Chapter 68 Are You Two Getting A Divorce


    Nathan went for a shower after spending some time with his family.


    As he stepped out of the bathroom, his parents-inw already went to bed.


    Penny was also coaxing their daughter to sleep in the bedroom.


    However, the young one refused to sleep and threw a tantrum. She asked for her father constantly and


    insisted on sleeping together on the same bed.


    As Nathan entered the room, Penny pouted her lips and told her daughter, "Alright, Papa is here now.


    You can go and sleep together in his room."


    However, the young girl shook her head and eximed, "No, I want to sleep with both Papa and


    Mama!”


    Nathan burst intoughter while Penny''s face flushed red. She told her daughter, “Papa and Mama


    cannot sleep together." "But I asked my friends at kindergarten.


    They''d said that their Papa''s and Mama''s would sleep together. They''d even said that only those who


    are fighting with each other will sleep separately." Her daughter spoke indignantly.


    Both Penny and Nathan broke out into a cold sweat upon their daughter''s words.Did children who


    would attend kindergarten know so much nowadays?


    After saying her piece, she narrowed her eyes and looked at her parents suspiciously, "Papa, Mama,


    are you two fighting?"


    Penny quickly assured her, "Of course not. Papa and Mama are fine."


    The young girl looked at them in doubt. Biting her lips, she started to specte, "Then why don''t you


    two sleep together? Are you two getting a divorce?”


    Nathan''s forehead broke out in sweat while Penny did not know whether tough or cry at her


    daughter''s question.


    Gently, she assured her,


    "You little one, what you are thinking of? Papa and Mama are not getting a divorce. Why would we do


    that?"


    Her daughter pouted and wailed, "But that''s how it happens on TV! Papa and Mama will sleep in


    different rooms when they argue, and then they will get a divorce..."


    Penny warned her, annoyed, "You are grounded from watching TV for a week!"


    Normally, when Penny punished her daughter like this, thetter would pout as though she was


    wronged.


    However, this time, not only did she not do that, she begged Nathan and Penny pitifully, "Papa, Mama.


    I will not watch TV anymore. I won''t ask for ice cream anymore too! I will do my homework on time and


    sleep early. I will also help Grandma with the dishes and household chores. Please don''t get a divorce?


    I don''t want to be an orphan..."


    Penny felt sympathy for her daughter when she acted like this.


    She knew that her daughter had grown up in a single-parent family. Since she had just gotten a new

    father, she would naturally be afraid of losing either of them.


    Hugging her daughter tightly, she assured her gently, "Hey, silly girl. Papa and Mama will never get a


    divorce. You won''t be an orphan, alright? Why don''t you ask Papa if that is true?"


    Queenie Smith raised her head and looked at Nathan, who stood beside her.


    Nathan promised her too, "Papa swears that I will never divorce Mama. We will always be here for


    you."


    Queenie blinked her eyes and asked again, "Are you guys not divorcing anymore?"


    Nathan and Penny replied in unison, "We''d never wanted to divorce, alright?"


    Queenie added quickly, "Then can you two sleep in the same room, just like my friends'' Papa''s and


    Mama''s?"


    Nathan could not make the call on this


    matter.


    Meanwhile, Penny''s face was slightly flushed, as she was about to reject her daughter.


    However, if she did so, her daughter would surely think that they were fighting, getting closer to a


    divorce.


    s, she could only say in a soft voice, "Alright, Mama, Papa and you will sleep in the same room


    tonight. Are you happy now?"


    Queenie jumped in joy and cheered, "Oh yes!! I can finally sleep in the same room as Papa and Mama


    again."


    The word ‘again'' made Penny and Nathan recall how there were only two rooms when they stayed at


    the old apartment blocks in Asiatic Vige.


    They slept together in the same room, but Nathan slept on the floor instead.


    However, times were different now.


    Penny changed her attitude towards Nathan ever since Benson Smith and Leah acknowledged him as


    their son-inw.


    Nathan contributed a lot to the family and left a good impression on Penny too.


    No matter what rtionship they had now, Penny would not allow him to sleep on the floor any longer.
