Chapter 136 Call Me Brother-in-Law Next Time

Joseph's words made Harry speechless. He felt Joseph's way of thinking was quite similar to Lola sometimes.

"Don't worry. I have no interest in you. Call me brother-in-law next time!" He interrupted Joseph's imagination with a cool tone.

Harry's words pulled Joseph back to the reality. He nodded. "No problem! Anything else?"

"Who will you stand by, me or Thomas Herren?" Harry asked while taking a cigarette out of packet and picking up his lighter. But he thought of Nicole in the lounge when he was about to ignite the cigarette. So he put the lighter down and fiddled with the cigarette in hand.

"Brother-in-law, I idolize you so much. I am on your side, of course!" Joseph bent over Harry's executive desk excitedly and looked deep into Harry's eyes. "What Harry offered was so tempting! Sorry, my sister!" Joseph thought.

Hearing Joseph's words, Harry nodded with satisfaction. Suddenly, the door of the lounge was opened from inside. Nicole came out, half awake.

"Nicole, my sweetheart, you wake up." Joseph said. When he was about to go up, Harry had already squatted down beside Nicole.

Harry scooped Nicole up. He looked just like a loving father who held his daughter up. "Uncle Harry. My uncle is here. Is he taking me home? I will miss you!" Nicole hooked around Harry's neck and said. She didn't want to leave!

Harry displayed a slight smile. "Ask your uncle to bring you here next time. I will always wait for you here!"

Hearing that, Nicole became awake. She tightened her grip on his neck and said excitedly, "Really? I can come here and play with you again?"

Joseph was totally dumbfounded to see that. He couldn't believe the poker-faced CEO could behave in such a fatherly way. Alas! Harry always wore a smile when he was with Nicole. Maybe that was the power of bond between father and daughter.

Actually, Harry was a little bit pathetic. Cause he was holding his own daughter while he knew nothing about that. Joseph couldn't image what would happen after Harry knew the truth... If that day came, God please bless my sister!

"Certainly! I never lie!" Harry replied while holding Nicole with one hand and smoothing her fringe with the other hand.

"Great! Uncle Harry, you are the best!" Love you!" Nicole cheered and kissed Harry's cheek. Then she walked to her astonished uncle after Harry put her down.

"Uncle, you look so foolish! Ha...ha..." Nicole laughed at Joseph. Joseph held back his astonishment and grumbled with a glare, "Can't you say something sweet to your dear uncle. I have been taking care of you all the time!"

Harry arched his eyebrow on hearing "dear uncle".

"Then don't act foolishly! Ha...ha..!" Nicole kept laughing at Joseph. Then she took over the toy Harry passed and waved farewell to him.

Harry then walked Nicole and Joseph to the elevator. To be accurate, he was sending Nicole off.

When Harry went back, he saw Joey standing still and looking at him like a fool. He resumed his cold look at once and asked, "Joey, no work now?"

Totally distracted, Joey nodded. When he managed to realize what Harry asked, he saw the livid Harry, who was going to increase his workload.

"No, boss. I have a lot of things to do. I had misheard you!" Joey rushed to his desk and bent over his work right away.

Seeing that, Harry went back to his office without saying anything further. He was in a good mood that day so he decided to be nice to Joey.

Joey told himself to be calmer and careful in the future. Because his boss would be unpredictable when he was dealing with everything related to Miss Li.

Later, Harry assigned him a task about Joseph. That task improved Joey's understanding of how deep his love towards Lola. Yes! Love!

Lola got off work earlier than usual that day. Landon, Joseph and Nicole was about to eat dinner when she came back home.

They were all surprised to see Lola came back home so early. "Lola, dinner will be ready soon!" Landon said while taking one more pair of chopsticks out for Lola.

"Okay, grandpa." Lola kissed Nicole and went to wash her hands.

After dinner, when Lola was bathing Nicole, Nicole said excitedly, "Mommy, I am so happy today!"

Lola threw her eye on Nicole who seemed to be in a good mood and asked, "Really? Why? Share with mommy."

Nicole revealed a mysterious smile. She hooked around Lola's neck with both her arms and said, "I met an uncle today. I was so happy being with him!"

Lola guessed Nicole just encountered someone and had a good time with that stranger. "Really? Do you become good friends?" Lola lathered body wash on Nicole tenderly.

"Yes, of course. Mommy can join us next time!" Playing with her toys, Nicole thought of Harry and grinned.

Lola smiled and washed the body wash off.

"Mommy, can I sleep with you tonight?" Nicole looked at Lola expectantly.

"Yes, of course. My sweetheart!" After giving Nicole a kiss, Lola held her up and walked out of the bathroom. Nicole giggled all the way.

Lola felt happy and easy every time she was staying with Nicole.

On the bed, she embraced Nicole and took a selfie. She was quite satisfied with that photo. So she posted it on Wechat moment.

After Nicole fell asleep, Lola took out her phone. Many people liked and commented on the photo she just shared.

A colleague asked, "So cute! Miss Li, is this your daughter?"

Lola considered for a while and replied, "Yes, it's my daughter :D."

Within minutes, numerous comments from her colleagues flooded her Wechat moment, showing their surprise and disbelief.

Her resume showed she was unmarried and she had never brought Nicole to the company before. So all colleagues thought she was single.

What's more, she had been busy working in the past three years and none had ever seen her dating with any man. No wonder everyone was astonished to know she had a daughter.

Everyone thought she was dating Joshua since what happened in the Fontainebleau Resort. Maybe that post could shift people's attention away from that rumor.

When she was buried in thought, her phone rang. Afraid that Nicole might be awaken by the ring, she answered the phone immediately before checking the caller ID. It was from "Ex-husband".

"Hello, Boss Si." She said politely while walking to the balcony.

After half a minute's silence, Lola finally heard Harry's voice. "Whose daughter is Nicole?" Although Harry was trying to make himself sound emotionless, Lola could sense he sulked.

Lola frowned at his words. She turned back and cast a glance at Nicole, who was sound sleep, and asked, "How do you know her name?" Lola didn't know they met before.

Harry said slowly, "That doesn't matter. Tell me whose daughter Nicole is." In the daytime, he just planned to make up for the pain he caused. But in the evening, he learned that she had a daughter.

Who was Nicole's father?

Lola took a deep breath while looking into the darkness faraway. "Boss Si. I think you know perfectly well that Nicole is my daughter."
