Sweet Wife in Hidden Marriage

Chapter 34 Is He Pursuing You?

Today's entertainment report had a new interpretation of what happened at the Palmer family's birthday banquet last night. It is said that Lillian wore a tight-fitting dress and high heels to prove that she was not pregnant, and that she secretly seduced Sebastian to join his company. What's more ridiculous was that she was said to have intervened between Sebastian and Joanna.

Emotional gossip had always been talked about, and people were more willing to discuss whether Lillian wanted to be a third party. Such remarks often turned into that she was the third party in the end.

Lillian opened the door of Zoe's ward, and the oncoming laughter surprised her slightly. Who was playing with Zoe?

When she saw the handsome figure sitting with his back to her, she couldn't help being surprised.

Zoe found her and said happily, "Mommy, you are here. Uncle Archibald brought a lot of gifts for me. " After speaking, she showed Lillian things like offering treasures.

Lillian saw that there were children's audio books, comics, and the most conspicuous was a model of a pirate ship. She was startled, for she didn't expect him to be so caring. Zoe only mentioned it casually last time, but he sent the model.

This model was exquisite and realistic, so it shouldn't be cheap. She looked at Archibald and asked, "Why are you free to come over?"

"The last time I made an appointment with Zoe that I would bring gifts to see her." Archibald meant that he was not an unreliable person.

"Mommy, Uncle Archibald said that I can listen to the story by myself if you don't have time, and I don't have to bother the nurse and Uncle Stephen to tell me stories." Zoe held up the audio-book sent by Archibald with a smile.

Lillian squeezed Zoe's cheek, "Then did you thank Uncle Archibald?"

"Yes." Zoe nodded immediately, looking like an obedient child.

Lillian was very pleased. At such a young age, she already knew how not to bother others as much as possible and do her own things by herself. But thinking about it carefully, she felt a little sad. She was still a five-year-old child who could be willful, innocent and trouble others, but she had not done so.

Stephen came to do regular checkups for Zoe. He saw that Archibald was there, and Zoe even had a good time with him. He frowned slightly, and said nothing.

"Uncle Stephen, you are here!" Zoe greeted him warmly.

"Yes, let me see if Zoe is much better today." Stephen smiled softly. Seeing the gift from Archibald, he smiled and said, "Oh, Zoe received a lot of gifts today. You must be very happy, aren't you?"

"Yeah! These are all from Uncle Archibald. "

"If you maintain such a good mood every day, you will get better soon." Stephen started to check as he spoke.

Lillian stepped forward to help, and they circled around the child. Archibald couldn't help, so he stood aside and looked at Archibald.

She was very nervous about the child's health, and she took a sigh of relief when she heard it was nothing serious. Did she believe or rely on Stephen?

Believe or rely on? Archibald looked at Stephen, an elegant doctor. His pupils contracted unconsciously, and he became reticent.

Stephen was very busy, so he went to see other patients after examining Zoe. Archibald was also not free anymore. Just now, the assistant called him and asked him to go back to the company for an urgent matter.

Lillian sent Archibald out, and she rarely sent him in such a long way. He just felt happy, but she stopped and said, "Archibald, how much were the gifts you gave to Zoe? I will pay you back together with the fare. "

When he heard her words, he puckered up his lips little by little, and his dark eyes were stained with coolness, "Lillian, do you make sense like this?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Lillian was confused by his cold stare. In her impression, he was either arrogant and self-confident, forcing people to retreat, or modest, but cunning like a fox.

He seldom stared at her coldly like now. His eyes were fierce and scared her. It was colder than Sebastian's frosty look.

"I..." She didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this. It was better to make a clear distinction between them. Besides, she really didn't understand why he gave Zoe gifts.

"Those are the gifts I gave to the child, which is a token of my regard. Why do you stop me from it? " Archibald didn't listen to what she said, and finished speaking coldly. Then he took a steady step and left in a big stride.

Lillian looked at his chic figure and curled her lips. OK, she had no right to control him, who was arrogant.

When Lillian returned to the ward, she saw Zoe holding the model of the pirate ship lovingly. She smiled and walked over.

"Zoe, do you like this pirate ship?"

"Well, I don't know when I can go to the amusement park to take a real pirate ship." Zoe's eyes were dim. She looked down at the pirate ship in her arms and raised her head again, "But it's all right now. I can see the pirate ship every day." She smiled contentedly.

Lillian helped her organize the audio-books and comics. Thinking about it, she said, "After you have treatment, I will take you to the pirate ship if the situation permits."

"Really!" Zoe was so excited that she was about to jump up.

"The premise is that your physical condition allows it." Lillian tapped the tip of her nose.

"Don't be afraid. Let's take Uncle Stephen together." With Uncle Stephen, the doctor, by her side, she was not afraid of any accidents.

Lillian didn't object, and nodded, "If Uncle Stephen is free, of course it's good."

Zoe fiddled with the pirate ship in her hand, and suddenly asked, "So what about Uncle Archibald? Can you also invite him? "

Lillian was surprised. Had she been bought over by Archibald's gifts?

"Does Zoe really want Uncle Archibald to be with us?"

"When Uncle Archibald gave me the pirate ship, I invited him to have the opportunity to ride a real pirate ship with me." Zoe looked at Lillian cautiously with a pair of big black eyes.

"Mommy, can you?"

Lillian pulled the hair around Zoe's cheeks behind her ears, "As long as you like it, of course it can."

"Great. Uncle Archibald must be very happy!" Zoe clapped his hands and said.

"How do you know he will be happy?"

"Because he told me that he would be very happy if he could ride a pirate ship with mommy."

Lillian frowned. What did Archibald say to Zoe?

"Mommy, is Uncle Archibald chasing you?" Children always tell the truth. She watched Lillian curiously.

Lillian was inexplicably startled. She was unnaturally because of Zoe's pure stare, and patted her forehead, "What are you imagining?"

"Mommy, who do you like better, Uncle Stephen or Uncle Archibald?" Zoe didn't see Lillian's unnaturalness, and asked curiously.

Lillian pretended to be angry and said solemnly, "Zoe, these are not things you should think about. Lie down well, otherwise you will listen to the audio-books from Uncle Archibald, and I won't tell you stories."

Zoe shrugged and lay down obediently, "Well, I won't ask." She just lay down and said to herself, "But I like both uncles very much. They're good to me, so they will also be good to mommy. "
