Sweet Pregnant Wife: CEO Phillip's Fierce Love novel Chapter 98

In Phillip's world, every question is just a yes-or-no question. Now he was waiting for her answer nervously.

The sunset cast a golden glow over the clouds. It was gorgeous. Ann could even hear the chirps of students around her. She was now in the school that Phillip had once studied in when he was young and he just said he liked her here.

It was as if they had really gone back to the days when they were still students. It was like a handsome teenage boy expressed his love to his beloved girl and awaiting the answer with the jitters.

Ann gazed at Phillip. His eyes looked clear and pure, not the same as the way they always were: cold and deep. Ann could see the love as well as the nervousness in his eyes through his thick eyelashes.

Ann remembered the words he had said long ago.

"Girl, I'm here! I would never let anyone beat you again!"

"Why are you so stupid? You should fight back!"

"I said that I will fight back for you."

"Don't be afraid, I will always be here."

"Ann, I like you, so you want to be with me?"

...

He said it was not as the president of the Moore Group, but as the hero only to her.

The proud handsome teenager in the past or the overbearing poker-face boss in front of her now, no matter who he was, Phillip had always been her hero by her side.

When she was a little girl, Ann had dreamed about the day that Phillip would say he loves her. Today, the dream came true and Ann almost cried.

He liked her and he was honest about it. She liked him too.

Perhaps, she should put a step forward, just like him.

Ann opened her mouth and wanted to say yes, but she couldn't make a sound as if she got stuck with something in her throat.

Looking at Phillip, Ann was so anxious that her tears kept falling.

Ann was crying like a poor kid. All the love in Phillip's eyes turned into disappointment as he reckoned she wasn't ready to say yes.

He heaved a sigh. He was worried that he must have pushed her too hard and afraid that she might refuse him.

He had never ever had this feeling--being upset and unconfident--like today. He reached out to hold her into his arms, his chin resting on her head.

"You don't have to answer me now. But I can't wait too long. I'll give you one more day. At the same time tomorrow, I want to hear the answer I want."

He was patient all the time with her, but still, impatient because of her.

Ann was mad at herself but felt upset and frustrated when she heard what he said.

She was blaming herself, 'Why can't I speak now?'

Ann opened his mouth and tried to speak again.

"Phillip."

Phillip looked down at her.

She spoke out.

Taking a deep breath, Ann looked up at him and wanted to say yes, but somehow didn't say it.

What she said is, "Tonight, bring Carson and Jackson to my place! Let's have dinner together!"

Phillip raised his eyebrows. Apparently, he was surprised. Ann lowered her head and bit her lips, annoyed.

It was just a "yes". Why was it so difficult?

Phillip was amused by Ann who was mad at herself. He had a big warm smile on his face.

"Alright."

When they were going to leave, hand in hand, the student who was playing basketball shouted at Phillip.

"Mister, did ma'am say yes?"

Phillip turned to Ann, who was hiding her blush, and gave a smile. Then he waved at those young brilliant kids. It was rarely seen that Phillip was in such a good mood.

...

Phillip sent people to the Dylan Villa to get three kids back. He himself went to the supermarket for ingredients with Ann.

There are a lot of people in the supermarket at the time. Phillip was following behind Ann with a cart. A well-designed suit set off his perfect figure.

Coupled with his attractive face and his noble air, plenty of women paid attention to him, and even taking photos.

Ann was jealous.

She turned to Phillip, only to find that he was very calm as if he had not noticed those gazes at him.

Ann turned around to pick the cabbage.

But she was annoyed by herself. If she could say yes just now, Phillip was her boyfriend now.

She could have told him that she did not like other women staring at him without any hesitation.

Phillip stood next to Ann and watched her picking the cabbage.

She kept looking for the best one before she found it. Then she put it into the cart and looked up at Phillip angrily.

She ordered him to follow up, different from the way she was in usual.

"Push the car over. Carson and Jackson said they wanted steak. Get some steak!"

Phillip lifted his eyebrows. Ann had changed since he took her to his middle school.

It seemed that he was right.

Ann panicked when she said that. Phillip did as she said though. But she still felt embarrassed when realizing that there were a lot of people staring at them.

Looking at the fresh food area, Ann found that it was too crowded.

"Wait here. I'll come back soon."

Before Phillip could reply, she ran over to the fresh food area.

Ann was thin and petite, squeezing into the throng to get food. Phillip was standing there to see her carefully picking up things. Everyone could see smiles in his eyes.

When paying the bill, Phillip stood beside her to block her away from the crowd with bags. Ann enjoyed the time being with Phillip.

She didn't expect a man like him would be so patient with her.

However, she was stunned all of a sudden.

It was because she noticed that Phillip's gaze was on the shelf that was packed with small products.

On that shelf, there was chewing gum, lollipops, and, also, condoms!
