Chapter 337 I Do Not Mind
After Yuliana opened the door, Christopher put Rowan in the car.
As soon as the young boy was out of Christopher’s arms, he immediately reached out and grabbed Christopher’s
fingers. “Mr. Coke, are you leaving?”
Christopher froze for a moment and replied, “Yes. You can’t bear to see me leave?”
Rowan hesitated before nodding in response.
Christopher pinched Rowan’s chubby cheek and said, “I will come to see you someday.” After a pause, he added,
“To play with your car.”
“All right.”
Yuliana stood outside the car, quietly watching the interaction between the father and son. She felt slightly
conflicted.
Yuliana wondered if there was a strange connection between the father and son. It was clear that Rowan did not
reject Christopher. Even after only meeting him twice, Rowan had an inexplicable reliance on him. Christopher
closed the car door and glanced at Yuliana, standing beside him. When their gazes met, he probed, “I plan to visit
him more often from now on. Is that okay?”
Yuliana knew that the “him” referred to Rowan.
In fact, she would never allow Christopher to disturb her and her son’s life if this was back when they were just
divorced. Nevertheless, it had almost been three years since then. Feelings like love and hatred could die down in
those three years.
“Sure.” Yuliana paused and added, “However, you can’t tell him that you’re his dad for the time being.” Yuliana did
not do this out of selfishness. She was just worried that Rowan would have difficulty accepting the fact for a while. It
might irritate him instead.
Moreover, there were many things that she still did not know how to explain to Rowan.
After all, in Rowan’s perception, his parents should live together like Jasper’s parents.
Christopher answered, “Okay.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith that, Christopher walked away without saying anything else.
There were two parking spaces between Wesley’s and Yuliana’s cars. When Christopher passed by Wesley’s car, he
looked at him. However, there was no communication between them.
Wesley only approached Yuliana when Christopher had left.
He asked, “Do you want me to give you a ride?”
Yuliana chuckled at his question. “I didn’t drink. So why should you give me a ride? Besides, our houses aren’t in the
same direction. Isn’t that troublesome for you?”
Wesley stood with his back against the light. Hearing Yuliana’s words, he stayed silent for a moment. Then, he
replied in a low voice, “I don’t mind.”
Yuliana was a little stunned. She looked at him subconsciously and met his deep gaze.
This time, Wesley did not bother to conceal his feelings. The surging emotions in his eyes were all for Yuliana to see.
Yuliana was taken aback by his intense gaze. She did not know how to react to that.
Wesley took two steps forward.
The distance between them instantly drew closer. It was so close that it somewhat went beyond the boundaries of
ordinary friends.
Yuliana subconsciously tried to step back, but Wesley reached out and wrap his arm around her waist. He pulled her
toward him. As a result, she bumped into his chest.
Frowning, Yuliana called out his name. “Wesley.”
Yuliana’s voice was not fierce. If anything, it was quite gentle. Nonetheless, Wesley could still feel that his actions
made her feel uncomfortable.
“So what?” he thought.
Wesley lowered his gaze and stared at Yuliana’s plump and moist lips. He uttered with a smirk, “Yuliana, the flower
I’ve been taking care of for three years isn’t meant to be plucked by others.”
Before Yuliana could realize the meaning of Wesley’s words, she saw him lean down.
Sensing what Wesley was about to do, Yuliana subconsciously tried to dodge. However, he grabbed her chin
forcefully and kissed her lips gently. Then, he bit her lower lip.
Yuliana frowned at the painful sensation and pushed him back.
Wesley let go of his hand. He also released the arm that was holding Yuliana’s waist.
Furrowing her brows, Yuliana met his gaze. “Wesley…”
She wanted to say something. Nevertheless, she did not know what to say for a moment.
Wesley raised his hand and stroked Yuliana’s forehead and the corners of her eyes with his fingers. He said,
“Yuliana, you should know my feelings for you by now. I hope you will go back and think about it.”
Yuliana frowned even more at those words. She wanted to say that she had always regarded Wesley as a friend.
Nonetheless, it seemed somewhat awkward to still call him a friend after the kiss just now.
Besides, she had no intention of starting a new relationship right now.
Yuliana contemplated for a while and still wanted to make it clear to Wesley. He seemed to have figured out her
intention and urged before she could say anything. “Roe is watching. Quickly get in the car.” Yuliana looked toward
the back of the car. Sure enough, a small figure was leaning against the window.
“I wonder if he has seen what happened just now,” Yuliana mused, feeling a little emotional. Looking at Wesley, she
opened the door and got into the car without saying a word.
Yuliana started the engine. When she was about to drive off, there was a sudden knock on the window. She wound
down the window as Wesley rested his arm on the roof of the car. Bending down, he looked at her and remarked,
“Yuliana, what I said just now wasn’t a joke, nor was it a discussion with you.”
“Wesley!”
“Shh!” Wesley put his index finger to his lips. “I know what you want to say. Still, you can’t convince me, so don’t
waste your breath. I have to leave Juxshire for the next two days. I’ll contact you when I’m back. Drive slowly on
your way back. Stay safe!”
After saying that, Wesley straightened up and took a few steps to the side.
Yuliana slowly let out a sigh of relief. After rolling up the window, she drove away from the parking lot.
When Yuliana drove to the exit, she glanced to the side and found that Christopher, Elaine, and Craig were still

impatiently.
Christopher glanced at the car from the corner of his eye when Yuliana drove past them. He watched until the car
disappeared into the traffic before retracting his gaze.
Thursday and Friday went by in a flash.
Yuliana had to meet an important client on Saturday afternoon. After having lunch with Rowan, she left the house.
It was time for Rowan to take a nap after lunch.
He usually slept from one o’clock to about three o’clock.
After putting Rowan to bed, Hailey also planned to go back to her room and take a nap.
Just as Hailey put down the things in her hands and was about to return to her room, she heard the doorbell ring
“Who could be visiting at this hour?” she wondered as she went to open the door.
However, Hailey froze as soon as she opened the door.
“Hailey.”
Hailey was stunned for a while. It was not until Christopher called out to her first that she came back to her
senses
Hailey’s gaze was filled with sadness. She stepped forward and sized up Christopher carefully with tears in her eyes.
Thankfully, you didn’t lose weight. You look even more muscular than before. It’s just that you’ve become tanner.”
Seeing the changes in Christopher, Hailey was both relieved and heartbroken.
The person in front of her looked exactly the same as Christopher. Despite that, Hailey felt as if he was a different
person, which made her feel sad.
Hailey wiped her tears and let out a long sigh. “Come in, don’t just stand at the door.”
She dragged Christopher into the house.
Christopher scanned the surroundings. The mansion was not big, but the decoration inside was harmonious. Instead
of looking like a gloomy show house, there was a sense of home. The corner of the living room by the window was
covered with a thick carpet, on which were some children’s toys.
There were traces of life everywhere else.
