolded him. "Don't infuse such
thoughts in Doris's mind. It's not good for her."
"You can't let your child enjoy everything you have, or you will spoil her. I don't want Doris to rely on us
and know nothing," Rose warned Bright with a serious look, "I can do anything you want, but I have to
do what I want with Doris."
Bright clasped Rose's waist and said, "OK, OK, I will listen to whatever you say."
"This is very serious. I'm not joking with you." said Rose again.
"Yes." Bright was also serious.
"When I educate Doris in the future, you shouldn't interrupt, and you can't defend her and infuse the
wrong thought in her mind." Rose made clear the rule. "If you make a mistake, go sleep in the guest
room."
"In the guest room? You can't be so cruel to me." Bright was surprised. That was a rather severe
punishment.
"I have to, or you won't keep that in mind." Rose had made up her mind.
Bright was speechless.
"Think about it yourself."
Rose shook off his hand and turned back to Doris.
Bright went to fetch a shawl for her and wrapped her tightly in her arms from behind.
