Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 398

The tears in Mrs. Wendy's eyes fell at once. The Old Madam she was referring to was Zayn's late grandmother. Lindsey also felt a bit emotional for a while. Zayn gently patted her back and said, "Let’s go in first."

The Guggenheim mansion was still the same as Lindsey remembered. The only difference was that Lindsey and Zayn’s bedroom now had a connecting door to another separate small bedroom, which Zayn specially ordered someone to design as Dezi’s new room.

When Lindsey saw it, the surprise in her eyes was undisguised. She picked up Little Dezi and pointed to the small window in the bedroom and the toys on the floor. She was even happier than Dezi like it was made for her. "Look, Dezi! Daddy prepared this for you. Do you like it?"

Little Dezi paused and nodded. Lindsey looked at the well-behaved boy in her arms and suddenly smiled slyly. She whispered into Dezi’s ear, "Dezi, then you should give Daddy a kiss, okay? Just like how Mommy kissed you."

This child was not great at expressing any emotions. Besides the intense caution he showed with strangers, Dezi barely reacted to anything. Often when Lindsey kissed him on the forehead and cheek, he rarely responded, let alone take the initiative to kiss Zayn.

Dezi was stunned as he contemplated. In the end, seeing Lindsey’s anticipation, Dezi took a deep breath and nodded.

Lindsey was amused by his expression. She walked to Zayn’s back and patted his shoulder. When Zayn turned around, she brought Dezi to Zayn’s face.

The little one's lips smacked on the side of Zayn's cheek.

"This is Dezi’s thank you gift for Daddy." Lindsey laughed so much that her eyes squinted into a slit, especially when she saw Zayn pretending to wipe the saliva off his face.

"Just don't pee on me next time," Zayn said in a mean tone. He then turned around and pushed the door open before he walked out. Lindsey whispered to Dezi again, "Daddy seems to like it. He’s all shy now."

The three of them were exhausted. After they had enough fun, they ate a simple meal and washed up, then went to bed early.

By the time Lindsey opened her eyes the next day, it was already dawn, and the person beside her was no longer there.

She felt the empty bed and reached out to the bedside table to find a note Zayn left behind. His handwriting was sharp and thin. “There are some urgent matters that need to be dealt with at the office. I’ll be back to pick you and Dezi up at noon.”

‘Pick me and Dezi up?’ Lindsey was a little stunned by this. Then she recalled last night when she was in a daze, Zayn seemed to have kissed her and said that there was some event going on at the office in the afternoon. It was probably some sort of ceremony to recognize Dezi’s identity.

However, Lindsey was too tired then, so she did not think much about it.

In fact, they did not have to rush this matter. They did not even need this so-called ceremony.

Lindsey felt warm on the inside because she knew that Zayn would only agree to this adoption for her sake. Zayn also treated Dezi as his own child. Even though Zayn acted like he was annoyed by him, everything Zayn did was for the sake of Lindsey and Dezi.

After Dezi woke up, Lindsey and Dezi ate breakfast and played for a while, then they saw Zayn's car slowly driving into the courtyard.

Lindsey's back was to the window, so Little Dezi saw it first. Even though he could not speak, he stood up and ran to the window, then looked at Lindsey and pointed to the window.

"OMG! He’s so cute! What kind of godly looks is this? Is he really adopted?"

"What nonsense! The President and Madam are so in love, so adoption is nothing. I remember the Madam was pregnant before and the child was made the heir..."

"......"

There were all sorts of whispers around them. The majority of them were amazed by Dezi’s looks, but there was also a few not-so-friendly gossips, which Lindsey pretended not to hear. She just straightened her back. Little Dezi was holding her hand and did not even blink or dodge as he openly accepted the attention of the crowd.

Quentin and Soren stood at the front. When Zayn and Lindsey walked past them, they immediately followed.

When they were about to walk into the lobby, Zayn's footsteps suddenly stopped. "Fire whoever spoke just now!"

Zayn was expressionless and his voice was not too loud. He seemed like he was speaking to Quentin, but whoever at the scene could hear it if they were not deaf.

Quentin was stunned and his expression changed. He hurriedly said, "Yes, sir."

In the past, Denarius did not have this kind of staff who would gossip in front of the boss. Zayn had only been gone for a short time and this kind of thing happened, especially on a day like today.
