MARRIED TO MY CUTE WIFE

He’s Your Nephew

Dennis said curiously, “I know my mother’s character. She values her reputation very much. Logically speaking, the two of you won’t quarrel.”

“This matter can’t be explained in a short amount of time. Your mother and I only found out the reason last night.”

Dennis turned around and saw his uncle standing not far from him under the scorching sun. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and took a closer look. It really was his uncle. “Aria, why is my uncle standing under the scorching sun and looking at us?”

Aria turned around and narrowed her eyes at her husband. She said, “He’s probably sunbathing to replenish his calcium!”

Dennis said, “That makes sense.”

Dominic could not bear to watch any longer. He took his hands out of his pockets and walked toward the two of them aggressively. The weather was obviously hot, but the two of them felt a gust of cold air approaching them. The two of them stood properly as if they were mischievous students waiting for a lecture from their teacher.

Dominic walked in front of the two of them, his face dark, and said, “I didn’t get enough of the sun outside? You think I still have to go out to sunbathe when I get home?”

Dominic acted a little innocent. He leaned over to his deskmate. “Aren’t you also sunbathing to replenish calcium?”

Dominic pulled Aria to his side. “And you, watch your step. He’s your nephew!”

The two of them stayed quiet. Dominic grabbed Aria’s hand and pulled her away from the backyard. Aria staggered and almost fell. Dominic picked her up. “You need to have eyes to see where you’re going.”

“Oh.” Aria was dragged away. She turned her head and mouthed to Dennis, “Your uncle is angry.”

Dennis mouthed back, “I can tell.”

Dominic noticed the interaction between his nephew and his wife, so he tugged hard again. Aria stumbled again, and dominic carried her horizontally into the hall.

......

Dominic did not want to stay any longer. When he thought about his wife and his little rascal nephew, who had been deskmates for more than ten years, he did not feel good. He informed Old Master Cross that he was going to leave, but because Dennis cross had just returned today, Old Master Cross did not want him to leave in such a hurry. He stopped him. “What’s the hurry? Leave tomorrow.”

“After dinner, we’ll leave.” dominic made his final concession.

For the rest of the afternoon, dominic’s gaze never left Atia. Even when she went to the bathroom, he kept his gaze on the door. Aria could sense that there was something wrong with the man. He did not leave her sight either. This made Aria feel suffocated.

Finally, it was nighttime. Because Dennis had returned, Old Master Cross was very happy. Even the dinner was exceptionally sumptuous. When Dominic pulled Aria down the stairs, everyone had already arrived.

Mayor Edward said a few words to ask dominic to stay. Even Sarah Cross wore a rare pleasant expression. If it was before Dennis had returned, dominic might have stayed. But now, he explicitly refused.

Dennis slowly cut the steak in front of him. He did not say a word to ask dominic to stay, because even if he did, everyone knew that it would sound insincere. As he cut the steak, the tattoo on his hand became harder to miss.

Sarah pointed at Dennis’s hand and asked, “What’s going on? How could you turn into a bad child?”

“Mom, a tattoo doesn’t mean I’m a bad child. That’s the proof that I’ve stepped into society,” Dennis said.

Sarah looked at dominic. “dominic, we can’t control him. Tell Dennis.”

Dominic was the only person in the Cross family who could control Dennis. Dominic usually returned to the old mansion to discipline his nephew. When Dennis saw dominic’s gaze, he immediately put his hand behind his back. “Uncle, I’m old enough. You said before that when I turned eighteen...”

Dominic said, “Don’t let me see the tattoo on your hands. Either chop off your hands or remove the tattoo.”

Dennis had a mournful look on his face. He looked at Aria, hoping that his aunt and deskmate would speak up for him. However, Aria was confused. “Why are you looking at me? Your uncle asked you to chop off your hands, not me.”

Dominic said, “Three minutes. If you can’t remove it, I’ll get someone to help you.”

“No, no, no need to trouble yourself. One minute will do.” Dennis, who was alone and helpless, had a sad expression on his face. He got up and went to the bathroom. When he came out, his hands were clean and there was not a single trace of a “tattoo”.

Aria suddenly understood. “So, it wasn’t permanent!”

Dennis did not dare to really put a tattoo on his body. However, to satisfy his desire for one, he paid a high price for a very realistic tattoo to be put on his hands.

Mayor Cross hated that his son’s hair was always colorful. Taking advantage of dominic’s presence at home, he said, “Dye your hair black.”
