Chapter 74
"Why did he say that?"
Frightened, Trixie was full of curiosity. She also wanted to know why a child said such things for no reason.
"He didn't say it, but I just clearly saw that he had a mother. He must be a lying bad boy!"
The child's heart is simple. Kinsley pursed her mouth and always felt that Aiden was lying.
However, Trixie felt that it was not Aiden who lied, but Hailey. Even Daryl and Nathalie may be involved. At the thought of this, the confusion in her mind was about to blow up.
In just a few days, she really didn't know what to do except for so many things for no reason.
Paternity test, Nathalie's eyes, and this woman named Hailey smith and her son...
Trixie felt like a puppet led by the Master. She could only be full of doubts about these things and could not take any substantive measures. She can't even find a complete chain of evidence.
They arrived already but she was still in daze about all of the things that had been going through her mind.
Trixie took Kinsley upstairs, opened the door and saw Daryl sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV. She paused.
"Why did you come back so early?"
Daryl turned off the TV and stood up. He went to Trixie and reached out to pick up Kinsley. "The company is busy but I got lazy today so, I got off work early."
Looking at Daryl holding Kinsley and walking to the sofa, her eyes remained on Daryl's clothes.
She remembered... Daryl was not wearing these clothes when he left today. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Is there any spare clothes in the company?
Daryl sat on the sofa and seemed to notice that Trixie's eyes were always on his clothes.
Don't knowing whether guilty or unintentional, Daryl stretched out his hand and pulled the neckline of his shirt, dodging her eyes.
"How did you change your clothes?"
"I accidentally spilled my coffee in the office today. I don’t have spare clothes with me so I instructed Erin to buy me a new one." As he said this, he "tut" with a slight dislike. "The clothes the little girl picked were not my taste but it does not matter."
Trixie smiled and pretended not to care. "It looks OK, and Erin has a good eye."
Daryl's smile stiffened and he got up quickly. "Kinsley said she wanted to eat hot pot. I'd better change. It doesn't look like it when I go out."
He hurried to the bedroom, like escaping.
Trixie looked at his back, the expression in his eyes was complicated and unpredictable.
Daryl changed his clothes and the family of three drove out.
When they arrived at a famous hotpot restaurant, Daryl asked for a private room because he felt it was too noisy outside.
The husband and wife sat face to face and were relatively silent after ordering.
After a while, Trixie opened her mouth to say. "We met Hailey Smith today, and she promised not to trouble Nathalie any more. However, she has conditions."
"What conditions?"
Daryl's reaction was a bit extreme. It seemed that he was very happy to deal with her and stop pestering Nathalie.
But when he realized that Trixie was still there, he smiled awkwardly and explained. "Nathalie is a house girl, and her eyes are still blind. It was troublesome for this woman to find her all the time. If you solve it early, you will save a lot of trouble."
Trixie didn't feel anything about Daryl's explanation, and even felt that he was redundant.
Originally, she didn't think too much, but Daryl's explanation made her think too much.
"I remember the last time you sent me a form, the signature on the document was named after her?"
Trixie pretended to ask casually, staring straight at Daryl's face.
Daryl frowned and sighed helplessly. "In fact, Hailey found Nathalie a long time ago. At that time, she always asked for money. I really gave her some without hesitation. As a result, she got worse and asked for a car and a room."
Seeing Trixie's face changed instantly, Daryl hurriedly continued, "Of course I can't give it to her! But in the end, I paid her for a watch."
Knowing that he was wrong, Daryl did not dare to look Trixie in the eye, but could only hear Trixie's calm voice.
"Is that why Hailey’s name is written on the invoice?"
"Yes."
"Then why did you get your watch back again? And told me it was a gift for me?"
Thinking that Daryl gave the watch to the woman, Trixie couldn't wait to go home now and smash the watch.
Although it is extremely expensive, she can't stand her husband giving it to other women, which makes Trixie feel sick.
"After two days, she told me that she didn't want the watch, so she let me exchange it for cash at the original price. I thought that the watch and mine could be a couple watches, and it was a pity to throw it away, so I went to the counter to trade it in. Wife, you can rest assured that your watch is a new one, not hers."
After so many years of marriage, Daryl certainly knows the reason why Trixie looks bad, just because the watch was worn.
So he had the foresight to change one, in order to prevent Trixie from being short of breath when she learns the truth.
After he explained, the look on Trixie's face was really relieved, and there was no obvious anger in her eyes at first.
Just then, the bottom of the hot pot and the ordered dishes were served.
Trixie picked up the plate and said as she served, "Hailey said she wanted one million Yuan and wanted to work as a management officer in the New York branch. If you promise her, she won't find any more trouble."
"What do you think of that wife?"
Daryl asked for her opinion.
"If you think she is competent, I have no problem. I just want to know about it quickly now, and then rent a house for Nathalie to find a job for her to move away."
Daryl's action of picking vegetables stopped. He looked at Trixie while creasing his brows. "Wife, do you want to drive Nathalie away?"
"Hmm."
"Why?"
"No reason."
Trixie was somewhat unhappy when he heard Daryl ask why.
His tone doesn’t want Nathalie to leave.
"She is Nathan's sister, and her eyes can't see anything. If you drive her away, what will you do if you let her go?"
Trixie instantly became angry and threw chopsticks directly on the table. "She can do whatever she likes! To put it bluntly, Nathan is an old employee of your company in the past, not your brother. Have you considered my feelings for her sister?!"
Daryl froze.
He has hardly seen Trixie so angry.
In his memory, Trixie has always been gentle and generous and has never been angry.
But this time, she is really angry.
"No wife, listen to me..."
He tried to explain, but Trixie wouldn't listen.
"I don't care how much money you spent on her before I knew this, but after the one million payment was turned over, the matter was over.. After that, no matter what happened to her, even if she died, it had nothing to do with us."
