Chapter 602 Family Happiness (Part Two)

"Haha, Cherry, you are so popular in the family. I heard that your husband and son used to fight for your love and now your son and daughter are competing for your attention. How I wish I could hold such a position in my own family. You know, I don't need to be so busy anymore. I will stay at home like a queen and ask them to serve me." Amy grinned widely. She liked the family atmosphere, where everyone teased each other and had fun.

"So, you are saying that Derek doesn't treat you well? Hah, I know for a fact that he spoils you too much. What else do you want?" Cherry questioned, grinning back.

"Don't say that! Since we had Alice, I am not the one getting spoiled anymore. He has shifted all his attention to his daughter," Amy complained outwardly, but Cherry could tell she didn't mind that.

"It's not like that! Daddy loves you very much! Don't you know Daddy carries you to the bedroom every night when you fall asleep on the sofa?"

Alice suddenly denied.

Alice's words made Jackson and Cherry laugh out aloud. Lawrence too joined in. Violet looked around in confusion, unable to understand what was so funny.

"Alice," Amy warned her, feeling awkward. Her daughter was too talkative.

"Aunt Cherry, what I said is true," Alice tried to convince Cherry.

"I trust you! It's absolutely true!" Cherry replied firmly and snickered, which satisfied Alice very much.

"Cherry, when did you become naughty like the kids?!" Amy was so embarrassed that she didn't know what else to say.

"That's fine. Mommy, let's go home now! When will Daddy be back? I miss him!" Alice asked, picking up her school bag. She lifted it on her back.

"He is already on the way," Amy answered. She turned to Jackson and Cherry, saying,"Jackson, Cherry, see you later. I am taking Alice home."

"Okay," Cherry nodded, a small smile on her face.

"Lawrence, Violet, bye!" Amy bid farewell to the children.

"See you!"

Lawrence and Violet responded as they saw Amy take Alice outside.

"Lily, is our dinner

“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.

“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.

Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...

We will go to school and take care of ourselves."

Her words touched Jackson and Cherry. They both smiled with satisfaction.

Cherry was so proud of her son. Lawrence had always been so sensible and thoughtful. He always knew what to do.

After dinner, Jackson accompanied Violet upstairs. Cherry and Lawrence sat in the living room and talked.

Lawrence clasped his mother's hand and put his head on her shoulder.

"Lawrence, take good care of Violet and yourself when Daddy and I are not home," Cherry reminded him once again. She still did not feel assured about her decision to be away.

"I will. Mommy, you and Daddy have to take good care of yourselves too. Especially Daddy. Tell him not to tire himself out with work." Lawrence was very understanding.

Cherry felt gratified. "Lawrence, you've grown up so much," she remarked with pride.

"Mommy, it must have been so hard for you to look after me. Now it's my turn to look after you and Daddy. I will study hard and make something of myself so that you live happily in the future," Lawrence said with confidence. His mother was always the most important person in his life. No one could replace her.

"Good boy! As long as you and Violet are happy and healthy, I will be content," Cherry responded.

"I always love you, Mommy," Lawrence called out with deep affection.
