You're The Best Medicine For Me
Chapter 93 The Inner Voice Of The Children

Upon hearing this, Shirley Thomas sat up straight, stared angrily and anxiously at Mildred Walker and said, "Mildred, don't say anything weird in front of the kids."

"I'm not saying anything weird, Shirley. Even Emma Thomas can see that something's not sitting well with you. Do you think you can hide it from me? I am your reborn mother, Shirley, I can tell what my daughter is thinking instantly." Mildred gestured while saying in a motherly tone.

After all, Mildred did give Shirley another chance to live. Hence, Shirley had seen Mildred as her reborn "mother", Mildred also got herself a new, adult "daughter".

They would joke about this occasionally when chit-chatting.

This time, however, it panicked Shirley instead, "I'm not hiding anything, don't be ridiculous."

Mildred sat up straight, patted Shirley on her shoulder and said, "That's not true. I can see for myself. When you went to Sapphire restaurant, both of you were chit-chatting in the car for quite some time, Emma then came to replace you. You've been absent-minded ever since you left the car. Tell me, just what on earth did Bryan Moore say to you inside the car? You even managed to hurt yourself so badly when drinking some soup, and you're blushing, too."

Shirley subconsciously touched her face with both of her hands.

It seemed like her face was blushing and warm for the whole night, it was never in a normal state.

And then, her feelings were exposed by Mildred, causing her to cover up her feelings-presenting face even more.

The car came to a halt in front of the villa's gate.

Shirley looked the other way and said, "We're talking about work, did you not go to the banquet organized by my tutor? We're chatting about the auction. Come on now, we've reached the place." She quickly opened the door and wanted to leave the car.

Mildred grabbed her arm and said, "Wait! We'll make things clear right here, right now."

"Why do you care?" said Shirley while angrily staring at her, "You're better off worrying about yourself. I'll be meeting with Kevin Mitchell tomorrow, are you coming?"

Mildred's eyes shined like the sun, raised her eyebrows and said, "Of course! Please let me tag along whenever you meet Kevin in the future."

"No worries. Tomorrow, I will bring Kevin somewhere else, giving you and that boy some space and a chance to go at it, alright?" said Shirley. Seeing as Mildred was not persisting on asking her about Bryan anymore, she slowly let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Come on now, get out of the car."

"You better remember to give us that chance tomorrow, okay?" said Mildred, as she bit her lips and started blushing.

Shirley tapped Mildred's forehead lightly and said, "Yeah, yeah, okay."

After they got out of the car, Shirley brought the two kids into the villa's yard.

Daisy then brought the kids to shower.

After showering, Jacob Thomas went into his room and took out a watch from his pocket. He then pressed on the 'video call' button on the watch.

A blue ray shined from the watch, projecting itself on a wall in front of it.

A very handsome face then appeared in front of Jacob.

He clenched his little fists out of excitement, and whispered, "Daddy."

Thinking that his daddy is living in the same villa as him, Jacob was very excited, to the point where he wanted to cheer out loud.

Alas, his mummy was right outside, he could not even speak out loudly.

The man in the projection smiled warmly and asked, "Do you like this watch?"

"I like it a lot. Can I call you any time I wanna see you in the future, daddy?" asked Jacob.

Bryan said, "Absolutely, you can see me whenever you miss me."

Jacob said, "If anyone bullies Emma in school, can I replace daddy too?"

Bryan said, "I am your daddy, if anyone bullies both of you, of course you can replace your daddy."

Jacob smiled, showing his pearl white teeth and blinked while asking, "Daddy, what did you say to mummy in the car tonight?"

Bryan was startled, he never thought that this little kid would ask him something like that.

He pointed on his forehead, frowning slightly and said, "That's a secret between me and your mummy, can daddy not tell you about that?"

After all, it was inappropriate to mention some problems regarding the kids right in front of them.

Jacob was not in a hurry, however, he sat on a sofa, shook his legs and said, "Just now, Aunt Mildred even said that mummy loves you, and she almost made mummy admit it. That's why I'm wondering, what did daddy say to mummy, and made her so careless when eating."

When Bryan heard what Jacob said, he felt excited and asked, "What did Aunt Mildred say to your mummy?"

"You tell me first, what did you say to mummy?" replied Jacob.

Bryan chuckled resignedly. This smart little kid was definitely his kin, he knew it even without doing a DNA test.

Both of them were alike, ranging from their appearances to IQ.

At that moment, someone was knocking on the door.

The originally calm and collected Jacob got scared, got down from his sofa, and told Bryan, "Mummy is on the other side of the door, I am going to turn this off for now."

"You can press the yellow button to hide the projection." Replied Bryan. He just wanted to listen to Shirley's voice. Even though they were separated only thirty minutes ago, her image was stuck in his mind and it was refusing to leave.

Jacob followed his instructions and pressed the yellow touch screen button, the projection of Bryan on the wall disappeared immediately.

Then, he walked to the door and unlocked it.

Shirley, who was holding Emma's hand, pushed open the door worriedly, and said, "Jacob, didn't mummy tell you to not lock the door when you're alone in your room? Why did you lock the door? Mummy called you for so long, but you're not opening the door."

"Mummy, I locked the door accidentally. I played a lot tonight, so I am tired and fell asleep as soon as I lied down on my bed." Jacob pretended to be tired and rubbed his eyes.

Shirley checked the time, it was already 10:32 p.m., she usually sent her kids to bed at 9 p.m. sharp.

"Then, you should let your sister sleep with you." Shirley said and held Jacob's hand, then she brought them into the children's room.

The children's room was larger than other rooms in the Spennor Residence, it's two rooms joint together with a door connecting both rooms.

However, Emma was afraid to sleep alone, so Shirley brought the kids into one of the rooms.

Both of the kids got on the bed and lied down.

Shirley sat next to them, placed her hand on Emma's forehead, patted her gently and said, "Close your eyes, and sleep."

"Mummy, can we let daddy come to our house to eat and live here? I wish for a day where daddy can come and put me to sleep. If daddy and mummy can sleep together with us, it would be great." When Shirley heard the words "sleep together", her heart skipped a beat, got startled, and instantly thought of the night where she struggled with Bryan.

"Emma, only husband and wife sleep together. Both of us...we're not a couple, we can't sleep together with you two."

"You can marry daddy then," Emma's eyes widened, as she clenched her fists in excitement, "If mummy marries daddy, the four of us will be together as a family."00000
