Talent for Doting

THIS IS IMPORTANT➡ Hi, lesson101 here. So I had made I huge typing mistake in the previous chapter and I would like to clarify it here. Daniella Sullen is at the mental facility and I assure you she had no way of getting out of there. So I would like to clarify to all readers that in the previous chapter on the 12th paragraph which I already changed, before, instead of typing Veronica Chime's name, I don't know what got into me and typed Daniella instead. The woman that Veronica was talking with is not Daniella. I hope you are not confused anymore or upset about this. I apologize for being so incompetent.

"So, When you said you know a place, it's this one?" Daniel asked unimpressed cradling Luangmin on his arms as he stepped outside of the car and into the receiving area of the building's familiar structure. Daniel had been in the place with the Alpha a year ago for a date and now, they're back for the second time. Apparently, the Alpha mentioned during their ride on the way, the place was supposed to have the most delicious cheesecakes in the city.

"Yes, presumably they have the most delicious desserts in the city. According to the site that I've read." Laotian replied with an assuring smile that Daniel only responded with a happy giggle, he can't imagine the Alpha going through the internet reading about places that serve good desserts.

However, in actuality, when Laotian noticed that his adored wife liked eating sweet desserts especially cheesecakes, he quickly searched for a place he could take his beloved one day. He just didn't expect he would soon be using this knowledge. He's glad he took the initiative.

"Okay, I trust you. But I will be the judge if it truly is." Daniel replied with another giggle accepting Laotian's help, he handed Luangmin to him and soon they started trailing their way into the building. 

It was supposed to be a busy day for the restaurant as always especially in rush hours, almost no table was available for walked-in customers or late reservations but after earlier today, more or less an hour or so when Mo Laotian, the eldest heir to the most prominent and elite household in the country, personally contacted them for a last-minute reservation.

It was early in the afternoon but almost as though they were not packed, the reservation clerk didn't dare hesitate and instantly booked the Alpha the table he asked for. If it was someone not important, the restaurant manager would have scolded for her actions but because it was Mo Laotian, she was praised and even promised double pay for the rest of her shift today.

The restaurant was located on the second floor of the building as it was connected to a 4-star hotel, it's a semi-fine dining type and so all customers in the room were in black-tie dress code. Similarly, Laotian was also in his cream-colored double-breasted wide peak suit, paired with a navy-blue tie and black derby shoe. On his arms was Mo Luangmin in his casual white long sleeves and black pants and shoes, his semi-long dark wavy hair was tied neatly into a cute man bun. His cute and adorable but similarly domineering figures matched with his father's handsome and enigmatic presence.

Meanwhile, the father and son completely contrasted Daniel's delicate and warm features. His alabaster skin made him the perfect image of a white lotus. With his pure white flowy top, it was wide on the collar side that showed his unblemished neck and shoulders. The dress was paired with black pants and customized fury, bunny-like sandals that helped his blood circulation at bay. Overall, His seemingly pale complexion made him look like he was glowing from the inside. 

The second the couple walked in, the receptionist who was expecting them flashed a huge and welcoming smile as she greeted the visitors. "Afternoon sirs, please this way to your table." She simply welcomed. It was only a second that her eyes both landed to the couple and their son before she bowed briefly and executed her task, yet she could not help but gasp; enthralled at the beauties in front of her.

It was not only her as a collection of startled gasps emanated in the room as they viewed them walking in.

It was not too long ago since the two revealed their marriage and soon after the grand wedding when this attendant was lucky enough to welcome the two for the first time in the restaurant a year ago and now, for the second time. The last time the receptionist had seen the two up close, she was already so mesmerized by their elite existence and now they have brought their son.

Surely, the reputation of their restaurant will again skyrocket the moment this news comes out.

"Thank you," Daniel replied with a smile, as they followed the receptionist to their table. By now, even though Daniel didn't like places with too many people, he was okay with restaurants like this one. He could still notice those occasional stares from the other customers but Daniel was now used to it by a certain level. After all, for the last years, Mo Laotian had made it a habit to shower him with so many praises that he could not deny that it boosted his self-confidence. 

His insecurities from his teenage years especially the times when he stayed with the Sullens and had made a huge impact on his already timid personality; for the past years that he had been married to Laotian, his confidence had improved greatly.

"Your food will arrive shortly," The receptionist mentioned and Daniel had his eyes wide as he glanced at Laotian. They have not ordered yet since they had just arrived but their food was already coming? Although this was not uncommon with their habitual date, today was a last-minute decision so Daniel didn't expect, even a reservation.

And besides, they were only there to eat desserts.

"I've already ordered when I called." Laotian simply explained, he subconsciously kissed Daniel's temples when they finally settled in their seats next to each other. Little Luangmin also crawled back into Daniel's lap which Laotian permitted since they were sitting.

"Laotian, you're so diligent," Daniel commented with a slight giggle.

"Well, I wanted you to forgive me quickly," Laotian replied affectionately reminding Daniel that he was supposed to be upset with the Alpha, that is why he brought him out to eat desserts. As Daniel remembered, his lips instantly pouted and puffs his cheeks in hopes he would somehow look annoyed this way since he completely forgot that he was to be upset.

But of course, this act only made him look more adorable. Other customers who had been observing the two since they've arrived saw this and they could not help but smile warmly. With an equally adorable baby now sitting on his lap, all of them had been blessed enough to witness the cuteness overload scene.

It was widely spread that Mo Laotian adored and doted his Omega wife, Daniel Mo, so much that he named the Mo Empire's now two years under construction Mo towers as 'mon amour'  which was literally translated as 'My Love'.

The 'mon amour'  Mo Towers is a 1,168 ft hotel and fine dining restaurant building with 500 rooms spread over 75 floors and a number of facilities including five restaurants and a pool on top of its parking garage building. The 'mon amour'  hotel is although under the company Mo Empire, the legal rights of its ownership are reserved only to Daniel Mo. 

If by this means Mo Laotian doesn't dote his wife, then people wouldn't know what does it mean to be doted on. The Alpha seemed to have a talent with it comes to doting. And today, people further understood why.

If they were Mo Laotian himself, surely with Daniel Mo as their wife, there was no doubt they would also dote on him.

"Good because I am still upset. You promised you wouldn't ask me anymore," Daniel said maintaining his terrible act. Laotian chuckled seeing this but he humored him and ride on his act.

"And that's why I should always be diligent, so my beloved wife won't get upset with me," Laotian replied affectionately. Daniel continued to pout with his puffy cheeks until finally, their food arrived, and almost immediately, his expression turned delighted seeing his favorite food being served in front of him. Daniel excitedly swayed little Luangmin as he thanked the stewards.

"Please enjoy your dessert sirs," one of the stewards said after the sweets were neatly arranged on the table. The utensils that had been already there before they arrived was filled with the necessary course. 

The empty glass that was empty earlier was filled with a non-alcoholic maroon liquid that's apparently, one of the stewards mentioned, goes well with the cheesecake. Similarly, his plate was now also replaced with a saucer plate, and on it is a slice of his favorite plain vanilla cheesecake. There were also more types of cheesecake on the table for Daniel to choose from. And he could not help but instantly salivate as he eyed them.

Laotian on the other hand, only had his wine glass poured in with red wine before its bottle was left for his disposal a few centimeters next to it.

*clears throat* "Luangmin and I will taste it now, I will forgive you depending on the taste." Daniel said and settled Luangmin on his lap. The little boy was even more excited than him to eat so without delaying more, Daniel took the small fork and quickly cut aside a small portion from the creamy texture before he brought it directly to Luangmin's drooling mouth and then cut a portion for himself as well.

Unknown to him, the chef who baked the cheesecake put his hands together as if praying while he watched the Omega taste his creation. He was a professional patissier and he had lots of experience. He studied in the best culinary school in the country and graduated as one of the tops of his batch but abiding at how the Omega would react to his dish, he still felt restless. If the Omega liked his dish, it would be a great honor and turning point to his growing career. 

The Chef continued to look at the Omega full of hope, he started sweating in anticipation. All his anxiety only vanished when Daniel had his lips turned into a soft smile, Mo Luangmin also had a huge smile on his cute and adorable face.

"Yum! Yum!" Luangmin babbled excitedly. Daniel agreed to his little ball of joy and quickly gave each of them another batch. 

"You like it?" Laotian asked finally after Daniel briefly forgot about him.

"Yeah, you have been spared," Daniel said and then getting back to his favorite and also Luangmin's favorite dessert. However, heading his wife, Laotian raised his eyebrow in inquiry.

"I wonder what I've been spared for?" Laotians asked, he took his glass of wine and started motioning it in circular. Daniel was still busy on his cake after switching to the blueberry cheesecake despite not finished with the plain vanilla when he heard the Alpha asked. He stopped the movement of his fork and watched Laotian, thinking.

He was not really angry and the Alpha must have noticed it since the very beginning and just wanted to tease him.

After thinking, Daniel thought of teasing the Alpha back. He didn't feel like admitting today so Daniel quickly thought of an excuse. He stared straight back to the Alpha's dark and mischievous orbs while he was about to drink his wine.

"hmm, I was planning to no naughty bits for a month rule," Daniel said with a playful smile, he burst into a gentle laugh when the Alpha almost choked on his beverage hearing Daniel was planning to have a no sex rule for a good one month if he didn't like the cheesecake. 

*coughs* "Thank goodness, I was spared!" Laotian replied with a slight growl, he puts down his wine glass and scooted closer to the Omega and then wrapped his strong arms around him and their son. It took all his control not to bury his teeth against Daniel's exposed collar bone. His time with the Omega had already greatly decreased, he absolutely does not want such a rule.

With this on his mind, Laotian was already thinking of rewarding the Chef for saving him from this ridiculous rule.

"Are you scared to upset me now?" Daniel asked victoriously, and without a doubt, Laotian possessively nuzzled Daniel's silky hair and quickly nodded like a defeated puppy. Just thinking of not being able to be with Daniel for a month made his head ache in disapproval.

Meanwhile, all the people who had witnessed and overheard their conversation had their mouths wide open. They already know the Alpha adored his wife to a different high level, but it's still incredible to witness how his neck being completely wrapped by the Omega's little hands.

If one would guess, they would have thought the Alpha had control over his wife but the reality was actually far more, less. Who would have thought it was the opposite?
