Let's Get Married novel Chapter 434

Rex brings Adair to a nearby supermarket that specializes in imported goods. The two of them already had a quarrel at home regarding Lily. If Rex didn’t put his pride aside and coax Adair, he may not have come with him.

“Look at what you want to eat. Take your pick.” He sees some fresh vegetables and says patiently to Adair.

It is a simple question but Adair isn’t his usual easy-going self. He looks over and intentionally pulls a face and gives him an attitude.

“Don’t you know what I like to eat?”

This is clearly a challenge to Rex.

He didn’t expect Adair to say it and is stunned for a moment. But then he quickly became joyful. If the child can say these, it means that their relationship has progressed closer. It looks like he has taken him as close kin.

His mood suddenly felt better. He doesn’t bother about whether he likes to eat and just takes some of each, as long as it’s not those that he doesn’t like.

Adair looks at the packed trolley and his tiny mouth is already salivating and his anger had dissipated.

The father and son walk to the snacks aisle. They are supposed to just walk past but Adair stared and his legs stopped. Rex pretends that he didn’t see and asks him, “Do you want it?”

“I want to eat chocolate cookies.”

“Your mom said no.”

“But mom said that she’ll buy some for me in two days.”

“It’s not two days yet.”

Adair thought for a moment, it seems correct. He reluctantly places back the box of cookies onto the shelf. His pair eyes are full of disappointment, “…Oh, okay.”

Rex is being responsible and reasonable like a father but when he sees Adair’s reluctance in putting back the cookies, his heart softened.

But he has to pretend a little, “I can buy them for you but you must agree on a condition.”

When he hears that there’s some hope, Adair immediately asks enthusiastically, “What?”

“You must sleep on your own, independently, can you do it?”

What he is thinking is as long as he can eat the chocolate cookies, he can agree to any conditions.

But when Rex says the requirement of him, Adair hesitates.

This isn’t any other matter. He is trying to take over mommy’s time. The price for having these chocolate cookies is too great.

The kid raises his shoulders, “You don’t want me to sleep with mommy because you want all her time to yourself, correct?”

Rex didn’t answer directly and approach it from the side, “Your mommy wants you to sleep on your own. You are almost five years old and no longer a small kid. If you can’t sleep on your own, how are you going to protect mommy in the future?”

Rex realizes that he can’t do it too directly, “Look, mom also wants you to do this and sooner or later you’ll have to sleep on your own. Why don’t you agree to me now, at least you still can eat some chocolate biscuits.”

This logical adult knows where the important issue is. After all, he is a four-year-old kid and falls easily into the trap.

Especially when at this moment he is so eager to eat the chocolate biscuits. This is the most enticing to him.

He looks at the biscuits and asks Rex uneasily, “Then will you snatch mommy from me in future?”
