Chapter 245: I’m Not Leaving (2)
"Let go of me first. The security guard needs to get off work, and Axel can’t stay there." Carolline wanted to leave, but someone was holding her hand tight, seemingly lost in thought. Carolline had to speak up to remind him.
Bryan Cooper finally let go of Carolline’s hand, and she walked forward. In a short time, Bryan caught up with her, and when Carolline arrived, Axel was already holding Bryan’s hand.
"Let’s have dinner together, Carolline?" Bryan suggested, having had a casual breakfast and lunch today. He wanted to treat his wife and son to a rich dinner.
"I’m busy tonight..." Carolline subconsciously wanted to refuse. In fact, she didn’t have anything going on, but she was worried about Celia Wade’s poor health. She had originally planned to take Axel to Celia’s house and cook dinner for her.
"Mom, you said we shouldn’t lie. You’re not working the night shift tonight. Let’s invite grandpa and have dinner with dad, okay?" Axel thought Carolline would say she had to work the night shift, so he immediately exposed her.
The reason Axel remembered Carolline’s night shifts so clearly was that when she worked, she couldn’t tell him bedtime stories. He preferred Carolline’s bedtime stories.
"..." What an ungrateful son! For a moment, Carolline felt that she had raised him in vain for over five years. She gave Axel a white-eyed look. Had she ever said she was going to lie?
"That’s right. Our son said we shouldn’t lie. As parents, we should set a good example." Bryan also sided with Axel, and the father and son teamed up to criticize Carolline.
