Chapter 235
“If I had stood on Naeve’s side and supported her back then, that period of time wouldn’t have been so difficult for her, and maybe in the end…” The rims of Moira’s eyes were slightly red.
A sliver of sadness streaked across Jacob’s eyes. “You were only a child back then, even if…”
“You’re the child!” Moira gritted her teeth and puffed her chest up high.
“Alright, alright. I’m the child, you’re the adult.” Seeing the beautiful face in front of him that was full of indignation, he dropped it and admitted defeat.
I can’t anger a beautiful woman.
“Hehe!” Seeing Jacob’s exasperated face, Heidi’s brows curved as she let out a crisp laugh.
“How dare you laugh at Daddy, watch me take care of you!” He glared and pretended to be angry as he bent down to carry his daughter. He lifted his arms, and his kid was flying high.
In the end, Moira stopped them because she couldn’t look on any longer. She was afraid the father and daughter would play until the sky darkened.
At the same time, inside the luxurious master bedroom of Suite No. 1, Suzie lay on the big, soft bed and stretched her body with a satisfied expression.
“Ah, it isn’t a super five-star hotel for nothing. Just the bed is half the size of our bedroom at home!” There was a laidback air about her, and she turned over contentedly.
“Be careful of your stomach!” Franklin, who was by the bed, reminded her quickly, “you’re almost at your due date. Can’t you be more careful, Suzie?”
“What?” Suzie stared at him with her almond eyes.
Franklin’s eyes trembled slightly. “Uh, what I meant was, this bed is too soft. Be careful when you turn over, in case you can’t get up.”
“Hmph!” A contented snort escaped the corner of Suzie’s lips.
After a while, she blinked. Her delicate face was frosty, and she feigned anger in a coy manner. “Franklin, you’re calling me a tortoise in a roundabout manner!”
“No, I definitely didn’t mean that!” Franklin waved his hands in panic with a mocking expression.
A few moments later, he broke into a run and left the bedroom after dressing neatly. “Richard just took on some management work for the Tower. I’m going over to help him out. Let Jay arrange for people to send you back later.”
“I don’t want to go back!” Suzie said in a pampered tone as she lay on the bed and looked at her husband’s figure. “I heard that there’s a spa for pregnant women here. I want to try it out. Come and pick me up when you’re done.”
“Alright.” Franklin’s voice was heard faintly outside the bedroom.
A few minutes later in the lobby of the hotel, Jacob, who was holding his daughter’s hand, turned his head to see his father walk out. “Where are you going so early in the morning?”
Franklin walked over to stroke his granddaughter’s braid, then smiled and said, “I’m going to take a look at the Tower.”
“Should I arrange for someone to send you?” Jacob asked as he carried his daughter.
Without waiting for a reply from his father, he acted on his own accord and said, “It won’t be very peaceful these two days. Let me get someone here to go with you.”
Thinking about what had happened the night before, Franklin’s face darkened as he nodded.
After calling Ocho over to send his father to Oriental Tower, Jacob stood in front of his new Land Rover and raised his eyebrows at Moira who wasn’t far away. “Get in. Even if you want to resign, you should do it in person.”
Heidi stuck half her body out of the car and waved. She said in a baby voice, “Aunty, come in quick. It’s so big inside!”
“Careful! You’re going to fall out.” Moira glared at the kid before twisting her slender waistline in their direction.
Before getting in the car, she stuck out her delicate nose slightly as she said in a tender voice, “I was thinking about it, and I’ve decided not to quit. Although I know my own capabilities, it’s a job where the pay is high, there is good career development, and my boss is a woman. It’s not easy to find a job like that.”
