Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1735: No Appeal

Celeste Linden looked at her adorable daughter, then turned her gaze to Ethan Barnes, who was lazily leaning against the head of the bed, holding a fairy tale book. He didn’t even lift an eyelid to glance at her, as if he couldn’t be bothered to look at her.

Celeste breathed a sigh of relief, "Danielle, mommy is here."

She walked over softly, took off her slippers, and climbed onto the bed, attempting to crawl inside.

However, Ethan was lying on the outside, so she had to go over him. Celeste tried to move carefully, making sure not to touch him or have any bodily contact.

She was about to make it across.

Success!

Suddenly, her calf was snagged by something. "Ah," she exclaimed softly, falling directly onto the bed, her leg still draped over Ethan.

Hehe~

Danielle covered her mouth and laughed stealthily.

Celeste, "..."

With her small hand clenched into a fist, she glared angrily at Ethan. Just now, it was him who sneakily extended a foot to hook her calf, causing her to fall.

Why does he love playing pranks so much?

Ethan lifted his strikingly handsome eyelids to look at her, seemingly in a good mood, with a faint smile playing at the corners of his lips, "So clumsy, you even managed to fall!"

"I..."

"Oh, I get it. You were trying to create an opportunity to have physical contact with me, weren’t you?"

"..."

Celeste didn’t want to say anything more. She quickly crawled inside, pulling the blanket over herself.

"Daddy, mommy, let’s go to sleep." Danielle happily nestled in between her daddy and mommy.

Celeste reached out to gently pat her daughter, and Danielle quickly fell asleep.

In her dream, Danielle seemed to be dreaming of something happy, and she let out a soft giggle. The innocent laughter of a three-year-old carried an enchanting quality, making it the most beautiful sound in the world.

Celeste too smiled.

At that moment, Ethan’s voice came from above, "Woman, sleep well and make sure not to end up in my arms at midnight. If I catch you, I’ll kick you down."

Celeste looked up, realizing he had unconsciously turned to face her and their daughter. The dim, warm light of the room cast from behind him created a golden halo.

He was looking at her with prideful yet soft eyes that were intensely focused, giving her the illusion of tenderness.

"Don’t worry, I won’t end up in your arms!"

"Really?" Ethan’s gaze lowered, landing on her nightdress.

Following his sight, Celeste noticed that the neckline of her sleepwear was somewhat loose today, revealing enticing curves and a faint woman’s scent.

"What are you looking at!" Celeste’s cheeks turned crimson as she hurriedly covered her neckline with her hand.

Ethan withdrew his gaze and lay back down, mocking, "Why cover up? Only people with something to show need to cover up; you’ve got nothing worth seeing."

What?

She had nothing worth seeing?

Celeste knew she couldn’t compare to those women with G-cup figures, but she had slender bones, and after having Danielle, she had filled out in all the right places.

"Young Master, you need to get your eyes checked; I suggest visiting the ophthalmologist."

Ethan, "Being unattractive is one thing, but having a bland figure is another. I really don’t get what I saw in you before. I do need to get my eyes checked."

"..." Celeste was genuinely angry, so she retaliated, "Does what kind of figure matter to you now? Maybe you should take care of your own body first!"
