Chapter 57 Dream Lover
Adeline froze, never expecting Curtis to give such an answer.
Curtis totally got the point. He was practically her dream lover!
She thought to herself if Curtis could really do all that he said, he would definitely thrash Logan.
Melissa once made a joke that Logan was still on a dig when Adeline was giving birth.
After thinking about it, Adeline lavished praise on Curtis. "A perfect score. Now it's your turn to ask me questions."
Curtis smiled. "Miss Burton, I'm going to ask you the same question you asked me."
Adeline froze, realizing that Curtis was very sly.
But since he had already answered her question, Adeline thought about it and intended to answer seriously.
"I want someone who is completely different from my dad."
Curtis froze when he heard this.
A wry, self-mocking smile kissed Adeline's lips. "I've discussed this topic with my bestie before, and the answer's the same."
"My dad is chauvinist and has got a big ego. He always scolds my mother and me. He has always thought he's right and we are always wrong."
"I want someone who will never scold me and always respects me. I hope he never blames me if there's something going wrong."
"I want my husband to ask me if it hurts when I fall, instead of scolding me for being careless."
"I want someone who listens to me and respects my opinion, not someone who schedules my life down to the second and tells me what to do."
Curtis knew Adeline was telling the truth, saying gently, "Don't worry, I won't."
Adeline nodded and asked another question mischievously, "Mr. Riley, have you ever had a girlfriend before?"
"No."
"Well, I have to be honest with you. I once had a boyfriend of three years. Because of my past failures in relationships, I have one more request for my future husband."
"What?" Curtis was a little nervous.
He already wore gold-rimmed glasses like Logan. What else did Adeline require?
Could it be that Adeline wanted him to study archaeology?
Adeline saw his nervous look and smiled. "I hope that my future husband can always make time to spend with the kids and me no matter how busy he is at work."
"I can do that." Curtis was relieved, forked a piece of steak into his mouth, and asked, "Then, Miss Burton, have you ever thought about what he looks like, and what his personality is like?"
With that, Curtis pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up the bridge of his nose, and asked in an insinuating tone, "For example, someone who is cultured and gentle in glasses?"
Adeline laughed. "Mr. Riley, are you referring to yourself? If that's the case, you'll lose points."
