Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly)

Chapter 1588



Mashauva remembered the girl was as thin as Bruno. Although she was not as tall as him, she was slender, with makeup on her face and she smelled good.

Mashauva thought she was outstanding and wished to be like her.

Then, Mashauva went back to her closet to get a different set of clothes only to find all of them childish, like what a child would wear.

She contemplated for a long time and gave up in the end. She went downstairs dejectedly to meet Bruno.

"Bruno, it's a new year. I can't believe you're already 21. Time sure flies."

Bruno pursed his lips and smiled faintly. "Yeah."

"Mashauva was only this big when she went to your house, but now, she's already 17. In another year, she'll be of legal age."

Cassie was actually trying to hint at Bruno.

Mashauva was clueless with matters of the heart, but Bruno definitely wasn't. After all, the boy was precocious and steady; he'd figure out what she was trying to imply.

Indeed, Bruno could tell Cassie was hinting at something, but he wasn't sure exactly what.

Was she trying to tell him Mashauva would become an adult soon and that he should be aware of it, or was she implying something else?

"What is this girl still doing upstairs? I've already called her down, and she said she'd be down soon. Maybe she has fallen back to sleep. I should go get her again."

As they spoke, Mashauva came down. She was wearing a red dress and had tied her waist-length hair into a high ponytail with a big red bow, making her look particularly lovely.

"Mom, Bruno."

"Mashauva, come."This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Cassie smiled and gestured for Mashauva to come to her, and she took the chance to nestle in her mother's arms. "Bruno said he wants to bring you to Winterland this year. Since we've already had our new year's eve dinner, you should go with him," Cassie said.

"Winterland?"

Yeah." Bruno nodded. "I've already packed my luggage. We will drive there ourselves."

He has already packed?! Mashauva was a little surprised. She thought for a moment before asking, "Will you go alone if I don't go?" "Of course not."

Mashauva's face lit up. "Then wait for me, Bruno. I'll go and pack my luggage."

"Pack thicker clothes. It's cold there."

"Alright."

With that, Mashauva ran back to her room to pack for the trip. Cassie stood up after some thought and said, "Mashauva has never been to Winterland before. I'll go help her with her luggage; with her capability, she'll just freeze herself into a snowman."

A snowman?

The idea of Mashauva as a snowman appeared in Bruno's mind, and the smile in his eyes grew deeper. He then nodded. "Sure, feel free to take your time, Mrs. Taylor."

"Then I'll go up now."

Cassie went upstairs to help Mashauva pack.

Bruno's phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Freddy.

"What's up?"

"Bruno, I'm so sorry, dude!" Freddy's voice was filled with annoyance and frustration. "When my mom called my uncle last night, she let slip my trip to Winterland. Now my uncle's daughter wants to tag along."

"What now, Bruno? I don't want to take her with us. She talks too much."

Bruno did not answer him, silent.

"My mom suggests that we take her along since there are only three of us. If anything, Mashauva will have company. After all, she'll be sleeping alone when we get there."

Bruno's eyes moved slightly at that.

Mashauva was a brave girl, mainly because she was silly and naive. Therefore, she'd be fine even if she was to live alone.

However, having one more person meant that they'd be able to look out for each other better.

"What should I do, Bruno? She wouldn't stop making a fuss about it, so I wanted to know what you think."

"Bring her."

It was just one more girl. Moreover, there'd still be some inconvenience if he and Freddy looked after Mashauva alone.

"Oh, thank you, Bruno! I'll remember your kindness forever."

Bruno could not be bothered to listen to Freddy's flattery, so he hung up before Freddy could finish his words.

About twenty minutes later, Cassie came down with Mashauva, a huge suitcase in her hands. Seeing that, Bruno went forward and took over the suitcase.

"She's all set and ready to go. I've also made some snacks for you guys to eat on your journey."

"Thank you, Mrs. Taylor."

Mashauva was now wearing a red hooded cape coat in addition to her red dress. It was woolen, so it was enough to keep her warm.

Her outfit complimented the rosy undertone of her fair skin.

Bruno could not help but touch her hat. "You look like a little red riding hood, pretty cute."

Mashauva's cheeks were flushed. She said softly, "Bruno, can you help take pictures of me in the snow?"

"Of course."

"All you know to do is to trouble Bruno." Cassie reproached Mashauva, "You can take selfies with your phone."

"But if I do it myself, I won't be able to take a fullbody shot."

"Alright, everything is ready. How many days are you guys planning to spend there? The traffic can be quite bad during the new year. Watch out for yourselves."

"I'll make sure Mashauva comes back safely, Mrs. Taylor."

After that, Bruno placed Mashauva's

Bruno

suitcase into the trunk of his car

before he opened the front

passenger car door for her, and even helped fasten her seatbelt. Cassie and Richard came out to see them off.

"Bye, Mom, Daddy."

"Be careful and take care!"

After they left, Richard sighed, "Bruno is such a wonderful child. I wonder if our family has the fortune to have him as our son-in-law."

"He sure is, but our girl isn't bad either. Look how pure and cute Mashauva is."

"Alas, you don't know men. Men prefer hot girls."

"What? Are you saying Mashauva has no chance against other girls?"

е

Richard glanced at her and said, "Of course not! Every parent thinks their child is the best, but Bruno is us.

Do you think he will look at

hov

Mashauva the same?"

"Humph. Regardless, Mashauva is perfect. Even if she's chubby, she is still better looking than the girls out there!"

"Yes, of course, sure. I never said

she isn't. Is it necessary for you to fuss about this?" Mashauva did not know that her parents were

bickering about her. When she

noticed they were the only ones in the car, She asked out of curiosity, "Bruno, are we the only ones going?"

"What's the matter?"

"Wouldn't it be a little boring if it is just the two of us?"

To be frank, Mashauva thought it would be pretty good too if there were only the two of them.

"You're afraid you'd be bored? Don't worry. Freddy and his cousin will be coming with us too."
