Semua Bab Watch Out, CEO Daddy!: Bab 1461 - Bab 1470

Fern was still slightly dazed after returning home. Asher’s words continued to echo in her ears. Before getting out of the car, he had told her, “You can reject me, but you can’t stop me from liking you.” She still could not believe that Asher really liked her. This… How was this possible? “Mommy, you’re back.” Rue interrupted her thoughts, giving her a shock. She collected her thoughts and walked toward her daughter. She caressed her head, saying, “Have you eaten dinner?” Rue nodded and said, “I’ve eaten.” Suddenly, she noticed something. After glancing at her mother with an evaluative gaze, she asked, “Did something happen? Why do you look so spaced out?” Fern touched her own face. Was she being that obvious? She sighed and said, “You were right about something.” “What?” She met her daughter’s gaze and told her about everything that had happened with Asher. “Uncle Asher confessed his feelings to me today. He said that he likes me.” Rue’s eyes shone as she

Mrs. Neal narrowed her eyes and glanced at them evaluatively. “If she’s really your girlfriend, why did she behave so shamelessly? Why did she take off her clothes in front of my son-in-law?” Fern took a sharp breath after hearing what she said. It felt like everyone was fixing a mocking and contemptuous gaze on her. “You must be Sydney’s mother. Didn’t Sydney tell you everything that happened that day?” Fern could not stand listening to her nonsense anymore. Mrs. Neal was ruining her reputation. Fern said in a righteous tone, “I didn’t take off my clothes in front of him. Some soup spilled onto my clothes so I changed my clothes in his lounge. That’s all that happened. Stop defaming me!” “That’s right. You need to have evidence before you say anything. Ask Eugene Newton to come over and clarify everything in front of everybody. We’ll all find out if my girlfriend seduced him.” Asher believed in Fern, so he was not afraid of being interrogated. The onlookers finally unde

Soon enough, Wyatt came back to report to Eugene that Mrs. Neal had indeed caused a huge commotion at Fern’s company. She accused her of being a mistress who ruined her daughter’s marriage in front of Fern’s colleagues.Mrs. Neal had even slapped Fern across the face in front of everyone! Eugene finally knew why Asher had replaced her and told him all those words.Eugene’s gaze darkened as a hint of coldness arose in his piercing eyes.At night, Mrs. Neal comforted Sydney, saying, “You don’t need to be afraid of Fern Thompson snatching Eugene from you anymore. I’ve taught her a lesson.”Sydney was still rather down. She failed to bring Eugene home and even caught sight of that intimate scene between him and Fern. She could not forget everything that had happened in the lounge.“Mom, what did you do?” Sydney asked her in a despondent tone. She was not in high spirits.Mrs. Neal raised her brow and said, “I went to her company to teach her a lesson and stopped her from seducing y

After hearing Sydney’s question, Eugene stopped without turning around. He simply said, “I still have things to do at the company. I need to work overtime.” He proceeded to leave, but Sydney chased after him and grabbed his arm. “You’ve been working overtime at the company for such a long time. What is it that requires you to work overtime every day?” She no longer believed in him. She knew that this was an excuse he was using to avoid her. She had always behaved cautiously toward him and never dared to raise her voice in front of him, but things were different now. Fern’s reappearance had filled her with a sense of urgency. She could no longer control her emotions. “Just tell me if you’re trying to avoid me. Don’t give me a lame excuse and tell me you’re working overtime!” Eugene finally turned around to look at her. He fixed his gaze on her hand, which was grabbing his arm. His well-defined brows furrowed as he pulled her hand away. “Why should I avoid you? This is my h

Fern watched as the car disappeared from her line of sight. She turned around to get into her car but was shocked by the figure standing a short distance behind her. “Asher?” she called out instinctively. Asher walked toward her. His expression was exceptionally calm, so she could not tell how he was feeling. However, his gaze was completely focused on her. Emotions surged within the orbs of his eyes. She felt extremely uneasy with his gaze pinned on her like that. She could not help but ask, “What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?” As soon as she finished speaking, he suddenly pulled her into his embrace. Fern was stunned. She instinctively raised her hand to push him away, but he tightened his hold around her. He rested his chin on her shoulder and said, “Are you finally willing to acknowledge me as your boyfriend?” he asked her in an extremely joyous tone. Had he overheard her conversation with Eugene just now? “Don’t misunderstand. I was just—” She
