Chapter 709


    L looked helpless.


    Making money was definitely more important than making rtionships!


    Thinking about this, she watched Rosalynn walk into the office.


    “Mommy!”


    Ivy was still full of energy and cuteness. She immediately pounced on Rosalynn when she saw her.


    Rosalynn bent down to hug her: “Did you have fun today, baby?”


    “Yeah!”


    Ivy nodded and then stuffed something into Rosalynn’s mouth.


    Before Rosalynn could react, she instinctively bit into it. The sweet taste of a cherry tomato spread in


    her mouth.

    Rosalynn looked at Ivy, her eyes lit up with surprise.


    Ivy blinked and asked expectantly, “Is it yummy?”


    “It’s delicious. Did Ivy buy this for Mommy?” Rosalynn asked.


    “Nope, I didn’t buy it.” Ivy said with pride, then her eyes suddenly drifted to Wayne. She turned back


    and pointed at him, “It’s from his garden.”


    Rosalynn touched Ivy’s cheek, then straightened up.


    Cory also called out at this time, “Mommy.”


    He was a bit tired today, so he didn’t have much energy.


    Rosalynn walked over with Ivy, touched Cory’s forehead and asked, “Are you tired today?”


    “Not really.” Cory shook his head, “I slept in the morning, and went to Moonlit Lake with Ivy in the


    afternoon.”


    Cory paused, then said, “He said he wanted toe and have dinner with you, so we came.”


    Rosalynn looked at Wayne.


    “Let’s sit down and have dinner, it’s getting cold.” Wayne opened the lids of the meal boxes and got


    everything ready.


    He didn’t seem very experienced in this stuff, and his movements were a bit clumsy. Rosalynn worried


    several times that he would identally spill the food.


    Luckily, everything went smoothly in the end.


    Originally, Rosalynn thought Wayne was forced to bring Cory and Ivy with him because he had no other


    choice.


    However, throughout the dinner, Wayne took good care of Ivy and Cory.


    He knew what they could and couldn’t eat.


    “You’re pretty good at taking care of kids,” Rosalynn said to Wayne with a teasing tone.


    Wayne looked at her and said, “Cory and Ivy are very well–behaved. It doesn’t take much effort from


    me. You taught them well.” Rosalynn readily epted hispliments.


    Ivy was indeed very happy today. She was born to love sharing things with her mom, and she was


    chattering non–stop throughout the night.


    After she finished eating, Rosalynn wiped her mouth and asked, “Did you like it there, Ivy?”


    Ivy froze for a moment, her expression became cautious, and she changed the subject quickly, “Is


    Mommy off work? Ivy needs to go back to feed the kitten.”


    Rosalynn felt a bit helpless but she didn’t force her to talk, “Mommy still has to work overtime. Be good


    and go home with your dad and brother, Ivy”


    Ivy seemed disappointed and asked, “Will mommye home to tell us bedtime stories?”


    Rosalynn apologized, “Sorry, baby, I can’t do that today. Your dad will tell you stories, right, dad?”


    Rosalynn looked at Wayne.


    She coulent imagine what Wayne would look like telling bedtime stories to their kids.


    Wayne paused, then nodded, “Yes, I’ll tell you stories.”


    by looked skeptical, “You can tell stories?”


    “Of course, your dad knows everything” Rosalynn kissed Ivy’s cheek, turned and kissed Cory’s cheek,


    “Alright, mommy has lots of work to do. Go home with your dad now.”
