Chapter 369 The Father Of Rowan
After hesitating for a moment, she still said, “You and Ms. Moss…”
Christopher leaned back lazily and smiled, “Are you concerned about my romantic life?”
“I didn’t mean that,” Yuliana frowned slightly
Christopher said, “Don’t worry. She won’t bother you anymore.”
Yuliana’s frown deepened. She was not sure what Christopher meant. Did he comfort Elaine or break up with her?
Yuliana quickly pulled back her wandering mind and stopped thinking.
After that, Yuliana planned to go to Jasper’s house to find Rowan and Hailey. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Christopher followed her like a tagalong.
When they arrived at Jasper’s house, they heard the laughter of several children. They went in and saw
Hannah playing a chasing game called Duck, Duck, Goose with the kids.
Hannah was the protector, trying to protect the kids from being captured by the seeker.
Rowan, Jasper, and Annie were seeking protection behind her.
Annie’s mother was the seeker.
Hailey and the housekeeper of Jasper’s house were watching from the side and giggling happily.
The screams and laughter of the children filled the whole mansion.
“I got you!”
Annie’s mother grabbed Jasper, and they fell on the soft cushion together.
“That’s it. I need to catch my breath!” Annie’s mother let go of Jasper, sat on the cushion, and hurriedly waved her hand.
She glanced around and suddenly noticed something. She looked at the door and saw Yuliana walking in.
“Rowan’s mother is here!”
Hearing Annie’s mother’s words, everyone looked in the direction of the door.
“Just in time, Yuliana…”
Before Hannah could finish her words, she saw the man behind Yuliana.
Hannah had seen that man before. He brought Rowan to Jasper last time, and she heard Rowan call him “Mr. Coke.”
Besides, Rowan looked exactly like that man. One could tell at a glance there must be some kind of relationship between the two.
But Hannah had never asked Yuliana about it.
Seeing them coming together, she became more and more curious.
“Mommy, Mr. Coke!” Rowan loosened his grip on Annie’s clothes and ran toward Yuliana and Christopher.
“Mommy, Mr. Coke, have you finished your talk? Can you play with us? Let’s play together. Can you guys play with me?” Rowan said excitedly and kept gesturing with both of his hands.
As soon as he finished speaking. Annie’s mother joked, “Yuliana brought a handsome guy here!”
Yuliana was quite close with them, and they would often Joke around with one another.
Before Yuliana could speak, Jasper shouted, “He is Roe’s father!”
Hannah’s face changed. She hurriedly covered Jasper’s mouth and smiled at Yuliana embarrassedly. “The child is ignorant. Don’t listen to Jasper’s nonsense.”
Yuliana didn’t react much. Instead, she looked at Rowan beside her.
Rowan apparently heard Jasper. He looked confused. He grabbed Yuliana’s clothes nervously and glanced around at others, then at Christopher, before looking at Yuliana.
“Mommy…
Seeing Rowan’s sensitive and uneasy look, Yuliana also felt distressed. She stroked Rowan’s head gently and comforted him silently, “Roe, Annie is still waiting for you to join the game.” Annie’s mother hurriedly smoothed things over. “Annie, can you bring Roe here? Let’s continue the game.”
“Okay!” Annie agreed, trotted to Rowan, and took his hand. “Roe, let’s play.”
Rowan raised his head from Yuliana’s waist, his eyes brimming red. He stared at Annie for two seconds before nodding and following Annie.
The child forgot easily. After playing for a while, Rowan threw all the unhappy things to the back of his mind.
At this moment, Christopher played the seeker, and Hailey played the protector.
Hannah made Yuliana a cup of coffee. I know you like it cold, so I added some ice cubes.”
Yuliana took it and said thank you with a smile.
Hannah sat down beside her and said in a reserved tone, “Yuliana, Jasper was being untactful just now. Please don’t take it to heart. I want to apologize to you on behalf of him. In fact…”
Hannah was a little embarrassed to say it. Yuliana must have guessed the implication of the incident just now. Jasper was merely a three-year-old child. He knew nothing.
It must be the adults who gossiped, and the child overheard it. This was how Jasper knew about it.
“In fact, it’s my fault. The last time Mr. Solace brought Rowan here, I felt that Roe looked like Mr. Solace, so I gossiped a few words with my husband. Jasper might have overheard our conversation.”
Yuliana was indeed a little upset, especially when she saw Rowan’s sensitive and uneasy look.
But they were neighbors, and Rowan and Jasper were friends.
Yuliana didn’t want to have a grudge against Jasper’s family because of this.
“Hannah, don’t worry about it.”
Jasper’s mother’s was called Hannah White. She was two or three years older than Yuliana.
“I’m glad you don’t mind.”
Hannah breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of the reaction of Yuliana and Rowan just now, she wished she could sew her son’s mouth with a needle.
She looked at Christopher, who was playing with the children. Then, she looked at Yuliana. “Yuliana, am I guessing it right? Is Mr. Solace Rowan’s biological father? Don’t worry. I just want to confirm this with you out of curiosity. I promise I won’t tell anyone, even my husband.”
She was just curious.
Mr. Solace was so handsome and treated Rowan nicely. He looked like a perfect match for Yuliana. Besides, they had a cute son together. She wondered why they divorced.
Yuliana nodded. “You’re right. But I hadn’t told Rowan yet. He doesn’t know. Hannah, I hope you can tell Jasper not to mention this in front of Rowan for the time being.”
Hannah hurriedly nodded and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll lecture him later.”
Although Hannah looked careless, she was astute and had high emotional intelligence. She was good at managing her interpersonal relationships. This was why Yuliana only had a good relationship with Hannah after moving to Champs Manor for so long.
They stayed at Jasper’s house until lunchtime. Hannah invited Yuliana and Annie to stay over for dinner.
There was something coming up with Annie, so she didn’t stay.
Near lunchtime, Christopher received a phone call and hurried away.
In the end, only Yuliana’s family stayed at Jasper’s house for lunch.
But just when Yuliana was helping Hannah cook lunch, Yuliana’s phone suddenly rang.
She washed her hands, picked up her phone, and looked at it. Then, she paused and walked in the direction of the bathroom with her phone.
When she arrived at the bathroom, she locked the door and answered the call.
“Hello?”
“Ms. Livingstone.”
The man’s breath was weak, and Yuliana instantly noticed something was wrong, “What’s wrong with you?”
He exhaled slowly. “I got a little hurt, but I’ve got something. If it’s convenient for you, come here immediately. Those people won’t let me go. I’ll give you the thing and leave Juxshire immediately.”
He paused and added, “Remember to bring the money.”
Yuliana was nervous, and her heart beat wildly. “Okay, give me the address. I’ll come to you right away.”
