Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1769: Will You Come With Me?

"Danielle, let’s go take a bath first."

Celeste Linden took Danielle to take a bath, then coaxed her to sleep. Afterward, she took a bath herself and came out, but Ethan Barnes hadn’t returned to the room yet; he was probably still busy.

Since she had nothing to do anyway, Celeste Linden took out the suitcase and started packing clothes for him.

Whenever he went out, it was very simple for him; he just brought two changes of clothes. Celeste Linden packed the clothes he usually wore, folding them neatly and placing them in the suitcase.

Just then, with a click, Ethan Barnes returned to the room. The room was illuminated by a dim, yellow light, and Celeste Linden’s beautiful and gentle figure was busy with his clothes in her hands.

Ethan Barnes’s hard heart turned to mush, and he walked up, saying softly, "What are you doing?"

"Packing clothes for you; aren’t you leaving tomorrow?"

"Yes, I’m leaving tomorrow. I can’t stay at home any longer; there’s a mission from above."

"Oh." Celeste Linden’s long eyelashes drooped.

"Don’t worry, after I leave, no one will dare bully you anymore. If someone does, call me."

Celeste Linden didn’t say anything.

Ethan Barnes reached out and pinched her soft cheek, "Do you have a mouth? If someone bullies you and Danielle, do you know how to speak up?"

Celeste Linden quickly pushed his hand away and gave him a coy glance, "You can talk without touching me, don’t pinch my face!"

Ethan Barnes let go of her hand, then looked at the suitcase and deliberately said, "Celeste Linden, did you forget to pack an article of clothing?"

"What clothing?"

"Underwear."

"..." Celeste Linden blushed. She hadn’t packed that indeed. Didn’t he have hands to do it himself?

"Hurry up and pack two pairs of underwear for me, or do you want me to go without underwear?"

Celeste Linden instantly threw the clothes in her hands onto his head, "I’m not packing them, you do it yourself."

Saying that, she walked towards the bed.

Ethan Barnes pulled off the clothes from his head and quickly went over, grabbing her soft waist and pulling her into his arms, "Celeste Linden, aren’t you my wife? What kind of wife doesn’t pack her husband’s underwear and acts so righteous about it?"

Suddenly bumping into his embrace made Celeste Linden’s eyelashes tremble in panic, clearly still not used to his intimate actions, "What are you doing? Let go of me!"

"Celeste Linden, I’m leaving tomorrow for a very dangerous mission. Don’t you have anything to say to me tonight?"

"Say what?"

"Like for me to pay attention to safety, aren’t you worried something might happen to me out there..."

"Pfft pfft pfft!" Celeste Linden immediately reached out and covered his mouth, "Ethan Barnes, can’t you stop being such a jinx? Why do you say everything out loud?"

Seeing her anxious expression, Ethan Barnes’s lips curled up, his handsome face filled with laughter, and he said softly, "Celeste Linden, why don’t you and Danielle come with me?"

"What?"

"Come with me, bring Danielle, and live in the family quarters. Danielle can go to school there, and we won’t have to be apart."

Celeste Linden’s heart skipped a beat. He was actually asking them to go with him. She had never considered this before.

Originally, she only married him out of necessity, but now this marriage had changed; they were like a real couple, stuck together like glue.

"Let go of me first!" Celeste Linden struggled.

Ethan Barnes held her firmly in his arms, asking again, "Celeste Linden, will you come with me?"
