After a day of work, Bruce wanted to send Maisy home. Thinking of the awkwardness today, she tactfully refused. After Jay arrived at her home, the task of picking up Lucas fell to him. If she bumped into him again, she wouldn’t be able to hide it.
“Then take care,” Bruce gently reminded her. He didn’t pester her too much.
Maisy walked into the elevator and couldn’t help but think of the kiss in the morning. Jay probably didn’t care anymore, right?
“Mom!” Just as she opened the door, Lucas bumped into her.
“What’s wrong?” Maisy smiled. “Why are you so happy today?”
“I got first place on the exam,” Lucas said sweetly. “Mom, bring me out to celebrate!”
Maisy was a little confused. “Don’t you often get first place? Is today’s first place special?”
“Whether it’s often or not, we have to encourage our child!” Jay’s tone was very serious, and Maisy was a little ashamed. She was usually very busy with work, and Lucas never wanted any rewards, so she was used to not rewarding him. Now that she heard Jay say this, she felt a little uncomfortable.
“Okay, what do you want to eat, Lucas?” Maisy touched her son’s head and asked gently.
“I don’t think food is the most important thing. I just want to have dinner with Mom and Dad tomorrow.” After saying that, Lucas glanced at Jay.
Maisy was stunned — she had never said that Jay was his biological father. However, Lucas was so smart, so it was normal that he figured it out. “Okay.” Maisy looked at her smart child, and her heart ached a little.
The next night, when she saw the father and son, who were dressed up, she suddenly felt that she had agreed too easily. “Isn’t it a family dinner? Why are both of you wearing formal clothes?” Maisy looked at the two of them helplessly.
“Mom, this is our first formal dinner together. We have to have a sense of ceremony.” Lucas was dressed in a formal suit that looked sophisticated. Maisy was a little stunned when she saw him. When she saw the rich and aloof Young Master Jay, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Since they were
treating the dinner so attentively, she should dress up properly.
“Wait for me for a moment. I will go and change into a formal gown.” Jay and Lucas nodded with a smile while looking very expectant. Maisy couldn’t remember how long it had been since she last wore a formal gown. Since she wasn’t used to such formal occasions, Bruce was the one who attended all the
company’s activities. She would only go if she really had no other choice. She looked at herself in the mirror. Perhaps she had grown up, but she no longer looked as out of place as before when wearing a gown.
Jay had always known that Maisy was good-looking. She had an irresistible sense of purity and beauty to her. But when he saw the woman in a long white dress, he was still stunned. She was so beautiful. Compared to a few years ago, she had lost some of her innocence and gained some mature charm.
“Let’s go,” Maisy urged.
Jay slowly moved closer to her ear. “You’re really beautiful today.”
Lucas was very curious about what his father had said along the way since his mother’s face had tumed so red afterwards.
“This is Mommy and Daddy’s secret!” Jay explained to Lucas in a low voice.
Upon seeing the father and son eat together, Maisy was in a good mood. No matter what, it was good that Lucas could spend more time with his father. Maisy picked up the red wine glass in front of her and couldn’t help but take another sip. Jay looked at the woman whose face had turned red from
drinking, and he felt a little tantalized..
