Rose did not answer and remained silent. Because she did not care at all about her mother's past and was not curious.
She had also heard a few words. But she didn't know why her mother married her father.
Wilfred didn't care whether Rose would answer this question, but said, "Those things had been going on for decades. It all happened when your parents were young. I should not talk to you. After all, she is your mother. In the heart of the child, mother should be gentle and beautiful. I shouldn't ruin her image in front of you."
"No, Grandpa. You are wrong. She was never one of those nice mothers. She is your daughter, and I don't want to ruin her image in front of you." Rose didn't tell Wilfred about what happened between her and her parents.
"As you said, your mother is not a nice daughter either." Wilfred sighed heavily, "Your grandmother and I have been harmless and honest in our lives. But we have a daughter who even despises human life. Your mother killed a man to be with your father. I don't know if she will have nightmares when she sleeps."
"Grandpa, my mother is strong and living a happy life now. You don't have to worry that she won't be able to sleep." Rose felt that people like her parents never had any conscience. That was why they weren't afraid of anything. All they cared about was money and power, and profit.
Wilfred gently let out a long sigh of relief and stared at Rose.
"Grandpa, don't think too much about it. Get some rest. I'm going to pack and will come to call you for dinner later." Rose then got up and left.
She went out of Wilfred's bedroom and walked to the living room. Bright and Doris were gone.
"Mrs. Lee, Mr. Lee has taken Doris upstairs." Ms. Phillis, who was hired to take care of Wilfred, said.
"Thank you." Rose responded politely, then held the stair railing and went upstairs.
When Rose went up to the second floor and headed towards the bedroom, she saw Bright coming out of Doris' room.
Bright also caught a glimpse of her and walked towards her. He took her hand in his hand, "Doris got sleepy as soon as she arrived home and just fell asleep."
"..." Rose thought Doris was still excited when they were going home in the car, "It'll be time for dinner in a few minutes."
"It's good for her to get a half-hour nap. Besides, she fell asleep quickly." Bright pushed open the door to the room and pulled her into the bedroom.
He asked Rose, "Are you tired?"
"I'm okay." His concern made Rose feel his care for her in details, "Would you like to go take a shower and change your clothes first?"
"That is what I want." Bright pinched her chin, "The one who knows me is Mrs. Lee."
"Hey, stop it." Rose reached out to pull his hand off her chin. But Bright pinched it tightly and didn't have any intention of letting go.
Being pinched, Rose had no choice but to look up to meet his eyes. His eyes were bright and very charming.
"Don't you have to take a shower?" why was he seducing her now?
"Come with me." Bright's voice was extremely hoarse.
"I still have to pack. You go first." Rose felt her face hot, "I'll get your pajamas."
Rose tried to break free of him. He let go in return.
"It's not time to go to bed now. So, I do not need pajamas." Bright then walked to the bathroom.
Rose watched Bright enter the bathroom, looked away and saw the suitcase and bags that he had carried up. She pushed them into the dressing room, then flattened and opened them, sorted out the clothes inside and hung them up, or folded them and put them in the drawer.
She was so focused on packing. While hanging her clothes, she was hugged by Bright who had just bathed. It was not until then that she realized that she fell into his strong and broad chest.
