After a happy time with their father, two children stared at Christy Zhong and asked, "Who is this auntie? Her face reminds us of our mother. "
Everyone was stunned. It is said that the words of those innocent children were very spiritual and can predict the future.
"Hey!" Christy greeted them warmly. She liked the two children at the first sight, who also kept reminding her of her son, Justin.
Then she turned and took out the presents, "I also prepared you presents."
The two little kids were still in James's arms, yet they reached out their small hands and got the present, said happily, "Thank you!"
James put both of them on the ground and encouraged them, "Open up and see if you like it?"
They immediately put their toys aside and hurried to open the present.
They cheered,"Wow. These are our favorite. Thanks dad. Last time I told granny about this, but she hasn't bought it for us."
It seemed that the gift was an excellent choice. James gave a meaningful glance at Christy.
All these were caught in Jing Lu and Yvonne's eyes, they became angry!
How could this woman be so bold and took her words for nothing!
Jing was angry, and Yvonne's face was also colorful. This was just humiliating!
Why should she be here and saw those happy family things?
So she stood up all of sudden, and said angrily," Auntie Jing, I don't think I should come today. "
Jing followed her to stand up, patting her shoulder and comforting, “Calm down, there are always someone who craves for those things that she doesn't deserve, you understand?"
Her words showed her attitudes towards Yvonne and Christy clearly. How could Christy compare to Yvonne?
Jing's words inspired Yvonne. Yes, aunt Jing was right, why should she be the one to give up. Whatever happened, she couldn't bear giving up before such a woman.
"Thanks for reminding me. I almost fell for someone's trick." Yvonne said arrogantly.
While the two chiming with each other, James and Christy didn't give a word.
Christy knew it that she didn't have any positions to speak here. She might as well follow the orders.
Anyway, her boss was James, she should let him satisfied, so she'd better follow what she was told yesterday.
So, having no other way out, Christy could only focus her attention on these two kids. While she looked at them amiably, she also focused her attention on other people's reaction, in case there were anything she needed to do.
"Yvonne, I've shown you James's room yesterday, it’s what it used to be, a bachelor’s room. That woman was only his secretary, my daughter-in-law should be an educated girl like you!"
Jing said this deliberately to humiliate Christy, and to remind James meanwhile that she knew his actual situation.
Christy felt uncomfortable on hearing this kind of words, but she could do nothing but endured.
James didn't agree, he strode forward, "Mom, Christy is my girlfriend. Just say it if you have any problems. We have made compromise before. You wouldn't want to break it."
His words were a little harsh, Yvonne felt a bit embarrassed. She wouldn't not tolerate that the one she was to have a blind date with should have affairs, no one would.
Yvonne was fed up, "You mean you will have a wife at home and an affair outside?"
Many people are indeed living such a life secretly, yet they never made it public.
"You call the shots." James said directly.
Jing embarrassed Christy with provocation, he could also pay her back with an even more humiliating way. This was his way of protest.
"James, it is nonsense!" Jing wouldn't allow such things to happen. This was not only a matter of impoliteness, "Apologize to Yvonne, now!"
James didn't give a word, he just walked decidedly toward the two kids with his mouth curved. He said to the babysitter, "take them to play in the children's room."
Although the two boys playing aside didn't understand, they could still feel the stressful atmosphere.
So the elder brother Juezun said gently, "Dad, can you let this aunt go with us?"
It seemed to remind James that letting Christy leave could not only protect her but also help the mother and the children get along with each other.
"Of course." He agreed, as long as he agreed, Jing Lu wouldn't do anything to stop him.
But Jing wouldn't let go of Christy. She looked at the two brothers seriously, "Didn't grandma tell you that don't to a stranger?
"But she is not strange. She is familiar to us." Juezun made it clear.
His words made a stir in James's heart. It may only be taken as a kidding in other people's ears, however he knew that all was because they were mother and sons.
"No, how can you play with her the first time you see her?" Jing became even more suspicious, who knew what she would teach the two kids secretly. She had to protect them.
"Mom, it's not easy for the kids so like someone, why must you stop them? Shouldn't we be happy that they have such ability and enthusiasm?"
