Chapter 241 Father and Mother Are Relatives and Lovers

Hearing what Doris said, Lina, standing next to Doris, was so embarrassed that she couldn't keep the
smile on her face.

Lina and Bright were both sensitive, and they could sense Doris's hostility toward Lina.

Bright squatted down and took Doris's hand. "Daddy grew up with Auntie Lina. She's like my own
sister, so it is fine to call her aunt."

"Dad, since you grew up with her, I think it is fine to call her sister." Doris deliberately treated Lina as
her generation, so that she would separate Lina and her dad, "Dad, look how young sister Lina is. It
sounds too old to call her aunt."

Bright felt helpless about Doris, and said, "You are..."

Doris was just a child, and it wasn't surprised that she cared about much.

Doris didn't care about what her dad said, "What's wrong with me?"

Her innocent eyes rolled, as if to say, "Did I interrupt you two?"

Bright pinched her tiny nose and said softly, "Go over the couch and read."

Doris, of course, was unwilling to do so, "Daddy, does mom know sister Lina?"

Lina answered, "I just came back from abroad and missed your father so much, so I came from City J
to City H to see your father. Your father and I have known each other since we were kids, and we had
been close. We are like family, so you and I are family."

"You and I are unrelated by blood; how can you be my family?" Doris did not want to be in the family
with Lina. Any woman who wanted to be with her father was her mother's rival in love and her enemy.



Doris answered back, "Family should have blood relations, shouldn't it?"

"Doris, your father and mother don't have blood relations, are they family?" Lina was displeased by the
little girl who went against her, so she said it on purpose.

Lina thought this would leave Doris speechless, but Doris disappointed her. The little retorted, "They're
not related by blood, but they're legally related, and they're lovers. And what about you? You are
related by law or by blood?"

Doris's big black and white eyes lit up with a sweet smile.

Who could have thought that this five-year-old girl would be so articulate as to answer Lina back, and
left her embarrassed?

Lina was speechless for a moment. She gritted her teeth, and couldn't imagine how she was
embarrassed by a five-year-old girl.

She took deep breaths to calm herself down, "I'm not related to your father by law or by blood, but I am
family in his heart, and that's enough."

The people in heart were the most important. Lina got a nice shot.

"My father's heart is full of my mother and me, and there is no room for you, sister, so don't cry." Doris
stretched out her hand and asked, "Dad, you love me and mom most, don't you?"

"Yes, I love you and your mother most." Bright answered Doris's question, implied to tell Lina that they
were not kids anymore.

Lina knew what Bright meant, and she was very sad about his directness.



But she didn't want to let it go. They'd grown together, and she did not believe that Bright would be so
ruthless to her.

As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would not give up, even if she had to wait forever.

"Mom and I love Dad the most, too." Doris answered Bright.

Bright smiled. He thought the baby was really cute.

Doris did not care about Lina, and obediently sat down on the sofa to read.

"Doris is just a kid," Bright told Lina, "what she said was unintentional, so don't take it to your heart. But
what I'm trying to say is that what she has said is true. There are only Doris and Rose in my heart, and
our long-term relationship is based on being brother and sister. Lina, you have to understand that I'm
married, and have a wife and a daughter."

Lina did know Bright was married, but she couldn't get over it.

"Brother Bright, I got it." Lina could only put the things off, and pretended to be sensible so that Bright
wouldn't find her annoyed.

Only by maintaining this good relationship could she get close to him, or she would never see him
again.

Bright was pleased, "It's great."

"You promised to invite me to dinner. Don't go back on it." Lina reminded him, "I came to City H to see
you, and you can't leave me alone."

"Yes." When Bright saw that she gave in, he couldn't refuse her request.



"Well, just go to work. I won't bother you. I've asked Zoe out. She's waiting for me in the cafe
downstairs." Lina didn't want to be with Doris, but if Bright was the only one in the office, she would be
happy to stay there.

"Go ahead. Be careful." Bright said.

After all, they were women. Now that they were here, and he was the only person they knew. As their
brother, it was natural that he should take more care of them.

If there was anything wrong with them, he didn't know how to explain to his father or Lina's father.

"Zoe and I are not kids anymore. You don't need to worry about it. Just get back to work. Zoe and I will
be back before you leave work." Lina waved to Bright and left.

Bright saw that the office door was closed and then he glanced at Doris, who was reading quietly on
the sofa.

He walked over and sat down next to Doris. While he was trying to figure out what to say, Doris put
down her book and said to Bright, "Daddy, I don't like that sister."

"Dad can't stop you like or dislike a person, but we should behave ourselves. That aunt is the father's
sister, and you are the junior, so you should respect her. This is the most basic quality of children."
Bright was a little more serious now, hoping that Doris could understand he was speaking for her good.

As his daughter, Doris naturally was very noble and should be pampered and brought up like a little
princess. However, it did not mean that she could be willful and arrogant. She should act like a child
when she was a child.

He would not object to her unless she was old enough to stand up to everyone in her own right, but
now she should behave herself when she was a kid.



He would never let anyone bully his daughter, of course. Otherwise, he would never be merciful.
