A Mistaken Night With The CEO 83| Son's escape
Once Miranda was done dressing in a pink suit and black shoes, she paired the outfit with a pink skirt and carried her black handbag. As she exited her bedroom, Oliver was standing outside the house waiting for his mother.Emily wasn't around, so Miranda locked up the house and walked to her new car. She unlocked the vehicle door and hopped inside.Oliver frowned, not wanting to use the new car Uncle Larry had given his mother. But he knew there was nothing he could do to stop his mother’s relationship with Uncle Larry. If only his father weren’t a bad man."Oliver, fasten your seat belt," Miranda said to her son as he sat in the back seat. Oliver obeyed, and soon she drove out of the residence, heading to the mall.When Miranda arrived, she entered the parking lot and parked her car. Her security personnel were surprised to see her in a new vehicle, as they were familiar with the three cars she had owned before. They smiled and greeted her happily as Miranda got out of her car with h
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 84| Meeting his son
Sabrina Jackson had been looking for an opportunity to meet with Derrick, and now that opportunity had presented itself, even though she was not allowed to see him on regular days, as Derrick's assistant was the only one permitted to meet with him in his office."Yes, what do you want?" Derrick asked as his eyes scanned Sabrina in her white shirt and black skirt; she was also wearing black shoes. Though she worked for Luis Corporation, she still looked poor and below the class of ladies Derrick Luis would admire speaking with.His face appeared stoic as he listened to her. "Sir, I'm sorry to bother you, but I think I have something that you may want to see.""What's that?" Derrick asked, sounding almost impatient with Sabrina. She noticed that he looked stressed, and she quickly unlocked her phone and showed Derrick the photo she had captured earlier—a small boy in a white top, blue jeans, and black sandals."Here it is, sir. I actually saw the small boy at the mall last week, and he
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 85| Looking for Oliver
"Hello, Mother," Derrick said, picking up his mother's call. His voice sounded hoarse and shaky as he was quite emotional about meeting his son."Derrick, where are you?" Lady Loretta asked, wanting to know if Derrick had gone to the orphanage as they had discussed.Derrick wanted to tell his mother that he had seen his son. Likewise, he would get to see Miranda, but he held himself back, knowing that she was old and he didn't want to cause her any distress."I am still at my office, Mother. I will be home soon," he said."Really? Did you go to the orphanage?" Lady Loretta asked, and Derrick replied, "Yes, Mother," still looking at his son."Did you see Miranda? I mean, is there a chance that you might see her in that orphanage?" Lady Loretta asked, and Derrick didn't know why his mother was particularly concerned about that specific orphanage."No, I didn't get to see her there, Mom, but I have some good news for you. When I get home, we will discuss it," Derrick said, and his mother

"Mike! Did you see my son? Did you allow Oliver out of this gate?" Miranda asked, feeling faint as she wondered where her son had gone.She was crying, fearing the unknown—that someone had kidnapped her son."Mike! Where's my son? You were supposed to look after the gate! How did you allow Oliver to leave here under your watch?" Miranda shouted, and Mike tried to explain."Madam, I didn't allow Oliver to leave here on his own. He saw his dad, called him, and his father arrived to see him and took him away," Mike explained, and Miranda immediately let go of Mike's shirt collar, as she had already held him by his shirt to find her son."What??" Miranda staggered backward away from Mike."My son's father?" she asked, hoping she wasn't hearing things."Yes, Madam. Your husband arrived here not too long ago, and he looked so much like Oliver. Oliver ran up to meet him and called the man 'Daddy,' and I couldn't stop him from taking Oliver away. The man wore a black suit and had bodyguards w

Derrick sat in his car on his way back home, still deep in thought as he remembered how beautiful Miranda looked."I cannot believe that was Miranda. She looks so beautiful now," he said as he gazed out the window while his chauffeur drove towards the city. Night had fallen, and the whole area was dark. Derrick also recalled how handsome his son looked. He had been a father for six years without knowing it."I could have just taken Oliver along with me, but I know he would worry about Miranda," Derrick sighed as he saw his phone ringing again. It was Nicole calling him."Hello, Derrick, where are you?" Nicole asked, and Derrick replied, "On my way home. What's the problem?""Nothing. Mom asked me to call you and see if you had arrived," she said."Okay, I will be home soon," Derrick replied, to which Nicole answered, "Okay."The phone call disconnected, and Derrick went online to glance at his social media friend list. Miranda hadn't unblocked him, and their last chat was still there.
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 88| Begging her son
Miranda went into the house and saw her son had gone into his bedroom and locked the door."Oliver! Open this door!" Miranda carefully banged on her son's room door, but Oliver wasn't pulling the door open or responding to her."Oliver, what did I do wrong to you? Why are you avoiding me in this house? Do you see why I do not want you to meet your dad? Only today that you saw him, I have no peace, and now you're behaving like him," Miranda complained, thinking of what to do to lure her son out of his room. She couldn't allow him to starve and worry about him.Oliver didn't respond, and Miranda told him, "I'm sorry, Oliver. Fine, I'm going to call your dad now for you to speak with him. Are you going to open the door for me?"The corridor was silent as Miranda stopped speaking. Emily had finished preparing dinner and wondered what was going on between Miranda and Oliver again.Emily also liked Oliver, as the little boy knew how to get his mother worried.Walking into the corridor in her
A Mistaken Night With The CEO 89| The photo
In the Luis mansion, Derrick woke up in his room and prepared for the day's work as he was going to his office. His mobile phone rang from the shelf beside his bed where he kept it. Derrick ignored his ringing phone and went into his bathroom to bathe. The time was past 7 am, and knowing he had many tasks to do, he prepared to take his bath.While bathing, Derrick remembered how Miranda now looked. As much as he desired to have her again, he remembered that he was the one who had sent her away before and told her not to return."What am I going to do now? How do I speak to her?" Derrick finished his bath in the bathroom. As he got out, he dried off his wet body and dressed up in a deep blue suit. He was going to the office and had some shareholders' meetings at noon.After dressing up, Derrick picked up his phone as he was done adjusting his necktie. He saw that Erica Harrison was the one calling him."What does she want again?" He muttered as he kept his phone away, stowing it into hi

"Let me have a look," Lady Loretta inquired as Nicole was the one holding onto Derrick's phone, staring at the little boy displayed in the picture on the phone screen.Frank and Rita returned to their chairs to sit across from Derrick while Nicole showed the photo to her mother.Lady Loretta smiled sadly as she looked at the phone screen and saw the little boy in the white top and denim jeans. He looked so handsome and resembled her late husband too."He's truly your son, Derrick. You should go and bring him. I want to see him," Lady Loretta said, as tears of joy welled up in her eyes.Derrick finished his tea and placed the cup on the table. "I will, Mom, but not today. Over the weekend," he replied, rising up to leave the dining room."Derrick," Lady Loretta called him as Derrick walked out to meet her."Mom, I already promised you that I will go see Miranda, but I have a lot of work to do today. Please, I will try and talk to her. I saw that she is already engaged to someone else, a
