Chapter 525 Sometimes Forgiveness Is Equal To Self-Mutilation
"Who is he?", only a five-year-old boy in a suit, looking up at his mother.

Today's tailors really know how to do business. The price of this small dress worn by a little boy, which can be worn on formal occasions, is almost the same as an adult men's suit of similar grade.

If you don't find a tailor, you can't find suitable clothes in the store. Children of this age, teenagers before adulthood, will always grow their bodies, and the models they wear will change in just two or three months.

This has also led to the fact that most well-known brands will not enter the children's clothing market, and they may ruin their own brands. If you want to find a suitable formal dress for this rapidly growing child, then you have to go to a tailor to tailor it .

A five-year-old wearing a small formal suit is like an adult being underage, which is very funny and cute.

Vera changed into an equally suitable set of clothes, and even dressed up a bit. Thanks to Lynch who took her out of the company in advance, otherwise the meal time might have to be postponed for a while.

"That's my mother's boss. He pays us wages so that we can have a good life." She explained it a little more carefully. This explanation is indeed more specific than a simple name or position. She doesn't want her The child misunderstood something.

The little boy looked at Lynch in surprise, and then at Vera, "So, is he the new father?"

In an instant, Vera's face turned red, and Lynch laughed heartily. He couldn't help being unhappy, although Vera's explanation was indeed not a problem in the eyes of adults.

Only by working hard can you get the approval of the boss, and if the boss approves, you can get a generous salary. With this enviable salary, a five-year-old child can work every three to five years in today's economic depression. Months to recreate a formal suit that you probably won't wear even once.

Well, that's not true either, he will definitely be wearing new clothes for the opening ceremony.

But in short, without this money, a woman can't afford expensive living expenses in this era.

In the community she lives in, all the services she enjoys are exchanged for money, including the nanny at home.

But for children, these words become another kind of content—the father is responsible for raising the family, which is something that children can often come into contact with, and people in society say the same, and this is also instilled in schools.

Don't think that the feminist movement means that women have truly stood up. In a patriarchal society, things that consolidate men's dominant position in society will be instilled in people from the time they are children.

Whether it's a cartoon for kids, a fairy tale, a short story or something else, the protagonist is always a man!
So now that Lynch pays Vera so that they can have a good life, isn't Lynch just doing a job that only his father would do?

This surprised the child. Vera did not tell him the whole truth after Garp was arrested. To avoid the child realizing that he has a criminal father.

Even if it makes the kids think Garp has abandoned them, it's a lot better than him knowing he has a criminal father, and that's a social problem.

So he is very sorry, for himself, for Vera, and at the same time, he also hopes that there will be some changes, if it is Lynch...

He secretly glanced at Lynch's handsome appearance, and the infectious smile on his face that made others want to laugh, and felt that this was not a difficult person to get in touch with.

"You don't have to worry about me, I think he is very suitable, I will listen to you and get along well with the new father..." The child was a little excited.

After the initial embarrassment, Vera quickly calmed down. She looked at her child and shook her head, "No, it's not like that, you made a mistake, I'm his employee, he's my boss, we're just like this , there is not much other relationship, understand?"

She looked at the child with a serious and serious expression. What happened just now made her very embarrassed. The blush on her face was slowly melting away, and she had a special sense of beauty under the light.

Just in time, the waiter started to serve food. This was a young waiter. He started serving food from Lynch's side. He called "Sir" first, and then began to serve Vera, but He froze suddenly.

He looked at Vera, at Lynch, and at the child sitting between them, and suddenly felt that he might not know how to address the lady on the table.

If it is called Mrs., it means that she is another man's wife, but it is obvious that Lynch is too young, and although Vera looks very young, she is over thirty after all.

She doesn't have the youthfulness of a young girl, only a mature charm, and the child who is a few years old is not like their child, unless the gentleman was only a teenager when he was there.

Think about it...why is it so exciting all of a sudden?
"lady……"

Lynch's sudden words resolved the waiter's embarrassment and pulled him back from his divergent thoughts. He breathed a sigh of relief, bowed slightly, "Ma'am..." and served Vera at the same time.

Then there is "little gentleman", that is, Vera's child. The restaurant has a whole set of ways to address different guests.

Perhaps the word "Ma'am" played a special role. Vera didn't explain anything to Lynch, and the happy dinner began.

At the dinner table, Lynch said a lot about Nagalil. For women and children who grew up in the traditional federal society of this era, adventure is always the most attractive story. The reason why the subject matter began to become a trend.

It's just that those stories are never as exciting as Lynch's. He is very good at organizing language to recombine some boring and uninteresting story lines into thrilling stories.

For example, when he was chasing and being chased by lions in the prairie, both the elder and the younger would keep exclaiming in low voices as Lynch narrated these stories to express their strong emotions.

Laughter and wonder became the main theme of the meal, so that two people except Lynch were unwilling to end the meal so early.

There is an old saying that goes well, it takes a day to finish eating a rock, let alone a sumptuous and delicious dinner. In the little gentleman's reluctance, the dinner finally ushered in the end.

After dinner, Lynch sent the mother and son back to the home they are currently living in. The whole community looks good. After the first wave and the second wave of bankruptcy, many people moved out from here, and there are also some new ones. Residents have moved in to make it look less desolate and empty.

The guards at the gate are still working normally, and there are also patrolling security teams on the road.

After coaxing the child to rest, Vera returned to the living room, "I don't know what to say, but thank you very much anyway, I have never been as happy as this evening, and he is too!"

She said that he was his child, and since he moved back from his grandparents' house, he has never been as happy as he is today.

This long-lost happiness seems to be quietly changing some of her and her child's emotional problems, which is what she feels the most.

"This is what I should do. You have worked so hard for me. I just invited you and the little boy to have a simple dinner and told a few stories. Speaking of which, I should be the one who needs to be thanked." , Lynch is as gentleman and humble as ever.

As he spoke, he changed the subject, "I heard that you hired a maid, but now it seems..." He looked elsewhere, "I don't seem to see your maid."

"I fired her and found a part-time worker through the community again." When talking about this, Vera still sighed a little, "The previous servant who lived in the house was caught by me stealing things for me and my child. For the sake of safety, I fired him."

Vera did not call the police, and the maid repeatedly begged Vera to forgive her, and said that she stole just wanted some money to support the family.

The kind-hearted Vera did not call the police in the end, but dismissed the maid.

Lynch frowned after listening, "When did it happen?"

Vera didn't pay much attention to this matter, but she still thought about it seriously for a while, "It's been about a week or so, actually I'm not sure if it's the first time, or maybe it happened before, it's just that time It just happened to be discovered by me."

Lynch frowned slightly after hearing this, "You should tell the police about this, it may bring you danger."

Seeing that Vera didn't seem to care much, Lynch explained a little bit, "If it was her first time stealing, the problem is not too serious. If you found out and stopped it in time, her greed has not expanded."

"But if it wasn't her first theft, she used to be able to have a stable extra income through theft, and now you fire her, her financial problems will suddenly become troublesome."

"If she can't find a solution, she will eventually set her mind on you."

Lynch looked around, "She is very familiar with this place. She knows when you leave in the morning and when you come back in the evening. She knows when your children go to school and when they leave school every day. She even picks them up in person."

"When she desperately needs a sum of money, but there is no way to get it legally, you become her best choice."

"She can kidnap your little boy, and she can also sneak in here according to your habits, and after she gets what she wants, there is a high possibility that she will..."

"Because you know her and who she is, if you call the police, she won't be able to run away!"

When Lynch didn't say these things, Vera didn't think there was anything terrible. It was nothing more than dismissing a stolen live-in servant.

But when Lynch talked about these things, a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on her back, and she grabbed Lynch's forearm helplessly, as if asking him what he should do.

Lynch seemed to hear her voice, and gave her a solution that could make her feel at ease, "I'm staying here tonight, and I'll help you find two suitable people tomorrow, maybe Freshly retired female soldiers, they are safe and reliable..."
