Daryl's depression was swept away, replaced by dissatisfaction and accusation against Zack.
She pouted and complained, "Well, I'm also playing the role of your wife now. Can't you pretend to be my husband and care about me? You even said I'm stupid."
With a smile on his lips, Zack reached out and rubbed her soft hair. "How can I comfort you? Isn't intelligence is your disadvantage?"
"Stop talking to me."
Daryl immediately stopped her expression and slapped his hand away expressionlessly. "I don't want to see you!
"But this is my place."
Daryl was speechless!
Benjamin took her hand and said seriously, "Mommy, it is fine. You still have me. Just ignore Daddy. You know he's just not emotionally intelligent."
Hearing his son's words, Zack's face darkened.
Daryl couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Well, baby, what you said make senses!"
"Benjamin, you are not allowed to watch TV tonight."
Zack ordered in a cold voice. Recently, Benjamin liked to watch TV with Daryl at night. No matter what his mother liked to watch, he could enjoy it with her attentively.
Hearing his father's ban, Benjamin curled his lips with dissatisfaction.
"Daddy, if you lived in ancient times, you would be a tyrant!"
"Exactly!" Daryl nodded in agreement.
Zack glared at them angrily. "So you two are going to rebel?"
"No!"
The mother and son answered at the same time.
Zack couldn't do anything to them!
"Then who mommy would be in ancient times?" Daryl asked Benjamin with a sweet smile.
The first thing that flashed through Benjamin's mind was that he was afraid that his mother wasn't able to survive in the palace where people intrigue against each other for power and position!
But what he said was as sweet as honey, "Mommy must be a beauty in ancient times. Even a tyrant like daddy will fall in love with you!"
"Of course not."
Daryl denied the latter sentence subconsciously, but she was happy to hear the first sentence! She couldn't hide her smile.
After dinner in Cannon's, Zack left with the two.
After returning to Zack's villa, Daryl went back to her room to take a shower. Then she plopped herself on the soft bed and couldn't move.
She looked at the ceiling helplessly. "Zack, why do I have to learn so many things in your family? Some etiquette are fine. Why should I know about antiques?"
Everyone in the antiques industry knew that appreciation of antiques was difficult. Moreover, the relevant knowledge was complicated and long, and it was difficult for people who were not interested in it.
Hearing her question, Zack put the tie he had just taken off aside, sat down next to her and explained briefly in a low voice,
"My four grandfathers are antique merchants, so the juniors of the family also need to learn about it."
"You have a four grandfathers?"
Hearing this, Daryl asked curiously, "Then why didn't I see him or his younger generation come before?"
"My four grandfathers are in A City. He started his business there when he was young, so he is old now and doesn't want to leave there. Besides, he hasn't been married, so he has no descendants."
