Chapter 293: Bruce Was Provoked by His Son
Halle was carefully thinking about how to tell Horton.
As she spoke, she could not help but look at Horton’s face.
Horton was calm. He wasn’t happy or surprised as she expected. He wasn’t even in the slightest way delighted.
Seeing that Horton’s poker face, Halle froze.
Were her words not clear enough?
"Emily calls you daddy, and you are her father."
Halle pursed her lips and reminded him again. Horton finally raised his head. He seemed to have mixed feelings. Halle could not understand it.
Horton looked at Halle and smiled.
His voice was gentle. He said, "Well, believe me. I will love her as if she was my daughter."
Halle frowned.
She wondered, "Did he really understand what I said? Emily is his daughter."
"Emily calls you daddy. She is your daughter."
Halle could not help but say it again, but it seemed that Horton misunderstood her.
Seeing that Horton was still so indifferent, Halle was a little anxious.
"I said, Emily is your daughter. You are her father."
Although he liked Emily very much, she didn’t want Horton to have any estrangement with Emily in the future.
Even if Horton didn’t know Emily’s real identity, Halle believed that he would always love Emily and wouldn’t wrong her.
But since they had decided to get married, Emily would be Horton’s daughter in any case. Halle felt that there was no need to hide it from him.
But the look on Horton’s face made Halle confused.
She wondered, "why doesn’t he believe in himself?"
Halle frowned. She somehow felt bitter.
Horton held Halle’s hand and carefully avoid the bandage and the wound on her hand.
There was a tiny scratch on his handsome face. He got it when he was protecting Halle.
It was a tiny red wound. But he looked better with that on his face. It was like a symbol of his affection for Halle.
The way he looked at Halle was like a dense net that tightly wrapped around her, making it impossible for others to doubt his sincerity.
"Yes, Emily is my daughter, and she is also our daughter. Our family will forever be together. Halle, I will definitely give you and your daughter happiness. Believe me, no one can break us up."
He was so sincere. Even if Halle did not look at his face, her heart was touched when she heard this voice.
Of course, she believed that Horton would be good to her and Emily.
But Horton’s words didn’t sound like what she expected.
’Did he really understand what I said? ’
’Did he really believe that Emily is his daughter? ’
Halle was confused. She thought Horton didn’t understand what she said.
Just as Halle was about to make things clearer, the phone in her pocket rang.
It was Hilla. She said Emily accidentally hurt herself when she was crying because she needed to see Halle.
Halle hung up the phone and left the hospital in a hurry before she could explain it to Horton.
Halle returned to the Anderson’s. Emily felt and had a scratch. Although it may seem horrible to see her bleed, Emily recovered from it soon.
After some treatment, the little girl resumed her energy and started playing around again.
Hilla heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Halle return.
Although the Anderson’s had many nannies, the kid still felt before they noticed it.
"Halle, do you really agree to move the studio to River City?"
Hilla was a little surprised. In fact, she had already chosen the place for the new studio in River City.
In fact, she was thinking about how she should get Halle to agree.
She didn’t expect Halle to take the initiative to move over. Hilla realized that she should thank Horton for this.
After all, Halle agreed to marry Horton, and the house in the countryside was about to be demolished, so it was not suitable for them to go back.
"Since you and I are staying in River City, it is indeed inconvenient to set up the studio in the countryside."
After all, everyone they cared about was in this place.
Halle looked around and sighed. She thought, "it is probably destiny."
She did not want to have anything to do with Horton in the first place. She was afraid that he would find out about Emily.
But in the end, she was actually going to marry this person, and it was she that told him about who Emily was.
Thinking about it, she found it a bit ridiculous. After everything that happened, they still ended up staying together.
"Halle, do you really settle for this?"
"Yes, we will get married in three days. We will hold the wedding when Horton recovers."
Halle nodded obediently. She wasn’t shy or unhappy.
Hilla gasped. She knew that Horton had always had some feelings for Halle and believed that Horton would treat her sister well.
But she never thought that they were in such a hurry.
She wondered, "He is going to get married three days later. Is it because he is afraid that Halle would go back on her words?
If Bruce was by her side, Hilla would probably ask if Horton had love Halle for years.
Hilla thought, "Halle just agreed to get married and they are now in such a hurry. How impatient he is!"
"Halle, when you sent him food, was Horton so happy that he almost jumped up in bed?"
At this moment, Hilla really couldn’t help but despise Horton in her heart.
To be honest, she really did not understand the heart of a bachelor. She wondered, "what is it like for a guy like him to marry the lady he loves?"
Halle was a bit shocked. Seeing Hilla’s hilarious face, she couldn’t help but smile.
"It’s not as you say. Besides, Horton is very outstanding. In fact, he can marry a beautiful and intelligent girl."
Horton could have married someone better than her.
Halle understood the meaning of marriage to a man and also understood the meaning of marriage to herself.
She wasn’t famous or rich. For Horton’s future development, not only could their marriage not help him, but Horton might also have to take care of her and Emily.
If Horton agreed to return to the Hutt Family to inherit the company, he could become better. At least he could have a more prominent social status.
But if Horton married her, Halle understood that Claus would not let him inherit the company of the Hutt family.
Horton marrying her was to ruin his future.
But Halle did not regret it. She believed that since Horton chose to marry her, he wouldn’t care about the things from the Hutt family.
Although it was impossible for her and Horton to build another company like the Hutt Group.
However, with her and Horton’s abilities, their lives in the future would be very stable and blissful.
Halle smiled sweetly. But she frowned when she took a look at Emily in the living room.
Halle wondered, "Does Horton know that Emily is his biological daughter?"
...
Since having two children, the Anderson family had become busy early in the morning.
Ever since Hilla had two children, Orlenna would take the initiative to cook a pot of chicken soup for Hilla every morning.
She and Halle were busy in the kitchen together, making the chefs and maids not know if they should go in to make breakfast.
"Fate is really wonderful. I didn’t expect you to marry Horton after all these things had happened."
When Orlenna heard the news, she was surprised, delighted, and a little annoyed.
In the beginning, she wanted to make Horton and Halle a couple, but when she thought of the relationship between Halle and Hilla, she gave up.
However, she didn’t expect that Horton and Halle to be together in the end.
They were meant to be together.
Although Orlenna felt a little uncomfortable, seeing that the children could live a happy life and that she has two grandchildren, she was in no mood to care about these things.
Halle smiled embarrassedly, "I didn’t expect it either. Perhaps it was fate."
She didn’t know how to explain it. Perhaps since she met Horton and unexpectedly had Emily, the relationship between them was already unclear.
Halle thought that it was just a one-night stand. It was the impulse she had when she was drunk.
It was a blessing to have Emily after what had happened.
She was the culprit of the one-night stand, and she should be punished for her mistake.
Although she was at a loss when she was just pregnant, she became strong and full of hope for life because of Emily’s existence.
She was grateful to the man who had a one-night stand with her, but she did not expect that the man would be Horton and had a relationship with the Anderson family.
"It’s fate. I pitied Horton since he was young. He lost his mother since he was a child, and his biological father was unwilling to acknowledge him at first. Although we have always taken care of him, I know that he has always minded it."
After all, in Horton’s opinion, although he grew up with Bruce and we had never treated him differently, he would still feel that this is not his real home. He was under the shelter of others.
Orlenna understood, but there was nothing she could do. The more one suffered, the
more sensitive he would be.
"I wish you a happy life."
She was relieved that Halle could take care of Horton.
Orlenna didn’t live in vain all these years. Although Halle was a bit stubborn, she was a gentle and kind person. She could take good care of Horton and make him happy.
Perhaps, with Halle by Horton’s side, he would gradually open up to them.
After all, she had already regarded Horton as her son. It was impossible not to love him at all.
"No, I’m the one being taken care of. You know I was divorced. It is also my good fortune that a person like me can be with him. If not for me, he would have better development in the Hutt family. It is me and Emily who encumbered him."
At the mention of the Hutt family, Orlenna’s mind was mixed.
If Horton was not a child of the Hutt family, she really did not want to let Horton return to that place.
However, after all, she can only be regarded as his adoptive mother, so it was not good for her to intervene in some matters.
Orlenna sighed, "Maybe for Horton, it is his pleasure. You are not the burden of each other since you’re a couple. If he is poor, you will live a hard life with him. If only he can take care of you, he is a responsible man."
That being said, Halle knew that Horton could live well even without the Hutt family.
Halle made the soup and went to the hospital. When Orlenna came out of the kitchen, she saw Margaret coming downstairs with messy hair.
"Mom, can I not sleep at home?"
Margaret walked to the living room and directly dropped herself to the sofa, saying lazily without opening her eyes.
When Orlenna saw her sloppy daughter, she was angry.
"Look at you! No wonder you can’t get married at such a young age. You don’t wash your face, brush your teeth, or change your clothes. Do you want to get moldy here?"
"Mom, I’m already engaged, and I’m going to get married soon. You don’t have to worry about it anymore."
Margaret covered her head with a pillow, and then, she could not help but kick her legs in frustration.
She could not sleep well every night now. Her brain was full of the cries of children.
She thought she had been mentally weak.
To make Hilla sleep well, Orlenna had set up the rooms of the two children on the other side of the corridor.
Coincidentally, it was opposite Margaret’s room.
So, every night, Margaret could hear the children crying one after another.
Not only was that but there also the sound of the babysitter and the maid walking back and forth.
It was so noisy that she couldn’t sleep well all night. She didn’t know whether Hilla slept well. All she knew was that she was going to have a nervous breakdown.
"You are just engaged. The Jorgansens can abandon you at any time. Don’t you worry? Julian hasn’t been back to River City recently. Don’t you know to take the initiative to contact your
"Mom, Julian has only been gone for three days. Don’t tell me you want me to chase him to Far City! I’m telling you that I won’t go anywhere. No matter what you say."
Anyway, she would rather endure the crying of two babies at home than stay with Julian. The worst case is that from tonight, she moved to the guest room on the third floor to sleep.
"How could I have a daughter like you?"
No matter what Orlenna said, Margaret was refused to get up from the sofa.
She needed to sleep now. Since she couldn’t sleep well in the room, she would sleep in the living room.
Orlenna didn’t bother to give her a response and turned to go upstairs to wake Hilla up.
Hilla was already awake to see her two children.
Just as she was feeding the child, Bruce entered.
Hilla didn’t expect that he would get up early and come over. Hilla was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously turned her back to him.
Seeing this, the babysitter and the maid quickly left with a smile.
Bruce walked over to Hilla’s side and sat down. A strong milky fragrance mixed with the faint fragrance of a woman’s body rushed into his nostrils.
Bruce’s mind immediately became muddled.
The sleepiness in the morning dispersed, he looked at Hilla’s snow-white neck.
The baby who was drinking milk opened his eyes and looked right at Bruce.
Bruce was stunned for a moment, then he couldn’t help but frown slightly and glare back.
However, the little fellow was not afraid, but he also grabbed Hilla’s snow-white breasts with both hands and ate them more happily.
Bruce was stunned and felt as if he had been provoked by his son who had just one month old!
