Then she swiped to answer the call.

“Hey, it’s me.”

“OK.”

Dolores looked down, walking back to the living room. She didn’t speak first. Instead, she just held the phone, waiting for him to speak again.

“I’m downstairs of your apartment. Do you have time now? I want to meet you,” said Sampson.

He only spoke again after they both were silent for a moment.

Dolores answered him with a faint hum. She hung up the phone and took off the apron. Then she walked to Samuel’s room and knocked on the door. “Samuel, I have something to deal with downstairs. Grandma will be back soon. Don’t go out, OK?”

Samuel was standing next to the window, looking down. He saw Sampson talking to Jessica downstairs. Hearing Dolores’ voice, he answered, “Got it.”

Dolores changed into her shoes and went downstairs. In the park, Sampson was talking to Jessica. He wanted to hold Simona, but Jessica refused him. “She’s quite naughty,” she made an excuse.

Jessica never had rejected him before.

This time Sampson definitely felt the alienation from her.

Since she knew that Sampson’s mother had gone to Dolores and realized that he couldn’t marry Dolores, Jessica naturally couldn’t treat Sampson as dearly as before.

After all, in the past, she used to see Sampson as her future son-in-law.

Hence, from now on, she couldn’t continue being enthusiastic to bring him and her daughter together.

It was also unnecessary for the kids to be so intimate with him.

“Excuse me, Aunt Jessica. Did I do anything wrong?” Sampson asked.

“Nope. Nothing goes wrong.” Jessica hurriedly waved her hand, trying to explain, “This little girl doesn’t feel well these days. I’m just afraid she’ll cry.”

“I’ve watched her grow up since her childhood and she’s familiar with me. She won’t cry if I just hold her.”

“Good evening, Sampson.”

Dolores rushed over. “Mom, it’s getting cold now. Please take Simona back home.”

“OK.” Jessica said farewell to Sampson and left in a hurry with Simona in her arms.

“Had dinner yet?” Dolores asked.

Sampson smiled slightly. “I haven’t. Would you cook for me?”
