Chapter 23 Am I So Ugly? In the Rowan family’s villa.
Alora was in a good mood as she hummed and cooked in the kitchen.
James moved a small stool over and sat in the middle of the kitchen. He rested his chin on his hands
and tilted his head to look at Alora. “Mommy.”
The woman’s hand that was cutting vegetables paused and she turned to look at him. “What’s wrong?”
“It would be great if you were my biological mother.”
“I think your eyes are very similar to ours. Are you our biological mother?” The little fellow looked into
her eyes seriously. Alora smiled helplessly and turned to continue cutting vegetables. “But Mommy has
never given birth…”
She paused halfway.
Five years ago, she gave birth to a stillborn.
Was that considered having a child?
Thinking of this, her heart ached slightly and she immediately changed the topic. “Have you ever seen
your mother?”
“No.”
James shook his head. “I heard that Mommy died when she gave birth to us.”
“But I always feel that she is not dead. She must still be in some corner of the world, waiting for us to
find her!”
Hearing the child’s childish voice, Alora sighed lightly. She cut off a small piece of ham and stuffed it
into James’ mouth. Then she squatted down and hugged him. “If you believe that your Mommy is not
dead, she must be alive.”
“Quickly grow up and find her!”
Feeling the woman’s warm embrace, James ate the ham in his mouth and quietly lowered his eyes.
It would be great if she was his biological mother.
In the study upstairs. Steve sat on his desk with his hands crossed over his chest, confronting the
enlarged version of himself. “You let that woman go just like that?”
She almost made Mommy lose her life yesterday.
As his mother’s husband, how could his father let that bad woman go? “Of course not.” Samir looked
up at him indifferently. Elena’s career was still developing. In the future, Samir would have plenty of
opportunities to deal with her.
But today’s matter could only end here.
Once the matter became big, the information that was released now would definitely not be able to
satisfy everyone’s curiosity.
If the identities of James and Steve were exposed, these two children would no longer be able to live a
peaceful life in the future.
Even if he had extraordinary abilities, he was unwilling to let the children take this risk.
He had promised that woman that he would protect these two children well.
“What does that mean?”
Seeing that he did not speak, Steve bit his lips, his voice filled with anger. He had always been
sensible, unlike James who would cry and laugh whenever he wanted to. This was the first time he had
seen him so angry.
“You care so much about Alora?” Samir looked at him, the corners of his lips slightly raised.
“She’s your wife, my mommy,” said Steve, blushing.
“Just because of this?” the man asked, staring at him sharply. “Of course.”
“Since you don’t want to, I’ll deal with that woman.”
After that, he strode out the door with his short legs.
“Wait.”
Behind him, the man sitting in the office chair frowned slightly and pointed to a box on the table. “Give
this to her. Tell her it’s from you.”
Steve picked up the small box and looked at it. “Skincare product?”
The little guy raised his sharp big eyes and looked at Samir.
He knew his father very well. He had always been cold and cheerless. Why was he suddenly so nice?
Steve’s gaze made Samir feel a little uncomfortable.
“I asked your cousin to help her today, but…” he coughed awkwardly.
“Oh, that idiot.”
“I’ll forgive you for now,” Steve said with a faint sigh as he carried the stuff out.
Samir looked at his son’s back and smiled helplessly
“Uncle!”
Just as Steve left, Samir’s phone rang. It was Alexander. “Aunt should be home now, right?”
“Did she tell you that today’s work was much easier?”
“Is she very happy?”
“Yes, she is very happy.” The man narrowed his eyes dangerously.
“Hahahaha, you can be rest assured when I handle the business!”
“I am very professional, aren’t I?” novelbin
“Well, your pocket money will disappear in the future.”
“…” Alexander.
After a while, the man on the other side of the line said painfully, “Uncle, don’t worry. I will definitely find
a safer way to take care of Aunt tomorrow!” “Yes.”
“I will also think more carefully about your fate.” Samir’s voice was still faint. Through the phone,
Alexander broke out in a cold sweat.
After dinner, Alora happily held the product that Steve had given her and returned to her room. This
product was a big brand. She had only heard of it, but she had never bought it.
· She had just complained a little about how she had been exposed to the sun for the whole day, and
Steve had unexpectedly given her such a luxurious gift!
The woman sat in front of the dressing table, holding the product and taking a few photos. She carefully
opened it and applied it on her face a little bit. Then, she proudly sent a voice message to Anne, “My
son gave it to me. It feels so good!”
Samir leaned against the door and looked at her triumphant look. The corners of his lips could not help
but rise.
Just this little gift was enough for her to be so happy? Showing off to her friends while taking pictures?
“Hey, I also want to be like you, having two considerate and handsome sons!” “However, I am more
curious about your child’s father,” Anne said on the other side of the line. “Isn’t it said that your Mr.
Rowan is ugly and weird? How can a person like him have such good children?” Alora pursed her lips,
“My husband is not ugly…”
The word husband made the corners of Samir’s lips involuntarily rise again.
For some reason, when this woman called out the word “husband”, her voice was particularly pleasant
to hear, so pleasant that he would recall her attractive appearance in the bathtub that day. “Then when
are you going to take a picture of your husband for me to see?” “No, many people didn’t know what he
looked like before. It must be because he is particularly low-key. I don’t think I can share his photos.”
“Then don’t quibble. Your husband is ugly.” “Shut up! Your husband is the ugly one. Your husband’s
entire family is ugly!”
“Sir!” The butler came upstairs to deliver milk to the young master. Just as he went upstairs, he saw
Samir leaning against the door, so he hurriedly greeted him. The voice at the door made Alora, who
was arguing with Anne, suddenly stop.
She quickly turned around. She saw that in the direction of the door, the cold and noble man was
leaning against the door. He seemed to have been standing there for a long time.
“Alora, your husband must be particularly ugly. He is so ugly that you dare not bring him to see me!” On
the other side of the line, Anne’s half-joking voice came. She was shocked and quickly turned her head
to turn off the phone. “…. I am joking with my friend.” “Joking about me?” The man entered the door
simperingly. He closed the door and his tall body slowly approached her. His aura was too strong. Alora
was pressed by him step by step. In the end, her legs bent and she hit the edge of the bed. She fell
directly on the bed. The man raised his hand and wrapped her in the middle of the bed. His slender
arm directly grabbed her phone and video-called Anne. Soon, Anne’s shocked face appeared on the
phone. Samir turned off the microphone and leaned down to look at the woman on the bed. “Alora.”
“Tell her if I really am ugly.” His warm breath sprayed on the tip of her nose.
