Chapter 1145 More Care, More Trouble (2/2)

But his unspoken criticism against his father's childish temper tantrums was burgeoning from a place deep in his heart.

'It's no use to wear that face since you are already here, ' Louis thought.

He had come to know his sister well, and he knew she was deeply in love with Jacob. But Louis had expressed his concerns with his fists by beating up Jacob when they had last met outs

left him feeling disturbed.

”Father, why are you angry again?”

Suddenly, a soft voice floated down to them from the upstairs landing, soothing Hunk's ruffled feathers in an instant.

Quickly, he turned back and smiled, the wrinkles on his face blossomed like a spring rose in bloom.

With a fatherly love, he waved a hand to Emily and said, ”Yvonne, come here.”

The stark contrast from moments earlier made Jacob and Louis exchange astonished glances. Spontaneously, their mouths pouted as they lamented their respectively miserable conditions.

Emily hadn't meant to come out of the room so late.

She had quickly been cleaning up the messy room and dressing herself up. She had heard Hunk's belligerent yelling from the floor below, and his formidable voice had made her feel quite relieved that she now had a father who doted on her.

With a sweet smile, she supported her swollen belly with one hand and walked downstairs with great care. While she was still approaching Hunk, she reached out her hands and then pinched Hunk's cheeks as she pretended to say with anger, ”I heard you abusing someone just now. Is that correct? Your doctor has advised you not to get so angry. He did warn you to consider your health, didn't he?”

Hunk put his hands on her shoulders and gazed lovingly at every part of Emily's face until he was finally sure that she seemed okay. Satisfied, he gave a happy nod and took a negligent glance at Jacob, who was standing by with a broad smile on his face. Finally, an amiable smile settled back on Hunk's aged face.
