Chapter 46 Gorgio Is Getting Jealous Again
He saw a luxurious car parked outside, and a slender and graceful figure got out of the car. The gentleman opened the car door and then the person who got out of the backseat was Anna and Charlie.
They were with Simon?
Charlie saw Giorgio and immediately called out, "Daddy!"
Giorgio lowered his gaze and walked over gracefully, "You're playing this late, aren't you tired?"
"Not tired, Uncle Simon carried me and piggybacked me," Charlie said happily, and you could tell that he liked Simon.
Giorgio felt irritated. It was one thing for this woman to come into contact with Simon, but now she had also brought his son to spend time with him?
Anna felt the coldness in the man's gaze and couldn't understand what she had done to provoke him.
At this moment, Simon, who was standing by the car, spoke gently, "Anna, "Do you want to go back to the apartment?"
Anna?
In just one day, they have become so close that they refer to each other as 'Anna' and ‘Simon’?
Giorgio couldn't suppress the sinking feeling in his gaze.
Anna didn't notice and smiled, nodding at Simon, "Hmm, yes." Since Giorgio mentioned it last time at the hospital, she has been going home every night.
Simon said, "Then I'll drive you home, it's on my way."
Drive her home? Alone at night, a man and a woman?
Without waiting for Anna's agreement, Giorgio spoke up, lifting his lips, "She needs to take care of Charlie, bathe him and put him to sleep. It will take a while."
Anna knitted her eyebrows. Wasn't he the one who usually puts him to sleep? How did it end up being her responsibility?
Simon, on the other hand, was not in a hurry, "It's alright, I can wait."
His gentlemanly demeanor seemed to suggest that he didn't mind waiting as long as necessary.
Seeing how nice he was to Anna, Giorgio felt irritated and threw out three curt words, "As you wish."
Then, he turned around and led Charlie upstairs.
Anna had gotten used to Giorgio's cold attitude and didn't think much of it. She kindly suggested to Simon, "You can take a stroll in the garden or sit in the living room, I'll be ready soon."
"Alright."
Anna quickly went upstairs.
Inside the room, Giorgio's mind involuntarily associated the scenario of Giorgio driving Anna home, Anna inviting him inside, and the inevitable situation of a man and a woman being alone together. He couldn't help feeling extremely annoyed.
Damn woman, so casually agreeing to sit in a man's car late at night?
Charlie noticed Giorgio's dissatisfaction and took his hand, asking, "Daddy, are you unhappy?"
Giorgio collected his thoughts and looked down at him, saying, "No."
Thinking of something, he deliberately emphasized his tone and hinted, "Mr. Dalio just said he'll take Anna home and is still waiting downstairs. You should understand what that means, right? Do you know what to do?"
Charlie's dark eyes turned, and suddenly he understood. He crisply said, "I understand. Daddy means for me to help!"
Finally, this kid truly felt like his own.
Giorgio touched Charlie's head and nodded gently, "Smart boy, behave well."
"Yes, yes!" Charlie nodded earnestly.
Click clack, the hurried footsteps of Anna sounded.
Giorgio stood up, as if nothing had happened, and calmly sat at the desk, organizing Charlie's books.
That dignified posture was like that of an immortal, untouched by worldly affairs.
Upon seeing him like that, Anna couldn't help but comment. It's late at night, it should be the time for him to spend alone with their son, so why call her?
Fine, she took his black card, he was the financial provider, so she would comply with his wishes.
"Charlie, go to the bathroom first and wait for Auntie to bring you your pajamas."
Charlie turned to look at Giorgio, made an okay gesture, patted his chest, and then obediently looked at Anna, saying,
"Auntie, I've grown up, and I'm a boy. Boys and girls shouldn't be so close, so you don't need to bathe me. You and Mr. Dalio can go back!"
In an instant, Giorgio, who had been expecting his son to behave well, was surprised with this sentence.
Was this what he meant to convey?
This little brat, what did he understand it as?
Anna was quite surprised and bent down to look at Charlie. She gently asked, "Can you really wash yourself? Can you handle it?"
Charlie glanced at his daddy. Strange, why is his daddy's face so dark? It must be because he didn't perform well enough!
He continued to exert himself, "Yes, Auntie, I really can. It's not good for Uncle Simon to wait downstairs. Please go quickly, see you tomorrow."
After speaking, he pushed Anna out of the room and closed the door.
With a bang, everything was shut out.
Anna looked bewildered. Why was Charlie so obedient and independent tonight? Regardless, it was good behavior.
She said through the door, "Take your time, if you need anything, call your daddy. Goodnight. See you tomorrow."
"Yes, goodnight." Charlie obediently replied. After the sound of footsteps completely disappeared, he turned around and wanted to receive his dad's praise, only to find that his dad's face had turned even blacker!
With a puzzled frown, he asked, "Daddy? What's wrong? Did I do something bad?"
Giorgio looked at his own son's innocent and silly expression, and his temper flared up: "No, you did great."
Leaving the child words behind, he went to the bathroom.
Once again, he doubted whether this child of his was actually adopted!
Charlie pouted. If he did well, why does his dad still have the expression of wanting to scold him?
Father's world, I really don't understand...
Anna returned home and noticed that Penny was in a bad mood, so she curiously asked, "Sweet and charming little princess, what's wrong?"
Penny shook her head and said, "Nothing, I just want mommy to hold me and sleep with mommy."
Her soft voice could melt anyone's heart.
Anna picked her up, kissed her little cheek, and said, "What's the problem with that? Mommy also wants to hold our little princess. From now on, we'll hold you every night."
"Mhmm. Mommy, I love you, muah!" Penny obediently said and leaned against Anna's shoulder, soon falling asleep.
She truly was an adorable little girl.
Anna carefully got into bed, holding her daughter and covering them with a blanket.
After playing all day, she quickly fell asleep. As for taking a bath, she could do it tomorrow morning.
