Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Chapter 536: The wife's resolution

Aria and Arsh returned home tired but still enthusiastic. Passing a few bags to maids to keep in Arsh and Arna's room, and a few in Aria and Alan's bedroom, mother and son carried the rest of the bags holding each other's hands to reach others.

Rian elbowed his brother, "Bro, Little Devil can live without you." He tried to make Alan jealous by looking at Nemo beaming which was a rare sight for everyone excluding Aria.

Alan looked at the little hand clutching his wife's hand even after entering the mansion. He wasn't sticking to his mother when he was little, so he started to think if it's from Aria.

"Snow, don't you want to check your gifts?" He blandly asked.

Arna excitedly ran and threw herself on Aria, after hugs and kisses, she separated the mother and son and held their hands. She coyed the duo, "Did you two bring me gifts? I worked so hard for you two."

Rian: "..."

Rian hadn't found his brother unbelievable but was speechless hearing Arna.

Arsh responded to Arna, "Snow, I sent your gifts to our room." Then he elegantly moved and held Aria's hand after sending Arna upstairs.

Rian and Alan: "..."

"Bro, Nemo is your carbon copy. He will definitely conquer what he wants. You should be happy he isn't your love rival." Rian remarked before he started his act seeing Aria was about to skip to her husband's arms.

"Little Devil, I burned my fingers grilling your favorite steak"

Roxy and Alan: "..."

Arsh passed her the first aid box before going next to his grandparents.

Amelia silently giggled seeing Aria smack Rian before applying the medicine to his faintly burnt finger. Roxy scolded Rian in mind, seeing him making Alan jealous purposefully by taking his wife's attention away from him.

However, Alan sat on the couch like a king with a haughty expression when Aria gave all the bags and sat next to him and holding his hand. He was silently saying, 'She is my dummy wife.'

When it was almost dinner time and Melissa didn't return, a message popped up saying not to wait for her. she was having dinner with Winston as it's late. 

The happiest one was Zeke Wen when he got to know their tea time extended for dinner.

---

Aria had expected displeasure of a few seeing Melissa can't walk but everyone welcomed her warmly from both Stanley and Wen family.

Since Melissa was retired, she shifted to city B. Vince accommodated her in one of his villa he had in the B city.

Everyone had thought Winston and Melissa might move into the same place but they were more like friends. They usually had two meals together and met almost every day.

----

At Imperial hospital,

Aria leaned on the door frame with Finn standing next to her. Both were amused watching Melissa and Winston casually talk, laugh while having their lunch. They fist-punched happy for the development.

Zeke stood next to them, he was glad his son got somebody to talk and share freely, "Shh don't disturb them. Let's go for lunch." He whispered.

Finn helped his grandfather to walk while Aria faced Zeke taking steps back, "Grandfather, shall I find a sexy and hot grandmother for you?" She teased.

Finn chuckled seeing his grandfather flung his cane and hit Aria's leg, "You brat, given a chance you won't leave anybody single."

Aria giggled and promptly accepted, "Absolutely."

Zeke shook his head helplessly seeing her happy seeing others happy.

Finn asked, "Grandfather, what's special today? Why did you invite us for lunch?"

Zeke didn't respond until they sat in the restaurant and ordered food. "I wanted to ask, which one of your children is going to enter the medical field? I don't want a CEO to look after the hospital. I want a qualified practitioner of medicine."

Aria and Finn: "..."

Aria couldn't understand why she or her children were being included with it. 

"Grandfather, it will be kids' choice to choose what they would like to become and they are still toddlers. How can we decide that?" Finn asked without understanding what was going on in his head.

Zeke waved his hand, "I don't care." He removed a paper from his blazer and placed it on the table. Finn and Aria saw the paper and realized it was a copy of his will.

Aria felt very uncomfortable. She was nowhere connected to the Wen family so it wasn't suitable to be including herself with it. Zeke knew she wouldn't like it so he wasn't going to give her a hard time. 

Finn spoke before him, "Grandfather, what's wrong with you? Why are you writing all these?"

Zeke ignored his question, "I will be direct. After Winston, the hospital head will be the one of your child who will be in the medical field."

Then he turned to Aria, "I know you don't like this. So you can avoid this by tricking my great-grandson or brainwash Finn and Rose to have more children. And this is final, I won't consider your nonsense. Let's eat."

The stubborn old man elegantly started eating for achieving his goal which was actually his wish to avoid making the Imperial hospital become a business.

Finn was inarticulate while Aria chuckled to relax their mood so that they don't lose appetite, "Grandfather Zeke, I will go with the last option. I will trick the couple to have lots of children. I will be godmother to all."

Zeke wasn't disappointed but excited, "Then how about five?"

Aria acted like thinking and shook her head, "I want six godchildren." She spread her five fingers of the left hand and held the spoon in right.

Finn: "..."

He so wished to toss both outside the window but controlled with all his might. He was completely aware Zeke included Aria's name to pressure Rose and him to have more babies and even expected them to ask his kids to study the medicine.

'Cunning old man.' Finn saw his friend making his grandfather happy and hmphed in his mind.

He guessed Zeke already spoke to Rose before meeting them. He could already imagine his wife preparing herself with lengthy speech and many tricks up her sleeves to seduce him.

He wanted to read what would happen if none studied the medical field but the old man slyly took the will away. Now he was cent percent there is a way out of it.

But he didn't know his wife's resolution was going to be stronger than his for many more years.
