Chapter 305
Chapter 305
When Charlie left the bedroom, he saw a small figure standing in the doorway.
Larry had changed his clothes and was wearing the same black suit as Charlie, but with a little pink bow tie on his collar, which was more childlike. At this time, his two short arms were crossed in front of his chest, and he didn't look very happy.
Charlie walked over and picked up his son with one arm.
Larry secretly glanced at Madge who came out of the bedroom behind Charlie. He puffed out his cheeks on both sides and snorted in Charlie's ear. "I said that I don't like that woman!"
"Then who do you like?" Charlie asked, pursing his lips.
It was not the first time that Larry had heard this question, and his answer was still the same. "Of course, it's Wendy."
Wendy...
Charlie's eyes were deep.
Indeed, Larry had rarely been close to anyone except Wendy since he was a child.
And for some reason, it's like she has magic in her, always attracting people, it seemed that not only his son liked her, even he...
Without asking the driver to come over, Charlie drove the white Land Rover himself. Larry was arranged to sit on the children's seat in the back, Madge naturally wanted to get closer to Charlie and opened the co-driver's door. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Throughout the whole process, Larry's face was tensed up, and he puffed out his cheeks like a frog.
His unhappiness could only be reflected in his glare, glare, and glare!
The Land Rover pulled up in front of a Chinese restaurant. Just then, the car from Hogg's Mansion arrived at the same time.
Larry didn't smile at all even when he saw his grandfather. It was only when he saw Donna that he reluctantly called out, "Granny!"
Although Donna lived abroad all the year round, Charlie also took his son to visit Donna during this period, so Larry was relatively close to Donna.
"Hey! Larry, come here!" Donna hurriedly waved.
Gilbert felt a little jealous when he saw his younger sister holding his grandson's hand. He also strived to hold Larry's other hand, lovingly touching Larry's head.
Then Madge, who followed Charlie to get off the car, also said with a smile, "Aunt!"
Donna had only returned to the country twice in the past four years. Most of the time, it was Charlie who had brought his son to the United States to visit Donna. However, Madge knew that she needed to please anyone in the Hogg family.
"Oh, I've told you many times! Although you and Charlie are engaged, you haven't gotten married yet, so don't rush to call me aunt. There will be plenty of time in the future. You can call me Mr. Hogg or Donna. It's up to you!" Donna finished her words quickly and didn't care about Madge's stiff face. She looked down at Larry kindly and said, "Larry, can I take you in?"
Larry nodded and was led into the restaurant by his grandfather and granny.
Charlie followed them with his hands in his pockets, and Madge had no choice but to follow him.
The private room was on the third floor. It didn't take long to get there after getting out of the elevator, and the waiter had already opened the door for them.
After coming out of the elevator, Charlie held Larry with one arm, mostly because Larry was born withdrawn, and wouldn't let anyone hold him except Charlie, and now Wendy of course.
Mr. and Mrs. Gray had already sat inside.
As soon as Gilbert walked in, he said in a hurry, "Hey brother, you've been waiting for a long time!"
"No, no, we've just arrived!" Kim got up from his seat and greeted Gilbert, and reached out to shake hands with Donna, who was next to him.
Linda kept her smile on her face, especially when she saw her daughter and Charlie coming in after Gilbert and Donna, she believed that her daughter and Charlie were a perfect match. However, when she saw the little boy Charlie was holding in his arms, her eyes turned cold.
Linda knew exactly who the child's mother was...
Linda's smile didn't change. She interrupted and said, "Please take a seat. We're all family. Don't just stand there!"
When the three of the Gray family, the three of the Hogg family plus a little boy sat down, the private room didn't seem so empty. Although it was a family dinner, Charlie didn't feel any warm atmosphere at all, but rather the same as a normal dinner party social gathering.
Opening the menu, in front of Gilbert and Charlie, Madge tried very hard to get close to Larry, "Larry, what do you like to eat? Tell me, we can order all of them for you!"
"I only like noodles!"
Larry, who was sitting between Charlie and Donna, raised his eyebrows.
In front of Larry, Madge almost hit the wall every time, and she didn't hold much hope. It was just that she couldn't miss anything that she's supposed to do in front of Gilbert and Charlie. So after getting a simple response from Larry, she's very happy, "You like noodles? Larry, wait for me, I'll go and call the waiter now to see what delicious noodles they have here!"
As she spoke, she was about to stand up.
"No need." Charlie stopped her and glanced at his son. "The noodles Larry likes can't be made here. Someone made them specially for him."
Embarrassed, Madge sat back. But when she heard the word "someone", she smelled danger and guessed who it might be...
Larry picked up the child's cup with both hands and took a sip. He was in a much better mood. The episode passed quickly, and the waiter served the dishes one by one.
Linda gave her husband a few meaningful glances. Unfortunately, Kim didn't react as if he didn't see them. She had no choice but to say, "Brother Hogg, Charlie is 34 this year, right?"
"That's right!" Gilbert nodded.
Madge knew that her mother was going to bring up the marriage, so she lowered her head and pretended to be shy.
Linda continued, "It's been four years since these two kids got engaged, isn't it time to get married? Two days ago, I went to a temple in the suburbs with a friend and asked the eminent monk about Charlie and Madge's marriage there, and the monk told me that the sooner, the better. I think this year is not bad, and there will be a lot of good dates in the next half year!"
"You're right about that!" Gilbert nodded and looked at his son, "Charlie, what do you think?"
Charlie didn't answer, but stood up as soon as Gilbert said it. He waved his phone, "Excuse me, I have to go out to answer this phone call. It's business."
Since Charlie had explained the reason with the last two words, Gilbert didn't know what to say.
Charlie had left his seats, which made the atmosphere a lot awkward. However, it did not affect the fact that Linda and Gilbert were still chatting.
"Ah!" Donna suddenly put down the teacup in her hand and interrupted with a low cry, "Marriage is a big event in life, and it can't be discussed with a few words. I thought today's dinner was mainly a reception for me! What is this? You're not going to force them to get married, are you? I think you're confusing today's priorities!"
"Let's eat!"
After finishing her words, Donna turned to the other side and gave Larry a look.
Larry immediately said in a soft voice, "I'm hungry."
