In a high-class place like The Sovereign Club, Barbara Sutton would feel at a loss, and here with Finn Morgan, it’s no different.
She feels she was born ordinary, living at the bottom of society, while everyone around her seems to have a natural halo.
An uncontrollable sense of inferiority envelops her.
Although President Lane tries to take care of her emotions and chats with her, ultimately they aren’t alike, and Barbara Sutton understands that.
Half an hour later.
Justin Kingston, Mia Lane, and Barbara Sutton went downstairs.
"Get in the car, Barbara." Mia Lane opened the rear car door, without any airs, just like a friendly neighbor.
After Barbara Sutton got in, Mia Lane joined her.
Leaving her alone in the back seat would make her very awkward.
Justin Kingston was driving and asked Barbara Sutton for her address.
"I feel so embarrassed." Barbara Sutton was very nervous, her voice lightly trembling, "to have you giving a ride."
"It’s nothing." Justin Kingston held the steering wheel, his voice magnetic and gentle, "It’s on the way anyway." This was sothing CEO Kingston would have said to her—one of the few words outside of work.
"..." Warmth filled her heart, and the words of gratitude were kept inside.
"Barbara, is your mom feeling better?" Mia Lane turned to look at her, asking with concern.
Barbara Sutton replied, "She’s much better, thank you for your concern, President Lane." Then apologetically, she said, "I’ll definitely pay back the money I owe you as soon as possible."
Mia Lane didn’t even take the matter of the money to heart.
"I didn’t an it like that..." Mia Lane was a bit embarrassed, smiling as she explained, "I wasn’t asking about the money, I was just thinking of your mom."
"I know." Barbara Sutton’s lips lightly curved, "You didn’t ask, but I’ve always rembered."
"The money’s not urgent." Mia Lane shook her head, fully aware of her salary, "Actually, you don’t have to repay it at all, I just worry you’ll feel uncomfortable about it, so pay it back whenever you want, really, there’s no rush at all."
Listening to her words, Barbara Sutton felt incredibly touched inside, not knowing what to say.
She thought President Lane was very nice, extrely kind, and very low-key, empathizing with the struggles of the world.
Under the night sky, Justin Kingston drove Barbara Sutton back to her rented apartnt, and when getting off, Mia Lane reminded her, "Rest early tonight, see you tomorrow."
"Okay, goodbye President Lane." She waved her hand, "Goodbye CEO Kingston."
"Goodbye."
Watching the Lamborghini start up again and drive out of sight, she then headed towards the entrance hall.
Justin Kingston took Mia Lane to Clearwater Bay.
"Mommy’s back in town?" Gigi hurried downstairs, looking excitedly at Mary, joy overflowing, "Is this true? She’s coming over soon?"
"She should be here very soon." Mary was very happy too.
At this mont, a car light ca in, and the children looked out into the yard. When the car stopped, they could clearly see the model.
"It’s Daddy’s car!!"
"Yay!!"
Then they ran outside, and Mary quickly followed, "Be careful! Don’t run! Be sure not to fall!"
In the yard, Justin Kingston and Mia Lane got out of the car.
"Daddy! Mommy!"
Dolly rushed into Justin Kingston’s arms, and Mia Lane bent over to pick up Gigi!
"You little rascal, have you gained weight again?" Mia Lane felt a bit unable to carry him—he was indeed heavier.
Mary ca out, quickly greeted them with a smile, "Hello Mr. Kingston, hello madam, Gigi has gained five pounds during this ti, and Dolly has gained two pounds."
Their faces look rounder, skin is better too, making them even more adorable.
"Is the food at Grandma’s house this good?" Mia Lane was very happy, Kristina Kingston has truly changed completely.
"I like eating braised pork!" Gigi reported, "I also really like braised eggplant, it’s super delicious! The cooking is almost like Mommy’s."
Justin Kingston held Dolly, his large fatherly hands supporting his daughter’s chubby little bottom, Dolly wrapped around his neck.
The father and daughter chatted happily.
Dolly even gave Daddy a peck on the cheek, innocently declaring her love, "Daddy, Dolly loves you!"
"Daddy loves Dolly too." Just Kingston’s heart nearly lted; such monts made him feel trendously happy.
"Daddy, who do you love the most?" Dolly began the tough question, "Do you love brother or Mommy the most? Or is it ?"
