Phillip would never tell Ann that he knew that she didn't want to make their relationship public because she was lack of sense of security.

It was the first time for Phillip to fall in love, so he specially bought a book called "Love Strategy", which was recommended by the netizens.

The book said that girls valued anniversaries a lot, so Phillip spent several million on a license plate, whose number was meaningless for its original owner. When Todd knew this, he had a good laugh at Phillip.

"She is just your girlfriend now. If you get married in the future, you will be a hen-pecked husband. How awkward!"

Phillip didn't think so. He thought that he was supposed to cosset his woman.

While Phillip was thinking, he saw tears falling down when Ann was smiling.

He frowned and was at a loss. He quickly wiped her tears with his long fingers instead of a handkerchief.

"Why are you crying?"

Ann didn't know why she cried. While others weren't in favor of their relationship, she could feel that Phillip cared a lot about her.

Actually, Ann was very happy, but she just couldn't stop crying.

"I am so touched."

Phillip heaved a sigh of relief and tapped his finger on Ann's forehead.

"You like crying very much. You will cry when you are bullied or when you are happy and even when you are moved. Why are you still like a child after so many years?" He said in a cosseted way.

Ann sniffed, raised her hand, and held Phillip's hand, with her eyes full of tears.

"I always cry. Will you dislike me in the future?"

Phillip raised his eyebrows slightly. Ann looked like a little animal that was afraid of being abandoned. She looked so pathetic that Phillip wanted to make a joke. "What will you do if I don't like you?"

Ann held Phillip's hand tighter. She thought of Melinda's word and felt heartbroken that maybe they would separate one day.

She lowered her head and said with her tears falling down quickly, "If you don't want to be with me, I probably won't like anyone else."

She sobbed in a low voice.

Phillip realized that there was something wrong with Ann. She seemed to be particularly sentimental tonight.

Phillip unbuckled his seatbelt and pulled Ann into his arms. He pressed her face against his chest and kissed her head.

"You are an idiot. I won't abandon you. You can feel free to cry in front of me at any time."

Ann leaned against Phillip and heard his strong heartbeat and gentle words, with her arms wrapping around his waist. She didn't want to leave Phillip.

At the Jobson's, Rudy was talking to Betty.

Rudy had been to various famous places. Although she was not very clever, she was good at comforting others.

And Betty had Karl's child, so she got into a good mood.

The door was slammed open.

Betty and Rudy got startled.

They turned and were surprised to see Karl.

Betty felt happy at first. But she saw that Rudy was looking at Karl sadly, so she pretended to be unhappy.

"You know you have a home now."

Karl didn't go back home since they didn't end up well at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Karl left Rudy alone at home. He should at least go home and take care of Rudy and make sure that Rudy gives birth safely.

Karl looked at Rudy, who was looking at him pathetically.

Karl held back his frustration and anger and became gentle.

He turned to Betty and said with a smile, "Mom, it's my fault. I want to talk to Rudy alone."

Betty was worried because Karl looked dispirited these days.

Seeing that Karl seemed to become as gentle as before, Betty was a little surprised but heaved a sigh of relief.

She smiled, held Karl's hand, and patted. "OK. Rudy is your wife. It's understandable that you wanted to have a private conversation with her."

Rudy sat on the sofa and was surprised at Karl's change.

Betty glanced at Rudy and whispered to Karl.

"Rudy is still pregnant. She must be angry with you these days. Don't forget to say some nice words and amuse her."

Karl nodded.

Betty relaxed, turned around, and looked at Rudy with a smile.

"You can open up today. I will go downstairs to take a walk. Your aunt, Kim, told me yesterday that she brought two chickens from the countryside. I will go and buy one to make soup for you." Betty left some private space for them. But Rudy felt anxious because Karl was weird today.☐☐☐
