My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1447

Vanessa did not even know how she walked out of the cafeteria. The only thing she knew was that her heart felt bitter the moment she heard the news. However, no matter how she felt, she had to hide it in her heart, because she was the one who rejected his proposal. She was the one who gave up on him first...

Hearing the news that Julien was getting engaged, the cafeteria immediately went into a commotion. Without bothering if Julien was still present, everyone began to discuss it amongst themselves.

"Mr. Kyle is getting engaged?"

"Is Mr. Kyle getting engaged to Vanessa?"

"I don't think it's Vanessa."

"You're right. How could the Kyle family allow a woman like Vanessa to marry into their family?"

After recovering from the shock, Joel took a deep breath and nerved himself to ask the question that everyone wanted to ask, "Mr. Kyle, you're getting engaged? Who is your fiancee?"

Julien replied, "Who else could it be other than Vanessa?"

Joel's jaw dropped. He was in so much disbelief that he could not utter a word at all.

Julien said, "What are you waiting for? Quickly prepare for it."

"Yes, Mr. Kyle." Joel answered quickly, but there were many things in his heart that he wanted to tell Julien. "My dear Mr. Kyle, Vanessa hasn't agreed to your marriage proposal, but you're announcing the engagement already. No offence but don't you think that it's unethical to do so?"

In the afternoon, Vanessa asked for a long leave because she had an appointment with the man who claimed to be Lawrie's father.

More importantly, she did not want to see Julien announcing his engagement with another woman with her own eyes. Even if she knew that this day would eventually come, she thought that it had come too early. She was not prepared to accept the reality yet.

Vanessa took the subway, and then took a bus. After a tough journey, Vanessa finally arrived at the appointed venue. However, the man called her on the phone and told her that he could not make it that afternoon.

Vanessa felt disappointed but at the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had repeatedly told herself to face this man who ruined her life, but when she was about to face him on her own, she would still be afraid, afraid that the memories of the past would drown her.

Vanessa found a place to sit at a nearby park and gave Harper Young a phone call. "Miss Young, that guy didn't show up today. I'm not sure if he had noticed something."

Harper said, "Vanessa, don't worry. Since he was the one who initiated the meeting, he will not give up before seeing you. Let's just wait and see."

"Okay," Vanessa answered as she looked blankly at the family of three passing by.

The man was carrying his son in his arms while holding his wife's hand. His wife comfortably leaned against his shoulder and pointed to the left. The man looked in the direction of the woman's finger and smiled.

His wife whispered into his ear and the man immediately lowered his head and planted a gentle kiss on his wife's cheek, making his wife reach out her hand and punch his chest abashedly.

Vanessa looked at the family of three intently. Looking at them, the three faces suddenly changed. The man became Julien, and the child became Lawrie. The woman who nestled on the man's shoulder was naturally her.

Julien pinched Lawrie's face and said, "Lawrie, tell Mommy that we love her. All she has to do every day is relax and look good. Both of us will take care of the chores at home."

Lawrie patted his chest and said, "Of course, Dad. We are men, we have to protect Mommy and take care of Mommy. We must let Mommy become the happiest and most beautiful woman in the world."

How nice it would be if all of this had really happened...

However, Vanessa knew that this was only a fantasy. It was something that could never be realized.

Tears gradually blurred Vanessa's eyes. She wiped her tears away and tried to hold them in. However, she couldn't. In the end, she gave up and let her tears flow out.

Vanessa did not know how long she had cried when a tender voice sounded in her ears. "Are you okay?"

Vanessa looked up and saw that it was the little boy from the family that she was looking at a while ago. The little boy looked at her worriedly and asked, "Did someone bully you?"

Vanessa shook her head. "No."

The little boy handed Vanessa a piece of tissue and said, "Don't be afraid. My father is very powerful. He is a hero that all bad guys are afraid of. He will protect all of us."

Vanessa looked towards the good- looking couple which was standing in a distance. They were smiling at her politely before and saying to the little boy, "Larry, you can play with her for a while.

We'll wait for you here, okay?"

There were many bad people in this world. Even her closest ones were thinking of ways to plot against her. However, this family who had just met her had given her warmth when she needed it the most.

Being able to meet such a lovely and kind family, the dark cloud hovering over Vanessa's head gradually dispersed. She wiped away her tears and smiled, "Thank you, Larry!"

Larry said cutely, "You're welcome!"

Vanessa pinched his face and asked, "You are Larry, right?"

Larry nodded, "Yes, my name is Larry. I'm three years old."

Vanessa said, "I have a son too. His name is Lawrie. He is also three years old."

Larry said in surprise, "You look so young but you have a son already?"

Vanessa smiled and said, "Yes, he is also a lovely and sensible child like you."

Larry said, "Can we be friends?"

Vanessa nodded. "Alright."

Larry said, "We are good friends now. My father is your father. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will let my father catch him."

Hearing his words, Vanessa burst into laughter. "Larry, your father is still young. Yes, we are friends, but he's more like a brother to me! How can he be my father?"

Larry scratched his little head and said, "But you are my friend."

Vanessa reached out and hugged him. "Larry, you're so cute."

Larry said, "Are you happy now?"

Vanessa said, "Yes, I've forgotten all the sad things, and I'm very happy now. Especially when I think of my lovely son, I'm even happier."

Larry held Vanessa's head and kissed her, "This kiss can make you happy every day. You mustn't wash it off, okay?"

Vanessa played along and said, "Wow, Larry's kiss is so magical. I must protect this kiss well and not wash it off."

Larry said happily, "Since you're happy now, I'm happy too. I'm going to find my mommy and daddy now. You should go home and be with Lawrie who is as cute as me."

Vanessa said, "Okie!"

"Bye!" Larry waved his little hands and walked towards his parents in wobbly steps. Halfway through, he looked back at Vanessa and said, "Make sure you stay happy every day."

Vanessa nodded. "Okay." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Goodbye!

Vanessa thought that she probably wouldn't get to see such a kind and lovely child ever again.

Vanessa watched as Larry and his parents walked away. At that moment, she thought that children who grew up in a loving family were really blessed.

Vanessa wondered how nice it would be if Lawrie could also grow up in such a family.
