The CEO’s Billion Dollar Bride -
Chapter 1076 - 1056: Taking You Home!
Chapter 1076: Chapter 1056: Taking You Home!
Time really is a marvelous thing, it even cures thick-skinnedness!
"Um... I... I still have things to do, maybe, I should head back first!"
If she continued to stay, she couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t do something crazy again, or perhaps go mad, which was all too possible.
"I’ll take you!"
Rio Gordon almost instinctively blurted out, "Where do you need to go?"
"You stay with Sisi, Phoebe and I will take a taxi back, that’s fine!"
Phoebe was just over two years old and at her most troublesome stage, so she hadn’t driven the car out by herself, a fact Rio almost didn’t need to ask about. Ever since being despised by Chani Gordon for not being a qualified man, he had become quite adept at taking care of children.
"It’s fine, Auntie, just let Uncle Gordon take you. Having a man show you attention is something to celebrate!"
Senna Leon: "..."
This kid...
"Sorry about that!"
Rio Gordon, seeing Senna Leon looking at his niece as if she were an alien, quickly explained, "It’s all Chani’s fault, that little god. He’s always showing affection in front of her, so she’s picked it up! You’ll get used to it!"
Get used to it?
What a wonderful phrase!
As soon as she returned to the country, she heard that the girls of the Gordon family picked boys who treated them like treasures, holding them in the palm of their hand. There’s a saying in Andras City that goes, "Do more good deeds in this life, so you can be reborn into the Gordon family and enjoy fortune for a lifetime!"
Loved by parents when young, and adored by their husbands when grown up!
It was the same for Bella Gordon and Chani Gordon!
There’s another saying in Andras City, "If you want to enjoy life, first be a good person in the first half of your life, then marry into the Gordon family in the second half and enjoy a blissful life." The men of the Gordon family were all dedicated to pampering their wives, and of course, this man wasn’t Rio Gordon, but his father Michael Gordon!
Michael Gordon was a once-influential icon; with just a furrowed brow, countless companies would close down. Yet, such a man who could have had a playboy lifestyle ultimately chose to work for his wife. Mrs. Gordon became the wealthiest woman in Andras City overnight and from then on enjoyed a lifetime of glory and favor from her husband.
No wonder, growing up in such an environment, Sisi naturally talked about men showing attention as if it were the norm, because she’s seen it all too often.
Since the conversation reached this point, Senna Leon had no choice but to nod and not refuse any longer. Besides, it was quite inconvenient for her to carry Phoebe’s little travel bag all by herself.
"Phoebe, thank Uncle Gordon!"
Hearing Senna Leon’s words, Phoebe obediently said, "Thank you, Uncle Gordon!"
"You’re welc..." The word was cut off by a sudden chorus of screams from around.
"Wow, what a good-looking family, everyone come look, the man is so handsome, he’s just like the domineering CEO from a novel, and the woman is so beautiful, and, and the kid in the man’s arms is just unbelievably gorgeous!"
"Ahhh, this is real natural beauty, you can tell whether someone’s had plastic surgery by their children!"
One person’s excitement ignited another’s, and they clearly started making a fuss as if they had seen a celebrity.
"I’m so envious, handsome men and beautiful women are a perfect match, this kind of feeling is genuinely good, this is the beauty of human life!"
Fortunately, it was a children’s playground, where mostly parents were present. Otherwise, if it were younger girls and guys, they would definitely have run over to gawk. Rio Gordon and Senna Leon instinctively pressed the child in their arms closer into their embrace, as little children really shouldn’t be exposed to such attention.
Michael Gordon was holding his child with one hand and naturally pulled Senna Leon closer with the other. Although it was his first time doing so, it strangely felt as if he had done it a thousand times before, "Let’s get in the car!"
Senna Leon never expected that in her lifetime, she would get the chance to be embraced by him even just once. Although the reason was to avoid causing a sensation and affecting normal life, the experience was real.
Since she was with a child, Senna Leon naturally took the initiative to sit in the back seat. As soon as Sisi was placed in the car by her uncle, she climbed into the child seat on her own, buckled up, and after a glance at her uncle, she reported, "Uncle, we are all ready. You can drive now!"
Senna Leon: "..."
Who would have guessed that this princess, who is usually held in the palm of one’s hand, would possess such strong self-care skills!
Michael Gordon dropped Senna Leon off at home without getting out of the car. He just watched her through the glass until she completely disappeared from sight, then drove back home with Sisi. After handing the little one over to the woman of the house, he left with the car keys, not even staying for dinner!
"Sisi, did anything happen with you and Uncle at the playground today?"
Although Michael Gordon was a workaholic, he never worked overtime on weekends because he spent that time with Sisi—his only leisure activity. Unlike other rich kids, he didn’t sing karaoke, hang out in bars, and he seldom socialized. Of course, with Allure International’s status today, business could be discussed straightforwardly, and unhealthy socializing was unnecessary.
Yet today, his only leisure activity was cut short, and he returned early. Bella Gordon couldn’t help but find it strange.
"Nothing happened. We just saw a pretty auntie, and Uncle’s eyes just went wide, that’s all!" Sisi nonchalantly spoke while taking bites of her dinner, seemingly unbothered by her mom’s question.
Nani?
Saw a pretty auntie?
And his eyes went wide?
Is this Michael Gordon? Has the sun risen from the west?
"Sisi, what did Uncle say?"
"Uncle didn’t say anything!" the little one’s attention was not on her mom’s words. As she chewed through her millet rice and noticed her mom was waiting for an answer, she added, "Uncle just kept staring with his eyes!"
"Just staring at her? Baby, do you know what it means to stare at someone? To your uncle, women are no different from animals in his eyes—he’s never taken them seriously!"
Bella Gordon felt the world had become fantastical, but once she got over the shock, she became excited. Seeing the little one continuing to shovel food in her mouth like a starving ghost, ignoring her, she snatched away her rice, placing it in front of her, "Tell me who your uncle was staring at clearly and then you can eat. Speak up!"
Watching her mom’s action, Sisi was dumbfounded. Why was her mom more childish than her brother?
"Mommy, this is child abuse!"
"I am abusing you, so what? You’re not talking to mommy. You’re being disrespectful to your elders!"
Sisi: "..."
Is her mommy old?
She doesn’t think even her grandma or great-grandma are old, right?
Are you sure you require respect, mommy?
Forget it. She won’t argue with someone who’s jealous. After all, why complain when Uncle spoils only her?
"It was just a pretty auntie. Uncle kept looking at her, so I suggested he could marry her and make her my new aunt..."
