CEO’s Mysterious Fiancée By Piper Dunlap Chapter 87
CEO's Mysterious Fiancee
I Need a Wife âI donât wanna bother him with a los*r like Nigel.â
Paige believed that she could bring Nigel down by herself.
It dawned on Deon that Paige was an independent career driven woman who could tackle problems alone.
âMs. Tate, you make me admire you even more.â
Deon looked at Paige with admiration.
Paige didnât look up at Deon. âIf you have nothing to do, you can go to scrub toilets,â said Paige.
âI⦠Iâm gonna go back to work!â
Deon hurriedly left Paigeâs office, because he didnât wanna scrub the toilets.
At night.
Sitting on the couch, Danica took out her phone and called her five sons.
âWeâve found your little sister. As it happens, sheâs on summer break. I want you to finish the work at hand and get home as quickly as possible. Actually, I donât care whether you finish the work or not, you gotta make time for your sister!â
âI know that youâre busy, but your sisterâs back. You and your brothers must come back for her and stay for a while. Do you hear me?â
âIf I find out that anyone dares to ice Paige out or pick on her, heâll be sorry!â
âYou can come home without your luggage or work, but donât forget to get your sister a present!â
Danica made four calls in a row. A few seconds later, Danica finally got Jackâs number. Jack was the last person Danica called.
âJust so you know, you all arenât allowed to miss all the festivals this year, especially Paigeâs birthday! If I catch you doing that, Iâm gonna kick your a*s! You understand?â
Jack complained, âM*m, Iâm also your son. How can you play favorites? I canât believe you do this to me just because of the missing daughter you just found.â
âHumph, you still know that Iâm your mother. How many times have you come back home to see me this year?â
âI⦠It wasnât my fault. My schedule didnât allow it. Besides, I never forgot to get you gifts and money!â
Jack sounded frustrated.
However, Danica ignored it. âHumph, I donât need your gifts and money!â she scoffed.
Jack didnât know how to reply. After all, Danica was rich.
âAnyway, you have to come back home this time. Oh, rightâ¦â Danica suddenly remembered something. She added, âCall me in advance before you come back.â
âWhat? Are you gonna cook a big meal for me?â
âOh, come on. Youâre a top star, but all you can think of is food.â
Danica said in an accusing tone.
Jack complained, âA top star also needs to eat!â
âActually, itâs Zoe, the daughter of the Bodley family who wants to see you. Sheâs been here for me lately. Zoeâs beautiful, well-educated, and gracefulâ¦â
âOkay, please stop. I know what you mean, but Iâm too busy!â
âHear me out, Jack.
Chapter 87 Need a Wife âYouâre old enough to start a family,â Danica said in a serious tone.
Get Dopus âM*m, donât forget about my four older brothers. If you wanna be a matchmaker, you should set them up with girls, not me!â
âI wish I could, but they donât listen to me. Besides, Zoe likes you. I have no choice.â
âM*m, youâ¦â Jack covered his heart in disbelief, not knowing what to say.
âAnyway, donât forget your sisterâs present. Thatâs all. Bye.â
Jack felt a sense of loss. If it werenât for Paige, Jack thought that Danica wouldnât have called him.
After calling her five sons, Danica finally felt relieved.
âHoney, are you thirsty? Come on, have some tea. Itâs good for your health.â
Smiling, Donald considerately handed Danica a cup of tea.
As it happened, Danica was thirsty after five calls. She took the cup from Donald and drank.
âI made you tea when you were calling Jack. It isnât cold or hot. A perfect temperature.â
After Danica finished drinking, Donald took the cup back, put it down on the table, and massaged Danicaâs hand. âHoney, you must be tired after five calls. Iâll give you a massage.â
âYou should take a rest too.â
âDonât worry about me.â
Donald lovingly held Danicaâs hand and said, âOh, right. When are you going to tell the others that Paigeâs back?â
In fact, Danica had been thinking about it. Pondering a few seconds, Danica replied, âYour father hasnât woken up yet, and your mother has a weak heart. My parents are old. Their health is getting worse. I donât think itâs a good time to tell them about Paige.â
Danica planned to tell her family about Paige when they were better. Danica believed that Donald and her parents would be very happy.
Danica worried that Donald and her parents were too shocked by the news, which was bad for their health.
Then the good news would be bad news.
Once Donald and Danicaâs parents knew that Paige was back, they must tell all the relatives in both families. Given that, Danica and Donald would have to deal with their relatives. Danica didnât want that to happen.
It wasnât hard for Danica to deal with her relatives, but she didnât wanna cause Paige any trouble.
âIâve spent way too much effort finding Paige. I wanna spend more time with her and make up for the time lost.â
Donald kept massaging Danicaâs hands while talking, âThe more people know that we found Paige, the less time we can spend with her. What do you think?â
âI donât want anyone to stand in the way of a family reunion.â
Suddenly, Danicaâs phone rang. Danica checked the phone. It was Paige.
Donald looked at Danica with jealousy. He wondered, I want Paige to call me too!
Danica cleared her throat with a serious face and picked up the phone happily. âPaige? Whatâs theâ¦â
âM*m, Martin and I will eat out tonight.â
âAlright⦠Since youâre seeing Martin, Iâve never expected you to come home for dinner.â
Paige was lost for words.
Paige somehow sensed the disappointment in Danicaâs tone.
Chapter 87 Need a Wife âDonât worry about us. Have fun tonight!â Danica added.
Danica still wanted to talk to Paige, but she was afraid that Paige would be annoyed if she kept talking.
Thus, Danica humedly continued, âIâd better not take up much of your time. Gotta go.â
âOkay.â
After Paige hung up, she looked at the man in the car and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âThe way you call me really upsets me,â Martin said.
Martin hugged Paige and continued in an affectionate way, âI wish you could call me âhoneyâ.â
Paige was speechless.
âOr âbabeâ, if you like.â
It was hard for Paige to call Martin âhoneyâ. âI think itâs better that I call you by your first name,â Paige replied.
âNo. âHoneyâ is better.â
Paige didnât know how to respond.
âCome on.
âCall me âhoney,â Martin insisted.
âIâm gonna get out of the car if you keep pushing me.â
Martin immediately sh*t up. He silently hugged Paige, pressing his forehead against hers from time to time and kissing her.
âStop!â
Paige was a little angry. Martin had been getting carried away lately.
âDonât make me nag you.â
Martin replied fondly with a warm smile, âI like the way you nag me.â
Paige fell silent.
âI need a wife who nags me as you do.â
Martinâs eyes were full of affection and sincerity.
It tugged at Paigeâs heartstrings. Paige immediately looked away.
