Purchased A Mr. Right -
Chapter 1410
It was a morning with bright sunlight in the early summer.
Crystal Chin, the cute little princess of the Chin family, had just celebrated her third birthday in the last week. She rubbed her eyes and ran down from upstairs with two little legs.
In the kitchen, Adam, in a standard military uniform, was cooking in front of the stove wearing an apron. Like always, as long as he did not go out for training or performing tasks for the army, he would prepare breakfast for his wife and children every morning.
Crystal shouted in his baby voice, "Good morning, mom and dad!"
With a white porcelain plate in her hand, Anthea was helping her husband cook. She heard this, turned back, and said happily, "Morning, Lil Star!"
Lil Star had inherited the outstanding genes of her mom and dad: she was an adorable and beautiful girl with fair skin. She got two little dimples from Anthea. When she smiled, she was as fantastically cut as those exquisite dolls in the cupboard window.
After saying good morning to mom and dad, she turned around and rushed to Erik.
The little fellow had grown a lot. Her facial features were delicate. Now he was more and more handsome. It could tell that he would become an appealing man in the future.
Lil Star called sweetly, "Erik!"
Erik smiled. He leaned over, carried her to the chair, and wiped away the gum on her eyes.
Lil Star, swaying her two short legs, was singing a song happily.
They sat around the dining table, and the atmosphere of the family of four was so cozy.
After eating two sunny-side-up eggs in a row, Lil Star suddenly tilted her head and called out to Erik.
Erik asked, "What's the matter?"
Her long eyelashes fluttered as she said, "Can I go to your room and sleep with you tonight?"
Anthea looked up at her daughter.
She did not think much about it. After all, she was just a little three-year-old girl and had no hidden meanings in her words. Just as she said, she only wanted to sleep with her brother. It proved that the two siblings had a good relationship, and Anthea was most happy to see this.
However, Erik's pretty face was slightly
flushed. "Why?"
Lil Star blinked her black, big eyes and said softly, "The bed of Mom and Dad is too small! Last night, dad even slept on mom, but he was so heavy. I heard mom cry under him!"
The restaurant instantly became quiet.
Adam was stunned.
Anthea was speechless.
This time, just like her son, she flushed bright red.
Because Lil Star was still too little to sleep alone, she had been sleeping with them in the master bedroom.
The couple looked at each other in silence. Both of them clearly knew that it was time to let their daughter sleep alone!"
Anthea coughed awkwardly and changed the topic. She stopped Lil Star from reaching for the food with her fork on Erik's plate and said, "You can't eat anymore! If you are too full, your stomach will ache again!"
From the day she was born, Lil Star could eat well and sleep soundly. As long as she saw something delicious, her eyes would sparkle. She was an authentic gourmet! Anthea wondered how she got this character, from her or Adam?
Lil Star pouted unhappily. "Humph!"
While Anthea was not paying attention, she secretly got the egg that Erik handed over from under the table and quickly stuffed it into her mouth. Her cheeks puffed up like a squirrel.
Anthea could only pretend not to see it.
Adam looked at his watch and then his son. "It's almost eight o'clock. It's Monday, and traffic will jam along the way. Erik, let's go. n
out now.
He would go to attend a meeting in the military region and could send Erik to school in passing.
"Okay, dad!" Erik said obediently.
Then they took out a tissue and wiped their mouths.
Anthea said, "By the way, you should go to pick up him after work today. Come back early! Today, Emerson and Bunny will come to have dinner with us. They've just come back with their children from L City!" Bunny gave birth to a boy and a girl, and then they held an extremely grand wedding in Ice city.
Bunny gave birth halfway during school, so she had not yet finished her college education. Meanwhile, Emerson gradually transferred most of his business overseas. Thus, he spent most of the time in L City and would only come back occasionally. This time, they went back to pay respects to his father at his tomb.
Ever since Emerson married his young wife and got a son and a daughter, he was in the peak years of his life.
However, Adam joked with him, saying that he luckily got his children before he was too old to get one. Hearing this, Emerson could only gnash his teeth in anger.
Adam nodded and said, "Okay, I see!"
When they were about to go out, Anthea stood up and wanted to see them off, but she saw her daughter pout slightly - she looked so unhappy that she was about to cry. Anthea was a little confused. "Lil Star, what's wrong?
Adam said calmly, "Erik didn't give her a goodbye kiss."
Every morning before going to school, Erik would kiss her. But today, he was a little anxious when Adam said they had to hurry up, so he forgot about it.
Losing a kiss from him, Lil Star looked so depressed.
Erik bent over and smacked her face.
When Adam saw her smile instantly after the kiss, he could not help sighing in his heart: Girls always preferred young men to their old fathers.
In the evening, their home was very lively.
Emerson came to visit with his young and pretty wife as well as his son and daughter. Upon their arrival, there were four children at home. They played around, laughing happily. Aside, their parents were full of smiles.
Bunny was only one year away from her graduation, and she wanted to go to graduate school after that.
Well, a female doctor, one of Emerson's partners, had a crush on him. Thus, Bunny decided that she had to get a doctorate degree.
She brought a gift this time, which fulfilled Erik's wish. She drew a meticulous brush painting of him and Lil Star.
Erik took it with both hands and happily carried it back to his room.
After the servants served the dishes, they took their seats around the table.
Halfway through the meal, the doorbell rang.
Anthea got up to open the door. It was Leonardo standing outside. In his arms, he was carrying a large teddy bear nearly as tall as him! He looked fatigued with the journey.
He had also changed a lot over the years.
Since his father fell seriously ill, he no longer stayed at the institute. Instead, he took over the Schain's Group. In the past, others, though addressing him as Young Master Schain, did not take this young man seriously. But now, most people in business would call him Mr. Schain with respect.
After many hardships, he seemed to have become more and more composed. With every move, he had the calm and domineering aura of a mature man.
He seldom showed his real emotions to others. Only when he was with Anthea, his best friend, he was willing to reveal his true feelings.
The teddy bear was a belated birthday gift for Lil Star.
Lil Star had her birthday party last week, but Leonardo missed it for he happened to be on a business trip to the capital. This time, he came over as soon as he got off the plane.
When he saw the lively scene, he immediately jumped up and complained, 'Anthea, you are not kind enough to me, aren't you? You didn't even call me to join this feast!"
"Why should I?" Anthea held her shoulder and rolled her eyes at him. "I've invited Emerson and his wife. They are here with their children. Well, you're single and all alone. Won't the happy family gathering hurt
you?"
Leonardo was struck dumb.
He felt like he was being kicked in the teeth!
