Chapter 931 Davids Visit (2/2)

When Jacob and David arrived, Emily and Rita were busy cooking in the kitchen. Rita walked in and out of the kitchen as she helped Emily with the cooking. Her body was clumsy but still swift. Seeing that she had recovered very well, David felt relieved. It seemed that it had been the perf

hat Rita had a balanced and healthy diet. He figured that Jacob and Emily wouldn't mind his behavior.

But did Rita really care about what Jacob and Emily thought of him? Or did she dislike him even more for putting her in an awkward situation?

”Okay. I won't do it anymore,” David apologized quickly.

Rita made no response but she began to eat the food David had gotten for her. Judging by that, it seemed as though she was willing to accept his apology.

Apart from the short conversation, Rita didn't talk to David the entire time. Rita was behaving as if nothing had happened, but David could clearly feel her indifference toward him, which made him nervous.

He assumed that this was the calm before the storm. He was nervous that a storm was coming and knew that he should prepare for it.

In order to leave more room for Rita and David, Emily and Jacob asked to be excused and took the two children outside after the meal. There was only Rita and David left in the empty room.

Having realized that David had no intention of leaving, Rita stood up first and was ready to walk away. But after a few steps, she suddenly stopped and turned back to face David, and said, ”I want to have a word with you in private. Let's go to a quiet place.”

There were many maids in the mansion who were walking back and forth cleaning the dining table and bringing the dishes back to the kitchen. As the saying went, ”Domestic shame should not be published.” House-maids were usually the source of most gossip. To avoid that, Rita decided to go to her room and speak with David there.

David was surprised that Rita was finally willing to talk with him and stood up immediately to catch up with her.

Rita closed the door of her room after David entered and stopped at the bedside. ”I guess you have some words for me. Speak them now and then you can leave,” Rita said expressionlessly.

As the due date was drawing closer, Rita felt tired easily and spent more and more time sleeping.

David noticed her weariness and walked over to help her sit down, but she stopped him in his tracks. Rita's eyes were full of disgust and she didn't want to be touched by David. Her brusque refusal felt like a knife cutting into David's heart.
