Joseph caught the chance to take a picture of the father and daughter beside the Maybach with his phone.
In the photo, two rows of Chinese parasols on the clean and broad avenue of Li"s manor were the perfect foil for the black Maybach, and right in the middle, Harry in a white shirt was enjoying the kiss from Nicole in his arms.
Harry put her down and fixed her messy bangs.
Joseph could never miss any wonderful moment. He photographed it to make it an eternal picture.
Lola, who was immersed in the beautiful moment, recovered and trotted towards them. Joseph was raising his cellphone, ready to take photos of the whole family.
He made it! Harry didn"t let him down. As soon as Lola reached them, Harry hugged her and kissed her on the forehead.
Nicole, with a bright smile, looked up at her father who was kissing her mother.
The beautiful scene wasn"t damaged even though Lola was standing with her back to the lens.
After taking these gorgeous photos, Joseph fled fast to the villa.
He decided to use the photos to ask Harry for something. What should he ask for? He would think it over...
Harry"s kiss made Lola blushed. She immediately pushed him away and said, "Nicole is here..."
The smart Nicole covered her mouth, smiled and quipped, "I don"t see anything." Then she hurried to cover her big eyes with the other hand.
"Awesome, Nicole!" Harry embraced Lola again, with the slightest intention to let her go. Lola pouted, gave him a quick glance and slapped his arm off.
She then bent down to pick Nicole up. "Are we going or not?" She asked the man, who looked complacent.
Harry took over Nicole from her, opened the door of the back seat and put her onto the new child seat gently.
Then he pushed Lola onto the front pa.s.senger seat. Lola looked back at the child seat and mixed feelings filled her up.
"Hey, I"m going to see my father. What are you going for? How should I introduce you? My boss? My boyfriend? Neither is appropriate..." It had confused her for a long time.
Harry stared the Maybach and darted a glance sideways at her, "I"ll introduce myself!"
"How will you introduce yourself? That"s the point!" Lola took a glance at her daughter who was staring at them curiously.
"Does that matter?" Harry turned the Maybach round indifferently and headed for the shopping center.
Lola pouted, but didn"t argue.
Harry took them to the supermarket to buy some water and food for the trip. The charming family attracted a lot of admiring glances.
But they were not a real family. Lola picked things quickly and took Nicole back to the Maybach.
Harry didn"t force her. He went alone to the shopping center and bought some gifts before he returned to the Maybach.
He then drove directly to the expressway. X City lied on the border of A Country and D City. It would take five or six hours on the expressway.
Thanks to Nicole, the Maybach rang with cheers and laughter.
Staring at her daughter, who was singing with her head tilted to one side, and Harry, who looked obviously happy, Lola felt unreal.
There were countless times when she dreamed of the happy family at night.
She closed her eyes to hide her tears. Harry thought she was tired, so he stopped at the rest area.
He laid the back seat flat into a small bed, so that Lola and Nicole may have a rest after they came back from the toilet. "We"re expected to arrive in less than two hours. You may have a rest."
Harry put Nicole onto the seat. Kids were always energetic! Nicole crawled happily on it soon after she took off her shoes.
After Lola lay down, she looked at Harry who was ready to go, "Rest first. We"re not in a rush!"
It was very tiring to drive. She knew it well!
"No need. I"m not tired. Have some sleep and I"ll wake you up when we arrive!" Harry closed the door and went back to the driving seat.
Nicole fell asleep fast, but Lola stayed awake.
She sat up. Noticing the violent shaking, she protected Nicole from falling down with one hand.
"Harry..."
He looked back through the rearview mirror, "Not sleepy?"
"No!" Lola fell silent when she looked at the man who was driving carefully.
She wondered if he was also taking good care of Yolanda. Would he marry Yolanda if she didn"t meet him?
She bit her lips and asked, "If it weren"t for me, would you have married her?" Was she a little sentimental?
Harry kept silent for quite a while before he replied, "I"m with you now! So stop thinking useless thoughts!"
Lola didn"t speak again for the rest of the trip. She only stared at her daughter and the man in the front quietly.
Almost two hours later, it had past 2 pm when the Maybach got off the expressway.
They had something to eat in a restaurant and checked the guidance system. It was still a two-hour-plus ride from there to Echo Bay where Carl lived.
Staring at the man who was having lunch elegantly, she felt lucky that he drove them here. Or they would feel bad in the transfer of buses.
She asked after thinking for a while, "How about staying overnight here and starting off tomorrow morning."
Harry thought about it and asked Nicole who was eating with appet.i.te, "Nicole, tell me if you feel tired."
Nicole nodded honestly, "A little." It was the first time that she had been travelling in a car for such a long time!
"Okay. We"ll check into a hotel then." Harry made a quick decision and speed up to finish up his lunch.
Lola was speechless and took a look at them. All right!
They didn"t find a four-star hotel recommended on an APP until they drove around the city.
Harry kept Lola and Nicole waiting on the sofa in the hall and went to check in.
He asked for a presidential suite and the greeter led them upstairs.
Glancing around the suite, Harry frowned. The room was even not as good as a standard room of a three-star hotel in A Country.
But the good news was the bed was big enough for all the three of them!
After unpacking the suitcase, Lola asked the man who was still playing with Nicole, "Don"t you go back to your room for some rest?"
Harry glimpsed at her and asked the little girl beside him, "Nicole, would you like to sleep with your mommy and me tonight?"
Nicole nodded immediately. Noticing her speechless mommy, Nicole suddenly drew her arms around Harry"s neck tightly, "Mommy, let"s sleep together tonight!"
"Okay, Nicole, let"s sleep together tonight!" They were unified. What else could Lola argue?
