"Where are you?" He asked his daughter in a comforting voice. He didn't want to upset Nicole. She
was his only way to Lola.
Nicole realized that her mommy had not come out from the bathroom yet. "I don't know. Mommy said
that we were at my uncle's." Actually, Nicole was really confused because she didn't see Joseph here.
Uncle? Maybe, Joseph?
"Did mom tell you when you were coming back here?"
"Yes. She told me that we would not go back tonight. We'll stay here." Lola opened the bathroom door
and walked out with a towel wrapped over her body.
Then she found Nicole holding her phone. Oh, God! She might be answering the phone and telling
everything to Harry.
She ran to grab the phone from Nicole's hand. Sure enough! It was Harry on the call! She was talking
to her father.
She immediately hung up and held her daughter on her lap. "Nicole, what did you tell your papa?"
This little fool. She hoped that she had not told Harry where they were right now.
Nicole thought for a while and shook her head, "Daddy asked when we would go back." She could only
remember the last sentence.
"Then what did you say?"
"I said we would not go back. You said that, right?" Her mom told her this, right?
Lola did not ask more. She went to another bedroom to get her clothes.
Lola took Nicole out for dinner and went back to Joseph's apartment afterwards.
She parked the car downstairs. When she was about to get her daughter off the car, a man came out
from the dark alley.
He slowly came closer to her. Half of Lola's body was in the car preparing to hold her daughter. She
could not see who was coming.
Then, a heavy and strong arm took her by the waist and lifted her out.
Just when Lola was about to scream, she inhaled a familiar smell.
Then she was held to his chest and sure enough it was him. How did he know where they were?
Nicole laughed secretly in the car when she saw her daddy holding her mommy.
"Sweetie." His deep, sensual voice rang sweetly in her ears. In an instant, Lola felt so seduced by
Harry.
Imagine that the man you loved was extremely handsome, and called you sweetie with a sexy gentle
voice. Wouldn't you feel dizzy? Wouldn't you be seduced?
"Hey! Let me go!" She twisted her body frantically to free herself from his arms.
"Good girl, stop it. Let's go home."
Home?
When Lola heard these words, she was stunned for a second. What beautiful words!
For a moment, she was touched, as if all the jealousy and anger were gone. For the first time in her life,
she felt like Nicole had finally got a complete family.
The night suddenly looked so beautiful as Lola and Harry embraced.
She looked up and found the man gazing at her lovingly. She nodded in pleasure.
Lola was taken to the car by Harry and sat beside Nicole.
He had driven here personally to pick up his wife and daughter.
Sitting on the driver's seat, he smiled when he saw the woman still in a daze through the rear view
mirror.
After a half way's drive, Lola realized that Harry had bewildered her by his beauty and charm. She was
supposed to be angry at him!
Back at the mansion, Harry took Nicole to the bathroom for her to have a bath while Lola lay on the bed
drowsily, waiting to tell her daughter some stories.
She didn't expect that she would forgive him so easily. She would not be that generous. She knew
herself.
When Harry went out and was leading Nicole to the bed, Lola was almost asleep already.
She did not wake up until Harry kissed her on the cheek.
Sitting next to her, Nicole smiled, and was delighted by what she saw.
Lola wrapped her arms around Nicole and covered themselves with the quilt. "Time for bed!"
Nicole closed her eyes obediently, and then secretly opened again, looking at her daddy behind her.
"Daddy, can you tell us a story? Please?"
Harry put down his bath towel, climbed onto the bed, picked up a story book and began to read the
story of the black cat sheriff.
While reading the story book, he was looking at Lola. Her eyes were really lovely.
Nicole fell asleep quickly. Lola softly withdrew her arm from under her.
Then she went to the bathroom to remove her makeup and freshen up.
Looking at her back, Harry did not worry anymore.
He put down the story book, tucked Nicole in and went out of bed too.
Lola washed her face in the bathroom and went back to the bedroom to change into her pajamas.
So when Harry saw Lola again, he saw a beauty with a perfect figure emphasized by a sky blue
cheongsam and beautiful long hair.
He held her to his chest and smelled the fragrance of her hair as he led her to the dressing room.
Lola tried to push him but he continued to hold her still. He was too strong.
"Harry, I'm going to change my clothes. You should go back to your study."
Harry kissed her on the forehead, lifted her to his chest again and went out of the bedroom.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and did not intend to make it easy on him. "Harry, don't expect
that I'll forgive you because of your sweetness tonight."
How could she forgive him? He left her alone and went to celebrate his mother's birthday with another
woman. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She felt alone and that nobody
cared about her feelings even before marriage. Things must get worse after marriage, then.
Harry placed her at the door of the room, holding her cheek with his hands and letting her look at him.
"How about not getting angry? Can you do that for me?"
"No!" Her lips pouted and her eyes reddened in disgust.
Looking at her grievances, Harry couldn't help laughing. He pinned her against the wall with his arms
on her sides.
"Don't you know where my heart is?" He stared at her and said in a surprisingly serious tone.
She could never refuse his affection. She loved him too much. Lola was suffocated for a moment. Of
course she could feel his love for her. There was no denying that.
Noticing her silence, he continued to say, "I love you, Lola Li!"
…
This man was really good at sweet words.
What else could she say when most of her anger had already went away.
"Close your eyes." He took her by the hand and went to the room beside them.
Lola looked at him doubtfully, but closed her eyes obediently.
The door was opened and she heard the sound of a pushing button.
"Open your eyes." She was surprised and shocked to see what was in front of her.
The huge room was empty except for a white piano in the middle. A line of candle-like lamps were lying
on the piano, all glittering with faint red light.
There were also pictures of different sizes on the wallpaper. They were surrounded by colorful bulbs.
At that very moment, the room was lit up by the colorful bulbs instead of the headlamp.
Right in front of them, on the French windows, was a heart shaped by pink flashing bulbs that spelled,
"I Love You My Lola."
She looked at the pictures carefully and found out that most of them were taken in Canada. There were
pictures of landscapes, her selfies and his too.
On the other side, there were photos of them and Nicole. It was the day when they went to Echo Bay,
in front of Li Manor.
Harry was cuddling Nicole in the picture and was holding her around her shoulders. And in one picture,
Harry was leaning down and kissing her. From these angles, the only person who could take these
pictures was Joseph. This was really a pleasant surprise.
