Chapter 286 Pretty Lady

Harry angrily put the gift on the table and was about to leave the house with Nicole.

Rose stood up immediately and blocked her son's way. She won't let Harry ruin her plans tonight.

"Harry, today is my birthday. Are you going to just leave like this?" Rose was already heated up.

Harry coldly glanced at her. "Mrs. Si, you just let me down again."

At that very moment, the woman who had been hushed in silence, stood up and said in a soft voice,
"Mr. Si, please calm down. I was actually the one who took the initiative to celebrate here tonight. If you
are annoyed with my presence, I will leave now. I don't want to be the one who will be the cause of
your arguments."

Rose looked at Cherry with admiration. What a nice woman she was!

Even so, Harry didn't look back at her at all. He just said faintly, "Miss Jiao, since you know that I am
annoyed, please get out of here. Or my fiancee will get angry if she knew about this."

Cherry felt so embarrassed and bit her lower lip as she quickly walked away with her handbag.

"Mrs. Si, I'm sorry. I must go now."

But Rose stood her ground and stopped Cherry from leaving. Then she snapped at her son, "It is just a
birthday. Why should you screw this up just because of that woman?"

"You brought this upon yourself. Not me." Harry retorted without any disregard to her mother's feelings.

Rose was out of breath in anger. Suddenly, she got an idea. She held her head as if she was dizzy and
then fell to the ground.

"Mother!" Harry quickly caught his mother in his arms.



"Mrs. Si! Are you okay?" Cherry asked in an obvious worried tone.

Harry's grandfather and Kevin also rushed over in an instant.

"Rose! What's the matter with you?" Kevin became so scared when saw her wife collapse. She had
never lost consciousness like this before.

Rose pretended to be very weak. This was all part of her scheme. "Oh, it's nothing. I just feel a little
dizzy."

Harry lifted his mother and asked, "Didn't you have your regular check-up this month?" They had a
private doctor in their house for her regular check-ups. It was done once a month.

"I did. Nothing was wrong in my body except my high blood pressure." The doctor actually said was
that there were signs of high blood pressure and she should control her temper.

But she did not take serious considerations to it at all. Looking at his mother with sympathy, Harry felt
that he must ask Dr. Fei some other day. He didn't want this to happen to his mother again.

Harry finally decided to stay for dinner. Rose's cruel scheme actually worked. All night long, Cherry was
intently staring at him. Harry was taking care of Nicole, and she admired him for this.

There were rumors that he had a daughter and she was the apple of his eye. It was true.

She realized that if she wanted to win Harry's heart, she should also treat the girl as if she was her
daughter.

When she finished eating her dinner, Cherry gently wiped her mouth and smiled at Nicole, "Nicole, it's
the first time we met today. Do you want a gift after dinner?"



Oh! A gift? Nicole's eyes widened in excitement. She loved gifts! No matter if it was expensive or not.
What mattered was that she would get a gift. Surprises were always her favorite!

Nicole nodded in excitement and said happily, "Thank you, pretty lady. You're so nice."

A sweet child was always a cause for happiness in a family. Cherry sincerely smiled at Nicole again.

Rose felt very happy to see this. She realized something.

If Cherry won Nicole's heart, she could get even closer to Harry.

Harry's grandfather just concentrated on his dinner, and turned a blind eye to all of these. This was
getting very tiring for him.

Kevin frowned a little. He certainly knew what Rose was thinking. He thought that he needed to
seriously talk to his wife.

Harry got a spoonful of jellybeans and put it into Nicole's bowl. He was acting like he didn't care.

Right after dinner, Cherry got out a tote bag and lovingly handed it to Nicole. "Nicole, this is the
Thomas train toy that my friend brought back from abroad. Do you like it?"

Nicole quickly took the present and thanked the pretty lady again. Cherry happily helped Nicole open
the toy.

She also stayed with Nicole so they can play with the toys for a while. But when she took notice of the
time, she said to Rose, "Mrs. Si, I'm going home. It's getting a bit late already." Her parents were very
strict with her. She was a daughter of a very important person so safety was a main concern. She must
be home by ten.



Rose took a look at his son who was busy talking on the phone and then winked at Cherry. The wink
indicated that she should wait for Harry to finish his conversation on the phone.

When he was finished answering the phone call, Harry already thought of leaving with Nicole.

Rose said to her son, "Cherry came here by taxi. It's getting late and it could not be safe outside. Could
you please take her to her home?"

On hearing his mother's words, Harry stared at her with frowned brows. He knew what she was
thinking.

He walked straight out of the room without answering his mother. He was becoming so infuriated.

Nicole put down the little train toy when she saw her father walking out, "Daddy, I want to play the
game on your phone. Please?"

Harry turned back and handed the phone to his daughter. "Nicole, wait for me for a minute. I will come
back soon and take you to your mother."

The little girl took the phone and nodded. She just felt so happy to see her mother.

Harry stood up and made his way to the door. Rose tipped Cherry a wink and she immediately followed
him.

Inside the mansion.

Lola was having her dinner alone, but she was a bit sad as she had not seen Harry and Nicole for
hours now. So she went upstairs and tried to call Harry. She wished he could come back soon.

She walked to the balcony in an obviously melancholic manner. Looking towards the vast sea, she
dialed the private number of Harry.



"Mommy!" The tender and lovely voice of her daughter revived Lola's happy spirits instantly.

"Sweetheart, what are you doing?" She was a bit confused. Why was Nicole holding his phone? He
only left his phone to her whenever he was away. Where was him?

"Mommy, I'm playing games on daddy's phone."

Oh, that was the case. Well, then. This little cute girl could answer a phone now. That was how
advanced she was. "Honey, could you please hand the phone to daddy?" She was becoming so bored
without the two of them.

"Mommy, daddy is not with me. He went to send a beautiful lady home!" Kevin wanted to stop Nicole,
but Nicole had finished her words when he stepped in front of her. It was too late.

That was too bad!

"A beautiful lady? What do you mean?" Lola frowned and thought to herself, "Didn't they go to the old
mansion for dinner?"

"Yes. Just the one we met at the mall that night. She even gave me a toy! She's so nice." Nicole
answered her honestly.

The woman at the mall? That was the daughter of the mayor who was with Rose, right? "Well, I see.
Where are you now?"

Repressing the anger and the sourness in her heart, she asked her daughter calmly.

But it was not easy for her to stay calm as she couldn't stop thinking that a woman was with Harry right
now. And they were alone, too...



"Today is Grandma's birthday, I'm with my grandparents now. Are you coming over, mommy? I wish
you would."

When he heard that Nicole had explained everything to Lola, Kevin was anxious that he wanted to take
the phone away from his granddaughter's hands.

Rose was wondering how to let Lola know that Harry was sending Cherry home. She wanted Harry and
Lola to break up again. Well, this was perfect! Nicole did well!

Today is Rose's birthday? Lola stood in a trance. Why did nobody tell her?
