The CEO’s Billion Dollar Bride
Chapter 1074 - 1054: Uncle, are you eyeing a beauty to snatch as an aunt?

Chapter 1074: Chapter 1054: Uncle, are you eyeing a beauty to snatch as an aunt?

Dead? Or divorced?

Rio Gordon actually developed a kind of delusion that happiness had fallen from the sky.

In his entire life, he had never seen such a despicable and shameless version of himself, to actually harbor such thoughts in the depths of his heart.

"Sister, you are really pretty. I’ve never seen a sister as beautiful as you. When you grow up, you’ll be a great beauty just like my little mommy!"

Phoebe’s eyes sparkled with excitement as she looked Sisilia Thompson up and down. It was clear that this sister was much prettier than herself.

"I think you are very pretty too, little sister!"

Countless people had praised Sisilia Thompson’s beauty from a young age, and she was used to it. She thought everyone looked nice, so why single her out for being pretty? Sisi felt that it was those who were unique, like this little sister, who were the most beautiful, "My name is Sisilia Thompson, my nickname is Senna, but everyone calls me Sisi. Uncle gave me that name. Little sister, what’s your name?"

Sisilia Thompson had been surrounded by handsome men and beautiful women since birth; it couldn’t be helped, that was just her social circle. Over time, she grew tired of continually seeing these attractive faces, and to her, someone like Phoebe, whom she had never seen before and was average-looking, was actually beautiful.

Rio Gordon grew deeply worried about his niece’s future sense of aesthetics. It seemed he needed to let her interact more with Phoebe.

"My name is Phoebe. My dad named me, and the reason is simple, ’To live with hope every day!’"

To live with hope every day?

Rio’s gaze involuntarily moved to the woman still on the phone. Hearing the child’s tone, her father didn’t seem to be a scumbag type, able to give her hope in life, still full of hope for living. Not to the point of abandoning an orphan and widow, Rio, driven by some unknown impulse, asked a question that even he hadn’t expected: "So, Phoebe, where is your dad?"

"My dad has gone to serve in Africa, so he can’t be with me right now!" Thinking of her father, Phoebe still felt sad, knowing it would be a long wait before he returned.

Gone to serve in Africa?

Still alive? And not a scumbag, so why would Mrs. Leon pressure her daughter to go on blind dates? However, hearing Senna Leon’s tone, it seemed she didn’t want to go on blind dates. Could it be that Mrs. Leon opposed their relationship? So, they divorced, the man enlisted, and she returned with the woman, but still missed that man in her heart. Therefore, when Mrs. Leon asked her to date, she refused.

Rio Gordon discovered his imagination was quite impressive for the first time, conjuring up such a big story. He truly had a talent for creativity!

"Thank you, Rio, hand Phoebe over to me, she’s quite heavy!"

Senna Leon had finished her phone call and reached out to take Phoebe from Rio’s hands. Perhaps Rio’s gaze was too intense, making her hesitant to look up at him; she simply reached out to pat Phoebe’s head, but his gaze seemed still fixed on her, leaving Senna somewhat unsettled.

This feeling was really...

Somewhat different from before, yet somewhat like the anticipation she had in her youth. Although the reason for this illusion was clearly her overthinking. Who was Rio Gordon? Now famed internationally as a big CEO, when she was struggling through university, he had already skipped grades and completed both his graduate student and PhD.

With high intelligence, otherworldly looks, and an unspoken wealth, if Rio dared to claim second place, no one in Andras City would dare claim first. Once a God among young men, now he had become the fighter among CEOs.

She had long heard that thousands of A-list socialites were after her; those A-list celebrities whose professional goal was to marry into wealth didn’t even have the confidence to make a move. A man too outstanding was fearful to even look at, and she, in her naive days, had boldly and ardently pursued him, though the outcome was the same as those starlets who yearned but couldn’t obtain.

But it’s safe to say I have no regrets in this lifetime!

"It’s okay, not heavy, Sisi is heavier than her!"

"Uncle, you’re picking on me!"

This was the first time Sisilia Thompson realized her uncle was complaining about her being heavy. If it wasn’t picking on her, what was it? Usually, at home, when Mommy said she was too heavy and needed to walk on her own, Uncle would always say he could carry ten Sisis without a problem!

But now...

"Uncle, have you fallen for Phoebe’s little mommy?"

Sisilia Thompson widened her big, clear eyes, peeked out her head, and with her chubby little hands, she made a forceful swishing motion in front of Rio Gordon’s gaze, then exclaimed in awe, "Uncle, your eyes are going to pop out! Have you seen a beauty for the first time today? Can we not be so pathetic?"

Rio Gordon: "..."

He had been pathetic for many years, and didn’t mind being a bit more so.

"Sister Sisi, can I talk to you?"

Rio Gordon and Senna Leon hadn’t started to speak; one was intently watching her, the other bowing his head, neither knowing what to say. The little ones’ conversation, however, lightened the mood considerably.

"Go ahead, I’m easy to talk to!"

Every time someone spoke to her, they did it with the attitude that she was the Boss and they needed to discuss something with her, making it feel as though she was some female overlord – a feeling she did not like at all. She preferred people to think of her as a friendly little girl, so she was working hard to show this wonderful side of herself.

"Although your uncle is very handsome and matches well with little mommy, I... I’d like little mommy to be with my dad. It won’t be long before my dad comes back from Africa, and then..."

"Don’t worry, my uncle is so handsome and such a nice guy, he definitely won’t compete with your dad for mommy. My mommy told me that it’s only mistresses who behave like that. My uncle is definitely not that kind of person, yeah!"

Before Phoebe could finish talking, Sisi blurted out a whole bunch of words eagerly, then, realizing she might have said too much, she reached out and rubbed Rio Gordon’s hair. "My uncle wouldn’t stoop to being a mistress!"

Rio Gordon: "..."

Since when had he become the mistress?

Senna was his to begin with, okay?

Besides, she was being pressured into blind dates now, which obviously means she was divorced. If he were to take his place, how could that be considered a mistress?

After all these years of waiting, that had always been his belief.

After hearing Sisi’s words, Phoebe noticeably relaxed and immediately displayed a sweet smile. Children’s worlds are pure; they don’t understand feelings and simply hope the people they like can be together: "Then I can rest easy. When my dad comes back, I’m definitely getting him to propose to little mommy!"

"Phoebe, you can’t just say anything. Remember not to spout nonsense in front of Dad!" Hearing that statement, Senna Leon turned pale, "Your father and I are not suitable at all!"
