Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1733: Not Playing by the Rules

Ethan Barnes glanced at her; she was truly hungry, yet her eating still appeared elegant, and she found the food quite delicious.

"Who was it that said she didn’t want to eat just now?"

Celeste Linden swallowed a mouthful of white rice, feigning ignorance, "Who? Who said that? Sir, it wasn’t me!"

Ethan Barnes snorted and didn’t say anything further.

Celeste Linden picked up a piece of dessert and placed it in Danielle’s little mouth, "Danielle, is it sweet?"

"Mm, it’s so sweet! Both sweet and tasty!" Danielle said satisfyingly.

Celeste Linden felt satisfied too; actually, days like this were quite nice.

After dinner, the maid cleaned up the place. Little Danielle hugged Celeste Linden, "Mommy, tonight I want to sleep with you and daddy, on one bed."

What?

Originally, they had already decided on separate beds; she was to sleep inside, and he outside, but now Danielle was suggesting to sleep with them, which meant she had to share a bed with Ethan Barnes.

Celeste Linden was unprepared and directly refused, "Danielle, no."

"Mommy, why not?" Danielle blinked her big innocent eyes at her, "Other kids can sleep with their mommy and daddy, why can’t I? I also want to sleep with mommy and daddy."

"..." Celeste Linden was at a loss for words.

"I know, mommy is going to have a baby brother with daddy, aren’t you?" Little Danielle suddenly thought of something.

What?

Celeste Linden looked incredulous; who said she was going to have a baby brother with him?

Rumors!

Such rumors!

Little Danielle immediately covered her mouth, giggling, "Mommy and daddy are so shy, I’m going to tell great-grandpa that mommy and daddy are going to have a baby brother!"

As she spoke, little Danielle ran outside intent on spreading the news, causing a scene.

"Danielle!" Celeste Linden quickly hugged little Danielle and covered her little mouth, "Danielle, you misunderstood, daddy and mommy don’t want a baby brother!"

"Then why can’t I sleep with mommy and daddy?"

"You can, you can! Tonight you can sleep with us, we’ll all sleep together, okay?"

"Great!" Danielle danced with joy.

At this moment, there was a "tap" sound, and Ethan Barnes came out of the bathroom; he had already taken a shower and was wearing a black silk robe.

"Daddy, I have good news for you. Tonight, mommy is letting me sleep with you and mommy on one bed!" Danielle couldn’t wait to share the good news.

Ethan Barnes looked up, his gaze falling on her face, and he slightly furrowed his brows.

"Danielle, go play for a bit."

Danielle ran off to play; Celeste Linden lowered her voice to talk to Ethan Barnes, "Sir, don’t misunderstand, we originally agreed on sleeping separately, but Danielle suggested sleeping with us, and I couldn’t bear to refuse our daughter, so please bear with it tonight. I’ll let Danielle sleep in the middle, don’t worry, I promise I won’t touch you."

Heh.

As soon as she said that, Ethan Barnes let out a cold chuckle, he raised an eyebrow and glanced at Celeste Linden, "Just confess already, how long have you coveted my handsome looks?"

Celeste Linden, "What do you mean?"

"You think by blaming everything on Danielle I’ll believe you? I think this is all your scheme; one moment you talk about sleeping separately, the next you use Danielle to sleep with me. Woman, I think you’re truly dishonest, never content!"
