Chapter 1076 His Child (15)
Leah turned her head mischievously and looked at her own mother.
The man standing next to her had deepening eyes and a hint of a smile on his lips.
Rose''s cheeks turned slightly red, and there was a rare tenderness on her face. When she heard Leah''s words, she was taken aback and looked at
the father and daughter in front of her with some confusion.
If she hadn''t broken up with Elliot back then, would this scene be real now?
She has always known that her three children want aplete family.
Can they go back to the past now?
Rose''s eyes flickered slightly as she whispered, "I''ll go take a shower first."
After saying this, she turned around and walked straight to her room upstairs.
Elliot, who stood in ce, looked at Rose''s departing direction with deep eyes, and his face also showed a rare softness.
Half an hourter, Rose had just walked out of the bathroom when she saw a tall and slender man, also wearing a bathrobe, leaning against the wall
and looking at her with deep-set eyes
Although the lighting was dim at this moment, for some reason she could feel Elliot''s profound gaze.
She suddenly felt inexplicably nervous, nced sideways and avoided the man''s gaze, preparing to go downstairs to chat with her daughter.
As she walked past Elliot, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his arms.
Without another word, he turned around and confined her within his arms.
Without waiting for Rose''s reaction, Elliot leaned in, lowered his head, and gently sniffed Rose''s neck twice.
The woman felt a slight itch on her neck and shrank back slightly, but for some reason, she didn''t want to refuse.
He held her slender waist firmly, lowered his head, and kissed her red lips, his lips boldly invading hers.
Soon, under the gentle assault of this man, Rose began to lose herself.
Just at that moment, the warmth on her lips disappeared, and she heard Elliot''s hoarse voice, "How about having a child with me?"
The scene just now in the living room gave him a warm feeling, like home.
If they also have a child together, would the scene be just as warm and harmonious?
Elliot already had in mind the joy of getting along as the family of three.
But his words brought rity to her hazy gaze.
Rose''s expression turned cold. "Doesn''t Mr. Harper already have a son?"
"There are plenty of women who want to have children with Mr. Harper, and I''m not one to miss out,” he retorted.
She sneered at Elliot before turning around and leaving the room.
As soon as she stepped outside, she heard hurried footstepsing from downstairs.
Curious, Rose went down only to find an angry old man storming in
It was Elliot''s grandfather.
She pursed her lips and remained silent
Cld Mr. Harper, arrived locking disheveled and immediately saw the woman standing there. His face darkened instantly. "What are you doing here?"
Elliot hade downstairs by then and upon seeing his grandfather nearby. he quickly stepped forward and shielded Rose behind him. His gaze was
icy as he looked at old Mr. Harper. "Why did youe back?"
"If I hadn''te back, how would I

"Elliot, can''t you just behave yourself? Madeleine worked hard preparing for your wedding day but why did it turn into such a disaster when it should
have been perfect?"
"Are you trying to provoke me on purpose?”
Cld Mr. Harper hurled insults relentlessly while gasping for breath between each sentence.
Throughout all this time though, Elliot remained silent with an impassive expression on his face as he stared at his grandfather who stood nearby
without saying a word.
Cld Mr. Harper, however, this silence felt like resistance that only fueled his rage even further.

being protected by Elliot behind him

Old Mr. Harper grew angrier with each passing moment until finally raising up the cane in his hand; He swung it fiercely towards both individuals!
Instinctively turning around; Elliot shielded Rose from harm''s way once again!
The cane struck the man repeatedly, causing Rose, who was being protected in his embrace, to feel the slight tremble of his body and even see the
sweat beads on his forehead.
However, Elliot remained silent and endured it all.
Cld Mr. Harper was getting older and began to pant heavily after moving his hands. He retrieved the cane and forcefully tapped it on the ground.
"Elliot. I hope you''ve learned your lesson this time!"
Rose furrowed her eyebrows slightly and couldn''t help but want to speak up for Elliot. But before she could say anything, he reached out and pulled
her arm while shaking his head slightly.
He wanted to bear his grandfather''s anger alone without letting Rose be med again because of him.
Rose locked at Elliot with aplicated expression in her eyes. She couldn''t help but feel sorry for this man.
When they got married years ago, she had seen Mr. Harper once but never thought things would escte like this.
At that moment, Leah heard all themotion from inside the kitchen and came running out nervously. When she saw an old man standing nearby
with an angry look on his face. She walked over timidly towards her mommy.
"Mommy." old Mr. Harper red at Leah as he became angrier while tapping on his cane again.
"This child isn''t even yours! Do you want to raise someone else''s child?"
"And Rose, this uneducated woman has no right to stay in the Harper Vi!"N?velDrama.Org owns this.
"You make sure they both leave my house now! Don''t let me see them here again!”
Elliot couldn''t take it anymore after hearing those words; he lifted up his gaze with determination as he stared at Mr. Harper who stood not far away
from him.
"That''s enough! My affairs have nothing to do with Rose so don''t involve her."
"They are staying here because I insisted on asking so.”
Leah felt scared upon hearing their argument; she shrank back nervously while watching them silently without speaking a word.
But deep down inside Leah felt relieved that her daddy defended herself and her mommy!
Cld Mr. Harper had a cold expression as he stared at Elliot intently before saying in a low voice, "Don''t forget that you can only marry Madeleine."
"I only recognize Madeleine as my granddaughter-inw."
"Not just anyone can marry into the Harper family!"
