Doted By The Alpha

* * *

Morning came to Mo Hanlu's residence, it was just 6:30 in the morning but he was already wearing a formal suit together with his beloved wife, Ian. Hanlu was trying to lock his watch while Ian helped him with his tie; their image was of a newly married couple filled with love and affection for each other.

"Are you nervous?" Hanlu asked when Ian finished with his tie and then later also helped Hanlu with his expensive watch.

"Hmmm? Not really, why? Are you nervous?" Ian asked back, he was truly not nervous. Instead, he was actually happy and excited that he was finally in a situation where he was going to reveal to the world that Mo Hanlu was finally his, that Mo Hanlu was finally his husband. Long ago, a day like this seemed like it was just his forever dream but now, it's finally happening in reality. So how can he be nervous?

"I'm not. In any case, I'm glad this day has finally come. I'm so sick just knowing people are still thinking that I was gonna marry that actress. I won't be nervous knowing that this day, the whole world will finally know that you're mine and I'm yours." Hanlu cooed wrapping his arms around Ian's waist. Ian blushed a little and slightly pushed Hanlu in embarrassment. For the past three days, the two had especially become even closer.

This was because, despite Ian hiding the fact that he was in heat for two days and Hanlu soon finding out because of his scent, Ian was glad to know that Hanlu wasn't upset, he wasn't demanding. Instead, the Alpha took care of Ian because he was also coming in and out of his fever for the past three days. Hanlu was not insistent like his usual self and he was extremely sweet and caring. He promised he would not lay a hand on Ian, and Hanlu really didn't.

Ian never thought he could love Hanlu even more than he already did. He knew Hanlu for more than 10 years but for the last few days they've spent with each other, he learned more about Mo Hanlu's personality. He learned that the Alpha was even nicer, he was surprisingly a good father and a husband, he was quite dedicated, and true to his words. He was also sweet although most of the time he was playful and quite irritating, he was funny as always. But of course, Hanlu was also insecure, sometimes he was brave and sometimes weak; Hanlu was not perfect but honestly, that is what makes him perfect.

Ian was so touched by Hanlu that his desire to never let go intensified. He was glad he gave Hanlu another chance. And he was glad he gave himself another chance. A chance to chase his own happiness and not cower back.

"Hmmm, the same with me. I can't wait to chase away the flies around you as soon as possible." Ian teased which Hanlu quickly countered.

"Not as much as your flies, how many bugs and flies do you think I've gotten rid of all these years? I can't even count them on my fingers and toes combined." Hanlu complained which Ian quickly passed on with just a simple laugh. He was well aware of this fact and speaking of...

"Oh I remembered, go bring Officer Grey back to the City A's main station. Don't you think that kid has suffered enough?" Ian mentioned remembering his junior colleague's sudden transfer because Hanlu got jealous of him.

"Oops, I definitely forgot about him. Now that you're mine and obviously he can't take you away from me anymore, I'll gladly bring him back. I'll ask someone to quickly transfer him back." Hanlu said happily nuzzling Ian's neck. His scent was still a little strong but Hanlu was sure his wife would be safe beside him today. Ian wasn't in heat anymore and Henry told him that Ian's condition had greatly improved despite his occasional fevers; the fevers were just another reaction of Ian's body accepting their bond again.

"Good," Ian said and laughed, combing Hanlu's hair with his fingers, he let the Alpha take in his scent as they stayed in their position for a minute before Hanlu finally decided to pull away. He looked at Ian affectionately and every time he looked at the Omega's bluish-grey orbs, his heart would start pacing fast. 'Man! I love this man,' Hanlu whispered in his thoughts leaning forward to kiss Ian on his lips.

Smiling as their lips touched, Ian gladly accepted Hanlu while he closed his eyes. The rhythm on their kiss felt magical and sweet, their tongue danced in a loving manner. There was longing in their kisses, bringing them both to be breathless. And when it was finally enough, their foreheads touched, both their moist lips shifted into a loving smile. And as if they read each other's minds, they both said "I love you," in chorus bringing soft and joyful giggles from the two.

*Laughs* "Are you ready?" After the short laughing session, Hanlu finally asked caressing Ian's soft and pinkish cheeks.

"Hmmm, are you?"

"I was born ready,"

"Laotian How do you think people will take this?" Daniel asked, looking at the Entertainment news Channel waiting for Mo Hanlu's interview to start. Daniel might not have been out of his hospital room for more than a week but he knew how the news about Mo Hanlu and Veronica Chime cheating news had been a major topic in all discussions on all social media.

Many people bashed Mo Hanlu and his mysterious partner, Ian. People even resorted to boycotting Mo Empire because of this, rumors like the Empire was soon going to bankrupt surfaced here and there. The media had become boys' scouts and girls' scouts because of this news but no matter how they waited for both Mo Hanlu and Veronica Chime's opinion, both celebrities remained silent, until now.

It was just yesterday when Mo Empire's Public Relations management released a statement that the President of the Corporation, Mo Hanlu will come and clear the situation. And so early in the morning, the whole media set had crowded in the place where the conference was happening. All of them didn't expect today's revelation including the whole Mo, Sullen, and Lopez family that was now crowded in Daniel's room waiting to watch the live broadcast together.

Since this was Mo Hanlu and his own family's issue, it should be right that the Alpha handle this himself.

"They wouldn't expect it," Laotian replied monotonically as he patiently peeled the gr.a.p.es for his wife to eat. For the past days that he had been doing this, he acquired a technique where he could peel the gr.a.p.e's skin in almost one go that it hasn't been 5 seconds since he fed Daniel with one, he was already taking the next one's seed out to feed to his beloved again.

Meanwhile, seeing this especially Mo Tian Zi and the three Sullen Young Masters. All of them had their mouths open in disbelief. Mo Laotian, the domineering chairman of the Mo Empire and the wealthiest man in the country. The powerhouse of the prominent Mo Family?! Patiently peeling gr.a.p.e's skin for his sick Omega wife? If they're not seeing it now themselves, they wouldn't have believed it if someone told them. It was simply unimaginable.

The Alpha truly lived on his name as the true doting husband.

"Hmmm, that's true. I wonder what Veronica would say after this, I hope this press conference ends well," Daniel mumbled, he was nervous even though he trusts that Hanlu will handle this case perfectly.

Everyone in the room was still silent, the whole reason why they gathered here today is because after the conference Hanlu and Ian will come and visit at the hospital to announce something and at the same time Daniel and Laotian also had good news to say.

"Okay, I think it's about to start." Tian Zi suddenly said, still comfortably sitting on his chosen single chair after he checked something on his mobile phone.

"Oh, is that right?" Laura Mo replied and then looked at the TV. They were busy and weren't paying attention to the TV because Mo Luangmin suddenly had the mood to play with his Grandmas and Grandpas. This was now a rare chance so they had to grab this opportunity. It wasn't often that they could play with the young man. He was quite a snobby baby, only Daniel and his uncle Hanlu were exempted from his mood.

All of them now focused their attention on the TV and seconds later they saw Hanlu's figure on the screen with Ian Andrews and Lancel Andrews Mo. The three of them slowly trailed the way to the front while the reporters, photographers and the likes were going crazy with their cameras and microphones.

Just by looking at them going crazy, finally seeing Mo Hanlu after not being able to catch anything about the Alpha long after the news broke out about Veronica Chime being pregnant, you could tell that people were eager to know the truth.

Rumours started spreading about this not being just a simple cheating incident. That there was more to this then what was out however seeing the picture that was published three days ago, people were pretty determined that the Mo Empire couldn't hide this anymore. That this scandal will forever cause damage to the Mo Household's clean reputation and will cause a loss of billions of dollars to the Mo Empire.

Settling on the podium, the Mo Empire's PR head briefly introduced Mo Hanlu and later the Alpha stepped forward to the podium. The moment he greeted everyone with his usual smile, reporters, announcers, and the likes quickly bombard Hanlu with questions. The conference looked like a mess seeing it from the TV but thankfully, Hanlu only raised his hand, his expression turned serious and the whole conference room became silent. It's like the earlier commotion didn't just happen.

"I would like to request everyone to not cause any commotion or someone from the back will automatically request you out of the conference room." Hanlu started with a serious tone causing everyone to stay put on their seats.

"Thank you. To start this off, I would like to apologize first to everyone who had been inconvenienced with yesterday's sudden invitation. Personally, I would have preferred not to cause any misunderstanding and lead this to be a whole game of tug and war with Miss Veronica Chime's claim. I remained silent all this time hoping that my ex-lover would come around and tell the truth about this whole situation." Hanlu started confusing everyone but no one interrupted Hanlu from talking as they continued to listen.

"And then about this 'cheating scandal' that recently surfaced, everyone might have known that I have had multiple lovers but I am not one who will cheat on my wife. I patiently waited for Miss Chime but since this situation has come to this, I have no choice but to step in and correct this. I don't want people talking about me cheating on a pregnant woman with my real wife." Hanlu said with a frown and later a sigh.

"Miss Chime is not my fiancée, I cannot marry her because firstly, I already have a wife who has already given me one adorable and handsome son. I did not cheat on her with anyone. Secondly, the child she is carrying is not mine. Miss Chime and I had long broken up and even before then we were not in that kind of relationship initially." Hanlu explained earning shocked gasps from everyone. The revelation was truly not in their expectation.

They wondered why a famous inspector came along with the Alpha today and thought this scandal will lead to a police case but clearly it was not, slowly everything is getting clearer, just not the way they expected it would.

"And to prove that my words are true, I've come today with my wife and another person who will prove that Miss Chime had lied to you all." Hanlu said before he stepped backward to extend his hand to Ian. Ian smiled and bravely accepted Hanlu hand and together they stood in front of everybody.

"Inspector Ian Andrews and I had known each other since college. He had caught my heart since then. However, some of you might not have known his background; I was filled with pride and didn't accept I was in love with him. I was a college student and wasn't ready for any responsibility. I had gotten him pregnant with our son Lancel Andrews Mo who I introduced to all of you more than 3 months ago, but knowing that I was not up to become a father, we separated."

"And then 8 years later when I was finally ready, a woman from my past came between us. He was ready to leave me again but I stood my ground and begged him. Thankfully he gave me another chance. Both of us were patient with Miss Chime but this had to end. I am now a father of an 8 years old son, I wanted to catch up for the lost times. I also plan to father a little princess, please give us back our peaceful lives," Hanlu said and the whole time he was looking at Ian, the same with Ian.
