My Husband Warm The Bed (Karen Daly) novel Chapter 1424

All these years, for Lawrie's sake, Vanessa had been gritting her teeth and swallowing the insults. However, seeing her bear it, those d*mned people thought that she was a pushover and asked her for money whenever they needed it, even while speaking ill of her from time to time.

She didn't care what they said about her, but she wouldn't allow anybody to speak ill of Lawrie. Lawrie didn't get to choose the circumstances of his birth, so there was no reason for him to bear the name of being a b*stard.

It was only because Fiona knew Vanessa didn't dare tell Julien about Lawrie, that was why she was acting so boldly.

If provoked, Vanessa would take the initiative to tell Julien about Lawrie's existence. She would allow Julien to call the shots on whether he wanted her to stay or leave.

Even after making such a decision, Vanessa didn't feel less relaxed as she didn't have much money. She didn't even have enough money for Lawrie's upcoming operations. If Julien really drove her away, she would be at a complete loss.

"Mommy..." Lawrie, who was still under the covers, flipped over all of a sudden. He reached out, grabbed Vanessa with his tiny hand, and said, "Mommy! I'm scared! I don't want to be away from you again!"

Vanessa said, "Lawrie, I'm right here. Rest well, there's no need to be afraid..." Lawrie was feeling so insecure that Vanessa made up her mind to keep him by her side.

The weekend passed in the blink of an eye.

On Monday morning, Vanessa got up earlier than usual because she had to spend more time preparing a nutritious breakfast for Lawrie.

When she was done, she went back to the room to wake Lawrie up. "Lawrie, it's time to get up!"

As soon as Vanessa called out, Lawrie got up and threw himself into Vanessa's arms, saying, "Mommy..."

Vanessa kissed him and said, "It's time to get up, there's no use of acting cute."

Lawrie continued to snuggle in Vanessa's arms and said, "Mommy, I want more kisses."

Vanessa held Lawrie's little face and said, "My little baby hasn't taken a bath yet though. He's so dirty that his Mommy doesn't want to kiss him."

Lawrie was speechless.

How could his Mommy say that he was dirty when he was so cute? He did not think she was cute anymore either!

Vanessa quickly kissed him and said, "I'm just kidding with you. Now, can we get out of bed and wash up?"

With a sweet smile, Lawrie said, "Okay, let's clean ourselves up."

Once Vanessa had finished helping Lawrie wash up and had come out of the room, they saw that Winnie had also gotten up. She said, "Vanessa, you can just leave Lawrie to me. You don't have to get up so early."

Vanessa said, "Miss Ziglar, I'm already so glad that you're able to help me take care of Lawrie. If I'm around and I can make breakfast, I'll do it. But if I'm not here, I'll have to trouble you."

Winnie said, "If you hadn't hired me, I wouldn't even have known where to find a job now. So don't you worry about troubling me."

Vanessa smiled and said, "Well, thank you then."

Vanessa treated Winnie well because she hoped that Winnie would take good care of Lawrie. After all, Lawrie was only a child and it took a lot of effort to care for him.

Lawrie blinked and listened to the two of them talk. He vaguely understood that his Mommy was about to leave him again. He quickly grabbed Vanessa and said, "Mommy, don't go."

When she had gotten her tea and returned to her workstation, her colleagues had started to arrive. She ignored them and started working on the documents that would be used later at work.

A project in a large group like Rovio could easily be worth tens of millions and even billions. All documents would have to go through several stages before reaching top management.

Even if the first level made a mistake, it would not be a big problem if the next level detected it.

Once the documents arrived at Vanessa's department, they would be handed over directly to the president, and there was no room for mistakes. During the peak periods, it was normal for them to constantly work overtime. During non- peak periods... Well, Vanessa had been working here for a year and she had yet to experience a non- peak period.

In the eyes of the average person, a big boss like Julien probably spent every day sitting around, having drinks and not doing anything, yet still made huge sums of money!

It was true that he earned a lot of money, but Julien was never one to laze around. On the contrary, he had a lot of work to do every day and spent most of his time on planes.

It was possible that he'd be busy with a project in Averland in the morning, and at night, he could be working on another project thousands of miles away in a different country. He spent a lot more time travelling from one place to another than your normal office worker and a lot more was expected of him.

Therefore, fairness prevailed in the world. If one wanted to get more generous rewards, one would have to put in that much more time and energy.

Vanessa had just saved a document she had checked but had yet to close it when Joel rushed over and said, "Vanessa, Mr. Kyle's been up the whole night. Can you get him a cup of coffee, the sooner the better? He still has an important meeting to host later."

"Okay, I'll do it right now," she said. Did Julien think he was a man of steel? It was normal practice for him to get so occupied that he'd stay up the whole night and continue working the next day. If he didn't change his habits, his body would eventually break down no matter how healthy he was.

Even if he didn't care for himself, his family would be worried about him. Why didn't he cherish his family when they were so wonderful?
