Chapter 678 The Encounter Of Rivals In Love
"Auntie April, won't you stay for dinner?"
Holding Hester's sleeve tightly, Thomas looked at her expectantly. It took him a lot of efforts to get her here, so he naturally didn't want her to leave.
Looking down at the small hands that were tightly holding her arms, Hester was in a dilemma. How could anyone refuse such a pitiful child? Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Noticing the hesitation in Hester's eyes, Terence sighed slightly, raised his hand and gently rubbed his son's hair, swaying in his heart!
"Thomas, don't make things difficult for Auntie April."
Thomas looked up at his father and turned to look at Hester, not knowing what to do. He had just calmed down and became anxious again.
Tears were about to fall, but he held them back. It was very pitiful.
"Auntie April, please stay and have dinner with me!"
Hester's eyes wandered around. She frowned and felt sad. She didn't dare to look at Thomas' eyes. It was really a fatal weakness of her life!
What's more, the situation today was a little special. Brother Austin was downstairs. Could she really make him wait?
"Thomas, forget it today. Let's do it another day! Auntie April came in a hurry today, and there is someone waiting for me at the door. It's really inconvenient!
Next time, I will stay and have dinner with you, okay?"
"Our house is so big. It won't matter if one more person stays for dinner. Auntie April, please ask the person at the door to come in and have dinner with us!"
Hearing this, Hester's mouth twitched violently. There was no problem at all. How should she refuse?
"Auntie Lisa, remember to ask the kitchen to prepare dinner for four people tonight. Auntie April wants to stay and have dinner with us!"
Without waiting for Hester's reply, Thomas got out of bed in a hurry, stood upstairs, grabbed the railing and shouted down.
Looking at Hester's hesitant face, Terence was lost in thought. He stood up, walked slowly to her, calmed down, and nodded slightly to apologize.
"Thomas is a little spoiled by me, and he is not doing things properly. It all depends on his mood. Please forgive him!"
Hester raised her head and forced a smile at the pair of black eyes.
"You're welcome, Mr. Terence. Brother Austin is still at the door. I'll call him in!"
Upset, she walked to the gate of the villa. Looking at the car, Hester frowned and didn't know how to explain it to Austin.
Her hands were clenched together, and she approached him slowly and hesitantly.
'According to Brother Austin's disgust with Terence, I'm afraid he won't agree to stay for dinner so easily. What should I say? Tell him directly that it was Thomas' idea, not Terence's?'
Austin shook the window and looked at Hester, raising his eyebrows slightly.
"What are you waiting for? Get in the car!"
Hester looked at Austin fawningly, hoping that he wouldn't be angry.
"Brother Austin, I have something to tell you. Don't be angry! "
An ominous thought flashed through Austin's mind, but he didn't show it on his face. With a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, he looked at Hester and nodded slightly.
Hester looked at Austin with a gleam in her eyes. Although she had received his promise, she was already uncertain about it.
"Thomas has been crying just now. He asked me to stay and have dinner with him. Brother Austin, you can go in with me!"
Austin's face gradually became serious, and the smile at the corners of his mouth disappeared. Although he had expected that what she said had something to do with Terence, it was inevitable that he would lose control.
The two of them were rivals in love. How could they sit at the same table calmly? Moreover, Terence had already guessed what had happened three years ago. How could he face him again?
"Brother Austin, are you angry?"
Hester thought for a while and asked tentatively. She looked at Austin's serious face nervously, feeling restless.
Although it was difficult to explain to Thomas, she cared more about Austin in her heart. As long as he said no, she would leave immediately without hesitation.
Austin sighed helplessly and got off the car unhurriedly. Looking down at her embarrassed look, his heart was pulled wantonly.
"I'm not angry. Don't think too much! As a child! It's normal for him to be sticky. How can I be angry?"
He looked at the woman in front of him affectionately and had mixed feelings. He didn't know how to express his inner thoughts.
In fact, he was the one who should say sorry. What was wrong with her? It was said that a mother and a son loved each other. Even if she didn't know the truth, she must have noticed that kind of wonderful connection!
"Okay!"
Hester was stunned for a few seconds and then raised the corners of her mouth. She held his arm with both hands and finally felt relieved.
Lisa's heart trembled when she saw Hester and Austin slowly walk in. She looked away and continued to do what she was doing.
"Mr. Austin, please have a seat!"
Terence said indifferently. He sat on the sofa with Thomas in his arms and looked away coldly, without the slightest intention of talking to him.
It fell into an extremely embarrassing atmosphere. Hester sat next to Austin, lowering her head. She didn't know what to say to ease the situation.
"Dad, I want to sit next to Auntie April!"
Thomas rubbed against Terence's knees and looked at his father pleadingly.
The expression on her face softened slightly. Hester looked at Thomas with gentle eyes. She was glad that such an innocent child was present, and she did save a lot of embarrassment!
"Since Thomas wants to sit on my side, Mr. Terence, let him be."
Nodding slightly, Terence held him down, with his hands on his knees, but he did not speak.
It was so embarrassing! Hester cried in her heart with a headache. Even if a child was present, it wouldn't work.
Holding Thomas tighter, she put her head on his chest and was thinking of solutions.
Austin sat there with a nervous expression. The milk fragrance of Thomas beside him stung his nerves, reminding him of what mistakes he had made.
Maybe the owner of the house was so depressed that even the servants were careful. Lisa put the dishes on the table and nodded.
"Sir, dinner is ready."
