Chapter 523
His eyes were still shut when he responded like he was half-awake. "K..."
Summer then rushed to the bathroom and freshened u p before proceeding to make breakfast. When
she was almost done with the soup, she headed back to the bedroom.
On the bed were two sleepy people who had no intention of waking up. They were very deep in their
sleep. Mark was already in a different position with Charlotte sleeping in his arms. Their faces looked
rxed and sweet.
Even though she was angry, she found it hrious. Mark had just responded to her not long ago, but
look a t him now...
She walked over and carried Charlotte away from him. She then patted his back softly and said, "Hurry
u p. Wake up, you''re alreadyte!”
"Five more minutes. Let me sleep for five more minutes..." His deep and hoarse voice was coated with
drowsiness. Marky still on the bed as if he was exhausted, but it also looked like he was just being
stubborn.
Charlotte was also still in her dreand. Her eyes
remained unfocused when she rubbed them as she yawned. "Daddy staying in bed, daddy shameful."
"Can you hear your daughter mocking you? Wake up now."
"Daddy shameful. Daddy sleeping. Daddyzy pig..." Charlotte started singing as she yed along with
Summer. She was dancing too, shaking her butt from left to right.
Suddenly, Mark jumped up and pulled both of them onto the bed before he tickled them with his slim
fingers.
Mark was on top of them, and Charlotte was sandwiched between him and Summer. Every part that
Mark tickled itched, making Summer curl up and burst intoughter. Mark did not put his whole weight
on them. He was supporting his body with his muscr legs and arm in a crouching position, while
Summer was between his limbs.
Theirughter never stopped. Nheless, Summer pushed him away after some time as she sat up.
"Look at the time now, and you''re still goofing around."

It was already past nine. Mark nced at the clock and got dressed. "Since it''s already thiste, I
should just go back to work in the afternoon...”
Summer red at him. ‘It''s his fault for sleeping in and he still has the audacity to say it so lightly!''
Mark was then reminded of the important international meeting he had to attend in the morning. His
gaze shifted as he dialed Harry''s number. "I caught the flu so I can''t be at work this morning. Shift the
meeting to three this afternoon.”
Charlotte blinked her dark eyes a few times before she took Summer’s phone and quickly passed it to
Mark." Daddy, tell the teachers I got the flu from you and I can only go to school in the afternoon too."
"You''re so quick-witted..." Mark raised his brows as he smiled at her. ''My daughter sure is smart.''
Looking at the unproductive duo before her, Summer felt a little annoyed as she said, "Look at you two,
one lied without even blinking and the other followed like a monkey. You should set a good example
and not teach her these things!"
Mark smirked as he bent down and pecked her on her cherry lips. He raised his brows cheekily and
carried Charlotte to the bathroom.
Summer was serving breakfast in the living room, but she could still hear the father and daughter
ying around in the bathroom. She shook her head in defeat.
In the end, Summer took leave and skipped work. She followed in his footsteps and told a lie.
''He should never stay for the night anymore. They would all bete in the morning as they would sleep
veryte. How would they be able to wake up on time?’
The rain was falling outside, washing away the dirt on the window. Three of them had the time of their
lives i n the living room as theyughed and chatted away.
In the afternoon, Mark drove his ck Lexus and dropped Charlotte off at school before he sent
Summer to work. Just as he was about to head to his office, his phone rang. Yvette was calling him.
His eyes were still shut when he responded like he was half-awake. "K..."
