Task NO 1 How To Pursue Miss CEO Chapter 13

Chapter 13 You Will Propose, Right?

Selena sat on the floor before leaning against the bed in a daze. She then reached out to touch Juniper’s head. “It’s okay. You go back to sleep, and I’ll get myself some cold medicine.”

With that, Selena tried to get up, but her knees gave way, and she fell to the ground.

“Mommy, you should rest. I’ll go get Miss Linda to come over.” Juniper rolled out of bed and went to look for her phone. Just when she was about to call Selena’s assistant Linda, she suddenly thought of an idea. Next, she dialed Pierre’s number instead.

Selena was so weak that she didn’t notice what Juniper was doing. She simply thought that her daughter was calling Linda.

Pierre was asleep in the middle of the night when he heard a noise coming from the phone and saw Juniper’s call. Feeling rather odd about it, he picked it up.

“Hello.”

“Mr. Handsome, my mommy has a fever, and it’s awful. Will you come over?”

Pierre barely hesitated before saying, “Yes.”

The woman had been bathing in cold water for the whole afternoon, so it was unsurprising that her body could not stand it. Pierre was living in the villa next to hers, but in order to hide the fact that they lived so close, he deliberately delayed for ten minutes before going over.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Selena slumped at the edge of the bed in delirium.

Hearing the noise, Selena said with her eyes closed, “Linda? You there? I may need to go to the hospital. Please call a cab for me, and you stay home with Juniper. She can’t go to the hospital; there are too many bacteria and viruses there.”

Pierre walked over and picked Selena up. She struggled to raise her eyes to see the upside-down face in front of her, but before she had the strength to say anything, her eyelids drooped again.

“It’s okay. I can wear a face mask!” Juniper had already gotten out the face mask.

Pierre took Selena directly to the hospital.

The hospital’s emergency room was full of people at night, and the hospital beds were all filled. On the other hand, the IV room was emptier, but there were only benches there and no beds.

After consulting with the doctor, going through the tests, and getting the medicine, the nurse finally gave Selena an IV drip.

Selena was still weakly leaning on Pierre’s broad shoulders in a drowsy state.

Juniper held Selena’s hand, which had the IV needle in it, and pouted in a heartbroken manner. “Poor Mommy. Mommy, sleep well, and you will be fine.”

She patted Selena’s head and sat down by her side obediently. Meanwhile, Pierre looked at this pair of mother and daughter and thought that they were like each other’s carbon copy.

“Mr. Handsome, do you like my mommy?”

Pierre looked at Juniper’s innocent and lovely face. Do I like Selena? He and Selena had only known each other for a few days, so at best, he was just somewhat interested in her.

“Yeah.” Facing this adorable child, he decided to lie to her.

“Then do you love her?” Juniper asked immediately afterward.

“Yeah.”

Juniper heard Pierre’s words and finally let out a sigh of relief.

“My mommy sometimes looks fierce, but she’s really a good person, and she’s the best mommy in the world. She’s the prettiest, the kindest, and the best. Don’t worry. She’ll be nice to your sons in the future, and I’ll befriend them too.”

Pierre was stunned.

It was probably because Selena wanted to dissuade Juniper from playing cupid that she told the girl that he had two sons, but what this child was saying was surprisingly touching.

“My mommy has had it hard all these years. She struggled to raise me, and she used to work late every day. Moreover, she always forgets to eat, which causes her to have gastric pains. She also has back pain, and it hurts especially bad when it rains on cloudy days. Although she is only 23 years old, her health is really bad, so she needs someone to take care of her well.”

Juniper’s voice was a little low as she lowered her head. As her existence brought too much burden to her mommy, she really wished there was someone who could take good care of her.

“Where’s your daddy?”

“Mommy said my daddy is up in the sky.” Juniper looked up at the ceiling.

In the past, when she saw other children spending time with their parents, she would ask about her daddy and wondered why she only had her mommy and Miss Linda with her.

Therefore, Selena told her that her daddy was up in the sky, and Juniper, who was more mature than other children, probably knew what it meant to be up in the sky, so she didn’t ask anymore.

“How about we discuss how to propose to Mommy?” Juniper’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Actually, my mommy is very simple-minded. She likes romantic stuff, so how about you hide the ring in the cake? Or create a treasure hunt and let Mommy find it.”

Then, Juniper looked at Pierre expectantly.

Of course, Pierre knew that it was impossible for him to propose to Selena, but he couldn’t bear to say it.

“Let me show you a magic trick.” Pierre changed the topic.

“Magic? You know magic?”

“Do you have a coin?”

Juniper immediately felt out a coin from her pocket and handed it to Pierre, who took the coin in his hand, made a fist, then opened his hand to reveal that the coin was gone!

Juniper’s eyes were wide with wonder. “You must have hidden it!”

While saying that, Juniper began to check Pierre’s hands and his sleeves. Next, Pierre touched Juniper’s head, and the coin reappeared in his hand.

“Wow, it’s amazing! How did you do it? Please teach me!” Juniper looked at Pierre with admiration.

Perhaps because Juniper’s voice was too loud, or perhaps because the IV drip was effective, but Selena’s body felt better now, and she slowly opened her eyes. She found herself in Pierre’s arms, where Pierre had one arm around herself, and the other was playing some game with Juniper.

Juniper was smiling happily.

A relieved smile flitted across Selena’s face. The woman had actually thought of marrying a man in order to give Juniper a complete family.

She had read many parenting books, which stated that a mother could do anything for the child except for taking the father’s role. No matter how perfect the mother was, she could never replace the father.

Selena closed her eyes again and decided to give Juniper and Pierre more time together.

The next morning, the IV drip was finally finished. Then, the doctor prescribed some medicine and instructed her that if the situation became bad again, she had to come back for additional IV drips. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

Later, Pierre took Selena and Juniper back home. When he was about to leave, he suddenly felt a soft, warm feeling in his hand, and when he looked down, Juniper was looking up at him. “Mr. Handsome, you will propose to my mommy tomorrow, right?”
