Love Contract novel Chapter 227

"Ha ha!" Timothy waved his hand and laughed. "Yes, that's true. Mary, I don't blame Elissa. She is my precious granddaughter. I'm willing to tear this place down if she says so."

Hearing that, Mary opened her mouth but she could not find any words to say. She looked at William for help. She thought that in this way, the kids would be spoiled soon.

William gave her a reassuring look, stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Father!"

"Oh," Timothy snorted, "you're here too?"

"Haha!" Mary lowered her head and chuckled.

"Ahem." William coughed awkwardly. He was embarrassed.

"Dad, I want to see Grandpa's calligraphy!" Elissa said as she struggled to get out of William's arms.

"Me, too!" Alick followed her.

Looking at the two kids admiring his calligraphy, Timothy slowly walked over.

"I'm going to prepare dinner," said Amy. "I'll help you." As she spoke, Mary followed her to the kitchen.

Timothy nodded and then said to William, "Why are you here? Why don't you enjoy the world of you and Mary only like last night? Do you want to take Alick and Elissa back? I won't agree!"

"Ahem." Mary was still in earshot when Timothy spoke. Hearing his words made her blush so she quickened her pace.

"Ahem." William also coughed because of embarrassment. "What's wrong with me coming to see my children? What's wrong with me taking them back?"

"Do you have time?" Timothy glanced at him and added, "You just took over the dock business. Can you take care of them?"

"Yes, you're right. I'm not as leisurely as my father," William answered with hidden meanings. He looked at the desk in front of the French window and asked, "Father, have you moved the whole study to the living room?"

"I had no choice. The two kids don't like to go to the study, so I moved it here." Timothy looked lovingly at the two kids playing at the desk and added, "Mary has made a great contribution to the Lan Family. As a father, I should express my gratitude to her."

"She won't take it," said William. The bank card his father gave Mary back then was still in Kylin International, unused. "It's Mary's business whether she wants it or not, but whether I give it or not represents my own attitude." Timothy waved his hand and said to William, "Don't wander around in front of me. You are too boring. I'll go find Elissa and Alick."

"I'm boring." William scoffed but did not say anything else.

"William." While William was thinking what to do, Mary suddenly came over.

"What's wrong?" William quickly turned around with a smile on his face.

"Take care of Alick and Elissa. I have to go to the filming set now."

"Again? Can't you have a break today?" William asked in surprise. "We haven't had dinner yet."

"It's okay. I can eat at the set. I'm leaving."

"Wait!" William grabbed her hand all of a sudden.

"What are you doing?"

"Kiss goodbye!"

"Go away!"

"Ha ha!" William laughed and suggested, "I'll take you to the set."

"No, thanks." Mary shook her head. "I'd better go by myself. News about us is already everywhere."

"So what?" William disagreed with her. "I don't think it's enough! It's better to let the whole world know about our relationship!"

"I don't want to be besieged on the filming set!" Mary stared him. "I'm an employee of GM Universing Studios now. As the saying goes, two of a trade are enemies. Mr. Lan, please save it."

Suddenly, a car honk was heard from the outside of the family house.

"It's Jill!" Mary said and hurried out. "I'm leaving."

"Mary!" William chased her and followed her out all the way to the car. "I'll go with you."

"Are you free now?" Mary asked while frowning.

"Yep." William nodded.

"Manager Lu!" Jill waved her hands to greet Mary in front of the house.

"Hello!" Mary got into the car, followed by William.

"What do you want to do?"

"I'm going to the set with you... for inspection!" Mary was dumbfounded and speechless.

In the house, Amy walked out of the kitchen in an apron and asked, "Where are Mary and William?"

"They went out," Elissa said as she jumped off the desk.

"Mommy won't sleep with us tonight?" Alick asked in a low voice.

"Mary is going to the set and that brat is following her." After saying that to Amy, Timothy turned to the two kids and said excitedly, "Tonight, you can continue the chess game with Grandpa!"

"Great!" Elissa jumped and clapped her hands and added, "I can build a house with chess pieces!"

Timothy was not expecting that kind of answer.

"The two left before dinner," sighed Amy. "It's sad especially when I have prepared many dishes for tonight."

"It's not that they wouldn't come," Timothy comforted her. "After they make up, let them live here directly."

"You are right." Amy smiled at the thought of Mary and William living in the villa with the kids. "It would be lively if more people are living together. The food will be more delicious. You guys enjoy yourselves. I'll continue cooking."
