Chapter5# It's my daddy

Victor Miller didn't want to talk about this topic in the first place. After being asked three questions by her, he felt that it was all nonsense. Marriage and children?

Is it possible? She is only 24 and graduated with a master's degree this year.

At most, she has a boyfriend.

But whether she has a boyfriend or not... to him, it really doesn't matter.

What does her ex-girlfriend's relationship have to do with?

He was just provoked by her few words... and couldn't help but ask back casually.

Victor Miller was really too lazy to talk, so he turned his face away and started the state of "I don't know you well, don't bother".

Alice Jones smiled and could see all the expressions on his face. Seeing this, she didn't bother him.

Anna glanced at the atmosphere at the dinner table and took the initiative to change the topic with Mike: "Senior brother is getting married? Congratulations."

"Thank you, I will come and play with Alice then." Mike nodded in thanks.

Anna asked, "Who is your girlfriend? Look at that beauty. She has captured our school's former male god so early." Mike's tone was much gentler, and he said, "Sophia, Alice's cousin, is also from our school." "Ah, Sophia?" Anna was surprised, very surprised, "What about a doctor of law? Graduated two years ago, working at Wilson Law Firm?" Mike nodded. Anna took a deep breath, full of worshipful eyes, "Sophia is amazing, and you are amazing too, senior brother." "No." He said modestly. "She seems to be a little older than you, right? No wonder you got married right after graduation, you're afraid she'll wait." Mike smiled and didn't deny it. Anna was full of envy again, turned her head and said to Alice Jones, "A perfect couple! Oh my God." Alice Jones nodded, "Yeah, yes." After saying that, she glanced at the man opposite her, then her eyelids slightly closed, her eyes fell on the plate in front of him. She reached out to pick up the eggplant, but the plate was a little far from her...

Victor Miller noticed it. Although he didn't say anything, he still brought it to her and changed the seat.

Alice Jones thanked him, and then continued to chat naturally: "You didn't go home after returning to China?"

Victor Miller was from Taipei like her, but his parents were divorced, and he didn't have any contact with his father. His mother now lives in Lan City, not here.

He heard it and hummed lightly, "Not yet, something."

Alice Jones: "Wait to attend Mike's wedding?"

Victor Miller shook his head.

Mike explained on the side: "My wedding is still a long way off. Victor is renovating a few places in the house after receiving the house. He will go back after he finishes it."

Alice Jones was surprised and raised her eyes: "You bought a house here?"

"Yeah." He responded lightly.

"Are you going to develop here in the future?" She seemed to be unaware of his plan.

Before, she only heard Mike say that he would work here, but she didn't know he bought a house.

Victor Miller nodded calmly, adding, "I'm from Taipei."

"Oh~" Alice Jones' tone rose slightly without any expression.

"..."

Alice Jones said, "Do you think this restaurant is still delicious? It seems that the taste has not changed since you first brought us to the dormitory to eat until now, and it is as perfect as ever."

"Yeah, it's not bad. Did I bring you here?"

"Yes, sophomore year."

Alice Jones licked her lips and thought, "Really?" After she finished speaking, she looked at the man who was picking up food elegantly opposite her, "I think it was you who brought me here for the first time?"

Victor Miller: "..." His chopsticks stopped.

Mike immediately glanced at him: "Damn, we had dinner together a lot at that time, and every time we said where to eat, you said it was up to you and didn't express your opinion. We came to this restaurant several times and I never saw you praise it. As a result, you arranged for your girlfriend to come and enjoy it together in private?"

Victor Miller: "..."

Anna smiled secretly and ate another bite of the food silently. It was really good. Victor Miller glanced at Alice Jones. She ate a few bites of eggplant, and the last bite accidentally dropped the soup on the sleeve of her white shirt. She wiped it with a tissue, but it was not wiped clean.

Alice Jones stood up: "Hey, I'll go to the bathroom to wash, you guys eat."

After the people left, Victor Miller stood up soon.

When she arrived at the cashier of this restaurant, she saw a familiar slender figure standing there.

The cashier in front said something to her, and she took out her wallet to pay.

But her wallet was taken away halfway.

Alice Jones looked sideways, and after making eye contact with the visitor, she raised her eyebrows: "What?"

Victor Miller opened his wallet, "I'll do it."

"Huh? I told you I'll treat you." She smiled calmly and took the wallet from his hand while speaking.

Victor Miller avoided it and still said, "I'll do it."

"???" Alice Jones stared at him leisurely, "What are you doing? I'm treating you to a meal to thank you for helping me move to the dormitory, why are you paying?"

"No, it's just a small thing." He glanced at her casually without paying much attention, and then handed over a card.

Alice Jones: "It's a small thing, but there's no reason for you to pay? It's reasonable to treat Mike, but it's not necessary to treat my roommate, right? I'll really do it."

Victor Miller said, "It's just a meal, I can't afford it?"

Alice Jones paused, and then she was too lazy to argue with him.

She leaned on the cashier with her hands on her shoulders, looking at him leisurely: "Victor Miller, you are rich now, and you have a house in Taipei City. You are no longer the poor college student who has no place to live."

After paying the bill, the man glanced at her.

Alice Jones thought he would be a little unhappy when hearing this, but after looking at her for a few times, Brother Ye suddenly smiled and nodded: "No, I'm not poor now, I'm very rich."

"..."

Alice Jones's lips twitched deeply.

After coming back to her senses, she said: "Congratulations, although we are not getting married, it's good to have money."

"Yeah." He nodded in agreement.

Alice Jones didn't continue talking, after all, this topic involved the fundamental reason why the two broke up that year.

If Victor Miller's family hadn't been so poor, he didn't need to work so hard, then he... maybe, maybe, wouldn't go abroad.

Then maybe, maybe, they are still together now.

Victor Miller was also thinking about the breakup, but when he raised his eyes and wanted to continue talking, Alice Jones took the phone from his hand in time and said: "Eat, I'm not full yet."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Victor Miller stopped talking in his throat, and walked back together as if nothing happened.

The meal was almost over, and Anna was already chatting with Mike about some academic issues.

Alice Jones sat down and took a few more symbolic bites, then put down her chopsticks.

After a while, several people left the table.

Anna walked to the cashier and said she wanted to pay.

The clerk said, "Ah," her eyes fell on Alice Jones and Victor Miller not far away, and said, "Your two friends have already paid together."

Anna:? ?

Mike:? Together? Pay together? The key is how to pay together? Half for each?

After he went out, he calmly asked Victor Miller: "Are you taking Alice Jones' car?"

Victor Miller was calmer than him and said, "Are you okay? I'll stay at your house."

Mike laughed and nodded.

After hearing this, Alice Jones casually said to the two of them that she was leaving, and took Anna to the car.

When the car passed by the restaurant door, the two men standing there were talking about something. Victor Miller was laughing and looking at her from a distance of several meters.

Alice Jones felt that Victor Miller was like wine, which looked very clear but was very strong inside. When he laughed in the noisy night, he could make people deeply drunk.

As soon as the car slid into the neon-lit road, Anna in the passenger seat asked Alice Jones: "What's going on? Are you two paying together?"

Alice Jones leisurely hung one hand on the steering wheel and the other hand on the car window, looking forward, and said: "Nothing, Victor Miller felt that a girl shouldn't pay for dinner, so he rushed to pay the bill."

"Isn't it for you?"

Alice Jones smiled lightly and said frankly: "I didn't see it. He is never vague about this. He used to come to eat together. Maybe he is used to it, so there is nothing special."

Anna sighed and changed the subject: "Tomorrow is my birthday."

"Want to go out and play?"

"Play, school hasn't started yet but I think I'm bald. I envy you for stopping in time and Victor Miller and others, who have graduated." She rubbed her eyebrows, "I've been busy for the whole holiday. It's rare to have an excuse to play. I must get drunk."

Alice Jones smiled and nodded.

After sending her back to Guangming Community, Alice Jones continued to drive forward, galloping through the night, and drove to her home which was not far away.

After parking the car and going upstairs, a brown-haired Alaskan ran over and wagged its tail wildly.

In the house, her father was playing Lego with a three-year-old child under the French window. The old cadre who retired due to illness was now bathing in the moonlight with her son, and the old and the young were having a lot of fun.

When they heard the sound, both of them looked at her and smiled.

Alice Jones also gave the same smile back, called Dad, then raised her chin to the little guy in black opposite and asked, "Have you finished eating?"

"Yes. Have mom and friends finished eating?"

"Yeah."

She went over to touch his little head, "Let's play."

Alice Jones threw her bag and mobile phone on the sofa, then raised her shirt to cool down, "I'm going to take a shower. I'm going to move to your Aunt Anna's dormitory today. It's too hot."

The little guy turned his head to look at her, took his Alaska who always stuck to his mother, and said intimately, "Then mom, go quickly."

"Okay, bye." Alice Jones waved sweetly and left.

After arriving in the bathroom, she went directly to the shower and turned on the faucet without adjusting the water temperature.

After a day of exposure to the sun, the water was also warmed up by the sun. It was neither cold nor hot at this moment, which was quite comfortable.

…

After taking a shower and washing her hair, it had been almost two hours.

Alice Jones went out and went to the balcony to blow dry her hair.

The wind was strong and cool at night, which made people feel comfortable from body to mind.

However, Alice Jones thought that it might be because of Victor Miller. He graduated and returned to China, and he still had a house in Taipei City. It seemed that he would really stay here in the future, which was not bad.

Just as she finished her thought, there was a slight knock on the door, and a clear and lovely child's voice: "Mom, are you done?"

Alice Jones opened the door and entered the house: "Okay, baby, come in."

The door was opened in the next second, and the child and a dog were standing at the door. When they saw her, they walked in together and came to her side.

Alice Jones leaned over and picked him up, sat down on the bed, and put him on her lap, "Why are you looking for your mother, kid? Do you want to sleep with your mother?"

A gentle look appeared on his little face, and he whispered, "I miss you."

Alice Jones curled her eyes, "Really? I haven't seen you for an afternoon, I miss you."

"Yeah."

This soft response reminded Alice Jones of what she said to Anna in the evening, regretting that she got pregnant because of her impulse...

But at this moment, she didn't feel that way at all. At this moment, she felt that everything was fine, and she was willing to accept this result.

It was a little bit unfree, but there were rewards. He was gentle and handsome, and it made people feel happy just by looking at him. Moreover, the little guy loved her very much.

Alice Jones leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. The little boy smiled undisguisedly in his eyebrows and eyes, and then he kissed her.

Alice Jones smiled, and then her eyes fell on the face whose eyebrows and eyes were 70% like Victor Miller. As she looked at him, she couldn't help but lean in and kiss him again.

He was at a loss: "Mom, what's wrong? You are so gentle today."

She laughed and said leisurely: "It's okay, my son is so handsome, it's a waste not to kiss him."

He was a little embarrassed and turned his head to smile.

Even his personality is a bit like Victor Miller. Although he is cool, he can't resist the enthusiasm of these girls.

But fortunately, she is his mother, and he doesn't dislike her.

The little guy is only three years old, but he is also very sensible. He talked to his mother for a while and asked her to rest early. He must be tired after going out for work today.

Alice Jones agreed, and after a while, the mother and son waved, and he took the dog out.

The little guy went to sleep with his grandfather, who would tell him stories every day.

...

Alice Jones stretched and really wanted to sleep. Maybe she felt sleepy earlier than usual because she had been running outside all afternoon in the hot weather.

She brushed her teeth, came back, put on skin care products and fell asleep. She wanted to check her phone before going to bed, but it seemed that it was not on the bedside table.

It seemed that she had left it on the sofa outside when she came back just now? Alice Jones simply put her hand back into the quilt and stopped looking.

But without a phone, she had no idea of ​​the time, and she didn't know when she woke up the next day.

After a long sleep, Alice Jones turned over in her sleep and vaguely saw a bright yellow light coming in from the bottom of the curtain under her eyelids.

It should be late, and it was a sunny day.

Just at this time, the bedroom door seemed to be opened, and then, a familiar small footsteps came, lower than usual, as if they were afraid that she was not awake and disturbed.

Alice Jones raised her eyes slightly and looked.

Her son walked to the bed with her mobile phone in his hand. Seeing that she was awake, he said very gently: "Good morning, Mom. I thought you were not awake."

Seeing such a beautiful face and such a gentle greeting early in the morning, Alice Jones was very comfortable and did not want to sleep in.

"Good morning, baby." She stretched out an arm and touched his head, "What time is it~"

Her son said: "It's still early, but someone added you as a friend on your phone, Mom, do you want to check?"

Alice Jones raised her eyebrows lazily: "Who is it early in the morning?"

"My daddy."
