Chapter 30 I'm a Little Animal Too
Susan waited until Edward signed it before taking the resignation letter back home. She just smiled at him, turned around, and left.
Instead, Edward couldn't help frowning as he looked at Susan's back figure... She saw him with other woman, as if it was nothing? Disappointing.
When Vanessa walked towards Edward again, Edward already put the files on the desk in order and stood up calmly.
Vanessa looked at Edward, she didn't say anything else. When Edward had finished cleaning up and looked like he was going to leave, Vanessa couldn't help inviting him.
In the end, before she could say that, Edward already said, "I'll go back to my villa tonight, I need to take care of follow-ups." he needed to discuss with Susan, where she'd go after resigning.
"Okay." Vanessa was totally unwilling, but she still bit her lips and said okay... After that, Vanessa stood up and hugged Edward. "Edward, do you know? I've been waiting for your divorce." she had always considered him as hers, but she... Became unsure. She needed him to promise her with his words to feel secure.
"Yeah." Edward answered indifferently. Vanessa said, "Don't let me wait for too long." after a long time, Edward turned around and glanced Vanessa, he didn't know when she had cried... Edward didn't answer, he just took some tissues and wiped Vanessa's tears.
Susan didn't return to her own office after getting out of Edward's office, she took her resignation letter and walked away quickly.
Since she had seen both Vanessa and Edward in the office, then... They would probably spend the night together.
Thus, Susan decided to go home and see Ruby. Susan quickly took the taxi to Tina's house.
Ruby was very happy when she saw Susan, she immediately hugged and kissed Susan.
Then, Ruby said, "Mommy, I just rehearsed the dance for children's day, I can dance for you."
"Okay." Susan was happy, she hurriedly sat on the sofa and moved the tea table, giving Ruby enough space.
Ruby just wore a small white dress, unlike the special dress for the little swan, but she was so concentrated that Susan felt that Ruby was just like a white swan during the climax.
After Ruby finished dancing, Susan clapped because she was very moved... Then, Ruby went into Susan's embrace.
Ruby was a little shy, "Mommy, I'm the lead dancer for this, do you think that I danced well?"
"Very good, Ruby is really talented in dancing."
"Mommy... Do you think my dance is similar to white swan?"
"Similar. It's very similar to little swan." Susan pinched Ruby's face as she praised Ruby happily.
In the end, Ruby turned around happily before going back into Susan's embrace.
Ruby said, "Mommy, then can you bring me to father's jungle to see father? I'm so similar to white swan, father will protect me! I'm also a little animal!"
Hearing that, Susan was dumbfounded!
What kind of logic was that...
She looked at Ruby who was serious, "Little swan doesn't live in the jungle." Susan couldn't think of anything else to reject Ruby.
But that sentence made Ruby pout and cry, "Nanny, Mom said little swan is not a little animal! I can't meet father! Father doesn't protect little swan in the jungle." Nanny immediately coaxed Ruby, while Susan beside them was at a loss. She looked at Nanny and Ruby in hesitation, "All right, all right, stop crying... What about this, I'll take so many beautiful photos of your performance and send it to your father, okay?"
"Father can see your beautiful photos and after father tells me what he wants to say to you, I'll tell you."
"Seriously?" Ruby suddenly stopped crying, she blinked her pure big eyes as she looked at Susan.
Susan nodded, "Yeah, seriously."
"Pinky swear... Don't lie to me."
"Okay!" Susan did the pinky swear with Ruby, then she carried Ruby and brought Ruby to sleep. Maybe because Ruby was tired because she just cried before that, she immediately fell asleep.
After confirming that Ruby was in a deep sleep, Susan carefully closed the door.
When Susan walked out and realized that nanny was still there, it was like she was waiting for her. "What's wrong? Do you have something else to do? I can take care of Ruby tonight." Sophia was quite at a loss as she looked at Susan, but after hesitating for a while she still said, "Ms. White, I've been taking care of Ruby for a long time now, I consider her as my own granddaughter." Susan nodded, that was a fact. "You... I know I shouldn't ask but... I still want to say that Ruby should have a father. She seemed to be longing for a father."
"Ruby failed to dance that dance for so many times in the kindergarten today, Ruby's talent for sports is so-so, then the teacher won't let Ruby participate in the dance rehearsal, but Ruby keep dancing to it every day after going home from the kindergarten, she could dance it and become the lead dance today after falling for so many times. Ruby said, she danced it because her father was the king of the jungle, she wants to dance it for her father in the jungle.."
"I've said it all, I'm leaving first." after saying that, Nanny seemed like she didn't need Susan's answer as she took her bag and quickly left the house.
However... Right when Sophia closed the door, Susan bit her lips and cried.
Ruby had prepared all that, what Susan just said her must be so hurtful.
But, where could she find a father for Ruby? She was stressed, she always felt like she owed Ruby.
She had always been owing Ruby, even if she had done a lot for Ruby's growth, but because she needed to act like a good wife by Edward's side those few years, she had to hide Ruby and neglected Ruby's growth.
Susan didn't sleep all night... On the second day, she made a decision after cooking breakfast and sent Ruby to the kindergarten.
She decided that... She should divorce sooner!
