Chapter 1281 An Obedient Child 

“I’m telling you, don’t even think about sharing today’s events with your wife when you get home. If she finds out, she’ll start picking up a trick or two from Mr. Rainsworth.” 

The others nodded in agreement. 

However, a high–ranking female executive acted entirely differently. Even before she went home, she gave her husband a call. 

“Are you not coming home again today? Do you have any idea that even our boss, the CEO of a conglomerate, isn’t as busy as you? He always makes it a point to rush home and have dinner with his wife, acting like a well–behaved child in her presence.” 

The woman’s voice could clearly be heard by everyone 

Just before leaving the company, Nathaniel happened to overhear it, causing him to slightly furrow his brows. 

He turned to Mason and asked, “Do I seem like an obedient child to you?” 

Mason wasn’t a fool. “Of course not. Don’t be upset. Women just have a flair for the dramatic.” 

Only then did Nathaniel’s feel somewhat at ease. 

Once he got into the car, he urged the driver to speed up. 

After an incredibly busy day, he closed his eyes, feeling somewhat weary, and pinched the bridge of his 

nose. 

Back at the Smith residence, Cecilia cooked while everyone helped, so there was no need for the chef that day. 

When Nathaniel returned, he found the kitchen bustling with activity. 

Elliot had also returned. “Sc*mbag daddy, you’re finally back.” 

He swiftly hug Nathaniel’s thigh. 

Nathaniel bent down and picked him up, carrying him into the kitchen. 

Due to the domineering air Nathaniel exuded, Lucille and Charlotte felt awkward as they stood in the kitchen. 

“Ceci, we’re done here. We’ll go outside to prepare the fruits,” Lucille said. 

Without giving it much thought, Cecilia responded, “Alright.” 

The two swiftly exited the kitchen, briefly greeting Nathaniel on their way out. 

Nathaniel, cradling Elliot, entered the kitchen. “Is there anything I can help with?” 

After a moment of thought, Cecilia said, “We gave the chef and housekeeper the day off. Could you help with the dishes later?”

Without a moment’s hesitation, Nathaniel agreed, “Alright.”

Cecilia enjoyed cooking but detested washing dishes. Unexpectedly, Nathaniel was actually willing to do it. 

“In that case, you guys should wait outside. It won’t be long before dinner is ready.” 

“It’s okay. I’ll stay here with you.” At that moment, all Nathaniel wanted was to spend more time with Cecilia. 

Upon hearing this, Elliot promptly responded, “Mommy, I stay here with you too.” 

“Alright then.” 

Cecelia had no choice but to agree. 

Outside, Lucille and Charlotte were washing fruits, occasionally glancing toward the kitchen. 

Lucille couldn’t help but comment, “I don’t know why, but I feel so stressed when Nathaniel is standing 

next to me.”
