My Belittled Husband Is A Billionaire

“Meeting is adjourned.” I stood up as soon as I said that.

It was already lunch, and today was also the day I promised to go out with Winter. We were about to leave this morning, but then I remember I still have a meeting so I had to tell her to just wait for me at a coffee shop.

She was staring at the window, obviously getting bored as I stepped inside the coffee shop.

“I apologize for making you wait.”

A huge smile appeared on her face upon seeing me. “Matthew!”

“So, where do you want us to go first?”

“Hmm… Well, I have searched for places we could go and these are what came out,” she said, then she showed me her phone. She really did search so many tourist spots that I don’t even know how are we going to go to every single one of them.

I chose a place that was near where we were. “Let’s go here first.”

“Huh? The river park?”

“Yeah.”

She nodded her head and smiled. “Alright. That’s actually the first one on my list. It says there that they even have a field of tulips where we could take some pictures as a remembrance.”

After that, we left that coffee shop and drove off to our first spot.

“You know what? I actually got surprised when Elisse told me she couldn’t go with me. I mean, she loves sticking to me, right?” she started speaking out of nowhere.

“You’re right. But I think she’s more dedicated to her studies now than anything else. I could even see her studying late at night. She doesn’t want to disappoint us, especially you since you are the one who took her in. She wants to do her best to make you proud.”

Winter smiled. “That kid, really. She doesn’t have to be the best in the class to make me proud of her. Being such a good kid is already enough for me to be proud. And besides, my life has never been the same ever since she came. Ever since the two of you came into my life.”

I glanced at her, and I got surprised when I caught her staring back at me with a smile on her face. I immediately looked away and focused on the road instead. It only took us a few minutes to go to the river park. As soon as I parked the car, Winter stepped out, so I followed her.

“Wow! What a beautiful park it is!”

“You’re right.”

The park was floating on a river, which is why it was named a river park. There were lots of people, most tourists taking photos of the beautiful scenery. Vendors scattered everywhere, and there were even couples riding bicycles together. As what was said on Winter’s phone, in order for us to see the field of tulips, we need to ride a boat.

“Matthew, let’s try the tandem bike!” Winter cooed, then she grabbed my hand and dragged me to the shop where we could ride a tandem bike.

“Do you know how to ride a bike?” I asked her.

She nodded her head. “Of course, I do! You know, knowing every skill is a requirement for celebrities like me. We play different roles that have different skills. I can’t get stuck possessing just one. How about you? Don’t tell me you don’t know how to ride a bike?”

I could feel heat invading my whole face as I looked away from her. “I didn’t have much time to learn how to ride a bike.”

“What kind of poor man are you? Doesn’t even know how to ride a bike? But you do know how to drive a car, you must be a rich man.”

“L-Lets not ride a bike.”

“No! Let’s do it! I’ll be the captain! All that you have to do is pedal and trust me.”

“But-

“Don’t worry, I won’t let you get hurt.”

In the end, I had no choice but to agree to ride a bike with her.

“All you have to do is to pedal as much as you can, okay? I’ll also pedal with you and I’ll control the steering.” Winter explained to me.

I just nodded my head before finally riding the bike with her. I was able to learn how to drive a car at 16, but Dad never taught me how to ride a bike, although Tim knows how to do it. Also, I didn’t get to learn it because I was too focused on studying and managing our company. I could only remember Belle riding a bike while I was just watching her.

“Go on, Matthew, pedal!”

“H-How do I do that?”

“Just press both of your feet to those pedals. Don’t worry, we won’t fall.” she kept on reminding me as we started moving.

It wasn’t that hard since we were both riding it and all I had to do was to pedal.

“Now, let’s go much faster!”

“What?”

“Come on, Matthew! You can do it!”

I took a deep breath and started to pedal at a faster pace. My heart kept on beating fast, but as I get used to it, I became calmer. It was as if we were already flying while seeing the beautiful view of the river surrounding us and the people passing by looking at us with smiles on their faces.

“It’s so beautiful here!” Winter suddenly screamed as she put both of her hands in the air.

“Winter…”

I was about to tell her about the steering, but I changed my mind and just kept on pedaling. I just found myself smiling while looking at her.

I never thought it would be such suspense to ride a bike with someone.

“I love my life!!” Winter continues screaming as if we were the only ones in that place. “I like you so much, Matthew!! I like you a lot!”

I almost stopped upon hearing that.
