My Bossy CEO Husband

"You saved me, so I will make my daddy marry you!"  Marry her? Marry her? Marry her? A second ticked by.

Then another one.Then three more seconds passed.There was dead silence inside the ward as the adults looked at each other.

When they finally recovered themselves...

"Pfft!" Luke spat out the mouthful of water he had been drinking.

He covered his mouth, trying to catch his breath in the middle of his violent coughing.

"Precious, what did you just say?"  The little girl only shook her head and delivered her reply casually.

"Well, Beautiful Auntie has been disfigured.She's no longer as pretty as before! Uncle Luke, didn't you tell me that men are the most superficial visual animals that value appearance above all else? Since Beautiful Auntie is now disfigured, she would have difficulty finding someone to marry her in the future.But then she became like this in order to save me.Even though I want to, I'm still too young to take responsibility.And since Daddy is my sole guardian anyway, of course it's only right that he would assume responsibility for Beautiful Auntie!" 

 Luke gaped at his niece.

She had effectively rendered him speechless.

It took him a moment to collect himself then he finally said, "You say that your Beautiful Auntie has been disfigured, and still you want your Daddy to marry her?"

His point was that Precious should have been worried her father might not like her Beautiful Auntie.

The child rolled her eyes.

"Uncle Luke, do you honestly think that my Daddy is as superficial as you?" Luke's jaw hung wide open yet again.

"Ha ha," Wendy laughed awkwardly.

"Precious, stop joking around."

"I am not joking!"

The little girl took Wendy's hand and looked up at her with bright, hopeful eyes.

"Auntie, I've liked you a lot since the first time I saw you. Won't you be my Mommy?"

Wendy's lips tightened into a line.

How was she supposed to answer that question? "The thing, Miss Finch, is we do not like being indebted to other people.It would be best that you make a request."

Wendy was in an utter loss.

‘What the hell?’ She had never encountered anyone who was so earnest in making others demand a favor from them.

Though she had only met Precious twice, it was perfectly clear that the girl came from an extraordinary family.

The same could be said of her father.

If she was not mistaken, the white shirt he was wearing today was something handmade from Italy.

His high-end apparel aside, the man also exuded such a powerful aura, which was easy to tell that he was far from the ordinary, common folk.

He was subjecting her to that same powerful gaze at the moment, and Wendy found herself unable to think coherently, let alone make any sort of request.

"Well," she said with a frown.

"Can you give me a few days to think it over?"
