My Child and I Married a Billionaire novel Chapter 381

Chapter 381: Chapter 381: Strangely Cute

Zeke Walton knew Amina hadn’t quite figured out her feelings yet. He himself seemed to have only just come to his senses recently and didn’t know much more than she did. So, being seen by someone was a little awkward.

Amina went into the kitchen with the housekeeper, so he went to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth, planning to go to work with Amina later.

Halfway through brushing his teeth, Amina suddenly appeared at the bathroom door.

She leaned against the doorframe, blinking her big eyes and looking at him with an adorable expression.

She was so adorable, so innocent, that Zeke wanted to kiss her again.

"What’s wrong? Did you miss me this much after I was gone for one night?"

Zeke Walton felt a sweet warmth inside as Amina blushed.

"I want to talk to you."

"Sure," Zeke Walton said, his voice muffled by the toothpaste in his mouth.

"Go ahead, I’m listening."

"What were you doing last night?"

’A blind date.’

The words reached his lips, but Zeke Walton swallowed them back down.

It was true he hadn’t seriously pursued Amina, nor had he officially confessed his feelings or gotten down on one knee to ask her to be his girlfriend. But they had already come this far, and he had long since considered her his girlfriend by default. How could he tell her something like that?

Besides, it couldn’t even be considered a blind date.

They had tricked him into going; it was all their wishful thinking. Even if he never got married, he would never be interested in a woman like Yvonne Thorne.

"I went back to see my mom. I hadn’t been back in a while, and she missed me. I really didn’t notice my phone was off. I wasn’t intentionally avoiding you."

Of course Amina believed he wasn’t intentionally avoiding her; she had never imagined Zeke Walton would ever hide from her.

However, he went home to see his mother, which meant his mother must have told him about the blind date with Yvonne Thorne. Amina couldn’t help but feel a sense of unease.

"Oh. So what did you two talk about? I don’t think you’ve ever mentioned your mom to me."

Zeke Walton felt that Amina was acting strange today, but he couldn’t put his finger on what was odd.

’Is she being strangely cute?’

He reached out and pinched her cheek.

"What’s there to talk about? She’s just a middle-aged woman."

’His mother is so young, so beautiful, and so elegant, but in his eyes, she’s just a middle-aged woman?’

Amina shook her head. "I don’t believe that. Please, just tell me properly, okay? What does she look like? What’s her personality? What does your family do?"

It wasn’t that Zeke Walton didn’t want to tell her these things; he just didn’t think it was necessary.

Even if he told her the company’s name and what it did, she wouldn’t have any concept of it.

Besides, she had always been the type to tune out the rest of the world, seemingly uninterested in anything besides her job and her grandmother’s health.

If Zeke Walton were to force his family’s background and his parents’ capabilities on her, it would just seem like he was showing off.

"Why the sudden interest in all this? Did something happen to you while I was gone last night?"

Amina didn’t dare tell him about meeting Mrs. Walton yesterday. It was too humiliating. If she told Zeke Walton about all the embarrassing things she did, she would want to die of shame all over again.

"It’s nothing. It’s just that when I couldn’t reach you by phone, I suddenly realized that besides your name and your phone number, I know nothing about you."

Zeke Walton understood. No wonder she was suddenly asking about all this.
