Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101 The Baby

Adeline paused, her lips slightly parting, but Curtis raised his hand to signal her to stop.

"I'll handle it."

He said calmly and with authority.

These simple words carried a sense of assurance that Adeline had never experienced in that household.

No one had ever stood out and protected her whenever something went wrong.

Curtis nodded at her, gesturing for her to take a seat. "I am the elder in this household. I will take care of it."

Then, Curtis turned to Olivia and asked her to get a chair to sit on.

As Olivia sat down, she heard Curtis commandingly say, "I need you to go to the and pick someone up for me from the West District tomorrow morning."

Olivia was taken aback. "But Uncle Curtis, I have plans to meet a celebrity and take photos for her tomorrow."

"Then cancel it and do as I say," Curtis insisted firmly.

Olivia immediately pouted in frustration and retorted, "Who is this person? Can't he take a taxi here? Uncle Curtis, I really can't do it tomorrow! It's an important step for me to become a photographer!"

Before Olivia could say more, her expression suddenly changed.

Curtis stared at her and asked, "If that's the case, why did you ask Adeline to take a day off and pick you up?"

Olivia's face turned bitter.

"Olivia!" Curtis's voice grew stern. "I am your uncle, teaching you all this for your good. You treat Adeline as your future sister-in-law, assuming she has to please you because she will marry your brother. Do you realize such behavior would not be tolerated in a normal household? Furthermore, Adeline isn't even married to your brother, yet you expect her to buy luxury goods for you already, right?"

"Uncle Curtis!" Olivia felt a bit aggrieved. "I'm not like my mom! I don't intend to boss Adeline around. It's just a habit. Besides, how would I know if Logan didn't give her a card to use? I thought she was using my brother's money like me."

"Even if your brother gave her a card, you shouldn't behave like this!" Curtis's tone became more serious.

"Even among family members, there should be boundaries and a sense of respect. Let's say your brother is getting married. That means he would start his own family. His money would now belong to their household finances. If your brother and Adeline are willing to buy things for you, that's fine, but you shouldn't actively demand it."
