Chapter 603
She was obviously a little surprised. Looking at me with her big round eyes, she said, "Really? Mommy,
you can''t lie to me."
I smiled and said, "When have I ever lied to you? Hmm?"
"Then, can we bring Bet?" She asked, looking at me with her lovely ck eyes.
I paused for a moment. "Anne, Bet needs to live with his Daddy. If he goes to Jarold City with us,
he will be separated from his Daddy. Do you want him to be separated from his Daddy?"
The little fellow shook her head and said, "No!"
"That''s why. Anne, we all have things that we want. Everyone''s different," I said.
After a long silence, she looked up at me and said, "Mommy, I''ll go to Jarold City with you."
I nodded. Everyone had different things they cared about.
I had not decided on the time to return to Jarold City yet. After all, I needed to finish all the work in
Hovell first.
Perhaps it was because of the continuous arrival of the Reid family members and Norman that I
seemed to be ostracized in the hotel.
There was bound to have a lot of gossip in a ce with many women.
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
I was in the washroom on this day. Before I came out, there were already some people gossiping
outside.
"Who do you think is the father of Arianna''s child? Would it be Aaron Reid?"
"That''s impossible. Aren''t they siblings?"
"There are a lot of incestuous rtionships in the rich and powerful families. Otherwise, why would a
rich man''s daughter like here to live in this small city? Don''t you feel strange?"
"You''re right. I think we haven''t seen the father of her child or heard of him from her before. Is she
really Aaron''s child?"
"That''s possible. She identally got pregnant after having an incestuous rtionship with her brother.
That''s why she fled to this small city in order to avoid arousing suspicion!"
I couldn''t help but smile bitterly. It seemed that no matter how a person lived, he or she may not be free
and at peace. Rumors were terrifying!
A girl''s panicked voice suddenly came from outside. "Oh God, I think my period came. Do any of you
have sanitary napkins?"
"No. Our periods haven''te," the others replied.
"What should I do? It''ll stain my skirtter. I forgot that my period is supposed toe today and I''m
wearing a white dress."
It was unavoidable for girls to feel embarrassed when they encountered this kind of thing.
I pushed open the door and handed the sanitary napkin to her. Without saying anything, I washed my
hands and left.
My sudden appearance obviously made them feel a little embarrassed.
However, I seemed to have gotten used to all the gossip. I had already heard all the things that I was
supposed to hear.
Back at the office, I continued to sort out the documents, thinking about how I should tell Norman about
my resignation.
"Hey... Thank you for just now!" A girl''s embarrassed voice sounded beside my ears. Saying that, she
put a ss of milk on my desk.
I looked up and saw the girl that I met in the washroom. She was talking to me with a blushed face.
"I don''t need it!" I had a cold personality and I said this almost unconsciously. However, I slowly
realized that what I had just said was not very friendly. So I added, "You''re wee. It''s nothing."
She lowered her head. She bit her lip and said, "I''m sorry, just now, I..."
It seemed that it was very hard for her to say thest few words. She was looking a little awkward.
I guessed what she wanted to say was that she should not have gossiped behind my back.
I really did not take it to heart because I had already heard these many times.
Yvette?
After taking a closer look at the staff ID card hanging on the girl''s neck, I could see that her name was
Yvette Miller.
Yvette turned around to look at the bold and confident colleague and said awkwardly, "Stop talking
about it."
She looked at me embarrassedly and apologized,
"I m sorry!"
After saying that, she went back to her desk.
