Rotten Twins: Making a CEO a Daddy novel Chapter 173

Lyla Lowe rolled her eyes at Mark and said, "You should get some rest!"

"But we haven’t finished what we started..."

Mark was unrelenting.

Lyla was helpless and said, "You’re still injured!"

"My mouth’s not injured though."

Lyla was rendered speechless.

"Come on, let’s continue..."

Mark whined like a little child and demanded a kiss from Lyla.

At this moment, Gretel could not help it and burst out laughing.

Lyla looked behind her and asked, "Who’s there?"

Hansel glared at Gretel, blaming her for laughing out loud. Lyla also saw them and said, "Come out!"

The twins slowly walked out side by side and said in unison, "Mommy!"

They looked at their parents and smiled.

Only then did Lyla recall how Hansel had scared her before.

Lyla sat on the chair next to Mark's bed with her legs crossed. She looked like a queen as she gestured for Hansel to go over with her index finger. She said sternly, "Come here!"

Hansel said to Gretel, "Mommy’s calling you, go over!"

"I'm talking about you!"

Hansel was dumbfounded.

Gretel laughed cheekily and said, "That's the price you have to pay for lying to Mommy!"

"You talk as if you didn't watch the show!"

"I'm watching it for free, and you're being charged for it!"

Hansel rolled his eyes at Gretel.

Lyla yelled, "What are you two muttering about? Come over here now!"

Only then did Hansel walk up to Lyla. He smiled sweetly at her and pleaded, "Mommy!"

Lyla smiled sweetly back at him and questioned, "Earlier, what did you say happened to Daddy?"

"I...I didn’t say anything about Daddy!"

"Then why were you stammering?"

Hansel argued, "I just stammered, but I didn't say anything about Daddy..."

"You...you still want to argue, huh?"

Lyla was so angry that she grabbed his ear.

Hansel felt helpless and thought, ‘Why does everyone like to pull my ear?’

"Mommy, it hurts!"

"Do you admit your fault now?"

"Yes, I’m wrong..."

Hansel immediately admitted his mistake.

Lyla's anger subsided a little and she finally let go of him.

Hansel touched his sore ear and said, “Mommy, I only did it for your own good.”

"For my own good?"

"Look, if it wasn't for my little trick, how could you and Daddy..."

As he said this, Hansel brought both his thumbs together and smiled with a mischievous face.

The hell.

These two saw everything.

Lyla was more certain that Hansel had done this on purpose.

She did not get to reply before Mark spoke, "Well done, son! You’re Daddy’s good boy!"

Hansel immediately smiled and said, "Thanks for the compliment, Daddy!"

Lyla looked at Mark incredulously and said, "You’re condoning this behavior?"

"I just think we shouldn’t neglect our son's good intentions for us. It's not easy for him either!"

Lyla was once again speechless.

Hansel nodded repeatedly as if he was saying, “Yeah, yeah, it's not easy for me either.”

“I just wanted you guys to be together...”

"So you guys are a team now?" Lyla asked and smiled, but that smile looked more like a warning.

Mark finally got his wife with much effort and immediately took a stand. He quickly said, "No, I’m always on your side!"

He then coyly added, "Whether it’s my heart or body, I’m all yours!"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Hansel just rolled his eyes at Mark and thought, ‘Way to go, Dad...’

Mark looked at him and said, "I don’t have a choice. Be more considerate of your poor father since Mommy just started to accept me..."

Hansel compromised and said, "Fine!"

He would do whatever it took for the sake of his parents’ happiness.

Hansel looked at Lyla with a sweet smile and said, "Mommy, you guys just woke up and must have a lot to say to each other. Take your time to talk it out. I'll go and get some food!"

"Go ahead!" Mark said as he smiled and waited impatiently for Hansel to leave. They still had things to do.

Lyla said, "I want you to cook!"

"Okay, I'll go back and make it for you now!"

Lyla smiled faintly and said, "Good boy. I forgive you now!"

Hansel was speechless.

He turned around and walked out.

However, Gretel stood in place and had no intention to leave.

Hansel tugged on her arm and said, "Let’s go!"

"Mommy told you to go, not me!"

Hansel took a deep breath and whispered in her ear. Gretel then instantly understood what he meant and nodded her head. She echoed, "Oh okay, let’s go then!"

Thus, the twins disappeared from the ward.

Watching them leave, Mark was in a great mood and looked at Lyla with burning desire. He said, "Honey..."

Honey?

Piers also joined in the fun, so the house was vibrant. The hospital was just the same.

After confessing his love to Lyla, Mark moved directly into Lyla's room.

Lyla was reading a magazine when she saw Mark had walked in. She frowned and said, "What..."

The nurse’s gaze was full of envy as she looked at Lyla and said calmly, "Ms. Lowe, I’m sorry, but the hospital is currently lacking rooms. Mr. Pattinson said that you’re married, so please just put up with it for a while."

Having such a handsome husband was worth dying for.

Lyla, however, did not understand. She frowned and repeated, "Married?"

"Yes, Mr. Pattinson said so!"

Lyla was rendered speechless.

After taking a deep breath, she smiled and spoke, "I think you’ve misunderstood, we’re not a married couple. He was just joking!"

"But don’t you have two kids? They’re so cute!"

Lyla did not know how to respond.

"Most of us at the hospital have seen them and we’re so envious of you!"

Lyla was once again speechless.

It was useless for her to say anything at the moment.

Seeing that Lyla was silent, the nurse spoke, "Ms. Lowe, did you guys get into a disagreement?"

"Disagreement...?"

The nurse said enviously, "It’s normal for couples to quarrel. Ms. Lowe, I can see that your husband loves you very much!"

What else could Lyla say? She could only smile politely.

She was not about to explain that she was a single mother. For one, it was not necessary. Moreover, she did not want others to gossip about her.

In the end, she just smiled and did not say a word as the nurse fixed up the bed for Mark. He then walked in.

"Mr. Pattinson, your bed is ready."

Mark was in a good mood and revealed an enchanting smile as he said, "Thank you."

The nurse blushed at the sight of that and did not dare to look directly at him. She said, "You’re welcome. In that case, I won’t bother you both. I’ll leave first!"

After saying that, she hurriedly walked out.

Lyla saw this and helplessly shook her head. She once again picked up the magazine and looked at it while secretly cursing him, ‘What a devil!’

Mark walked in and sat on the side of her bed. He was in a great mood and said, “Are you happy that I moved here?”

Lyla lazily lifted her gaze and asked, "Why did you tell them that we’re married?"

Mark said, "Then...should I tell them you’re my girlfriend? Don't forget, we have twins!"

"Still..."

"Now that the hospital’s lacking rooms, do you want me to share a room with another woman?"

Lyla did not know how to refute that.

"This is the only way!"

Lyla knew that he did this intentionally, but she was still willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

She took a deep breath and said, "Okay, you’re still injured. Go back to bed and lie down!"

Mark raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay!"

He then lifted the blanket on Lyla’s bed and squeezed into bed with her.
