Edward Anderson dropped Bella Scott off at the family hall first, and she kissed both children's faces. Just as she was about to leave, Jessica suddenly said, "Mom used to say goodbye to dad with a kiss, but why doesn't she kiss dad now?"
Bella, of course, knew that the child was asking on purpose, with mischievous intentions.
"Little girl, behave and don't cause trouble!" Pinching the little one's face, Bella took a step back and entered the family hall.
Watching Bella's retreating figure, Jessica muttered, "Ai, mom doesn't like dad anymore, poor dad. Mom is so beautiful, and there are so many uncles pursuing her. Mom will soon be chased away by other uncles!"
She was upset that her father was not showing any enthusiasm towards her mother!
Edward remained silent, knowing that the child was trying to provoke him.
It was Cindy who chimed in, "Dad is a bit slow, and he doesn't deserve mom. Mom deserves a better man!"
