Chapter 56 The Third Father And Son


    "Molly! Come here! " Cleve called Molly loudly. He was so annoyed that Molly almost ignored him when


    he was at home. When Shirley was at home, Molly just wandered around with her. When Shirley left,


    Molly went back to his kennel and couldn''t be amused with food.


    "Why are you shouting?" Shirley doted on Molly very much. Hearing Cleve speaking in such a loud


    voice, she was a little dissatisfied.


    Criticized by Shirley, Cleve was not convinced and grumbled, "it''s just a dog! Why do you protect it so


    much! I''m your son! What''s the matter? "


    "Brat, I told you many times. Be nice to Molly. No wonder Molly didn''t y with you at ordinary times! "


    "Lily, Just y with Molly," Shirley said, ring at Cleve. Then she went to the kitchen. As the whole


    family were celebrating New Year''s Eve together, she wanted to show her cooking skill.


    "Mom, let me help you." Rachel said. When she saw Shirley walking towards the kitchen, she also


    offered to help Shirley.


    After they left, there were only three people left in the living room. They were Jonathan, James, Cleve,


    Lillias and Molly. Except Molly and Lily, the other three persons didn''t make any movement.


    All of a sudden, Molly walked away as if it remembered something. Then it waved its big tail and trotted


    to a shelf. Lily looked in the direction of Molly and found that the shelves were full of dog toys and


    snacks. It turned out to be Molly''s secret base.


    Standing in front of the shelf, Molly suddenly reached a ball on the top of the shelf. It bit the ball with its


    mouth and ran happily to Lily. It ced the ball on Lily''s leg and theny on the ground, trying to shake


    its tail and looking up at Lily.


    Lily had thought that Molly wanted to y basketball with her, but she didn''t dare to do that in other


    person''s house. She discreetly stole a nce at James and wanted to know his opinion.


    With a smile in his eyes, James looked at Molly and said, "y with her."


    Lily thought that he had agreed with her to y with Molly, and she was thrilled inside. But in fact,


    James had agreed with Molly''s requirement. In his eyes, Lily was always good.

    As she was about to walk to the other side of the corridor and y with Molly, she heard James saying,


    "take off your coat. You''ll get sweatyter."


    After that, James stood up and was about to take off Lily''s coat. He took the coat and ced it on the


    back of the sofa next to him. Looking at Lily and Molly ying on one side, he adjusted his sitting


    posture to keep Lily in his sight all the time.


    Seeing that James treated Lily so well that he took her clothes personally, Jonathan and Cleve couldn''t


    help but be surprised.


    "Brother, it''s too much for you! Although Shirley didn''t mention it, seeing Lillias, Cleve had gotten a


    rough idea of things. Cleve didn''t expect that James would treasure Lillias so much.


    Jonathan didn''t retort, nor did he disagree Cleve''s words.


    However, James only looked at Molly and Lily and said, "when do I need you to know everything about


    me?"


    "I just care about you! You... "


    "No need." James interrupted coldly.


    "Shut up! You quarrel every time you meet! " ncing at Lily, Jonathan thought for a moment and


    lowered his voice, "Cleve''s saying was right. What are you going to do next? Do you want to continue


    like this? "


    After all, Jonathan was a business woman. The first thing that came to his mind was the long-term


    n. He didn''t want her son, who he valued most, to lose his bright future because of a child.


    James didn''t respond. It was his responsibility to protect Lily.


    Jonathan sighed and continued, "we will take good care of her. As you can see, we will treat her well.


    You just need to do your job, manage thepany well, and find a suitable person, you have to


    consider the rest of your life! Cleve has been married, but you hasn''t got any family yet. How can you


    be so rude? "


    James was never worried about his career, but in other aspects, he was a little... There were a lot of


    girls outside who wanted to marry James. But all of them needed to be epted by James, and also


    approved by the Ling Family.


    Suddenly, a person came to her mind, "Oh, a few days ago, Charlotte from the Qiao Family visited us.


    She is a good girl." The meaning behind Jonathan''s words was clear. Both Jonathan and Shirley were


    quite satisfied with Charlotte. Although Charlotte was the favorite daughter of the Qiao Family, she was


    not arrogant at all. She was gentle and generous. Such a girl was the best choice for the elders.


    "Do you want the Ling Family and the Qiao Family to unite by marriage?" James'' face turned cold.


    "It''s because parents saw that Charlotte also likes you, so they propose so!" Cleve said, breaking the


    silence.


    James cast a cold nce at him and said, "you don''t need to get involved in my business. If you insist


    on tying me to Charlotte, then you are going to ruin the Qiao Family and the Ling Family. "


    The Qiao family was famous and influential in the government. Charlotte was the beloved daughter of


    the Qiao Family. If she married into an ordinary family, that would be okay. But if she didn''t marry into


    an ordinary family, even if they didn''t have any other purpose. However, everyone knew what they


    wanted to do. As for James, he was the most outstanding member of the Ling Family. With the Ling


    Family''s status in the business circle, if the two families united, they would really be on the verge of


    copse.


    Jonathan had also thought of such things, butpared with others, he believed that Charlotte was the


    most suitable one to James.


    While Lily and Molly were ying. Lily threw the balls, Molly ran over to pick them up, and Lily kept


    smiling.


    "You can''t take care of her like this. Anyway, let her live here first." It seemed that Jonathan announce


    his decision.


    "Do you think I will agree?" James smiled,ughing at his father''s simplicity. How could James put Lily


    elsewhere.


    "Are you unhappy that dad and mom will help you to raise Lily? Forget it, Dad, don''t worry about him


    anymore. Anyway, he won''t appreciate it." Cleve gave Jonathan a difficult and embarrassing position.


    Jonathan snorted heavily to express his dissatisfaction, but he said nothing. He didn''t want to have a


    quarrel with James on New Year''s Eve.


    He shifted his gaze from James to Cleve, and suddenly changed the subject. "It''s James''s business.


    How about you! Cleve! You and Rachel have been married for years. When will you have a child? "


    At the mention of the child, Cleve''s face darkened. "Well, why did you mention it?" he asked


    Jonathan wanted to say something more, but Shirley walked out of the kitchen and said, "everyone,


    <pe here. It''s time for dinner. Our family haven''t been together like this for a long time. "
