The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1958

Nobody knows a daughter like her father. Cicely remained silent, and Creighton wasn’t expecting any other answer from her. He gazed at Cicely, musing for a moment before slowly saying, “School’s starting again, you’ll be a senior, and that boy, he should be a sophomore in college now, right?”

“Yep.”

Cicely couldn’t skip senior year. No matter how hard she worked, she’d only managed to close the gap by a year. At least there were two more years of college ahead to spend time together.

“Being a young man, he shouldn’t be idling his summer away anymore.”

Creighton’s words took a moment for Cicely to understand, and she looked up at him with a puzzled expression.

“What do you mean by idling away?”d2

“He’s got a lot of responsibilities to take on in the future, he’s not a child anymore, it’s time he learned to manage the family business.”

Cicely paused, her eyes shifting, gradually lighting up with a hint of laughter. “I want in on that too.”

Creighton looked at her somewhat mockingly, “I never saw you take an interest in the family business before.”

Cicely nodded unabashedly, “Yeah, I’m only interested in Seth.”

“Shameless.”

Creighton dialed Patty’s number. He never quite understood why Patty had always been reluctant to let Seth get involved in the business. So he didn’t beat around the bush. If Patty agreed, he was sure there would be no issue on Seth’s end.

“Let Seth start getting involved with the business this summer?”

“Not to manage it, just to get his feet wet. I don’t believe even the brightest person could manage a company right off the bat. Running a business is serious, and it’s time he learned.”

Patty fell silent for a moment, “Can’t it wait another two years? At his age, he should be carefree, enjoying college life.”

Creighton chuckled, “I don’t know what you’re really thinking, but that can’t be the real reason. Seth, at his age, doesn’t have the luxury to talk about carefree college experiences anymore. If this continues…”

Creighton was blunt, “The kid will be ruined.”
