Daddy, I Want Mummy...
Chapter 21's

Rachel nodded and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Christopher said, and her heart was a little worried. He placed the gift on his knee and turned his gaze out the window.

Christopher glanced at his movements from the corner of his eyes and said, "Don't be afraid, you only met my parents and you've also seen the three of them and they like you a lot."

Rachel did not want to be too nervous, so she tried to find a topic of conversation. "How could Owen be like this? When I interacted with him, I felt that there was no problem with his intelligence and behavior. Why isn't he talking?"

Christopher's hand was clenched without a trace, and faint veins protruded on the back of his hand.

Rachel was surprised to see the reaction of Christopher who looked dark and upset.

Actually, Rachel wanted to inquire about the Morgan Family's secrets.

His gaze fell piercing into the eyes of Christopher Morgan. While wondering, Would he be able to quickly interact in the life of the Morgan Family?

Just as Rachel was thinking, Christopher said in his usual voice, "You'll know later."

Rachel looked at him in surprise and did not want to talk anymore.

Morgan's residence is located on Round Mountain, very far from urban.

The entire mansion covered a large area of land, but the settlement area was not very large. There are many green areas and public facilities that are the perfect living environment.

Christopher drove the car to the Mansion yard and stopped. Many flowers were planted in the courtyard, and at first glance it was dazzling. One would think that they are all grown naturally, but one would think again that their placement is very reasonable and well planned if it is looked at carefully.

Upon hearing the sound of a car entering the grounds, Mr and Mrs Morgan exited the house and stood at the door to meet them.

Christopher exits the car in the middle of the night, opening the car door for Rachel.

Rachel got out of the car and handed over the gift she had brought to Chrichel. She smiled and said, "Uncle and aunt, this is the gift my parents chose for the two of you. Accept it."

"Your parents are so good." Chrischel took the gift and opened it gracefully. It was Amelie's pickles and there were also some acidic foods, which looked much tastier than the food bought outside. "I will definitely ask your mother to teach me to make this meal."

"She was very interested in the kitchen and was eager to tell her about the food with aunt."

Chrischel took Rachel by the hand to enter the house. "Your day is long. Rest first, lunch later."

Rachel listened to the words of the Morgan family's mistress. Upon entering the main house, she was surprised to find that they did not have the elaborate decorations she had imagined before.

The one who sees it will feel that there is elegance in simplicity.

Pads, chairs, murals, tea furniture, everything seems ordinary, which inadvertently expresses the feeling of a complicated arrangement, which makes the person who sees it will not feel inferior because of its simple appearance.

Rachel thinks the rich have a lot of rules in their homes. But what he saw now was completely different from his expectations.

If they did not show off their wealth directly, then others would definitely disregard their status.

...----------------...

After a delicious lunch, Chrichel allows Christopher to bring Rachel to familiarize himself with the Morgan residence.

Rachel only thought that Christopher would take her for a walk around the dining room alone.Without being expected, it turns out that Christopher took her directly to his private room.

This room called the Christopher Morgan room is actually a small, stand-alone villa.

Christopher Morgan smiled. "You can see it from here. If you want to get to know me personally, this is the best way to go to my room."

Rachel was forced to try to accept the excess from the Morgan family. In fact, he didn't quite understand the Morgan family, who could always do anything at their behest. However, after being seen in terms of his life, much different, they were very simple unlike the rich in general.

They went to the living room together. Christopher looked at Rachel's curious face and didn't want to talk so as not to disturb her. He turned to the kitchen and brought her a glass of milk and some cookies.

Rachel stood for a long time in the living room and then she thought that just because Christopher and his family didn't treat her as a stranger, she didn't need to be so rigid. With that in mind, Rachel walked up to the wall with lots of photos.

There are about 100 photos on the wall, each of which is framed and almost all of Christopher's photos from he was small to mature as well as photos of himself and Owen.

Rachel stood in front of the photo wall while looking at him one by one. He was so surprised to find much admiration he saw from Christopher. The image of Christopher in his heart is not fixed but by no means irreversible, and he can hardly see the same appearance of Christopher in the photo.

He felt that Christopher was just being cold towards others, but his attention to him and Owen was very real. He thought Christopher was a good single father. He could see from his careful attention to Owen, even more modest than his father in general and he did not see Owen in distress at all except getting the attention of Christopher.

Children are more sensitive than adults. If Christopher hurts Owen, he won't stick to him.

Rachel thinks that Christopher is a very contradictory person.

"Are the pictures so beautiful?" Christopher's voice suddenly appeared.

"You surprised me." Rachel replied, she turned her head and looked at the glass of milk and snacks in Christopher's hand and she smiled. "Thank you."

Christopher placed the milk and snacks on the side of the small table, and looked back at the same photo Rachel had seen and said, "I used to love to laugh endlessly."

Rachel did not expect that Christopher would speak. So the mouthful of milk he had just drank almost gushed out.

Christopher looked at her who was coughing for a long time until Christopher was comforted by Rachel's behavior. He said, "I won't explain how our days will pass over and over again. Now we are husband and wife until death do us part. You don't have to force yourself to adapt to my life so quickly, just follow your first steps. And for our wedding, let my parents handle it. If there's something you want to add to your marriage later, you can say it in person."

Rachel looked at him in wonder. He didn't expect Christopher to say such a thing.

Christopher raised his eyebrows.

Rachel suddenly said, "What did you say just now flattered me a little, thank you.Where is Owen? Isn't he here too?"

"She has not dared to look at me lately" said Christopher.

Rachel fell silent.

Christopher, who saw Rachel drinking milk from him, said, "Go to the backyard and see what's there. There's a lot of fields planted by my parents."

"They're still farming?" Rachel surprised.

"Yes, they say, farming is one of their hobbies." Answer Christopher and go first to the backyard.

Rachel followed him.
