Chapter 216 Caught by Mother-in-law
Cecilia’s voice sounded, “There are too many bag guys. Daddy will come home a few days later.”
“Phyllis, your father is a superhero, so he must punish the evil and protect the good. Understand?”
‘Punish the evil?’
Sean was taken aback, realizing it was Cecilia’s excuse to explain to Phyllis.
However, after he went to the capital to get even with Luna or take revenge on the Mason family, he would punish the evil for real.
“I see, Mommy,” said Phyllis in unconcealed disappointment.
A moment later, she said solemnly, “After I grow up, I’ll become a superhero like Daddy.”
“A heroine.”
“In that case…”
“I can punish the evil with Daddy together. He won’t be THAT busy and tired. He’ll have more time to be with Mommy and me.”
Phyllis was sensible and adorable, making Sean feel sorry for her.
Sean failed to repress his love, pushed the bedroom door open, and quickly squeezed in to show up in front of Cecilia and Phyllis. “Good girl, Phyllis,” he praised with a smile.
“May I hug the future heroine?”
His sudden appearance shocked Cecilia and Phyllis.
However, when they recognized Sean’s voice, they yanked their heads up and gaped at his smiling face.
“Honey?”
“Did you…”
Cecilia widened her eyes, too surprised to utter a word. Subconsciously, she looked back at the bedroom door to check if Marcia was following him.
“Daddy!”
Phyllis felt surprised.
She cheered, lifted her quilt, and hopped off the bed. The next second, she threw herself into Sean’s opened arms and chirped, “I knew it. I knew it. Daddy is a good father.”
“You are super busy, but you’ll return to see Mommy and me.”
Sean lifted her and circled. Then he pecked her tender cheek and answered, “You read me like reading an open book, my dear.”
“Of course!”
Phyllis raised her chin and said triumphantly, “I can read your mind, and I also care about you, Daddy. I’m your baby and little sweetheart…”
Although Phyllis was only four and a kindergartner, she knew many things.
Sean clung his face to hers and hinted at her, “My little sweetheart, can you kiss me?”
“Mwah!”
Phyllis wrapped her arms around his neck and pecked his face without hesitation. Then she looked back at Cecilia on the bed and giggled playfully, “Mommy, your husband is kissing his little sweetheart. You cannot get jealous.”
With the proud look on her face, she looked indeed adorable.
Cecilia was amused. After glaring at Phyllis, she replied cooperatively, “Shut up!”
“Move! Let me kiss my husband.”
She left the quilt and pounded on Sean and Phyllis as she spoke.
“Oops!”
“Mommy is jealous.”
“Help me, Daddy!”
Phyllis burst into laughter. She nestled in Sean’s arms, unwilling to move.
The family of three was having a good time. At past ten in the evening, Phyllis was exhausted, finally. She fell asleep. Sean held Cecilia in his arms tightly.
He sighed, “It’s great to have a home.”Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Sean hadn’t experienced such a relaxing and worry-free moment. Five years ago, when he was the youngest master in the Mason family of the capital, he faced many family controversies.
He didn’t have a worry-free life back then.
Cecilia clung her cheek to his chest and whispered, “It’s great to have you here.”
In unison, they hugged each other more tightly.
…
It was a loving night.
The following morning, when the dawn broke the day. Marcia finally woke up after being unconscious for a whole night.
She still felt dizzy.
Spirit Wolf’s nickname was Holy Hand of Ghost Medicine, so he had many drugs. Sean believed he would encounter many jeopardies when heading for the capital, so he asked Spirit Wolf to give him many drugs. Much to his surprise, his mother-in-law became the first white rat.
Marcia sniffed the drug when she was off guard, so she was in a coma for a whole night. It meant the drug was indeed potent.
“What happened to me?”
Marcia sat up, shaking her head vigorously. She only remembered the scene right before fainting. Thinking about the fight over the Kats River and Sean’s competence, she cursed inwardly, and her heart performed a somersault.
“Bang!”
She kicked Matthew’s butt and asked, “Did Sean come here last night?”
“What?”
Matthew was still sleepy. He was almost kicked to the ground. Instantly, he sobered and blurted out, “Sean is supposed to be in Cecilia’s room, isn’t he?”
“You!”
Suddenly, Marcia broke off and sensed something wrong.
She realized she was too late.
“How dare you!”
She was riled up and snapped, “You old bastard! How dare you collude with Sean to fool me! Your legs have recovered, but you’ve become bold, huh?”
“Bang!”
She kicked Matthew again more fiercely.
Matthew let out a cry in pain and turned around, falling to the ground.
“I won’t let go of you!”
Marcia hopped off the bed and snorted, “I’ll teach you a lesson when I return.”
Then she stormed out of the bedroom.
Cecilia’s bedroom.
Sean and Cecilia had woken up. They held each other while chitchatting. Suddenly, Sean’s ear moved. The next second, he hopped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
“Oh! Shoot!”
While putting on his clothes, he said, “Mom is coming over.”
“I have to go now, Honey.”
“No worries. Before May 20th, I’ll return to marry you after solving the problems in the capital…”
Sean put on his clothes in a blink. After all, he had to do it quickly when he was in the military. In 10 seconds, he was good to go.
He had told Cecilia about his trip to the capital the previous night.
Cecilia also panicked.
“You…”
Before she finished speaking, Sean had rushed to the window, pulled it open, and hopped out.
“Bang!”
As soon as he jumped off the window, Marcia pushed the door open.
“Freeze!”
“I dare you to run!”
Holding a mop, Marcia was shocked when she saw Sean hop off the window. Immediately, she rushed over and looked down. However, Sean had been long gone.
Phyllis was woken up by the noises. Rubbing her eyes, she didn’t see Sean, so she asked, “Mommy, where is Daddy?”
Cecilia glanced at her and Marcia, her cheeks becoming rosy as she was too embarrassed.
“Cecilia! You…”
“You disappointed me.”
Marcia was fuming but couldn’t scold Cecilia in Phyllis’ presence. She gritted her teeth and added, “I’ll contact the matchmaker this morning. From tomorrow on, you should go on blind dates.”
Then she stormed out of the room.
…
Sean drove the Bentley Mulsanne out of Garden Community. On the way, he still had a lingering fear and felt annoyed. He had slept with his wife and daughter but had to do it secretly as if he was cheating on someone.
His mother-in-law caught him red-handed and kicked him out.
‘Wait and see! After I return from the capital, I’ll give Cecilia a grand wedding. Who dares to stop me by then? Humph!’
Sean didn’t take a rest after returning to the Sanchez Villa. He called Spirit Wolf and Pupil Wolf and bid Gemma, Dean, Owen, and Zackary farewell before heading for the capital.
Only two months were left before May 20th, but Sean believed it was enough for him to turn the capital upside down. He was determined to make the Mason family pay the price and discover the truth of the incident five years ago.
