Chapter 214 Ophe's Background
Joe's questions also reflected his attitude toward Ophe, with no discrimination or disdain.
He was not asking how Finnegan became interested in Ophe but rather how Ophe became interested in Finnegan, whom these individuals perceived as cold and boring.
In their minds, Finnegan was seen as a man who didn't understand romance. Even if he was rich, wouldn't he be uninteresting in relationships between men and women?
He was that boring.
Ophe couldn't help but smile when she heard Joe's evaluation of Finnegan. He was a kindred spirit, as she had also thought of Finnegan as an ice before.
Ophe looked at Finnegan with some shyness and said, "Actually, he's quite adorable, not cold at all."
Everyone present was shocked to hear the word "adorable." How could this word, so gentle and filled with cuteness, be used to describe Finnegan?
There was absolutely nothing cute about Finnegan, not even a little bit.
Even Dovie laughed and said, "Ophe, it's the first time someone has used the word adorable to describe Little Finnegan. He usually has a stoic face, but he was really cute when he was a child. When he was one year old, he was chubby. I even held him."
The Parks and Abbott Families had a close relationship, so it was normal for Dovie to hold Finnegan.
Joe was curious and asked, "Mrs. Abbott’s, how is CEO Finnegan adorable in private?"
CEO Mark, a big e-commerce tycoon, also gossiped, "I can't believe it. CEO Finnegan has this side to him. Mrs. Abbott’s, who pursued whom?"
Even these big shots, who were usually serious on TV or in financial newspapers, were gossiping now.
CEO Walker, a real estate tycoon, also said, "It looks like CEO Finnegan pursued Mrs. Abbott’s."
Finnegan hugged Ophe and smiled, saying, "My wife is shy, so don't ask her. I'll say it. I pursued her, and I proposed to her. After we set the wedding date, I'll send invitations to everyone."
Finnegan personally admitted it, and this was definitely big news.
And from that moment, Finnegan gained the title of a doting husband.
Finnegan's protection of Ophe couldn't have been more obvious.
He used to be cold as ice, but now there was a smile on his face, and everyone could see this change.
Throughout the dinner, no one talked about business matters. Instead, they spoke of their children at home, discussing which child was naughty and how their children were doing in exams.
From the birth of their children to their schooling, these men had all kinds of discussions, openly and secretly imparting their experiences to Finnegan, who was soon to be a father.
Finnegan was also very interested and asked more questions about parenting.
Ophe was a little surprised. Were these big shots really talking about normal family matters during their private dinner? It felt so down-to-earth.
When a group of gentlemen sat together and talked about family matters, it meant that no matter how powerful they were outside, their hearts were with their families.
As Finnegan listened to everyone chatting, he naturally took care of Ophe, serving her food or handing her tissues effortlessly and naturally, as if he did it regularly.
Dovie handed Ophe a bowl of soup and said, "Drink some of this, and it'll make you feel better."
"Thank you, Dovie," Ophe replied, suddenly changing her address, which made her feel a bit uncomfortable.
Seeing how kind Dovie was to Ophe, Natalie couldn't help but frown, a bad premonition bubbling inside her.
Natalie's mind came up with speculation when she first saw Ophe, an involuntary thought that Ophe was the child she had stolen years ago—Dovie's biological daughter.
Ophe's eyes were similar to Dovie's; even their appearances were somewhat similar.
Natalie clearly remembered that Dovie's daughter had a green birthmark on her waist shaped like a moon.
Natalie stole glances at Ophe's waist several times, but she couldn't see anything through her clothes, yet she couldn't help but take another look.
