บททั้งหมดของ Marrying a Disabled CEO in My Sister's Place: บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

After just over an hour of talking with Ruby Bennett, Alice felt more confused than ever as she walked down the clinic hallways toward Dr. Lewis's office. At the same time that this woman could sound more sincere than anyone else in the world, she also seemed to hold hundreds of secrets deep in her eyes. Well, not even Alice could deny that she was treating Lucy very well, almost to the point of being considered her friend, but...Was that in itself proof that she wasn't planning to attack Lucinda behind her back to get the position of daughter-in-law of Hugo Peterson, the oil tycoon?God, Alice needed to pause those thoughts and save them for later, before her head started to hurt. Now, she just needed to walk Massimo to his car so they could go home...“Alice.” The last voice she needed to hear called

“Lady! Lady! Look what a cool backpack Massimo got for me!”“Millie! Don't run! You might end up falling...! And don't leave your backpack that close to Lady! She might end up chewing and ruining it...” Alice tried to warn her daughter while at the car door, but obviously Millicent didn't pay her any attention, continuing to run towards the main door, with the colorful ball in her arms.“If Lady ends up turning the thing into her new chew toy, that’s okay.” Massimo shrugged, leaning on the car door so he could move to his wheelchair “There are three others in the store. The seller will keep them for us. What matters is that Millie is happy.”“You'll regret saying that when she becomes a teenager who asks you for things like jewelry and sports cars.” A

“Massimo...?” Alice muttered, her voice still managing to fail because of the shock “What...

Massimo questioned her, the firmness in his voice, as if there was not the slightest possibility of him regretting saying that, elicited a response from Alice before she realized what she was doing.“Of course I do.” She gasped, her tongue escaping to lick her lips when she realized Massimo’s eyes were fixed there.“Great. Say goodbye to your mother and sister. The next time they see us, you'll be at the altar, telling me yes again.
