Lucy changed her clothes and went downstairs.
Phoebe's eyes flashed with surprise: "Sister..."
Leo was sitting on the sofa reading the latest political newspaper. When he heard Phoebe's call, the corners of his mouth raised.
Patricia brought a cup of tea and put it on the table.
She looked at Phoebe knowingly, and then saw Leo's satisfied look, and said while the iron was hot: "Phoebe, come and tell Dad what place you ranked in this midterm exam?"
Phoebe sat on the sofa timidly and said: "Fifth in the grade." "Leo, Lucy got a reward for getting 100 in the grade.
Shouldn't our Phoebe get some reward too?" Leo adjusted his glasses and his face darkened.
He really didn't like his wife to bring emotions to the children. He glanced at Lucy.
The white dress was plain and elegant, just like the way he saw her mother that year.
He perfunctorily said: "Whatever Phoebe wants, just buy it." Patricia's eyebrows were obviously wrinkled.
She glanced at Lucy coming down the stairs with a gloomy look.
Leo spent a week carefully selecting Lucy's gift, a top-quality custom-made violin.
He even planned to convert the room on the third floor that Leo used for leisure into a violin room.
Thinking of this, Patricia's displeasure became even more intense.
The girl in the white dress was simple and elegant, even better than her mother was in her youth.
Her mother took the initiative and snatched Leo away.
Now that she had just arrived at this family, even her son, who had never been interested in love affairs, took the girl on his motorcycle.
It was difficult for Patricia not to think about things in a bad direction and prepare in advance in case the situation became hopeless.
She climbed up to the director of the Women's Federation and had seen too many cases of all kinds.
We must take precautions. Lucy thought of Isaac's words, walked up to Leo and said, "Dad." Leo's face was touched.
He had waited for this father for too long.
He was a little at a loss, choking up: "Well, I went to the mall and wanted to buy something, so I asked your brother to pay." Isaac changed into casual clothes and went downstairs and asked Lucy: "My mobile phone, did you take it?"
Lucy looked at Patricia, who stood up and took the mobile phone from the kitchen counter and handed it to Isaac, saying meaningfully: "Isaac, you are an adult, you should be sensible when doing things, okay?"
Isaac raised his eyes and glanced at Patricia: "I went to Lucy's room because I wanted to use her computer, and I was updating my computer."
Isaac was a little unprepared for Isaac's straightforward explanation.
His son was a thoughtful person, so how could he not understand her repeated hints.
She glanced at Lucy, thinking that she must be too sensitive.
She was more worried about arousing Shen Li's suspicion.
She was just guessing and had no evidence. Moreover, as long as Lucy was involved, she and Leo would quarrel.
She couldn't just give up the husband she had cultivated with great difficulty after maintaining the relationship for so many years.
She smiled awkwardly: "Mom doesn't mean anything else. Let's not talk about these things for now.
Aren't you going to the mall?
The car is waiting outside." Lucy bit her lip and stood there, thinking about his indifferent tone.
The enthusiasm when kissing was like a dream.
In front of outsiders, he was a cold young master, so arrogant that they seemed to be of different kinds.
It is estimated that no one would associate her with him.
Patricia probably won't doubt it now.
How could her son like a girl from the countryside?
Lucy was thinking that when no one was around, Isaac oppressed her nerves and her spirit as much as possible.
She couldn't guess what a young man like him was thinking and what he wanted to do.
Patricia arranged Lucy in the front passenger seat, and Isaac sat calmly in the back seat.
Phoebe clearly sensed the abnormal atmosphere between the two. "Sister, did you quarrel with my brother?" Phoebe asked.
Lucy moved her lips and uttered in her dry throat: "No."
Isaac closed his eyes and took out his cell phone. Not long after, Lucy's cell phone dinged, and she clicked it to see that it was a message from Isaac.
"Unhappy?"
Lucy blushed and opened the window to get some fresh air.
The driver asked with concern: "Miss, are you carsick?"
She shook her head: "No, I'm a little hot."
"Hot? I'm freezing to death in the back."
Phoebe complained that the air conditioner was too loud, and her shorts were freezing.
Lucy looked at Isaac carefully through the rearview mirror, and he looked back at her eyes deeply.
At that moment, she seemed to have crashed into an endless abyss.
