Come on Daddy!

Chapter 265 You Are Always Welcomed

Chapter 265 You Are Always Welcomed

Rose woke up early the next morning to make a lavish breakfast with the maid.

She heard from Hallie that Francis liked Chinese-style breakfasts, so she made it according to his preference.

When Francis and Hallie saw such a lavish breakfast in the dining room, Francis praised Rose, "Rose, thank you. You are very considerate."

"Dad, make yourself at home." Rose picked up a dumpling for him and put it on the plate in front of him. "Give it a try and let me know if it's to your liking."

"Okay." Francis picked it up and brought it to his mouth to take a bite. He chewed slowly, and the expression on his face explained everything. "It's great, reminds me of what your Aunt Hallie makes."

"It is a blessing for the Lee family to have a daughter-in-law like Rose," Hallie also praised her.

"Dad, Aunt Hallie, please help yourself," Rose said.

Bright took a sip of porridge and said to her, "Why aren't you ever this nice to me?"

Rose felt that Bright was jealous. She took a small dumpling and put it on his plate. "Dad and Aunt Hallie are elders, so naturally they would have it first."

Doris picked up a small dumpling and got up, then ran to Bright's side and put it in his bowl. "Dad, I'll help you."

Bright held Doris' small face in his hands and planted a light kiss on her forehead. "I know that Doris loves daddy. Unlike your mommy…"

Rose laughed and did not say anything. She did not fuss over Bright's remark.

Doris also gave a small dumpling to Francis, Hallie, and Rose. "Take your time and enjoy."

Everyone was amused by Doris' cute appearance and had a good time eating breakfast.

After breakfast, Francis and Hallie picked up Zoe and returned to City J. When they left, Francis and Hallie once again thanked Rose.

Rose and Bright went to work and sent Doris to school.

When Rose arrived at work, she went to the office and typed a resignation letter before going to Matthew's office.

Matthew saw Rose through the glass wall. "Come in."

Rose walked over and placed the resignation letter on Matthew's desk. "Mr. Matthew, thank you for caring and support me all this time."

"Why resign?" Matthew leaned back in his leather swivel chair.

He looked up at Rose, who wore a white blouse and a polka dot ruffled mermaid skirt. She appeared graceful and charming.

"If there are any problems because of work, I can try my best to help you resolve them so you can work without any worries."

"Mr. Matthew, it's a personal problem," Rose said ambiguously, "I hope you can understand."

Matthew put his hands on the armrests of the swivel chair and looked at her firm eyes. He knew her determination, but he did not want to lose such an excellent designer.

"How about this? I won't accept your resignation letter. The Beach Hotel project must be very taxing. I'll give you a long vacation so you can relax and consider carefully." Matthew stood up with the

resignation letter and handed it to Rose, who stood opposite of him.

His eyes were also persistent and sincere, hoping that Rose could stay.

But Rose did not reach out to take the resignation letter. "Please approve it."

When he saw that she was not going to take it back, Matthew sighed lightly. "Rose, apart from our relationship as manager and subordinate, we are also friends."

Rose nodded. They were indeed friends.

"So I'm telling you as a friend that I'll keep this letter with me, but it doesn't mean that I'll approve it. Whenever you want to, you are welcome to come back to work and take this letter back." Matthew no longer forced her to take it back. "Take a good break anytime you want."

This was the best preferential treatment that Matthew could give to her. Rose could no longer continue rejecting his kindness. She said, "If I don't come back, then please have someone take my place."

"No," Matthew refused without hesitation, "As long as I am here, I have the right to reserve your position for you until you are willing to return."

"You don't need to do this," Rose shook her head and refused.

"I have to do this for the company to make you stay. You don't have to feel burdened." Matthew knew that she did not want to make things difficult for himself. "This is a right that I have."

Rose had no other choice, so she thanked him and turned to leave.

Matthew looked at her back and said, "If you have anything on your mind, you can tell me. I'll be a good listener."

"I'm fine. I won't disturb you anymore." Rose opened the door and left.

Rose drove back to Asgard Lake Community and placed a letter she printed at work on the bedside table. She then took out two suitcases and packed, one for Doris and one for herself.

After she finished packing, she took a taxi and left Asgard Lake Community to pick Doris up from kindergarten and headed for the airport.

After security screening, they waited in the lounge to board the plane.

"Mom, where are we going? Where's Dad? Isn't he coming with us?" Doris sat down and slightly swayed her tiny feet.

"We're going back to City Y. Dad is too busy with work. We need to do what we can. We don't want to trouble him," Rose touched Doris' soft black hair and replied.

"Will dad come to us when he finishes work? Grandpa said that he would let dad take us back to City J," Doris said.

"Probably. We'll wait for him in City Y." Rose held Doris in her arms.

Afterward, they heard a boarding announcement, boarded the plane smoothly, and flew to City Y.

They then took a long-distance bus and arrived in the countryside after a few transfers.

Rose took Doris and followed the path in her memory to a house whose wooden doors were on a latch.

Rose reached out and pushed the door open to see a large courtyard and a house with blue tiles and grey walls. Everything was simple and old.

There were chickens and ducks in the yard. There were also flowers and plants, and a huge yellow Ficus virens in the left corner. It was glorious with thick leaves, like a big umbrella.

Rose walked in with Doris. At this moment, an old man in his seventies came out of the central room with corn in his hand. When he saw Rose, he froze and was so excited that the sieve in his hand fell to the ground, spilling corn everywhere.

"Rose?" the old man asked.

"Grandpa." Rose stepped forward and fell into the arms of the old man like she did when she was a child. "Grandpa, I'm back to see you."

"I'm happy that you are back." Grandpa patted her on the back and looked at Doris, who was not far away.

"Great-grandpa, I am Doris, your great-granddaughter," Doris took the initiative to introduce herself.

"I'm surprised that not only did Rose grow up, but her daughter did as well. It's too bad your grandma won't ever see," Grandpa's voice was choked when he spoke of grandma.

Rose let go of her grandpa. "Grandma is watching from heaven."

"Yes, yes, yes," Grandpa agreed. He asked the cute little Doris, "Doris, where's dad?"
