Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce novel Chapter 1099

Next to him was Lucas, who also had a disdainful look on his face.

What's wrong with them in the middle of the night?

Alivia was confused by the scene in front of her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Before Bert could speak, Lucas couldn't wait to complain, " Ms. Graves, Mr. Harper insisted on taking a shower first, but I want to take a shower first. I'm sleepy and want to sleep!"

Alivia's eyelid twitched. Though she maintained a polite smile on her face, her mind was in chaos. So, they were arguing over who gets to bathe first?

Why make such a fuss about it?

Though she couldn't understand the intricacies between the adult and the child, she patiently tried to reason with the man in his thirties, "You're an adult. Why are you acting like a child? Let Lucas go first if he wants to."

Hearing Alivia's words, Lucas felt emboldened. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking fearless.

Bert's face grew darker, "I have some personal distastes."

"What?" Alivia thought she misheard, "You have..."

"I don't like seeing fallen hair. It makes me uncomfortable."

It was the first time Alivia had heard such a reason, and for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.

Her eyes wandered around and suddenly fell on the bathroom in her room. An idea struck her, "I haven't taken a bath yet. Why don't you use my bathroom, and I'll go with Lucas to your room. Is that okay?"

"You're so nice to me, Ms. Graves," Lucas looked at her, his big eyes full of innocence.

Alivia smiled gently and helped him dry the water droplets that fell on his body, "You are so cute that I am so fond of you. Everyone likes you."

"Then, Ms. Graves, do you like Mr. Harper?" Lucas suddenly asked, but it was not the first time he had asked this question. He seemed to be very persistent about this question.

Alivia looked into his bright black eyes and sensed the earnestness in his gaze. She decided not to give vague answers this time; she shouldn't always beat around the bush with the child.

So, she thought seriously about the question and gave an uncertain but cautious answer, "I... should like him, I guess."

Honestly, even she herself was somewhat unsure of her feelings toward Bert. Let alone explain it clearly to Lucas.
