Chapter 416

Everyone around the table froze, their brains took a full minute to process Teresa’s words.

She just called Frederick a liar, this was a blow to his ego, wasn’t it?

At that moment. Chuck could feel his hands getting sweaty from the tension, almost silently sent his condolences to

Teresa.

It wasn’t for nothing that Teresa was Marguerite’s daughter! The only ones who’d dare to step on Mr. Winston’s toes

like that were these two people. No one else would even dare.

But this little princess wanting a star from the sky did put Mr. Winston in a bit of a pickle.

Even though Mr. Winston was a big-shot, he was still human. How could he possibly get a star from the sky for her?

Just as everyone was trying to figure out how to diffuse the situation, a confident male voice cut through the

silence, “I can set up a research team for you. As soon as they discover a new asteroid, we will name it after you.”

The room was silent.

Frederick’s move was unexpected!

After all, naming an asteroid was a permanent honor, internationally recognized.

Teresa was stunned by Frederick’s proposition.

Hayes’ daddy was really going to name an asteroid after her? Was he really willing to do so much for her? So, did

this mean he truly… truly cared for her?

As Teresa pondered this, a smug smile began to play on her lips, “I want the star, but there’s something else I

want!” Teresa looked at Frederick, her eyes filled with a hint of avarice.

Seeing Teresa’s happiness, Frederick’s brow softened a bit, “Go on.”

Teresa remembered the plan she had discussed with her godparents, and seized the opportunity, “My mommy is

unemployed, I want her to work at your company!”

Frederick was taken aback for a moment, then chided lightly, “Greedy!”

But Teresa scooted closer to Frederick, her chubby little hands clutching his strong arm, pleading, “I am greedy,

fine, I am greedy! Will you agree or

not?”

Frederick was resolute, “No.”

Within his means, he would do his best to give the child the world. But when it came to matters of principle, there

was no room for negotiation.

Having Marguerite work at his company? Not a chance!

Upon hearing this, Teresa immediately pushed Frederick away, her mouth pouting. “You big bad wolf! I won’t like

you anymore!”

With that, Teresa hopped off the bench, grabbed Miley’s hand and started to walk out,

“Let’s go! I don’t want to play with the big bad wolf anymore!”

For a moment, everyone looked at each other in disbelief.

Robert watched as Miley was dragged away by Teresa, completely puzzled.

“It seems this little girl really sees you as her father, otherwise why would she be so adamant about whether you

love her more, or if Marguerite does.”

Frederick thought back to the night when Teresa had asked him to admit his feelings for Marguerite, a cold smirk

appeared on his lips. “Huh, she wants me to be her stepdad!”

Robert was shocked by his words.

Hayes overheard their conversation, which got him thinking.

If his dad was to be Teresa’s stepdad, that would mean he would have to marry Teresa’s mother. In that case,

Teresa’s mom would also be his stepmom.

For some reason, Hayes really liked Marguerite.

If Marguerite became his mom, she would surely be very good to him…
