Chapter 31 Dad, I Want Mom


    Seeing the name of Lois on the screen, Joey angrily threw the phone aside.


    Maggie had been crying since she left the hospital. Joey thought that she would be better and stop


    crying so hard without him. However, none of the servants was useful. They made the child cry so hard


    even passed out.


    When he came back and went upstairs, he found that Maggie''s face was red and the temperature was


    so high. He called the family doctor of the old house in a hurry. When Lois called, Joey was looking at


    the doctor who was giving Maggie an injection.


    In particr, the little girl had a high fever and was still in aa. Her physiological reaction hadn''t


    gone down yet. She twitched two times from time to time, which made people feel sorry for her.


    "Mom..."Maggie''s hoarse and crying voice almost drove Joey crazy!


    Joey looked at the ringing phone irritably again. This woman was so annoying!


    "Hello!" His voice was full of disgust.


    Noticing his displeasure, Lois cautiously asked, "Joey, where is Maggie?"


    "The baby is still little. We have to lower her body temperature at night. And don''t dy this kind of


    thing next time. If it takes too long, the baby will be dull-witted!" The middle-aged doctor put the


    instrument into the medicine box and told the servant beside him.


    The servant noticed the coldness in Joey''s'' eyes and lowered her head.


    Lois was in a daze. The sound from the other end of the phone echoed in the ward, "the child will


    be dull-witted if it is too long!"!


    There was only one child in Gu Family, and that was Maggie.


    She asked anxiously, "is Maggie sick? What happened to her? Joey, how is she? "


    Hearing her flustered voice and looking at her daughter''s red face, Joey was speechless.


    After a long while, Lois didn''t get any reply. She asked anxiously, "Joey, is this how you be as a father!


    What happened to Maggie! is she having a fever? "

    Different from the pleading at the beginning, the sharp questioning made Joey angry. "How do I be a


    father? You should see how you being a mother! "


    Putting down the phone in his hand, Joey raised his chin with cold eyes, indicating the servant to send


    the doctor out. The doctor tidied up his things and followed the servant downstairs.


    Looking at Maggie''s red and swollen eyes from a distance, Joey asked coldly, "what else do you want


    to say?"


    Lois kept silent.


    Listening to the faint breath on the phone, Joey remembered the question she asked when she got


    along with Maggie in the afternoon. Thinking that she couldn''t wait to take the child away from him, he


    was very angry.


    Joey didn''t show any politeness and said in a deep voice, "you know why Maggie is sick this time. You


    irritated her to cry and make it worse. How dare you question me?"


    However, Lois thought of Sally. Their marriage hade to an end. If she couldn''t take Maggie away,


    Sally would cut in. No matter whether Joey loved Maggie or not, Sally wouldn''t let go of her child easily.


    Ignoring Joey''s usation, Lois went straight to the point, "Maggie won''t grow up happily with you!"


    I know that she will only cry if she follows you! Joey didn''t say that. Heughed angrily and said, "I think


    it''s necessary for you to go to the neurology department. Don''t bother me anymore!"


    "Joey Gu..."Lois was about to mention Sally, but Joey had already hung up the phone.


    Joey tried hard to hold back the words that were about toe out of her throat, "I don''t think you are


    much greater than me. How could a mother who loves her child ask such a question to the child!"! You


    are so bad!


    No child could face her parents'' divorce calmly. How could Lois ask such a cruel and ruthless question


    to his child! She didn''t deserve to be a mother!


    Joey tried her best to suppress the anger in his heart. He walked slowly to the bed. The little girl''s face


    had faded away from red and turned pale, and his thin cherry lips were bloodless.


    He sat on the bed slowly, brushed away the hair on her forehead and gently pinched the little girl''s face.


    He really regretted what he had done for so many years. He didn''t care about them, so Lois quarreled


    with him like this. He didn''t take good care of them, so his daughter never took the initiative to get close


    to him


    He watched Lois pinching Maggie''s little face. He was anxious and pitiful. They were in a good


    rtionship and Lois taught the child well, so he was full of happiness. But they never mentioned him


    voluntarily. He couldn''t get involved in the topic between them, just like an outsider.


    He hung up the phone not because he was angry, but because he was afraid. He had never tried to


    please women. The most he did to her was not to mock or refuse. He no longer wanted to let himself


    say something bad that made her heart ache.


    And he didn''t want to make the rtionship between the three of them more and more stiff. If Lois was


    willing toe back, he would never go out to flirt with women, nor engage in social activities at night.


    He would not get drunk ande backte to make her worried


    Joey stayed in front of the bed for a whole night. During this period, when the servants cooled Maggie''s


    body, Joey sat aside and watched.


    He didn''t want to admit, but he had to admit that during the absence of Lois, Maggie had lost weight.


    Although the baby fat on her face was still so soft, her body was thinner.


    When Maggie woke up, it was already the next morning. She opened her eyes and looked at her father


    sitting at the bedside.


    Joey''s eyes were dark, and it seemed that there was stubble on his chin overnight. With a gloomy


    expression, he rubbed Maggie''s soft hair and said, "Maggie, don''t make dad worry about you like this in


    the future..."


    The little girl reached out her hands to hold Joey''s big hands, and begged with red eyes, "Dad, I want


    mom..."


    Joey nodded slightly, "okay."


    As expected, Maggie finished her meal obediently and waited for her father to keep his promise.


    In the past, Gu Consortium would warmly celebrate the arrival of HN Group, and this year was no


    exception.


    It was luxuriously decorated, with various dishes and a partner of handsome men and beautiful women.


    Joey was still alone. He walked past the guests casually. Most of them were the employees of the


    company, and of course, there were also many daughters from rich families he invited.


    Joey turned his head and told his secretary to check the trace of Kent. Then he lowered his head and


    whispered in his ear for a while. Steve looked at his boss awkwardly and reluctantly agreed. Then he


    turned around toplete the task given by his boss.


    Kent arrivedte. He was wearing an Armani ck suit, which set off his thin body, tall and long, well


    arranged hair, a gentle smile, and a pair of gold rimmed sses, making him look more elegant.


    All thedies present looked at him with admiration and infatuation. Kent walked into the hall of the


    party in silence, as if he didn''t notice that he had already made the spring water drunk.


    When Kent arrived, Joey was smoking impatiently, leaning against the window. Half of his face was


    hidden in the wheel of light, kept changing.
