While the two brothers were tangling, Kathy's message came again.
"Why don't you unlock the computer for me?" Do you think I don't have enough money? I can give you another two million, and you will immediately unlock my computer, I am in a hurry!"
Looking at the message she sent, Lexy frowned and called Maria.
"Mommy, are you off work? Well, it's time to get off work."
Sitting in the back seat of the car, Maria looked at the Flair family mansion outside the car window and sighed a long time.
"But Mommy has something to do with Daddy today, and it may be very late to go back. If you're hungry, let the servant make you something to eat. Be obedient at home."
The woman's voice was extremely gentle.
In the past, listening to Maria's concerned tone, Lexy would feel warm, but today, listening to her words, he was a little distressed.
Mommy's own child is gone.
What kind of mood does she have to transfer her feelings for her children to them and be good to them wholeheartedly?
"Mommy."
Lexy took a deep breath and whispered to her.
"What's wrong?"
Maria was full of boredom about to return to the Flair family, and did not notice the low drop in the voice of Lexy.
"It's all right."
Lexy frowned and glanced up at Liam. It just so happened that Liam was also watching him. The two brothers glanced at each other.
Finally, Lexy squeezed a bitter smile from his lips.
"Mommy, thank you for your willingness to be with my brother and I. In the future, no matter what kind of wind and rain there is, my brother and I will accompany you to spend it together. Even if..."
He bit his lip, still trying to say the words from the bottom of his heart.
"Even if Daddy has an opinion on you in the future and it is not good for you, my brother and I will always be by your side. We brought you to Daddy's side, and we will be responsible for you to the end."
After saying that, the little guy hung up the phone.
Maria was speechless and confused.
Why did Liam suddenly say this?
She looked up blankly at Xavier.
Xavier, who was also looking at her, furrowed his brows faintly.
"What did that little one say again?"
Maria pursed her lips and repeated Lexy's words.
"Whimsical."
Xavier raised his hand and wrapped Maria in his arms.
"Why did he suddenly tell you this?"
"It's because..."
His bottomless eyes stared into her face.
"Is it because you are worried that I will dislike you and won't want you again?"
Maria blushed and shook her head hurriedly.
"I didn't!"
How could she think about such a thing?
"Lie."
He decided that Lexy said those words because she was worried that he didn't want her. So he lightly tickled his lips, holding her whole body in his arms.
"Put your heart at rest baby. There won't be a day like that."
The unique fragrance on the man's body made Maria have palpitations for a moment. Her breathing stopped slightly for a moment, then she obediently rested her head in his arms.
Although she wasn't worried that he didn't want her, at this moment, her heart was full of the boredom of seeing Flair's family, and she really needed his hug.
Feeling the temperature on the man's body, Maria pursed her lips, and her voice was muffled.
"Do you mean what you just said?"
Xavier's voice with a little laughter came from the top of her head.
"I won't do such a meaningless thing as lying."
The corners of her lips hooked slightly, and she reached out and wrapped her arms around his lean waist.
......
In the McCarthy family villa.
At the moment when Lexy hung up the phone with Maria, Liam had already unlocked Kathy's computer.
The two brothers sat tacitly in front of the computer, looking at Maria's pregnant photos one by one.
"If only Mommy had the two of us in her belly at the time."
Lexy hugged the pillow and sighed with some pity.
Liam changed into a comfortable position and leaned back on the small chair.
"There are not so many ifs in the world."
Their mother is dead.
Their father had told them that, he had watched his mother's body burned into black charcoal in the fire and transported out.
Every year on the day of their mother's death, they will also go to her grave and speak to her.
After Maria was married in, it was also Liam who suggested to Lexy that they should call her Mommy in the stead of their gone mother.
"I'm just going to talk about it..."
Lexy skimmed his lips, and of course he knew it was impossible. After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Liam's face seriously.
"Brother, you said that Daddy wouldn't really dislike Mommy, right?"
Liam frowned.
"I don't know."
But what he knew was that instead of waiting for Daddy to really fall in love with Mommy and let him know, it was better to let him know now.
This kind of thing should be done sooner rather than later. If you don't love enough, you probably won't care so much.
"I don't think Daddy would mind."
Lexy picked up the yogurt on the side, and while drinking it, he comforted himself.
"Daddy, he also has us, why would he hate Mommy for having a baby!"
"The adult world is complex."
Liam's calm voice came.
"But you're right, if Daddy dares to dislike Mommy, we'll use this as a reason to deal with him!"
...... ......
The Flair family Villa.
The black Maserati stopped at the door.
"President McCarthy!"
Jacob Flair came out of the villa with a smile to greet him.
Although he was already mentally prepared, when Xavier got out of the car, Jacob's whole person still stopped sluggishly.
The man in front of him was tall, his facial features were exquisite, full of nobility and arrogance, and the rumored old, bald and disfigured president Xavier McCarthy was completely judged by the two!
If he had known that president Xavier McCarthy's true appearance was like this, he would not have let Maria marry him instead of Kathy.
This is simply because Maria is that cheap slut!
Thinking of this, he smiled sarcastically.
"You must be president Xavier McCarthy."
Xavier nodded faintly.
"Hmm."
"It turns out that president McCarthy is so young and promising...."
Jacob sighed.
"I really regret it."
Xavier raised an eyebrow, leaned his tall body against the car door, and deliberately blocked Maria, who was preparing to get off the car behind him.
"Regret what? ”
"I regret that I didn't know the truth with my eyes and believed the lies made up by those people on the internet and missed such a good son-in-law of the McCarthy family......"
"Mr. Flair's words are not right."
The man tickled his lips faintly, and his voice was low and cold.
"I am now your half son-in-law, aren't I?"
"When you told my father to let Maria marry me, didn't you swore that although Maria wasn't you own biological child, you were always closer to her than your own daughter."
His words made Jacob's words all choke back.
Indeed, when he first arranged for Maria to marry, he did make a lot of nonsense in front of the McCarthy family.
Wanting to hit here, he coughed softly and didn't look over his face.
"Of course, in my heart, Maria is similar to my own daughter..."
"Really?"
As soon as the man's words were finished, a thin figure came out behind Xavier.
Maria looked at his face coldly.
"Mr. Flair, this is the first time I know, it turns out that in your heart, I am similar to your own daughter."
"Since you regard me as your own daughter, why didn't I pay any attention to me for months after I married. You also invited my husband for dinner and specifically told him not to bring me along?"
