My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1958

I wasn't convinced. I crossed my arms in front of my chest and huffed, "Mr. Roberts, if you have even a modicum of good upbringing, you should at least say thank you to your savior."

Hendrix turned his face away. "Well you're out of luck. My good upbringing has left me. If you want to continue being taken advantage of, I don't mind you staying."

"You..." There was nothing I could say to that.

I really couldn't understand how this kind of man, who had no manners at all and was so domineering and conceited, could have such a cute child!

I didn't want to argue with him, so I dragged my numb legs with me and started limping away.

Before I could react, a pair of huge hands suddenly looped around my waist and picked me up.

I never expected Hendrix to do this. I didn't respond for a moment. I grabbed his collar to steady myself, but I held back from looking scared. I gasped in surprise.

I looked up at Hendrix, who was staring at me with a sly look on his face. He curled up his lips playfully. His eyes looked at me cunningly.

Is this guy playing a prank on me?

I frowned and gritted my teeth as I said, "Hendrix, please behave yourself and put me down!"

"I am the child's father, and you are the child's future mother. Why should I put you down?" Hendrix said as he carried me to the bedroom, his tone was light and playful.

My face was red. I bit my lips and didn't know how to respond. Such a shameless man! How did he rise from his myriad of enemies to become the richest man in town?

When he walked to the door of the bedroom, we happened to run into Wynn, who was running around upstairs.

When Wynn saw us, he paused for a second before walking towards us with his computer. He was inching his way around us.
