Chapter 590 Red Lips
Isabella's red lips barely grazed the edge of Benjamin's chin. She froze, her face draining of color.Isabella's red lips only barely brushed against the edge of Benjamin's chin.
She froze all over, her face turning pale from red.
Benjamin's face remained calm. A, although his eyes still carried a hint of drunkenness, they were much clearer than before. "There are many bends on this road, hold on tight."
"Oh... okay."
Isabella sat aside, feeling lost, as her confusion lingered in the shadows.
She couldn't understand why Benjamin, her fiancé, was so indifferent to her!
Upon tThinking about Benjamin's different treatment of Sarah, Isabella's fingers tightened, and a sense of resentment slowly surged in her heart.
…
After Sarah returned home and pondered Mr. Thompson's afternoon phone call, she promptly began packing following her shower, preparing for her trip to Pine Mountain the following day.When Sarah returned home and thought about what Mr. Thompson had said on the phone in the afternoon, she started packing after taking a shower and preparing for her trip to Pine Mountain the next day.
Ethan came in from outside. "Mommy, where are you going?"
"I'm going to Pine Mountain for a business trip. I might stay at the hot spring hotel there for a few days. You two behave yourselves at home."
Wasn't that the project Mommy and Daddy were going to work on together?
Ethan's eyes widened, and suddenly, an idea popped into his head.
"Mommy, take your time with the packing! I'll go play with my brother and sister!" hHe said as he dashed off.
Ethan entered the adjoining room where Ryan was assisting Harper with her drawing. They both glanced up as the door opened.Ethan ran into the adjacent room where Ryan was accompanying Harper in the drawing. Both of them looked up when they heard the door open.
"I have a big announcement to make!"
They put down their paintbrushes.
"What is it?"
Ethan sat down on the nearby recliner. "Mommy is going to the Pine Mountain Hot Spring Resort tomorrow, and Daddy will also be there, but it's for work. There will definitely be a lot of other people there, too. What do you think about us going as well, so we can act as matchmakers?"
"Yes!" Harper immediately voiced her support. "I think it's a good idea. We can also soak in the hot springs at the resort, which will give Mommy and Daddy some alone time."
Ryan thought about it seriously and also found it feasible.
"Only you guys can go. Daddy still doesn't know my true identity, so I can't risk being discovered by him for now," he said, looking at his younger siblings with a serious expression. "I'll stay home. If you need anything, contact me immediately.""But only you guys can go. Daddy still doesn't know my true identity, so I can't be discovered by him for now."
He looked at his younger siblings in front of him and said seriously, "I'll stay at home. If you need anything, contact me right away."
Ethan thought this was acceptable. "What do you think, Harper?"
"Can't Ryan go too..." Harper's little face wrinkled up, torn between the fact that Ryan would be very lonely at home alone without Mommy and Daddy.
"Ethan, can you go with Mommy by yourself? I'll stay with Ryan," she suggested.
Ethan hesitated for a moment. "Okay then."
This daunting task would have to fall on his shoulders alone!
In the adjacent room, Sarah had just completed her packing when she turned to find Ethan there again. His restless demeanor clearly suggested he had something on his mind.In the other room, Sarah had just finished packing when she turned around and saw the little guy who had just left return. His fidgety appearance clearly indicated that he had something to say.
She smiled and said, "What's up? What do you want to tell me?"
Ethan smiled eagerly. "Mommy, can I go with you?"
Sarah was surprised. "Mommy is going to work, not play, darling."
"But I really want to go to the hot springs!"
Ethan sadly approached her, pleading, "Mommy, please let me go! I promise I'll be well-behaved and won't disturb you at work."
Sarah, feeling helpless, knew Ethan would behave well, so taking him along wouldn't be out of the question. However, Benjamin would also be there.Sarah, feeling helpless, knew Ethan would be well-behaved, and taking him along wouldn't be out of the question, but Benjamin would also be there.
Would Ethan lose control when he sawees him again?
Thinking back to the last time that man and the children met, Sarah was a bit uncertain.
After all, it took her multiple attempts to maintain composure in front of Benjamin. Ethan was just a child. Could he really do it?
But as she looked into those watery eyes, she couldn't bring herself to refuse.
All right, they could try their best to avoid meeting each other.
"Promise Mommy that you won't cause trouble and, most importantly, you won't mistake that Mr. Harrington from last time as your father again. Can you do that?"
Seeing a glimmer of hope, Ethan vowed, "Okay! I promise!"
"Alright then, keep your word." Sarah agreed and gave a few more reminders, "Let's go pack your things now, and go to bed early tonight."
"I understand, Mommy!"
Ethan nodded in agreement, yet in his heart, he was already formulating tomorrow's plan. He was determined to make strides in improving his parents' relationship.Ethan agreed with his mouth, but in his heart, he was already thinking about the plan to be implemented tomorrow!
He would definitely make progress in Mommy and Daddy's relationship!
