Rotten Twins: Making a CEO a Daddy นิยาย บท 129

This place was as insane as that place was peaceful.

After Mark came back with Hansel and Gretel from shopping, Hansel went straight to the kitchen and started getting busy.

The open kitchen was as large as a room there, and Hansel’s small figure was barely noticeable in it.

On the sofa, Gretel played games while Lyla watched the news. The two of them spoke from time to time, looking very harmonious.

Mark played the assistant in the kitchen. Although he could not help cook, he could still help by handing items to Hansel.

However, when his eyes swept to the living room, he frowned. “When did this world turn upside down?”

“What’s wrong, Daddy?”

“We’re cooking here, but they’re out there enjoying themselves!” Mark said to Hansel.

At that, Hansel also looked outside. Then, he smiled. “Daddy, the world didn’t turn upside down. Don’t you think that as a man, it’s only natural to spoil women like this?” Hansel retorted.

Mark narrowed his eyes at Hansel’s words. “You seem to have a lot of experience!”

“Of course. Women are born to be spoiled. The more well off they are, the more it proves how capable we are!” Hansel said.

Mark’s lips hooked up upon hearing these words. He had to admit that Hansel was very insightful at his young age.

He instantly lost his complaints and busied himself in the kitchen with Hansel.

From time to time, the corners of his mouth hooked into a reassured smile at seeing Gretel and Lyla’s figures in the living room.

Hansel watched and suddenly thought of something. “Daddy, why don’t I teach you how to cook?”

“How to cook?” Mark paused for a moment upon hearing those words. He could hand over items, but learning how to cook was too extreme.

He shook his head. “No, no. I don’t want to learn!”

“How are you gonna take care of Mummy then?” Hansel asked.

“But you’re here!” Mark said.

“I can’t take care of you all my life, can I?” Hansel blurted out.

“What are you going to do if you’re not taking care of us your entire life?” Mark tilted his head and asked.

Hansel hesitated, as if he had been too quick to talk. “Well… What I mean is, I’ll also get married and have children in the future. I can’t keep taking care of your wife and children, right?”

Mark looked at Hansel. He knew Hansel was a smart and very mysterious boy, but he always felt that Hansel was hiding something from him. However, he could not think of anything.

Then, he smiled and said, “That’s fine, we can stay together in the future so it’s convenient for you to take care of us!”

Hansel. “...Is it really a good idea for you to mistreat me so blatantly?”

“I’m not mistreating you. I’m letting you experience the joys of familial love!”

Hansel. “...”

He knew that he could not say anything more. Daddy was a smart person. If he said any more, Daddy would definitely sniff something out. At that time, he would not know how to answer if Daddy asked for an explanation.

After thinking about it, he said, “Okay, in that case, what else can I say?”

“Good boy!” Mark ruffled Hansel’s hair.

Hansel expressed his dislike for this action.

Although Mark said he did not want to learn, he watched from the side while Hansel cooked.

To Mark and Hansel, when doing something, it was not a problem of whether or not they wanted to do it. Mark could learn just by watching from the side, but whether he could put it into practice by himself was another question altogether.

Soon, lunch was ready.

Mark was someone who knew how to live in pleasure. After opening the French window, there was a dining table outside large enough to seat six people which had a very classy look.

Under blue skies and white clouds, the steak with red wine sauce looked even more appetizing.

“This is the life!” Gretel could not help but say.

Mark smiled at her. “Come on, let’s toast a successful move!” Mark raised his cup.

“Cheers!”

Perhaps because they were influenced by Lyla, but Hansel and Gretel also had the habit of drinking red wine. Lyla did not say much regarding this. They were both children with self-control, so she did not need to say much.

“Cheers!” Lyla was infected by their mood and also looked quite happy.

After drinking a glass of wine, Gretel started to eat. “I haven’t eaten Hansel’s steak in a long time!” Gretel began to eat. Each of her moves was very precise, as if she had been professionally trained before.

Looking at her, Mark remembered that this was the second time they ate steak after he met Gretel. He could not help but smile upon remembering the last time they were together.

He should have thought of something then, but he just found Gretel very cute and looked similar to someone. He did not reject her and did not think much about it at all.

Fortunately, he knew now.

His gaze was indescribably soft as he watched the mother and two children.

He never had too much of an appetite for food, but he felt that today’s food was particularly delicious.

“By the way, Daddy, how did that thing go?” Hansel asked as he ate.

“What thing?”

“The matter with the shares!”

Mark smiled at that. “What do you think?”

“Okay, forget I asked!” Seeing Mark’s ostentatious manner, Hansel knew that he had asked for nothing.

However, Lyla frowned. “What shares?”

It seemed like there was a secret between them.

“When Logan Pattinson was the president of M.K. Corporation, he was arrested for fraud and M.K.'s stocks plummeted. Someone took advantage of the opportunity to buy M.K.’s shares with malicious intent to suppress them!”

“Then?” Lyla asked.

“Then, I did Daddy a little favor!” Hansel talked about this with delight. It felt quite good to be used by Mark.

Lyla’s eyebrows knitted at that. “What favor?”

She felt like Hansel’s ‘little’ favor was not very little at all.
