Bride For Rent novel Chapter 13

Felicity's eyes narrowed and she looked down immediately, seeing her reaction, Hana guessed what could have happened and looked at Raymond who confirmed her thoughts "oh my darling. I am so sorry about that, I didn't know" Hana apologized immediately.

"It's okay. You wouldn't have known if I didn't tell you. They died when I was six years old and Aunty Katy raised me all alone that's why I will do anything to make her happy."

"Aw, so sorry dear. I will like to meet this your Aunty Katy" Hana said.

Felicity nodded "okay, I will tell her."

"Sure do okay?" Hana smiled.

"Which school did you attend Felicity?" Desmond asked.

"I didn't go to school" she answered and Desmond and Hana looked at each other shocked "Aunty Katy hired a tutor to teach me at home" Felicity continued "although she didn't tell me but I heard from other people that I'm sick and can't go to school like every other kids."

"You are sick? What type of sickness my dear?" Hana asked.

Felicity shook her head slowly "I don't know, Aunty Katy never told me."

"I see" Hana looked at Raymond, asking with her eyes if he knew and he nodded "I'm so sorry dear."

"How old you are Felicity?" Desmond asked, he feels like there is something off about this girl.

"Aunty Katy says I'm twenty four" she answered honestly.

Desmond and Hana looked at each other again "your Aunty told you? You don't know yourself?" He asked further.

"Aunty Katy tells me a lot of things about myself and because she tells me, I don't bother to know anymore."

"Is that so" Desmond looked at his grandson and Raymond gulped, he never knew his grandparents will ask too many questions, if he had, he would have prepared her beforehand.

"Honey, what will you like to drink?" Hana asked.

Felicity's eyes brightened immediately "can I have ice cream?"

"Ice cream?" Hana was surprised as well as Desmond and together, they looked at Raymond who tried to avoid their gazes.

"Yes, ice cream" Felicity nodded vigorously.

"Okay, I will have them prepare one for you now but in the meantime, what will you like to take while you wait for your ice cream?" Hana asked with a smile.

"Cake" Felicity replied happily.

If Hana was surprised with ice cream, then she is shocked with cake "oh, I will get them prepare both then."

Felicity clapped joyously "thank you. Aunty Katy said I should always thank anyone who gives me something."

"Really?" Hana asked with a forced smile and Felicity nodded "Em, Felicity would you be here for a moment while with talk to Raymond, I can ask them to get you lemonade while you wait for your cake and ice cream."

"Okay" she nodded.

"Good girl" Hana looked at Raymond and signaled him with her eyes before getting up. Raymond stood up too as well as Desmond and they all moved to the next room after Hana told the cook to prepare cake and ice cream and also told of the servant girls to take a glass of lemonade to Felicity.

Felicity shook her head "I want ice cream."

Hana looked at Raymond "little Ray, why don't you go get her one in one of those bakeries?"

"What will happen to the one Missy is preparing?" Desmond asked.

"She will just take it home" Hana replied "hurry little Ray."

Raymond frowned, when has he become an errand boy for Felicity? He fetched out his phone from his pocket and dialled a number "go get an ice cream" he ordered when the call connected.

"Why do you call him little Ray? I thought his name is Raymond" Felicity asked and Raymond frowned, glaring at his grandfather who laughed.

"Raymond is his name my darling but we call him little Ray, it's his nickname and he loved it when he was a boy" Hana answered gently.

"Really?" Felicity's eyes glistened and she looked at Raymond "can I call you little Ray too?"

Desmond and Hana laughed out loud while Raymond's face darkened "no" he replied.

"Why not?" Felicity asked dejectedly "it sounds so sweet in the mouth. I will love to call you little Ray."

"No you will not" Raymond refused.

"Don't talk to her like that. She will call you what she wants, after all she is your wife" Desmond shunned him before looking at Felicity lovingly "call him anything you want my dear, he is your husband."
