Chapter 217 Housekeeping

“Am I an unqualified mother?” Kate suddenly asked, at this point she changed into a light silk pajama, combed her hair in front of the dresser, but looked at herself in the mirror in a daze and seemed unhappy.

“How?” Adrian walked behind Kate and gently touched her face, "the little guy loved you, and you were with her more than me, weren't you? To say no, I am.” [Search latest updates all over]

“But...” Kate looked like she had stopped talking. Half a dozen moments later, she looked up at him and whispered again: “I shouldn't have let her cry where she was alone. Lily was less than three years old, how could she understand all this? ”

She raised her eyebrows and Adrian couldn't help but smile. He finally understood what she was depressed about. It was... so funny. After Kate's eyes grew more dissatisfied, Adrian closed her smile and coughed softly: "No, no, no, you're wrong, darling, the more children, the more she should know what was right and what was wrong. If you feel nothing at first, you will end up drowning, which is not good for your child's growth. You know, I love Lily no less than you do, but I still insist. ”

As he lowered his head and kissed Kate on the corner of her mouth, her eyes clearly softened, but Adrian finally couldn't stand it and laughed badly: “Anyway, don't think about it so much, Lily is your daughter after all. ”

“Ed” Kate immediately raised her voice, but this did not obscure the embarrassment and annoyance in her eyes.

After Sarah picked up Lily, the little guy hung around her and nobody cared. Even after Sarah's comfort, she led her to dinner with Mom and Dad, but nobody cared, only wanting to spin around Sarah. The negative resentment was so obvious on her face that she even slept with Sarah at night.

The little guy didn't make a scene, but just holding Sarah's crook in tears was enough to beat Sarah. So Sarah had to stay with the little guy's gum tonight, and as Lily's mother, Kate would feel that it was a normal thing to eat, and with Sarah's relationship with Adrian, that feeling was even stronger.

“Well, Kate, it's no big deal, I bet, by tomorrow morning, everything will be fine.” Adrian said, one hand slipped into the clothes that were wide open, with the collarbone exposed.

Kate moaned softly and softened, looking at Adrian with a complicated and helpless look, leaving him to carry himself across to bed and have a passionate evening coming up.

If I hadn't noticed something, Kate, full of fatigue, really didn't want to open her eyes. Adrian was so tormented that he plowed it from top to bottom, from front to back. If I hadn't wanted to get pregnant, I was afraid he'd throw it inside again. Even so, he still poured it behind him, and the shivering sensation was now felt, so... so annoying.

In her wild thoughts, Kate finally opened her eyes, and then she opened her eyes and stopped, because right on the edge of the bed, a pair of slippery eyes were looking at her without blinking.

“Ha, darling, you woke up before me...” Adrian's voice sounded in her ear at this time, Kate screamed badly in her heart, about to open her mouth, the other hand in the quilt moved, followed by a kiss on her shoulder, which is a daily affection.

“Wait, Ed, wait...” Kate shouted in an awkward tone. Luckily, the eyes revealed a puzzling look, but nothing else.

Adrian quickly noticed that she was wrong, and then stopped. She raised her head and stunned like Kate. After a while, she asked embarrassingly: “Lily? How did you... get here? ”

“I came to see Mom.” The little guy whispered and then got a little rushed, "The bedroom door wasn't locked, so...”

Her eyes turned and she didn't know what she was thinking. Half a minute later, Kate said, “Is there something wrong, baby? ”

“I want to... apologize.” Lily said, bowing her head, her hands behind her back, and her honest appearance was very painful.

“Uh-oh, baby, this is...” Kate, struck by tremendous joy, was a little overwhelmed, trying to get up and hug her daughter, but realizing that she and Ed were wearing nothing under the quilt.

“I'm glad to hear you say that, darling. Can you give me and your mother a few minutes to get dressed?” Adrian said at this time.

The little guy nodded and turned around and gently pulled the door up. Then the two people in the bed jumped off quickly and quickly began to get dressed and wash. Kate was obviously very happy, not only with a smile on her face all the time, but she was still humming an unknown note in the bathroom, making Adrian smile in her eyes.

“Hey, baby, we're good.” After a brief cleanup, Kate opened the door and although the scenery in front of her made her stand still, it didn't affect her good mood.

The little guy was standing on the side of the hallway listening to Sarah whisper, and she touched her head with pity and looked very close. But when Lily saw her mother, she came to her side and hit her head into her arms and held her.

“I'm sorry, Mom.” The little guy said in a whisper.

“Oh, it's okay, baby, it's okay... Mom... it's not angry anymore.” Kate, who squatted down and held her daughter in her arms, said with some excitement.

Of course, she wasn't overexcited and quickly noticed what Adrian's mouth, walking out the back, said to her silently and pointed at her in the bedroom. Kate came over and nodded slightly, lifting her daughter into the room.

“Well done, Sarah.” Adrian retracted his eyes and smiled at the girl next to him.

“Nothing,” she shrugged with a smile, "Lily was a very smart and lovely child, and I just told her a little bit, and she realized, I didn't react so quickly when I was two. You really shouldn't have done that to her, Ed. You know, when I started guiding the conversation, she asked me the first thing I said:" Don't Mom and Dad want me anymore? ”

“Really?” Adrian smiled, slowly walking in front of her, "If you hadn't plugged in all of a sudden, it would have been over. Lily was really smart, and she would have realized she was wrong, even though she didn't know where the roots were, and your presence had dramatically prolonged the time, Sarah. ”

“Really?” Sarah asked uncomfortably.

“Isn't it?” Adrian then questioned, staring at her face.

“All right,” the young lady defeated quickly, "you always do, anyway, you don't make mistakes, even if things go wrong, people don't do what you say. ”

It was obviously a little cheating, so Adrian laughed, holding one against the wall behind Sarah, and approaching her face: "That's not what you said, Sarah. ”

“What should I say?” Feeling his breath, the girl's eyes became a little foggy, and the divine color brought temptation, even sticking out her little tongue and licking the corner of her mouth gently, "Kate couldn't satisfy you? ”

If that were Sarah two years ago, it would never be possible to say, but with age eventually maturing, coupled with the fact that Love had been persuaded by her, that they were best friends in front of the media, it would be normal to * * people.

“That's rude, Sarah, not a lady at all.” Adrian squeezed her chin and gently kissed her on that delicate lip.

“But you're not a gentleman now, and Kate's still in there.” In spite of that, Sarah smiled and kissed and put her hands on his shoulder.

But soon she pushed him away, with some awkward low coughing, Adrian picked an eyebrow, and then looked back and became a little awkward. This, of course, is not because Kate stood at the door with a smiley, non-smiling look, but because the little one was standing in front of her mother, her little mouth looking at her father with confusion, confusion and confusion... Aunt Sarah.

“Apologized to Mom?” Adrian quickly recovered from nothing, squatting down in front of Lily and squeezing her daughter's flesh-face.

Lily nodded unconsciously and hugged Daddy again: "I want you to apologize too, Daddy. ”

“It's okay, honey, you don't understand why Dad asked you to do this right now, and you'll find out someday. Anyway, Mom and I love you very much.” Adrian smiled and kissed her daughter's forehead.

Lily nodded again, seemingly incomprehensible, but her puzzled eyes swept away between Dad and Aunt Sarah, Sarah staying where she was and not talking, and Kate was completely a joke reader.

“Well, is there a problem, dear?” Adrian thought about it and simply asked.

“You and... you and Aunt Sarah... why...” Lily hasn't said a complete word for half a day. After all, she understands fewer words and doesn't know what that means.

“That's how I expressed my friendship and affection for Sarah, only the closest person would.” After Adrian's words came out, Sarah's mouth snapped, almost laughed, and Kate's divinity got weird.

“The closest person?” Lily blinked her eyes.

“Yes, have you seen me do this to Mrs. Barron? Has this ever happened to Ms. Abigail?” Adrian Sha nodded with a meddling nod.

“Where's Aunt Charlie?” The little guy crooked his head and asked.

“Well, yes, Charlie is also the closest person.” Adrian coughed dry, Sarah pinched her head over, her shoulders trembled slightly, seemed to be struggling, Kate's face grew worse and she felt some biting.

Adrian squinted her eyes and swept them away. After her daughter made an ooh, she said again: "And not only will Dad do this, but Mom will do the same. ”

“That's what Mommy wants?” Liliton looked at Mom with amazement, and Kate and Sarah turned to Adrian with amazement.

“Yes, it's our hospitality, and as long as it's our closest friend, your mother and I are passionate about it.” Adrian smiled funny and lifted Kate's chin, indicating that it was her turn.

How could you... Kate stared at Adrian and then looked at Sarah, and she stood there weirdly, wondering what she was thinking.

How do I explain that to Lily? All right, let's get this over with. Give it a kiss. It's gonna be okay. Adrian responded with his eyes, and he kept saying, "Come on, Kate, let's go downstairs for breakfast. ”

Kate's chest fluctuated a few times and was forced to walk up to Sarah, looking at her with a fake smile. Sarah's eyes were a little dodgy at first, but when Kate arrived, she calmed down and even hid some expectations.

The two stood face-to-face for seconds without moving, raising their hands easily, but they always encountered a difficult position to adjust together, clumsy as two low-level puppets. After such a threesome, some impatient Sarah suddenly punched Kate's hands down and kissed her mouth with her face in her arms. Kate opened her eyes wide, but then controlled her emotional yield and hugged Sarah.

There was no sucking or tangling, the two were just dragonflies with a few dips of water and then separated. Later, the two of you looked at me, and I saw you, and Sarah suddenly burst out laughing, Kate's mouth twitched a few times, finally bent the curve unbearably, and the gap between them dissipated.

“See, I didn't lie to you.” Adrian whispered in his daughter's ear at the moment, and the little guy looking at her mother and Aunt Sarah nodded obliviously.

This is Adrian's chores. Not surprisingly, children, even with a nanny, don't be too carefree. Besides, he loves this daughter. Instead of worrying too much, the women around them would adjust to themselves, and Adrian had the means, such as the night of the award ceremony, when she was alone with Gwyneth, who was still a little upset, and he said he would surprise her soon.

“Ladies and gentlemen, one of the items at the auction below is very special, and it is a precious sapphire necklace. This sapphire was once embedded in the crown of Louis XVI, cut off after Louis XVI broke its head, and the largest piece was processed into a heart shape, creating a sapphire necklace called the Heart of the Sea, which was sold by the son of a king of steel in the United States at the beginning of the century, but then sank into the ocean on the Titanic as the ship hit the iceberg, and almost 100 years later, the necklace was finally successfully fished to see the sun again." The host, who spoke loudly, stopped, swept the whole scene and smiled again: “All this came from last year's greatest film, the Titanic."

The laughter sounded suddenly, and everyone was laughed at by the host's humor. At the same time, they revealed their curiosity. What was next to be auctioned?

“But one thing's for sure,” the host's voice sounded, “and what's coming up for auction is really the heart of the ocean."

With his voice, a medium-sized transparent glass box was brought up with a human front chest model, and the model was hung with a series of brilliant necklaces. The sapphire at the bottom was particularly attractive, and for a moment, the voice of the hall joining the ears was constantly reflected.

“This necklace is Titanic, the producer of this film, Adrian? Mr. Corwell commissioned the Fields jewelry store in London, made with a flawless Ceylon sapphire pulled out of it, and participated in the film, which is exactly the necklace you see in the film.” The moderator said constantly, "Mr. Adrian also registered the name Ocean Heart, so only this sapphire necklace that crossed the Titanic and witnessed a great love is the true Ocean Heart, which has a low price of $4 million, bid now."

As soon as the voice goes down, one person raises the sign and adds 500,000, and immediately more people start to raise the price, even though there are not many sapphire necklaces, but there are also many, as long as you have the money, you can entrust the jeweler to make one. But the name "Heart of the Sea" has changed since it was registered, not to mention the fact that it was involved in filming the entire film, and these unique attributes naturally increase its price.

In just a few minutes, the price doubled and finally stopped after reaching 9 million. The last time she called was a middle-aged woman, who had called several times in a row, apparently obsessed with this precious and beautiful necklace.

“Nine million, first time.” The moderator waited for a moment and shouted, “Nine million, second time. ”

Without a third shout, there were signs up in the back rows: 10 million.

“There's a gentleman out there at 10 million. Is there a higher price?” The moderator called immediately.

The proud lady changed her face and hesitated before raising the brand.

“The lady is up to 11 million. Is there a higher price?” As soon as the host's voice went down, the sign in the back was raised again.

“Thirteen million. That gentleman bids thirteen million. Is there any higher?” The moderator's voice was a little higher.

The face of the noble woman became much whiter and she couldn't help but hold her hand again after biting her teeth for a moment, but the middle-aged man who did not know whether it was her husband or who held her hand, whispered a few words in his ear, the noble woman suddenly showed a stunned look, turned her head and looked back, then shook her head in dismay and unwillingness.

“13 million, 13 million for the first time, 13 million for the second time, 13 million for the third time. Mr. Cowell” the moderator struck the gavel.

Then, in public, an assistant delivered the beautiful box to Adrian. He opened it, looked it up, smiled, and lifted the necklace to the girl sitting next to him: "Try it on.".
