Chapter 332 332: Stay At Home Dad.

Leo bathed before dinner and he asked, "So, how was you day at school?"Lily put on a thoughtful expression as Leo fed her a spoonful of sprouts, and she said, "Hmmm, that annoying guy left school. So we were all relieved, and also, today I played the Piano in front of a guest lecturer, he wanted me to be his pupil, and I told him I learned from my Baba. He might try to reach you, don't agree, I don't want to learn from him."

Although Leo himself had no thoughts of letting his daughter go to someone else for tutelage, he still asked, "Oh, why so?"

Lily narrowed her eyes to look at him and said, "Because I didn't like his beard. Hmph, meanie!"

Leo chuckled as he teased the little girl a bit before feeding her and then went on to play piano for Snow. These days she liked to listen the music as it calmed her mood, and it was also mentioned by Fragrance that if the mother had a calmer mood during the pregnancy, the child would inherit that mood innately.

Lily wasn't present when this happened or she would have raised a question that left everyone speechless. After all, she was born in severe distress. Why was she not prone to stress and stuff. Well, that was because Snow was a careful and good parent.

...

The next day began and today the breakfast menu was shuffled again, Leo had no intention of letting Claire cook for the people, he even invited her to sit down with them and eat. Then Anastasia took Lily to the school, and Leo went straight to the nursery, he used artistic brushes and premium paint to cover the walls and with fluid and wavy golden patterns that looked very nice.

These sort of things were suggested as attractions that helped the children, then he used a special paint that gave off glow in the dark, but instead of chemicals this thing was made of pure natural items. A small bottle of this paint costed more than anything he had placed inside this room till now.

He used a step stair and covered the ceiling with stars, he took care of the size and the gap, he also mixed this paint with various pigments to make the ceiling look like it was the actual cosmos. Thinking about it, he picked up the supplies, and went to Lily's room. He made the same thing on the ceiling of her room.

How could he leave his darling behind when it came to pampering and expressing love? Snow noticed this but only shook her head with a smile on her face. In the noon, he came down to take a small break and then cooked lunch. At this moment, Percie called him, and he picked, "Hello, what do you need Percie?"

Percie replied, "Ummm, Sir, I am aware that you are on vacation but we have some urgent business meetings that need your supervision."

Leo replied, "Miss Hibiscal, I am on leave, and I have assigned you complete authority to handle these things, why do you need me to come in? If I have to handle everything in person then why am I even paying you so high?"

He flipped on temper because, firstly, he was busy cooking, secondly, he liked to stay home and just mind his house, thirdly, he really didn't want to work at the moment, and he didn't want to go out and face the enemies. It was not because his attributes have been halved, but he was trying to rehabilitate himself.

These past few months, his aggression has increased so much that he didn't even think twice before waltzing over to deal with Matilda.

On the other side, Percie said, "Sir, I am not asking you to come and handle this, but we will need to hold a signing ceremony, we just settled a big deal with the Sawatari Group for car export in the Sakura Country."

Leo sighed and said, "For this, I am even less needed, as the CEO your signature is valid, and I can send June over to you with my seal, she will stamp on the documents and then hand the seal back to me. That's it."

Percie realized that Leo really didn't want to come over, and she sighed before agreeing. June on the other hand was happy, Leo told her to go to his office, pick up the stamp and seal the documents before sending the stamp back to his house via Kyle.

Snow smiled at his actions and said, "I am not sure about the rest but Kyle would be happy. Leo raised his brows and asked, "You know that he likes June?"

Snow nodded and replied, "They are the talk of the office, every guy had been trying to get June ever since we started the company, but the girl knew they were all silly, she prefers silent guys and Kyle is one of them."

Leo nodded and said, "Whatever, I just hope that they don't make things awkward if this didn't work out."

Snow clicked her tongue and shook her head before she said, "Do you know that Kyle used all the money he earned to buy two house units in the western suburbs? He bought them in the society project that our real estate branch started. One is for his parents, and the other is for himself. June had also told me that she would be introducing him to her parents, so following these steps, I am sure that they will be getting married soon enough."

Leo nodded and said, "If that is the case, I would have to give them good gifts."

Snow agreed and said, "I have thought about it, how about giving them a fully paid honeymoon package?"

Leo looked at her and nodded as he said, "Okay, whatever you want, I will give them both some money in fixed deposit since Kyle have already used his savings for the apartments. How will he handle things if something bad happened? Who knows what the time holds for us?"

Snow nodded, she knew that he was really worried about such things happening out of the blues, after all, who knew that they would face the troubles they faced just last year?

After sharing some more gossip with her, Leo headed back to the nursery room, and began to deal the final touches to the paint job and at the same time, he called Axel to come over.

The latter was surprised when he found that Leo was asking him to buy some power tools for cutting wood, a nail gun and also some wood polishing oils. Leo told him that he wanted to make the cupboards and the cribe for the child on his own. The guards even asked him if he was sure to handle such things, and Leo just shooed them away.

After all this time, the guards have come to understand that their boss was not stringent on things and he would joke around about the small things if they were not about his family. After one hour, Snow looked at her husband who was standing in the backyard of the mansion looking at various wood planks and machines that were placed there, and she asked, "What are you doing? Do you even know how to use that cutter?"

Leo nodded with confidence and said, "I will show you tomorrow, for now, let us go and have lunch."

Snow sighed, and the rest of the day passed silently. Leo even spent some time making some clay decorations for the house. He made a huge Koi Fish sculpture and Snow liked it, she said that it would be placed in the Southwestern corner of the living room. The sculpture was three feet big, and it was very meticulously made. Although Leo's stats have fallen, he was still a master when it came to sculpting.

Soon, Lily came back home and then time passed in flurry. He helped Lily with her homework, before Lily told them that Miss Verse was going to test them in three basic things that a child should know how to read and write. The alphabets, the number count and finally the correct way to cross the roads.

Leo nodded, and decided to teach her, although she had already learned all this in the past, she was still revised, and then she practiced how to cross the road with Zeenat and Snow to make sure that she performs her best.

...

At night when Leo was supposed to sleep, he spent one hour in the virtual training space, and learned carpentry, he even specifically practiced on making cupboard and storage boxes for the child. After finishing these things, he would go to master the crib making procedure followed by wood carving to make something for Lily.

The morning came and Leo began to grind again, after sending Lily to the school, he stretched his body and was hugged by Snow from the side, who asked, "Are you really not missing work and anything else?"

Leo also put his arm around her and said, "Nope, stay at home dad is also very interesting."
