Deep Love Hidden From Him novel Chapter 133

Adrienne blinked at her brother; her round and dark eyes were full of innocence. She said, "Alastair, I just promised Mommy not to call him Daddy anymore, but I did not say that I would not contact Theodore anymore."

"Mommy will be angry if she knew."

"If you don't tell her, how would she know?" Adrienne stretched out her hand and pulled on her brother's sleeve. She called his name lovingly, "Alastair..."

Alastair could not refuse whenever Adrienne looked at him like that. He took out his mobile phone, handed it to her, and asked, "Why do you want to contact Theodore?"

"I want to invite him to play with us." Adrienne winked at her brother with a smile and took his mobile phone from his hand when he was unprepared. As she looked through the contact list, she walked towards the children's swing in the community playground.

"Adrienne." Alastair followed her with a frown and asked, "You are inviting him to go to the swimming pool with us, aren't you?"

On the other side, Adrienne had already dialed Theodore's number. "Hello? Theodore..."

"Yes, it's Adrienne. Theodore, are you free this Saturday?"

Adrienne was sitting on the swing. When she called Theodore, there was a bright smile on her face. As she faced the evening sunset in the distance, it was exceptionally bright.

Alastair stood at the side, holding his schoolbag in his arms. Although the word 'worried' was written on his face, he could not do anything about it.

As night fell, Everleigh came back earlier than usual.

When she arrived home, the two children were still awake. Adrienne was reading comic books in the living room.

"Mommy, you're back!" As soon as she saw Everleigh, Adrienne put down her comic book and ran to the porch. She wrapped her arms around Everleigh's neck and kissed her on her cheek.

Everleigh wiped the saliva off her face and looked around the living room. She changed her shoes and asked, "Where is your brother?"

"He's upstairs." Adrienne batted her eyelashes. "Didn't Christopher come back with you?"

"No, he's working overtime tonight." Everleigh carried her daughter to the living room after she changed into her house slippers. She said while she walked, "By the way, Christopher has to work overtime tomorrow so he can't accompany the both of you to the swimming pool."

Adrienne's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard what Everleigh said. "Really?"

Everleigh stopped and asked in confusion, "Why are you so happy?"

"Huh? Nothing." Adrienne immediately hid the joy on her face. "I always thought it would be very troublesome for Christopher to accompany us all the time. Therefore, Alastair and I will go to the swimming pool by ourselves tomorrow."

"Why are you so obedient today?" Everleigh placed her on the sofa and pinched her nose admiringly.

Although the little girl was sensible most of the time, the only difference between her and her brother was that she was very clingy. She always hoped that someone would accompany her, which was normal for a seven-year-old child.

"The both of you don't have to go by yourself. I'm free tomorrow, so I'll go with the both of you."

"Really?"

"Yes, really."

Adrienne quickly hid the unexpected joy in her eyes and turned her eyes steadily.

Did this mean that Theodore would meet her mommy at the swimming pool the next day?

Everleigh did not find anything out of the ordinary with her daughter's behavior. Even though she felt that her daughter was a little happier that day, she only thought that it was because she got off work early and could play with them during the weekend.

After the two children fell asleep, Everleigh washed herself up and laid on her bed. A ‘ding’ sound was heard from beside the pillow. It was a text message popping out on her mobile phone, causing her eyes that had already been closed to reopen.

The text message was from Christopher.

"Were you asleep? I've got someone to look into it. That car that was in Godfrey Group seven years ago had always been used by Madison."
