President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 408

He refused me, but I was more relieved.

The next morning, Philip still came very early.

But I found that he didn’t change.

He used to change a T-shirt every time he came, but this time he was wearing the same one as yesterday.

And he had black circles.

I realized and asked, “did you go back to school yesterday?”

“Yes, I caught the last bus.” Philip said immediately.

I looked at his clothes and said, “you haven’t changed your clothes. You’re lying to me.”

Philip was exposed and her ears were slightly red. “I missed the last bus, so I stayed in a small hotel all night.”

I could see that he didn’t sleep well.

It was all my fault. I came back too late.

I was a little sorry. I said, “go upstairs.”

“Huh?”

“Go upstairs.”

My voice was tough.

Philip went upstairs at once. I opened the door of a bedroom and said to him, “in the future, if you don’t have time to go back to school, you can live in this room. You can put your clothes in the closet and use the washing machine. You can hang your clothes on the balcony. The bathroom is at the end of the corridor.”

“I can’t do this...”

Philip raised his hand and scratched his head.

“It’s okay. You can play more with Lester in the evening. I can have more rest.”

Then Lester woke up.

He saw Philip and I standing at the door of a room. He blinked and said, “will Philip live here in the future?”

“Yes, if your mother comes back late, I will...”

“Great!” Before Philip finished, Lester rushed over and took Philip’s hand. “Can we play racing games?”

“No, you have to have breakfast and study first.”

Philip said firmly.

Philip not only played with Lester, but also taught him mathematics.

They were together for two weeks, but Lester learned a lot.

Usually I was busy at work and ignored it.

Lester listened to Philip and nodded, “OK, let’s have breakfast.”

He went downstairs happily.

Seeing Lester so happy, I really appreciated Chloe’s sending me such a nice male nanny as Philip.

Philip and I thought he could stay at my house when I came back late.

But at night, when Philip was leaving, Lester held Philip’s thigh and wouldn’t let him go. He said to me, “Mom, dad said we shouldn’t waste time.”

“Huh?”

“You’re wasting Philip’s and my time. If Philip is here, he can have a better rest," Lester said. “He can teach me. I have a lot of things I don’t understand and I want to ask him!”

Actually, I knew Lester didn’t have questions to ask Philip. He just wanted to play with Philip!

I didn’t want to expose him. After all, Philip was very responsible. He wouldn’ let Lester play all the time.

I looked at Philip and said, “go back today. Tomorrow you bring your clothes and live here.”

“I...”
