Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 271

The old lady looked at them grimly.

“I'm not a prisoner! Is it necessary to guard me like this? I just wanted to take a picture.”

“If you want to see Tim Crusoe, I can contact him and have him come to the hotel,” said the middle-aged man, frowning, “Why did you have to come here to see him? And you even took pictures of him? If people know that Mrs. Stevenson has done things like this, your reputation will be ruined.”

The old lady got a little angry.

“What did I do? I didn't break the law. Why would my reputation be destroyed? And a fan will never just call her idol to come and meet,” she snorted, “Forget it! I don't want to talk to you anymore. You wouldn't understand. You're as rigid as your old man!”

“Dad will be very mad if he finds out you were out seeing Tim Crusoe.”

The old lady's expression changed slightly.

“So what? Are you going to snitch on me? Are you my son or not?”

She hit him angrily.

The middle-aged man laughed and said in a soft tone, “Yes, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have brought you here in the first place. But after so many years, this is our first time to come back home. None of us are familiar with the environment here. We were afraid something would happen to you. If I were not so concerned about your safety, I would not be so worried.”

“Hmm!”

The old lady ignored him. She turned around and walked down the VIP aisle, escorted by a group of bodyguards.

Natalia didn't know what was going on behind her.

When she got home, she took a shower and called Victoria. When she heard everything was all right, she hung up the phone happily.

At this point, in an antique hotel.

Mrs. Stevenson entered the room and found the sullen old man sitting on the couch in the living room.

She walked in with a smile and asked, “What are you doing here? It’s getting late. Have you had your dinner?”

He ignored her and sat gloomily.

The old lady wondered if he knew.

She took out her phone and send a message to her son.

Two minutes later, she got a text. It turned out that the old man already knew. He was so angry that he didn't eat dinner and lost his temper!

The old lady put away her phone and said nothing.

Silently, she went to the kitchen and asked a servant to prepare a meal. Then she brought it to him herself.

“How can you skip dinner? Come and eat!”

The old man on the couch grunted. He turned away and refused to eat.

The old lady looked at him, trying not to get angry. She continued to coax him, “Sweetie, if you don't eat, you'll have a stomachache at night. Stop messing with me and eat.”

“Well, I’m not as reckless as you! You went out to see a man in the middle of the night, and you even tricked Robert to take you there! Am I nothing to you now?”

Her expression changed slightly.

She tried very hard not to lose her temper.

“Ok, ok, I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone to see him. Now, will you eat first?”

“No!”

“Just take a bite.”

“No!”

“...”

The old lady put the medicine on the table and went upstairs.

The old man was stunned and asked promptly, “Where are you going?”

The old lady said sullenly, “I’m going to my bed! I've been out all day and I’m exhausted.”

“But I haven't eaten yet!”

“Then just eat!”

The expression of the old man shifted for a couple of times.

And finally, he acted like he was quite aggrieved and said, “You promised me not to see that man again!”

“...”

The sad look softened her tone and she said gently, “Ok, ok. I said I’m sorry. I was bored at home so I wanted to go out for a walk. I was there by coincidence. I did not mean to go there.”

“If you’re bored, you can go out with me any time. But why did you go without me? Huh, you went there on purpose!”

“I...”

Her husband’s words gave her headache. Suddenly, she came up with an idea.

She said mysteriously, “Actually, I didn’t go there to see Timmy...”

“You called him Timmy!!!”

Now he was really mad at her.

“...I didn’t go there to see Tim. I went there to find our grandson a wife, our granddaughter-in-law!”

When she mentioned granddaughter-in-law, the old man's attention was immediately diverted.

“A granddaughter-in-law?”

“Yes!” the old lady quickly took out the phone and show him a picture “look, isn’t she gorgeous! She looks even better than her pictures. The children of her and our Charlie will be even prettier.”

The old man looked at the picture for a moment and said, “She's not as pretty as you were when you were young.”

“Nonsense!”, said the old lady shyly, “I wasn't that pretty.”

“To me, you are the most beautiful girl in the world.”

Right now, Robert has just come in and was a little embarrassed to hear this.

He was worried that his dad would get mad at his mom, which was why he came by. Now it looked like he was overthinking it.

When the lady saw him, she immediately shouted, “Robert, come over here!”

Robert had to do what she said.

“How’s this girl? Is she pretty?”

She raised her phone to show him the photo.

Robert took a look and commented, “Yes, she is pretty.”

“Right?” she was extremely happy to hear that, as if she was the one that was complimented, and she asked, “How about introducing her to Charlie?”

Robert raised his eyebrows.

He found it rather amusing.

After all, his parents were not young any more. Although the old lady had always been a fan of some celebrities, she was not so aware of the news on the Internet like young people.

He looked at the them with a smile on his face and asked, “Do you really like her so much?”

“Yes!”

The old lady was excited and looked at the picture with satisfaction.

“I think she's very pretty and nice. Charlie is not a talkative person and she is outgoing. They can make a good balance.”

Robert laughed even harder.

“Ok. I happen to know her. Do you want me to introduce her to you?”

“Really?” asked the old lady happily.

“Of course. But just because I'm okay with it doesn't mean everyone else is. If the boy from the McCarthy family comes after you with a knife, don't say I didn't warn you.”

His parents froze.

“The boy from McCarthy family? Archie? It’s none of his business!”

“None of his business? That girl is his wife, and you want her to be your granddaughter-in-law. Still think it's none of his business?”

They were both speechless.
