The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife

Chapter 458 Daddy, Can You Do It Or Not?

The next day...

After dawn, Susan pulled her hand off and got out of bed lightly.

Julian and Chessie did not move, as they seemed to be asleep.

As soon as Susan left, Chessie opened her eyes and looked at Julian. "Daddy, how was it?"

Julian let out a wry chuckle. "Not good, mommy is still angry."

"My God, daddy! You're so useless." Chessie gazed at him sadly. "It's very hard for Chessie to act! You don't know how to seize opportunities, daddy."

Julian's smile became even more bitter. He really did not know what to do.

"You're so stupid." Chessie glared at him, exasperated at his failure. "Women need to be coaxed. They need to be flattered! You just stick by her, and stick by her, and stick by her. That’s it. Daddy, do you have any idea how to pursue a girl?"

Julian cleared his throat when he saw Chessie’s patronizing expression. Looking back, he had never pursued a girl seriously.

With his previous girlfriends, it had been the other way around. He had not even needed to make any effort.

He and Susie had skipped the boyfriend-and-girlfriend part and charged straight into marriage.

Pursuing girls, huh... Chairman Shaw was really inexperienced in that field.

Upon glancing at Julian's puzzled and overwhelmed expression, Chesney sighed." Forget about it. Let me teach you."

It was funny to see Chessie act like an adult, but Julian still asked for her advice seriously. "So what do you think?"

Chesney thought about it for a while and asked, "Have you ever given mommy presents during the holidays or festivals?”

"I did so several times in the past but relatively less in the past few years," Julian answered honestly.

"Why not?" Chesney glared at him.

It felt... weird... being given a lesson by his daughter.

Julian said truthfully, "Mommy said there was no need to and she doesn’t lack anything. Plus, I've been relatively busy in the past few years." "Buddy, this is the core issue!" Chesney stomped her feet while looking at Julian." Finn told me that his father once claimed that women are troublesome creatures.

The more they say no to something, the more they want it deep down. So, when mommy said she didn’t want a present, you really didn't get her anything? Daddy, you’re truly an idiot."

It sounded like... it somewhat made sense?

Julian thought to himself and then said casually, "Little kiddo, don’t listen to such things and don't mingle around with that kid Finn."

"Tsk.” Chesney pouted her lips.

At that moment, there was a sudden noise a t the door.

Chesney and Julian's expressions were exactly the same. Both of them stopped talking and went back to bed immediately, pretending to be asleep.

Susan tiptoed her way to the bed, observed Chessie, and then smiled softly.

She had just started cooking the porridge, s o Chessie could have some warm porridge when she woke up.

Chessie's complexion had returned to normal, and she should recover after eating porridge and sweating a little.

Susan gazed at Chessie and left again.

When the door was closed, Chesney opened her eyes and whispered, "Daddy, I can only help you this far. Don't let me down and let my performance go to waste."

"I promise to complete the task," Julian responded solemnly.

The father and daughter duo stayed in bed for two more hours before slowly getting u p and going downstairs.

Susan's porridge had just been cooked, and when she saw Chessie, she could not help but summon her. "Chessie, come and have some porridge.”

"Okay, mommy." Chessie was about to skip breakfast, but upon second thought, she needed to keep her mother here for a few more days. Thus, she pretended to be exhausted and staggered her way there.

"Still feeling uncomfortable?" Susan looked at her with concern.

"I have a headache, and my tummy is still not feeling so good," Chessie replied feebly.

"Why is that? We'll get the doctor back here. Oh yeah, didn't the doctor give you some medicine? Have you taken it?" Susan said anxiously.

Medicine...

Chesney’s face stiffened, and she could not help but shoot a glimpse at Julian.

Julian gave her a reassuring look and took out a bottle of pills calmly. "This is the medicine. Three times a day, one tablet at a time."

"I’ll grab some water.” Susan filled a cup of water, placed it in front of Chessie, and glanced at her straight in the eyes.

Chesney’s tiny face was already twisted.

She really, really, really, really hated taking medicine...

Wuwuwuwu... What a price to pay.

Forget it, this was for mommy and daddy. She would do it or die trying.

Chesney picked up a pill unflinchingly and threw it into her mouth.

As the pill touched her tongue, Chesney could not help but blink...

Huh? The pill... was sweet and it tasted great.

No, this was no medicine at all. It seemed like candy.

Chesney could not help but glance at Julian. He he... Daddy was indeed very dependable.

Although her mouth was filled with sweetness, Chessie still pretended to be in pain and swallowed the medicine.

"Mommy, Chessie has recovered. Can I stop taking the medicine already?" Chesney asked pitifully.

"No way." Susan refused immediately. “ Listen to the doctor."

"Okay,” Chesney responded with a frown.

"Okay, now eat some porridge." Susan pushed the bowl of porridge toward her.

"Thank you, mommy." Chesney ate it gladly.

There were three bowls on the table, so Julian thought that one of them should be his and went to grab one for himself.

Susan turned around and shouted, "Sis Layla, come and get some porridge!"

In an instant, the lower arm that Julian had stretched out stiffened in the air.

Sis Layla looked embarrassed when she saw Julian’s stiff arm.

"It's okay, you can have it. I'll eat something else," Julian said calmly.

From beginning to end, Susan just drank her porridge with her head bowed.

On the contrary, Chessie could not help but shoot Julian several looks to show that she was commiserating. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

After breakfast, Susan wanted to leave with Chessie.

However, Chessie's stomach started to hurt again suddenly, and the doctor repeatedly emphasized that she should not leave the house to avoid a relapse. Thus, Susan ran out of options and could only stay back.

Chesney was very smart, so she came up with and tried various methods just to create opportunities for Susan and Julian t o get along.

Susan had been acting indifferently.

Chesney kept doing this for three days but could not act anymore. Therefore, she pulled Julian to a corner of the house when Susan walked away for a while. "Daddy, can you do it or not? Where is the present? Have you prepared it?"

Julian smiled awkwardly. "I don't know what kind of present I should get her...

Besides, I don't think this method will work on your mommy."

"You don't know if it will work? You have to try first before you know!" Chesney complained. "If you don't hurry up, I'm going to get moldy at home."

As Julian looked at Chessie's retreating back, his expression changed.
