Before Blanc had the chance to say anything, Dudley asked jokingly, “Blanc, isn’t it too late for that?”
“If it isn’t because Mr. Stone has such a grown daughter now, I would ask my Judy to pursue him
aggressively. When is your turn for that?”
Blanc nodded in agreement and said, “True, Mr. Stone is charming and gifted. I believe many ladies out
there would want to marry him, our granddaughters have a lot of competition!”
The two old men were very indulged in the conversation and Skylar could only laugh awkwardly in
response.
At that time, he felt something creeping up against his waist and he felt a sense of pain.
It was his wife, Yulia. She ground her teeth and said angrily, “Well, it seems like you’re very pleased
that both Mr. Shepherd and Mr. Whitlock want you to be their grandson-in-law.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSkylar knew he was in trouble and explained quickly in a serious manner, “Yulia, I swear, I will only love
you this life, and I’m not interested in other women.”
Skylar’s reassurance was as sweet as honey.
Skylar then made a pitiful expression and begged, “Dear, it’s painful…gentle, please?”
The guests who were seated at the same table looked at them curiously. They let out an affiliative smile
when they saw that Yulia’s hand was placed on Skylar’s waist.
Yulia’s face turned red as she felt extremely awkward. She pretended to be busy by embracing Lola to
mask her awkwardness.
This idiot… Why was he being so loud?!
He raised people’s attention on purpose… so impropriate!
At that time, Lola, who was still devouring her food, put her spoon down. She said pitifully as tears
rolled in her eyes, ” If daddy doesn’t love me anymore, then Lola doesn’t love daddy anymore too!”
“Sweetheart, why so?”
Skylar was dumbfounded but seeing his daughter being unhappy made him heartbroken as well.
Lola pouted, “You said you would only love mommy, so you don’t love me anymore!”
Lola’s words left Skylar speechless.
Well, it seems like I have to constantly remind myself to not leave out any one of them.
“Sweetheart, of course, I love you. I was not being considerate just now. I will take back my words.
Daddy will only love you and mommy in this lifetime, okay?”
“Really?” Lola asked innocently.
“Of course. When did daddy ever lie to you?” Skylar reassured Lola.
Lola pondered for a while and nodded, “Okay, daddy will only love mommy and me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSkylar’s heart melted when seeing Lola’s bright smile.
The other guests were very envious of their relationship, how they wished that they had a daughter or
granddaughter that was loving and affectionate as well.
Soon, the meal ended in smiles and laughter.
The Shepherd family organized some events after the meal. However, the Stone family left in advance
to prevent some irrelevant people from reaching out to Skylar.
As they were leaving, Yulia asked, “The things you said at the table just now…you’re not lying to me,
right?”
Skylar was stunned by her question.
What Yulia meant were promises like “I will only love you in this life.”
However, he acted like he forgot what he had said on purpose, “Huh, what?”
“You…fine!” Yulia was annoyed.
Skylar smirked as he quickly held her hand, “My dear wife, what I said to you was true.”
“Skylar Stone, promise me, don’t ever lie to me in this lifetime, okay?” Yulia gazed at him.
