Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1755: Holding Hands

In the photo, Celeste Linden and Danielle are sitting on the carousel, Danielle is laughing joyfully, and Celeste, looking at her daughter, smiles softly, with a cheerful expression. The gentle breeze brushes against their faces, capturing this incredibly beautiful moment.

Ethan Barnes reached out and set this photo as his screensaver.

Once the mother and daughter had gotten off, Ethan took them for another ride, and time flew by quickly; it was already seven in the evening.

"Danielle, it’s getting late, and you have school tomorrow morning. Let’s head home." Celeste Linden said.

Danielle nodded, "Okay, Daddy and Mommy, let’s go home together."

The family of three left the amusement park and began walking along the nighttime street. Danielle saw an ice cream stand not far away and found herself unable to move her feet away.

"Danielle, do you want some ice cream?"

"Yes."

"Then Mommy will go and buy some for you."

Celeste Linden was about to buy ice cream.

But Ethan Barnes grabbed her, "You two wait here and don’t wander around, I’ll go buy it."

Having said that, he went to buy ice cream.

Celeste Linden had to stand with Danielle in place as they waited for him. Ethan soon returned, holding strawberry-flavored ice cream, not just one, but two!

"Danielle, here’s one for you, and another one for your Mommy." Ethan handed one of the ice creams to Celeste Linden.

Celeste froze, surprised that he would buy an ice cream for her too.

When she had just started university, Ethan Barnes had taken a liking to her, leading to many forceful incidents, so she never dated any boys, nor had she ever received ice cream from one.

"No need, I don’t feel like eating." Celeste Linden refused.

"Celeste Linden!" Ethan’s stern and displeased voice came from above, "Take it in your hand, don’t make me repeat myself a third time!"

Danielle blinked her big, curious eyes at her, "Mommy, why don’t you eat the ice cream Daddy bought for you? Ice cream is delicious; it’s strawberry flavor."

Danielle took a lick of her ice cream, her little face beaming like a flower.

Facing his insistence and her daughter’s anticipation, Celeste Linden had to reach out and accept it, taking a lick of the ice cream; it was indeed very sweet.

"Thank you." She thanked him sincerely.

"Let’s go home." Ethan said.

As the jeep was in the garage and they had to walk a while to reach it, Ethan reached out and picked up Danielle.

Celeste Linden followed behind him, when her soft little hand was suddenly grasped.

His clearly defined and large hand reached over, clasping her small hand tightly within his palm.

His warm body temperature, the layer of calluses in his palm, clearly transmitted to her hand.

Celeste Linden was startled and immediately wanted to withdraw her hand.

"Watch the road!" he said displeased.

Ding.

A private car honked as it brushed past them.

"You fool!" he scolded.

Celeste Linden, "..."

Now he was effortlessly carrying Danielle with one arm, while his other hand held hers, as they strolled along the nighttime street as a family of three.

A few young girls passed by, covering their mouths in envy,

"Wow, that family looks so happy."

"They’re also incredibly good-looking, it’s like they got married just to deceive me!"...

Celeste Linden gave up struggling and let him hold her hand this way, as the dim light cascaded down, merging their figures together as a family of three.

Celeste Linden took another lick of the ice cream, and it seemed the air was filled with this sweet strawberry creamy scent.
