Chapter 660 So Much Resentment

Ada’s eyes lit up. “A more fun game? What game is that?”

“Ma’am didn’t say, but she said the more people, the more fun. So, Ada, you guys come together then. And also, Uncle Gilbert, you all come,” Blake said.

Ada looked expectantly at Gilbert, whose eyes were fixed on the magazine as if he had not noticed Ada looking at her or heard their conversation. Ada pouted and looked at Andrew, who also looked disappointed.

“Blake, dinner is ready.” Just at that moment, Kisa’s voice came through the phone.

Gilbert’s fingers trembled slightly. He raised his eyes and saw Kisa’s face on the screen of the phone and found that she had a rounder face. He guessed that probably she must have been happy together with Jensen, or the phone was making her look fat. But he hoped it was because of the latter.

“Andrew, Ada, it has been a long time. I miss you guys.”

Ada, “I miss you, too, Ma’am. Can Andrew, Daddy, and I spend Christmas Eve at your place?” Ada asked.

“It’s…” Kisa hesitated. She thought, ‘If Gilbert takes the children to my house on Christmas Eve, then wouldn’t Madalyn resent me even more if she is alone in the massive Kooper residence?‘

And her few seconds of hesitation seemed to Gilbert to be reluctant, that she did not want him and the children to disturb the happy life of her and Jensen together. He felt even more upset. He got up at once, grabbed the phone from Andrew’s hand, and barked at the face, which he had been missing all day, on the phone screen. “Do not worry. We won’t go to disturb you two.” He cut off the video after saying that.

Kisa was surprised, ‘What the heck? Why is Gilbert so angry? But the fact that he is so angry means that he is really not in bad shape anymore.‘ She was in a good mood. Using Blake’s phone, she sent a message to Andrew. After that, she returned the phone to Blake and brought him to the dinner table.

Over at the Kooper’s residence, Gilbert’s face had darkened and looked sullen. Ada was so depressed that she did not understand her daddy anymore, as he was always angry for no apparent reason. She did not even have time to speak more to Kisa before her daddy ended the call. She was so pissed, sitting on the couch with her arms folded, her face puffed up like an angry frog, but

Gilbert’s face was not much better.

Ada and Gilbert were sitting less than one foot apart from each other. Their angry faces were similar as if they were made from the same mold. Andrew looked at them and wanted to laugh. Just when Andrew was about to put his phone away, it suddenly buzzed, and the screen lit up, with a message notification popping up on the screen. It was from Blake. He tapped to open the message at once and took a look. He then literally jumped for joy. “Ma’am agreed to let us go to her house for Christmas Eve! Yeah!”

“Really?” Her anger vanished, and Ada broke into a smile. “I knew it. Ma’am won’t reject us.”

Gilbert stared glumly at the joy on the faces of the two children, feeling upset. He felt that woman letting the children go to her house was just out of pity. It saddened him that the children were still so happy.

Ada jumped over and hugged Gilbert’s arm. “Daddy, will you go to Ma’am’s house on Christmas Eve?”

“I’m not going.”

“Huh? If you are not going, how will Andrew and I get over there?”

“Either stay home, or I will have Uncle Davian drive you there.”

“Humph! Stinky daddy!” Ada huffed, shaking off his arm.

“Strangely, why did Ma’am say that we should wait until great–grandma was asleep, and only then can we go? Wouldn’t that mean we can’t go as long as great- grandma is awake?” Andrew suddenly said in puzzlement.

Gilbert frowned. “What do you mean? Show me that message.”
