Cindy saw the faint smile on the corners of Adrian’s lips, the curve of the smile seemed so gentle.
“Good night,” Adrian whispered, gently tucking in the covers for Morgan, and then got up to leave.
Seeing Cindy waiting at the door, he smiled and closed Morgan’s bedroom door.
He told Cindy, “It’s not the first time I’ve seen him sleep, but it’s the first time I held him at night, put him to sleep, and said goodnight to him.”
He’d missed four years, and this was the first time he could say goodnight to Morgan.
Adrian’s expression of regret and relief made Cindy feel a little uncomfortable.
Without thinking, she blurted out, “If you’re willing, you can come and say goodnight to him every day.”
Having said that, a few seconds later, seeing Adrian’s surprised expression,
Cindy regretted it.
Why did she say that?
By saying that, wasn’t she inviting Adrian to come over every day? Not to mention, Adrian was so busy and might not have time to come over every day.
Besides, it made her seem like she was deliberately finding excuses to spend time with Adrian every day.
Cindy wished she could slap her own mouth.
Why would she say that!
She really didn’t mean it!
But to her surprise, Adrian seemed genuinely expectant, “Really? Can I really do that?”
Adrian apparently hadn’t thought too much about it, instead he looked delighted with the idea.
Regret-filled words stuck in Cindy’s throat.
She nodded reluctantly, “Of course, you’re Morgan’s father. I already said you can come and see him anytime you want.”
Cindy paused and added, “But you’re so busy with work every day, coming here after work and then going back home, isn’t that quite troublesome?
So, you could come less often.
Cindy said it very tactfully.
Unexpectedly, Adrian showed hesitation.
Cindy was puzzled by his reaction.
“Unsuitable!” Cindy’s response was surprisingly quick, denying the idea before Adrian could finish.
How could he think of living here?
She never said anything like that!
“I mean, if you don’t mind the trouble, you can come every day,” Cindy hurriedly explained.
Adrian asked, “If I think it’s troublesome, would you let me stay here?”
” Cindy replied immediately, “Of course not!”
What’s the matter with this man? How did he manage to steer every conversation to staying here?
Adrian regretfully said, “In that case, I’ll just deal with the trouble. Even if it’s a bit of a hassle, I’ll still come every day.”
Cindy suddenly felt that she might have brought a big trouble upon herself.
Then she heard Adrian say, “Actually, if you think it’s unsuitable for me to stay here, you can move in with Morgan and stay at my place.”
“There’s plenty of room in my house, lots of bedrooms. Things would be just fine,” Adrian said.
Cindy took a deep breath and replied, “It’s not suitable for the two of us to live together.”
Having said that, her face turned red.
Isn’t that…cohabitation?
Unconsciously, images of her and Adrian living together flashed through Cindy’s mind.
Surprisingly…they seemed quite harmonious.
Cindy hastily tried to shake off these images.
Adrian was toxic!
Not giving him a chance to say anything further, Cindy quickly said, “It’s pretty late, you should head back.”
Finally, Adrian knew whom Morgan inherited the rolling-eyes trait from..
