134. 1 I Don’t Care What You Do! Just Say It
Fia only realized later when she saw the two women looking at each other and smiling. They were doing it on purpose. Fia pouted. “A pair of evil witches!”
When they reached the small room, Fia ignored Jessie and sat down beside the tea table. Fia opened the cake that Rafael had just given her and ate it.
Jessie took out the textbook from her small schoolbag, “Come here, we will start the supplementary lessons.”
Fia rolled her eyes. “Can’t you wait for me to finish this box of cake first?”
“Have you forgotten how many dumplings you ate for breakfast? You can’t eat anymore.”
Fia reluctantly put down the cake and took the textbook to read listlessly.
Jessie directly explained a few pages about language and mathematics.
Only then did she let Fia do the questions.
Jessie went out to the store to help.
When she came back, she saw that Fia was about to fall asleep there.
Fia did not finish most of the questions in the exercise book. In half of the content that Fia had done, there were also a few questions that were empty.
Jessie sat down and patiently explained again before asking her, “Do you know how to do it now?”
Fia only wanted to sleep as her eyelids kept fighting.
Jessie saw that she did not say anything for a long time and felt helpless. “No matter if you will do it or not, just squeak.”
Fia clenched her teeth up and down, “Squeak.”
Jessie was speechless.
When it was time for Felix to finish school, Jessie and Alex had already decided that Alex would send someone to pick Felix up today.
Jessie could not help but worry that Old Madam from the Horfoud family was still waiting to see the two children in Mountain and River Residence.
Although she had only seen Old Madam once, she could feel that old Madam’s hostility towards her was very deep.
Just as she was letting her imagination run wild, Felix walked in with a small schoolbag on his back. “Mommy.”
“You’re out of school? Did Driver Bart pick you up?”
“It’s dad. He’s waiting for us in the car. Where’s Fia?”
Jessie led the two children out.
Alex opened the door of the passenger seat from the inside.
Jessie sent the children into the car. After hesitating for a moment, she asked Alex, “Are we going back to Mountain and River Residence?”
“No. We are eating outside. What do you want to eat?”
“KFC!” Fia was the first to speak.
Alex ignored Fia and turned to look at Jessie. “What about you?”
Jessie looked at him with a complicated expression. “Anything is fine.”
Fia snorted and pursed her lips as she approached Felix. “We are definitely not his biological children. Other people’s fathers would let their children do whatever they want. Our fathers will let their mothers do whatever they want.”
Felix was speechless.
They chose to eat in a Cantonese restaurant. Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.
While Jessie and the two children were eating, Alex was answering Madam Restall’s call.
Madam Restall heard that Refina had come to R City and that she was currently in Mountain and River Residence. Otherwise, Madam Restall would not even want to talk to Alex now.
“I heard that you took the child but did not return to Mountain and River Residence? The child’s grandmother specially came to see the child, but you didn’t let her see the child? What’s going on? “Madam Restall felt as if her head was about to explode.
Alex wiped his lips with a napkin, got up and went to the end of the corridor outside the private room, and then said lightly, “She wants to bring Felix and Fia to N City.”
Madam Restall did not think about anything else and said in a disbelieving tone, “The child is currently in school. Why did she let the child go to N City?”
“They want the custody of Felix and Fia.”
“What?” Madam Restall stood up and raised her voice a few degrees. “So she came to snatch the child? Felix and Fia are the grandsons of Laurent family. Their surname is Laurent and they were raised by us. How could she have the right to snatch the custody?”
In the past, Madam Restall and Refina had a close relationship. Ever since Gina passed away, Madam Restall had been anxious to marry Alex a second wife. When she met Refina again, she had been speaking coldly to her because of this matter.
Since then, the two Old Madam did not like each other.
Alex was very satisfied with Madam Restall’s reaction and said unhurriedly, “En, Felix and Fia are also not willing to go to N City.”
“All of you should not stay in Mountain and River Residence for this period of time. You bring
Felix and Fia back here to live here.” Madam Restall was extremely anxious. “Also, you must not give her any chances. If she wants to file a lawsuit or forcefully snatch it, then let her do it. The Laurent family is not afraid of the Horfoud family!”
After repeatedly reminding him, Madam Restall suddenly woke up. “Wait a minute. They had not mentioned the matter of custody for so many years. Why did they suddenly think of this matter again? They even specially came to fight for it? Tell me the truth. Did the Horfoud family find out about the matter between you and Jessie?”
“It’s only a matter of time. It doesn’t matter even if they knew about it.” Alex’s indifferent tone made Madam Restall’s eyes turn red with anger. She blurted out, “Are you so eager to tell the world
that you want to marry a second wife?”
The smile on Alex’s lips disappeared. “It is also my second marriage and I also have two children. Jessie did not have any children. I earned it.”
Madam Restall did not expect him to belittle him like this. She was stunned for a second. She was so angry that she wanted to scold him for being a bastard, but Alex had already hung up.
Jessie saw that Alex had been answering the phone for a while and came to find him. She saw that he had hung up the phone before asking, “Are you willing to be with me?”
“No.” Alex put his phone into the pocket of his suit and walked over to wrap his arms around her waist. “Have you finished eating?”
In the past, he would not do something so intimate in public. Now, he did not know why, but he actually hugged her waist in front of so many people.
Jessie shyly wanted to push him away.
Alex hugged her even tighter.
Jessie looked up at him. Although Alex’s handsome face did not have any expression, she could still feel that he was not in a good mood.
Alex only let go when he reached the door of the private room. He pushed open the door of the private room and walked in. He did not go to eat anymore. He took the coat from the back of the chair and put it on. He looked at Felix and Fia and asked, “Have you all finished eating?”
Felix had already finished eating. The rest of the dishes in his bowl were all picked up by Fia. With a bitter expression on his face, he stuffed the dishes into his mouth bit by bit.
When Fia first saw the green pea sprouts, she liked them very much and put a lot of them into the bowl.
She ate a few mouthfuls and did not like the pea seedlings. When Felix went to the bathroom, she put all of them in his bowl.
Felix came over to question her, but she refused to admit it.
Felix was not used to eating leftovers, but he did not grab hold of Fia’s weakness, so he could only eat up the food bit by bit.
Looking at Fia snickering, he sighed in his heart, ‘Only a small person and a woman are hard to raise…’
Jessie saw that Felix was forcing himself to eat. She sat next to Felix and picked up half of the dishes with chopsticks and placed them in her bowl. She finished them in a few bites. “Alright, Felix, let’s go.”
“Us?” Fia asked nervously when she saw them get up.
Jessie guessed that she did not want to see her grandmother and could not help but gently shake her fleshy little hands. Jessie bent down and whispered into Fia’s ear, “Don’t worry. As long as you are unwilling, no one can forcefully take you away.”
Alex pulled Felix down from the chair on the other side and looked at Fia indifferently, “Didn’t you want to listen to music?”
Fia and Jessie were stunned at the same time.
When they reached the entrance of a luxurious and high-end karaoke, Jessie still did not dare to believe that Alex actually wanted to sing for Fia.
In her mind, she could not help but recall that unique melody.
She could not help but look at Alex, who was holding Felix’s hand in front of her.
He was wearing a black business coat. He was tall and mighty. Under all kinds of signboards and lights, his side face was cold and intimidating.
She really didn’t dare to imagine a man like him singing a song that was exceptionally fresh and refined, with an unconventional style of the sword.
The appearance of a family with stunning looks stunned countless passers-by in the karaoke.
Jessie rarely came to this kind of place. She was inexplicably nervous and embarrassed when people saw her. She held Fia’s little hand and kept her head down.
Under the warm guidance of the waiter, the four of them entered a large private room.
Felix was very puzzled.
Fia’s face was full of expectation, and from time to time, she pursed her lips and held back her laughter.
It was as if she could already hear Alex howling.
Alex took off his coat, untied the buttons of his suit, and sat down on the sofa. He leaned back against the back of the sofa and motioned for Jessie to go and play a song.
Jessie pursed her lips and walked over.
Fia ran over, her dark and bright eyes full of smiles. She attentively reported the name of the song, “Despicable Me Version’s Mount Tai.”
Jessie put the name of the song in. She did not expect that this karaoke would actually have such
a song.
Immediately after, a microphone was stuffed into her hands. Fia giggled and followed, “You go and give this to Dad.”
Jessie could not bear to, “How about we change to another song?”
Fia put on an act and put on a small face on the floor. “You want to be a liar?”
Fia had been looking forward to it for a day and night, so Jessie did not want to disappoint her. Jessie picked up the microphone and went to sit beside Alex.
At this time, the prelude of the song had already begun.
She quickly stuffed the microphone into Jessie’s big hands. “You promised to sing it for Fia. You sing it.”
Felix looked at Jessie and his small chin almost dropped out of shock.
Was it raining red at their house?
Not only did his father, who never sang, take the initiative to bring them to the karaoke, he even sang such an exaggerated song like Mount Tais?
Alex stared deeply at Jessie for a few seconds. He picked up the microphone and turned his eyes t o look at the big screen opposite him.
At this time, the lyrics began to appear on the screen.
The more Alex looked, the tighter his eyebrows became.
Fia saw that he only stared at the screen and did not pick up the microphone to sing. She pouted and glared at Jessie.
Jessie’s scalp went numb as she listened to the music. She did not dare to urge him.
As long as Fia looked over, she would move her gaze away and pretend not to see Fia’s complaint.
When the lyrics on the screen were half finished, Alex took the remote control and turned off the music. “These lyrics are messy. Fia, if you dare to listen to a similar song in the future, I will beat your butt until it is swollen!”
Instantly, the huge luxurious private room fell into a strange silence.
Fia did not dare to flare up even if she wanted to. She pursed her small mouth and her eyes started to turn red again. She looked like she was about to cry.
Felix did not feel surprised.
How could a rigid person like his father really sing for them?
Alex’s cold voice sounded again in the private room. “Give me the remote control of the song!”
Jessie saw that his expression was not good and did not dare to go and comfort Fia. She quickly
passed the remote control in her hand to him.
As Alex entered, he glanced at the little girl who was huddled up in a ball of tears on the sofa. “If you want to hear it, then take back your tears!”
Fia suddenly raised her head and looked at her father in a daze.
Jessie also blinked a few times in disbelief.
Was he really going to sing? Felix’s eyes were already wide open, and he nervously turned his gaze towards the screen,
