The Heir's Secret Bride

Kiss

<3 +5

Byron came out of the master bedroom and bumped into Theo who had woken up and was thirsty.

The little guy was wearing cow pajamas and a nightcap on his head. He rubbed his eyes and yawned as he walked, like a fat boy who had walked out of a comic. Theo was not looking where he was going and accidentally bumped into Byron's leg.

When he looked up and saw his father's gloomy face, he was instantly awake.

"Why are you standing here?" Theo still felt uncomfortable with his throat, and his voice was soft. "Why are you not sleeping at night? Are you trying to scare me?"

Byron was in a bad mood. His cold brows eased a little as he looked at his son's well-behaved and sweet manner.

"Will, can you sleep with your mom tonight?"

"Oh? Are you that kind?" Theo's little face was alert. "Don't you usually throw me out of mommy's room when I'm asleep?"

'He thinks that no one knows, but in fact, I know. I have long seen clearly how he dominates my mommy Theo thought.

Byron thought that Theo did not know. After all, every time he sent him back to the children's room, it was after Theo fell asleep.

Byron coughed lightly and said to Theo in a low voice, "Mommy is not feeling well after drinking tonight. She might throw up in the middle of the night. You're the little man in the family. You should take care of your mommy, right?" Upon hearing that his mommy had drunk alcohol, Theo immediately became worried and could not be bothered to bicker with his father.

"I know. Leave it to me. I'll take good care of mommy," Theo patted his chest and asked, "What about you?"

"I still have something to do. I have to go out for a while."

"Go ahead. I'll tell Mommy tomorrow that you snuck out in the middle of the night to have fun behind her back."

Byron was speechless. "You're not allowed to read those messy books in the future."

'What did he learn?'

Theo placed his hands on his hips. "As a parent, you're not taking the lead to be a good role model. Do you want me and Leo to imitate you and sneak out in the middle of the night?" Byron, who was being lectured by his son, was speechless.

He could not bear this rebellious son for a single day.

He pinched the space between his eyebrows and compromised. "Alright, I'll sleep in the other room, okay?"

Theo waved his hand in satisfaction. "Okay, you can leave now. I want to eat carne asada tacos and waffles for breakfast

tomorrow."

Byron thought the way he ordered was very similar to that little guy.

Byron's thin lips twitched slightly as he tugged at the hairball from Theo's nightcap. "Take good care of Mommy. I'll give you

a reward tomorrow. Also, don't tell Mommy that I asked you to do this. Otherwise, you won't get the reward."

Theo groaned. 'Even if Daddy did not say anything, I will take good care of Mommy. But Daddy is so weird. Why does he care about Mommy in secret? An adult's heart is a deep ocean of secrets' The next morning.

Theo ate the breakfast he ordered last night as he wished, but he did not see his father.

Will heard that his mother was still sleeping after drinking last night. He tiptoed into the master bedroom to take a look and realized that his mother's forehead was a little hot.

He quickly called Theo over. "Theo, quickly take a look at Mommy. Does she have a fever?"

Theo could not even eat the waffles anymore. He ran over to check on Maeve.

"Mommy has a high temperature and some heartburn. Wait..." Theo felt that something was wrong, but he did not manage to grab it in time.

Will frowned worriedly. "How is it?"

"It might be caused by alcohol not metabolizing yet. Will, go get the fever patch I made yesterday."

After having a fever a few days ago, Theo thought about using traditional herbs to make a few sets of quick-acting fever patches at home to prevent his mommy from worrying about him the next time he got sick.

He made them for children and adults. He was worried that his mommy and father would use it one day.

Will knew where he kept it and quickly brought it over.

Theo carefully pasted a fever patch on Maeve. "You don't have to tear this off. It's fine to keep it on."

Will looked at him in admiration. "Theo, you are amazing."This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Of course. I'm Mommy's child!" Theo rubbed his chin smugly.

"Even if you're my child, if you're late for school, I will beat your little butt."

Maeve's voice came faintly.

Theo immediately jumped into her arms. "You can't bear to!"

"Mom, you're awake." A hint of joy appeared in Will's round eyes. "Do you have a headache? Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Maeve shook her head. When she touched the fever patch on her forehead, warmth surged in her heart.

"You two are going to be late for school. Don't keep the driver waiting down there. I will take care of myself."

"Mom, don't worry. There's still plenty of time," Will explained, "We'll go after your fever is gone."

Theo pouted. "That's right, that's right. How can we be an unfilial child who leaves their sick mommy to go to school?"

Maeve chuckled and poked his little head. "I think you just want to take the opportunity not to go to school. If it weren't for your brother keeping an eye on you, you will take in a bunch of lackeys in school every day to accept their offerings, right?" The little guy sat on the bed and fell back after being poked by Maeve.

His round little body fell onto the bed.

"I don't want to take them in. They were the ones who were willing to acknowledge me as their boss."

Will affirmed, "Mom, what-Theo said is true."

The group

of brats were so fanatical about Theo that even the teachers could not understand.

Gut 9/70

However, in Will's opinion, his younger brother was cute and powerful. It was only right for him to be liked by so many people.

Maeve looked at the proud Theo and shook her head helplessly.

At this moment, Will saw the necklace around Maeve's neck and asked softly, "Mom, is this a gift from Dad?"

"Do you know it?"

"Yes, Dad asked me when he was choosing a gift for you at the overseas auction last time."

In the end, they discussed for a long time before choosing the set of blue diamond jewelry.

Maeve was stunned. "The gift he brought me from abroad turns out to have been specially selected at an auction.

Theo looked at the necklace and said reluctantly, "Stinky Dad has good taste. The necklace suits you very well." Will was puzzled. "Daddy doesn't stink."

Will thought his dad smelled as good as his mom.

"There's still a long way to go before he can upgrade to the next title." Theo raised his chin proudly.

"Alright." Will didn't quite understand, but he respected his brother's hobby.

Maeve touched the necklace around her neck. What happened last night after she got drunk kept appearing in her mind.

Before she could finish piecing it together, Will asked her again, "Mom, can you lend me your bracelet for a few days? I want to make some changes to it so that you can use it for self-defense." Maeve was shocked. "Do you know how to do this?"
