Shirley was startled. Both of them knew well who this guy was that he was referring to.
She pursed her lips and said, âWell, I have seen him, and Iâm his personal psychiatrist now.â
âThen does he know about the children?â Kevin continued to ask.
Back then, Mildred saved her, and Kevin had done the plastic surgery for her.
Kevin was an excellent doctor, involving in psychology, cosmetic surgery, and also cardiology. It could be said that he was an all-rounder when it came to medicine.
Kevin was present when Shirley talked about her own story. Kevin sympathised with her and treated her with more care than any other patient. And the two eventually became good friends.
Kevin discovered that Shirley had a great talent for perfumery, so he introduced her to his master, becoming his junior.
Shirley returned in a heavy tone, âNot sure yet. But given his ingenuity, he might find out very soon.â
âDo you want the kids to come back to him? If you want to, just tell him. If you donât want to... I can help you!â
When Kevin finished talking, Shirleyâs hand holding the steering wheel clenched tightly.
Kevin was different from Mildred. He wouldnât advise her to stay by Bryan Mooreâs side, nor advised her to leave this man too. Kevin respected her position and supported her no matter what she did.
Now that Kevin was asking her this, she was out of her depth and at a loss for words.
âThen letâs talk about it when we meet.â Kevin said gently, âStay focused while driving, and stay away from vans.â
âAlright.â Shirley hung up first.
The two kids had already gone to kindergarten when she got back to the Spennor Residence. Mildred immediately came out of the villa when she saw Shirley return in her car.
As soon as Shirley got out of the car, Mildred went forward with a smile on her face and grabbed Shirleyâs arm, saying, âShirley, Kevin is back. Weâll have a get-together at Phoenix Restaurant tonight.â
âI know. Kevin just called me.â
Mildred was beaming, pulling Shirleyâs arm, and said, âCome in quickly and see what should I wear tonight.â
Shirley chuckled and followed her back to the villa.
The wardrobe was full of the latest season clothes. Mildred took out several sets of long dresses and fiddled with them on Shirley, âShirley, you have a fair skin tone, and this colour suits you well. Moreover, this is also a parent-child outfit. There are two sets of male and female baby outfits. Then you can wear this with the two little ones.â
Shirley took it, glancing at the clothes, and sneered, âMildred, youâre such an easy-going person and why would you become a wimp when meeting someone you like?â
As Kevin came back, the other man was bound to return.
At first, when Shirley saw Mildredâs reaction, she thought that Mildred fancied Kevin. But then she realised that Mildred was just fascinated with Kevinâs young and handsome assistant.
Mildred slowed down her movements, furrowing her brows, âWhat about yourself? Bryan treats you quite well too. Arenât you wimped out too?â
âHow can you compare yourself to my affairs? You knew how I get through it!â Shirley was melancholy and distressed when mentioning Bryan.
Bryanâs antics over the past two days had annoyed her. Shirley had too many concerns about him. First of all, the Moore family was big and complicated. Although she knew that Bryan no longer had a mother, and Madame Moore could accept her two children, what about the other elders of the Moore family?
It wasnât scary that a person to talk about her, but not that a group of people. And in the end, it was her children who suffered.
Shirley had known Bryan well this month. In the Moore family, apart from Scarlett, who treated Bryan well, she never saw anyone else from the Moore family came to the manor. And this showed that Bryan was not getting along with other members of the Moore family.
Having a relationship was a matter for two people, but the marriage was a matter for two families!
Mildred held Shirleyâs hands and said, âSo have you known my difficulty now? My dad is the president of a well-known hospital, while heâs just a man born from a normal family, and he worked very hard to get his position now. Do you think if I go to him and tell him that I like him, would it scare him away? I guess... he wonât even dare to speak to me anymore and avoid me whenever I come close.â
She didnât know much about Kevinâs assistant, as his presence was very low, just knew that he was talented in cosmetic surgery.
He was a man of few words but very handsome. No wonder Mildred could be fascinated with him for years.
âSo, are you going to keep crushing on him?â Shirley raised an eyebrow as she reached out to pinch Mildredâs cheek.
Mildred blushed with embarrassment, wrapping her arms around Shirleyâs waist and her face on Shirleyâs shoulder, âLet me think about it.â
âYou really donât look like a girl who grew up in the West.â Anyway, under Shirleyâs impression, Western girls were more open-minded, whereas they loved when they liked it and let go when they didnât.
Mildred let go of Shirley, turned around, and continued choosing her dress, âYep. I should have a try once. If it fails, Iâll drop the idea forever.â
Shirley chuckled, and she took away two sets of childrenâs clothes for the two little ones to put on after school.
It was almost five in the afternoon when Daisy walked in from the outside with the two kids.
Shirley was on the second floor, and she could hear Emmaâs calling, âMommy, mommy, weâre back...â
Shirley put down the book, got up, and pushed open the office door, heading to the ground floor.
Emma was already halfway up the stairs, coming up step by step. Shirley walked down quickly and picked her up, âDarling, Kevin is back.â
Jacob, who was just behind her, looked up, blinking and smiling with joy, âMommy, does Daddy Mitchell really come back?â
Shirley had wanted to correct the name Daddy Mitchell, but the two kids just wouldnât change it. So, in the end, Shirley didnât bother with it anymore.
Emma was dancing with joy and said, âHooray, Daddy Mitchell is back. Mommy, let Daddy Mitchell come and stay with us at the Spennor Residence.
I want to play with Daddy Mitchell.â
Shirley carried Emma up the stairs and put her down when they got to the second floor. Shirley took Emmaâs schoolbag off her back and placed it on the table.
Jacob approached with a disgusted look on his face, âDaddy Mitchell doesnât like kids who cry all the time.â
âWhoâs crying?â Emma blinked her big eyes.
âWho else? You cried for not being able to snatch otherâs things in kindergarten.â Jacob raised his eyebrows and said.
Emma blew her top, and she rushed at Jacob, tickling him.
Shirley held her forehead and said with a straight face, âEmma, Jacob, stop it.â

The two little ones were shocked, and they stopped, standing still.
Shirley frowned as she asked, âEmma, are you snapping things from your friend again?â
âMommy, I played it first and he ran over to grab it from me. But, Jacob was awesome. He knocked down his castle, and then he cried too.â Emma said smugly.
Shirley looked strained hearing this, and she said out, âJacob Thomas.â
Jacob shrugged his shoulders and said with a stinky face, âWe just canât lose.â
Saying it, Jacob then ran into Mildredâs room.
Shirley didnât know whether to laugh or cry as she stared in the direction the little one had fled...
