Bethan’s smile turned into a sneer.
After a while, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Alice in the red dress. Her tone turned cold too. “
You’re coming along too?”
“Yes.”
Alice smiled brightly at Bethan. “Brettley and I also want to accompany Neil and Nellie today.”
Then, she pretended to be motherly. “For the past half a month, I have been working in the design department every day. I don’t even have the time to spend time with my kids. Now that they are leaving, I don’t want to give up the last chance I have to spend time with them.”
“I’m their mother and you’re their adoptive moth. Our feelings for the children are the same, right?”
As if!
Bethan clenched her fists tightly. She could not help but immediately see through Alice’s pretense. “Mrs. Morrison, your acting skills are getting better.”
“Likewise.”
Alice walked over and said in her eyes. “As long as you’re unhappy, I’ll be happy. You want to spend a day happily playing? Dream on.”
Bethan released her clenched fist. She sneered and looked at Alice, “Mrs. Morrison, are you sure that you won’t be the unhappy one today, coming along?”
“How could it be me?”
Alice smiled smugly. “Bethan, don’t you forget, I ‘m Brettley’s wife and mother of the children. My husband and I are taking our children out to play today. Who the hell are you? You’re just tagging along!”
“Is it?”
Bethan swept Alice a condescending glance. “We shall see.”
Then, Bethan ignored Alice and immediately got into the car.
Alice’s expressions turned ugly for a moment at Bethan’s calm look. However, she recovered quickly. She chuckled gently and went in the car too.
The atmosphere in the car was so quiet it made one’s heart palpitate.
Brettley was sitting on the couch with his documents in his hands. He was reading while taking notes.
Neil and Nellie sat unhappily opposite Brettley. Neil was fidgeting a Rubik’s cube in annoyance.
Nellie on the other hand was sketching angrily on her little sketch board.
Bethan and Alice got in the car. One sat next to Brettley, while the other sat in between Neil and Nellie.
The car started moving.
Bethan lifted her hands and ruffled Neil’s hair to comfort him a little. Then, she lowered her head to see what Nellie was drawing.
She was drawing a red dinosaur. The pattern and the accessories of the dinosaur were exactly the same as Alice’s clothes.
Bethan laughed out loud. She whispered something in Nellie’s ears. Nellie finally felt a little better.
Although Alice and Brettley were quite a hindrance, Bethan did not plan to pay much attention to them.
This was the last time she could see Neil and Nellie before they left for summer camp. She did not want the children to have unhappy memories.
Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the amusement park.
This was an amusement park that has not been open to the public.
To welcome the important guests today, the staff of the amusement park was on their toes.
They got down from the car.
“The weather is great.”
Alice got down from the car in a good mood. She hugged Brettley’s arm. “Brettley, it has been a long time since we’ve been out like this, right?”
Brettley flatly responded. He turned and glanced at Bethan and the two kids next to her. “Go on in.”
“They are in the way, how annoying! “
Walking next to Bethan, Nellie could not help but grumble.
“Nellie,”
Bethan furrowed her brows and said, “Didn’t you just promise me that you won’t be bothered by them? Just treat them as if they don’t exist.”
Nellie pouted. “How could I treat them as if they don’t exist? They are two huge adults! “
Neil had one hand in his pocket. He thought deeply. “
Let me think of a way.”
Once they entered the amusement park, the entire staff of the amusement park welcomed them passionately.
Neil let go of Bethan’s hand. He ran forward and grabbed onto Alice’s sleeve.
“Ms. Alice, I want ice cream! “
Alice furrowed her brows. She inconspicuously tried to shrug Neil off her sleeve, but Neil grabbed it tightly. She could not shrug him off.
Alice furrowed her brows. “If you want ice cream, go get it!”
Neil blinked his eyes and looked at Alice. “But, when Bethan Mommy took us to the amusement park last time, she always brought me to buy ice cream. She paid for us. I want you to take me.”
Alice pursed her lips. She wanted to say something when Brettley let go of her hand. “Go with him. It’s rare that Neil wants to get close to you.”
Alice furrowed her brows and turned around reluctantly, taking Neil to the ice cream stall.
Neil bought five ice cream cones, he was eating one in his hand.
The vendor swept a glance at Neil, then naturally passed the other four ice cream cones to Alice.
Having to hold two rather huge ice cream cones in one hand, Alice’s expressions darkened gloomily.
“Ms. Alice, hold it properly! “
Neil smiled at her. “
The four ice cream cones. One is for Nellie, one is for Brettley, and two for Bethan Mommy! “
The veins on Alice’s forehead popped. “What about me?”
Neil blinked his eyes and looked at Alice innocently. “
You never said that you wanted ice cream.”
Alice was speechless. Neil did it on purpose!
They obviously had five of them in the group. Neil bought five ice creams, yet he gave Bethan two!
Just when she was forcefully suppressing the rage in her heart, a wind blew by. Neil’s hand swayed. The ice cream, which he only took two bites of, fell onto Alice’s red dress ‘by accident’.
The white and pastel-colored ice cream instantly stained her dress.
Alice screamed and threw the four ice cream cones in her hand. She pulled her dress over.
She carefully selected this expensive red dress, because she was planning to make things difficult for Bethan that day!
Her dress cost at least six figures! It was ruined by a ten-dollar ice cream cone!
She glared at Neil angrily. Before she could flare up, Neil sat on the floor and kicked his legs. He cried, “M y ice cream! Why did you throw away my ice cream! Woo, woo… I only bought five ice creams. I just took two bites and it’s all ruined! You’re such a huge adult, how could you not protect my ice cream! “
Because the amusement park was not yet fully opened, they were the only patrons, so Neil’s cries were extremely jarring in a quiet environment.
Once he cried, almost everyone looked in his direction.
Alice’s dress has been stained. She was at first annoyed at Neil’s crying, but the people there looked at her strangely…
Alice glared at Neil angrily. “Shut up! Stop crying! It’s just ice cream! You destroyed my dress! “
