this damn love

That night, after the family sat around and had dinner, they prepared to leave.After the nanny Andy cleaned up the kitchen, she knocked on Kate's study.

Kate, who was busy in the room, opened the door and saw her let her in, "Andy, what's the matter?" She suddenly looked nervous, "Is Lilian feeling unwell?"

Andy closed the door after entering, not noticing a sinister gaze staring at her until the door blocked the peeping gaze.

Andy straightened out the folds of her clothes. She is a strict and rigid woman with all her hair. She doesn't allow any omissions in her appearance, so she said with a straight face, "Ma'am, Miss is fine."

In this family, Andy would only call Lilian Miss. As for East, in Andy's eyes, he was a bastard with low blood in his bones, and he always treated him coldly.

Kate was relieved when she heard that the child was fine, "Then you came to find me specially?"

Andy said in a serious tone, "I'm old and I often have to wake up at night. A few times it was very late, and I saw someone passing by the stairs on the second floor."

Kate's heart trembled, "You mean...Esther?"

Andy said, "Judging from her figure, it should be her. She passed the stairs from the right to the left."

Andy's room was on the first floor, and she had to pass the living room and the stairs when she went to the bathroom at night, while Kettleblack and William's room was on the right side of the second floor, and there were only Easter and Lilian on the left.

Kate thought of the figure peeping through the door several times in the previous night, and her face was a little ugly, "I see, I was just going to talk to her."

After reporting the situation to the hostess and getting feedback, Andy went out.

Kate couldn't sit still anymore, she put aside her work and planned to go to East.

She wanted to knock on the door, but subconsciously tried to twist the doorknob, and gently pushed the door open—as if she wanted to see what East alone was doing in the room.

There was a slight creaking sound from the door, and Easter, who was painting with his back to the door, froze and turned to stare at her, "Mom, can I knock on the door before entering the room?"

She exudes a very unhappy aura, with a bit of blame.

Such an attitude made Kate, who was a little apologetic for trespassing into the room, not in a good mood, and said directly, "Sorry, but there is something I want to talk to you about."

East glanced at her, didn't even put down the brush, dipped the paint and continued to paint slowly, "What's the matter."

"You didn't sleep last night, did you sneak out of my and Black's room?" Kate didn't say such words as peeping, and she still cared about the girl's face.

Unexpectedly, East said bluntly, "When I can't sleep at night, I like to walk around."

Kate said, "I mean, you know, our house doesn't lock the door. Do you open the door of our room and..."

"That's a coincidence," Easter interrupted her, without any panic, and calmly said, "I wanted to chat with you, but I found out that you were having sex."

Kate gasped, "My God! Do you know what you're talking about!"

An eleven or twelve-year-old girl said such words casually, and she was too unrestrained.What's more, in their family that pays attention to etiquette and upbringing.

East turned to look at her and said calmly, "Make love, have sex, whatever you want."

Kate didn't know what to say, "You, you!" She stroked her chest, took a few hard breaths, and suppressed her anger, "Anyway, from now on, you are not allowed to hang out in the corridor in the middle of the night! And you are not allowed to peek!"

East smiled, turned his head and continued to paint, and lightly stained the canvas with a brush dipped in blue paint, "It's just a coincidence. Besides, sexual intercourse is a normal behavior of human beings, and there is nothing to be ashamed of."

Obviously she was spying on other people's couples, but when she said it, it became the other party's suspicion.

Kate was panicked and slammed the door out regardless of etiquette.

The room was quiet again, with his back to the smudged East, a sarcastic smile appeared on his beautiful face.

Kate returned to her room, facing the work impetuously, and couldn't look into it no matter what.

She began to feel that adopting East was a mistake.

She walked up and down the room, feeling agitated, and realized that her old disease might relapse, so she quickly took out the medicine and took it.

When I get better, I plan to talk to Black.

As soon as he went out, he heard a burst of laughter from downstairs.

She stood at the stairs and looked down. In the living room, Black and East were sitting side by side on the sofa. East didn't know what to say, and Black's always serious face melted, revealing a gentle smile.

Kate's heart suddenly tightened inexplicably, feeling a little uneasy.

"Dad, you are so busy at work, and you have to work overtime when you come back. It's so hard." East held the man's arm, looked up at him, his eyes were full of admiration and love.

It was the first time for Blake to enjoy the comfort of the intimate little padded jacket, and his heart softened, "It's not hard work, it's all to give you a better life. I love you."

Esther smiled happily, "I love you too, Dad." She stood up and went around behind the sofa, putting her hands on the man's shoulders, "Dad, let me massage your head for you. I learned this in school, Very comfortable."

Blake couldn't bear to greet his daughter with kindness, "Okay. Thank you dear."

East helped him massage gently, and the two chatted from time to time, laughing knowingly.

The picture of a loving father and daughter getting along in harmony is very dazzling to Kate.

When had Black treated Lilian so gently and intimately?

I originally thought of adopting a daughter to restore the relationship between the husband and wife, and let each other get out of the shadow of the past, but I didn't expect...

At this moment, Kate regretted it sincerely.

That night, Kate and Blake talked about what Andy said, and finally said, "Esther is completely different in front of you and in front of me. I don't think we can get along with her, I think we should send her back .”

Unexpectedly, Black strongly objected, "It's because you don't want to accept her. You see, she gets along well with Lilian and me. Besides, a lonely child, how can you bear to send her back. And Kate, I suggest you go see a psychiatrist, the old Frank was fine."

"I'm sleepy, I'm asleep." Blake turned over impatiently, and Kate was stunned by the bed, feeling cold.

He would rather believe a girl who has been in the house for less than two months than her! ?

The flame of anger burned from his chest, and was soaked by cold water, turning it into a bone-chilling chill.

The tears in the corners of her eyes were forced back, and Kate silently lifted the quilt to bed, also turning her back to her husband.

In the darkness, he quietly clenched his fists.

Since he doesn't believe it, she must find evidence to prove that there is something wrong with East.

Early the next morning, the family had breakfast together as usual, and then went to work and school.

Usually it was Black who sent East to school, but today East said she was not feeling well and wanted to ask for leave, so Black asked her to rest at home.

After the whole family left, East glanced at Andy who was washing dishes in the kitchen, and took Lilian outside to play in the snow.

"Lilian, be good, let's make a snowman."

After playing with Lilian for a while, East asked her to build a snowman by herself.

Seeing Lilian playing alone, East quietly sneaked back into the room, took out the scissors he bought in advance from his schoolbag, and sneaked into the garage behind.

There are usually three cars parked in the garage, which are driven by Kate and Blake, and a classic car that Andy usually goes grocery shopping.

After a while she came out and continued to play with Lilian as if nothing had happened until they were taken back by Andy.

"Take good care of Miss, I'll be back in a while."

Andy finished talking to East condescendingly and went out.

East stared at her back, a silent, smug smile slowly floated on his face.

Lilian glanced at her from the corner, but didn't make a sound to stop her.

Soon, both Blake and Kate, who were still at work, received a call from the hospital. Andy, the old nanny who had served them for more than ten years, had a car accident because of brake failure and was seriously injured in the hospital.

Kate hurried to the hospital. After all, they still have feelings after being together for so long. Andy's condition is very bad, and he is still in danger after surgery.

She has no children or relatives. Kate hired someone to take care of her, and she came back to pack Andy's clothes and cook dinner for the two who stayed at home. That's why Lilian and East knew about this from her. thing.

After dinner, Kate hugged Lilian, "Honey, stay at home obediently, I'll be back in a while."

She glanced at East and asked, "Take care of my sister."

East raised his smiling face, "I will."

Kate glanced at her, and a vague thought flashed through her, but the situation was urgent and she didn't have time to think about it, so she drove out in a hurry.

The house was quiet again, and East suddenly laughed happily. The laughter was wild and reckless, echoing in the empty room, bringing out bursts of strange echoes.

Lilian covered her ears, thinking blankly, howling is really ugly.

Probably because she behaved more well-behaved during this time, when the two were alone, East did not avoid her very much. Seeing that there was no one else in the room, East went directly into Andy's room and seemed to take a handful of it from inside. The key came out and went upstairs.

Lilian watched TV downstairs for a while before returning to her room. She touched the pillow and found some kind of hard metal object inside.

This made her feel very at ease.

Those blue eyes that usually looked dull and dull suddenly had a flash of brilliance.
