Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1172: A Family Of Three

Raelle stepped out of the penthouse with a lot of information and a lot of thoughts running through her mind too. She took the elevator back to the floor where she had stayed last night because she had to look for her husband before sorting out her thoughts. However, thinking of something, she changed the floor number.        

    

With a 'Ding' when the elevator stopped and the door opened, Raelle looked up to find a man holding a bouquet of flowers in front of a door. Usually, she won't be curious about such things, but considering she knew him, she stopped.    

The door opened and a gorgeous lady appeared while rubbing her eyes.      

"I say, it's too early to go anywhere," Raelle heard the woman say.    

The man only smiled and held up the bouquet saying, "Surprise!"    

The woman was Xiu whom Raelle just met last night raised her brows at her husband and asked, "Is this for me?"    

"Who else?" asked Darren in response. "Do I give flowers to anyone else?"    

"How is that possible? According to you, all flowers in the world only match your wife."    

Raelle looked beside her and found their only son Rowan standing there and looking at his parents with a critical look. He seemed very embarrassed for some reason.    

"Oh, we have eustoma today," said Xiu as she took the bouquet from his hands and looked at the colorful eustoma, also commonly known as lisianthus flowers. "Any special reason?"    

"Of course, to represent the life-long bond between us," responded Darren.    

She caressed the flowers and smiled beautifully at her, "It's not that bad to wake up early on weekends."    

"Says the woman who doesn't even wanna get up early on weekdays," said Rowan in a low voice.

"What are you muttering over there?" came Xiu's voice. "Are you badmouthing your mother?"    

"How is that possible? Mommy, I love you!" said Rowan as he ran to hug but the hug wasn't intended for her but for his father instead.    

Xiu held his shirt's collar from behind and pulled him away saying, "Why are you so clingy?"    

"I think it's inherited from you, my sweet Mommy!" said Rowan, not even a bit fazed or surprised by her actions as he fixed his shirt. Who asked his mother to be so extra? How could she let him hug her husband without a reason or rhyme?      

"Are you actually complaining? You have problems with your gene inheritance now?"    

"How dare I?"    

Darren looked at the two of them and sighed softly before saying, "Both of you... We are not alone here." He had already seen Raelle there so he wanted this mother and son to stop their usual way of showing their love to each other.      

"I did nothing," responded Xiu and Rowan at the same time. Then they glared at each other and added, "He/She started it!"    

"I can see who started it. But can we stop now?" asked Darren.    

"Then tell him to stop trying to snatch you from me," said Xiu.    

"Mommy, that's the father you looked for me!" reminded Rowan.    

"Actually, son... I looked for your father. I agree. I got him after a long struggle that you don't understand but..." Before she could continue to say something detrimental to his son's young mind, Darren put his hand on his wife's mouth to stop her.      

"We are going out, do I need to remind you, Sweets?"        

    

Xiu rubbed her nose and shook her head, "I remember. It's him. He forgets that I have you on the weekends. What are you even doing here? Don't tell me you're coming with us. You came with Aunt Fei. You're going back with her too. There are rules for everything."    

"Mommy, did you pick me up from the trash?"    

"If I did, would you be my favorite little tiger? It's just that I still love your father more. I told you that you shouldn't be even thinking about this. You wouldn't be here if I didn't love your father or he didn't love me."    

"You always find a right reason for all the wrong things," said Rowan. "But I still love you. Just because you're good everywhere else except for when it comes to sharing your husband with your son."    

"I don't share!"    

"Rowan, where is your grandaunt?" asked Darren. "Or you want to come with us?"    

"No thanks. I just came to see you two and find out which flowers you got for her this weekend," answered Rowan casually. "Besides, my grandaunt Feifei is talking to someone. So, I didn't disturb her. Don't worry. I'm a big boy. I won't get lost. You enjoy your weekend getaway. Just don't forget you have a son waiting at home."    

Darren smiled at him helplessly and rubbed his head lovingly, "We can never forget you."    

Even Xiu leaned down and kissed his forehead saying, "I might find you very annoying sometimes. But you're still the best son out there. Also my favorite."    

"You only have one son," reminded Rowan.    

"Still. The point is that I love you."    

"Then you'll make me red bean jelly when you come back on Sunday night?" asked Rowan trying to bargain since he knew it'll work at this moment.      

"Okay."    

"I also want, spicy fish."

"Got it."    

"How about some Sichuan style..."    

"That's enough," came Darren's voice to stop his son from stretching his luck so much.    

"Fine," agreed Rowan and waved at them. "Have a good day! Both of you!"    

Xiu was about to leave but still turned back to remind her son, "You better not go out with your sisters to find something to eat you shouldn't."    

"Have some faith in me, my sweet Mommy!"    

"Don't get into trouble."    

"I'm so nice. How can I get into trouble?"    

"Oh? Why was I called to your school before the summer vacation then?"    

"I wasn't at fault."    

"You never are!"        

    

"Exactly. Even my mommy is never at fault, how can I be? After all, I'm still your son."    

"Don't be cheeky with me. Also, don't forget to..."    

"Drink milk on time at night. Don't sleep late. Don't eat unhealthy. Don't tease your cousins. Mommy, stop nagging. I remember it all."    

"This old mother is not even respected now," muttered Xiu as she left with Darren.
