"Boss, there is a female officer who wants to see you urgently, but she hasn't got an appointment. Do you want to see her or not?" Adams smiled. His bright eyes were brilliant with delight.
"Who is she?" Edward raised his head to look at his assistant. He couldn't recall knowing any female military personnel from his past. "What does she want?" He said as he focused on the papers again.
"She didn't say anything but she wants to see you immediately." Adams grinned at his boss teasingly.
"Really? She must be very confident to demand to see me with such short notice. Let her come in." Edward started to become curious about this woman.
The female officer whose name is Daisy Rowland, was a little nervous as she tried to pacify herself. She was not sure whether he still remembered her or not. She was already nervously rubbing her palms together as she waited for the CEO. Nervous as she was, Daisy never forgot the words that he shouted to her on their wedding night.
"You won't have me even if you married me. You are just my wife as stated on a piece of paper. My heart and my love will never belong to you. You drugged me in order to have sex with me. How dare you! I promise I'll never let such a thing happen again!" The man said angrily.
He left with the sound of slamming doors. Daisy felt completely lost and embarrassed at the same time as she didn't know anything about giving drugs. She just remembered that she slept in his arms without any clothes, body aching. The man accused her of these things she knew nothing about. What happened then was unclear in her thoughts.
What happened that night was too blurry for her. She could only remember feeling hot and helpless, unable to move. Maybe she was drugged too. Over the past six years, Daisy had to deal with hearing gossips and rumors about Edward including his affairs with his many girlfriends and female stars. Worst, she would hear from the news whom he was dating or sleeping with.
Despite all these, she never contacted him. His words were forever stuck in her head, she could not forget when he said that she was only a nominal wife. Whatever happened to him was none of her business. Actually, it seemed as if he had already forgotten her for a long time. She would not find him if there was no unexpected situation like this one. Both of them were victims of their family interests. It seemed that this marriage had a price to pay.
"Mommy, you're hurting me." The little boy interrupted his mommy's thoughts as he tried to squirm out from the tight grip of his mommy's hand. Daisy got lost in her thoughts for a while and didn't realize she held her boy's hand too tightly.
"I'm sorry, Justin. I was thinking about something that happened before." She squatted in front of the boy and whispered to him. This little boy was her son. She never thought that she would get pregnant after that night. Thanks to his genes and excellent skills, she now had this charming baby boy. Justin was Daisy's life and she would not know what to do if she ever lost this boy.
"It's all right, I'm fine, mommy. What's wrong? Is it my Daddy? Did he refuse to meet us?" Justin asked with a soft voice. He looked at his mommy with bright eyes.
"No, honey, your daddy is a little busy so we will wait here until he is ready." She explained patiently. She hid nothing from her son about his father. Although he always asked why daddy does not live with them, he never really asked his mommy to find him.
"Madam, our boss is waiting for you." The staff member treated her with respect. She thought that there was something so familiar with the boy. But she couldn't remember whether she had seen him before.
"OK, thank you!" Daisy politely replied. Then she quietly left. She looked very serious and stern wearing army uniform but she also looked even more charming in it.
She could hardly hold back her excitement. Over the past six years, she tried to pacify her feelings and gave up on this relationship, however, she still felt nervous whenever she would see Edward.
She was getting everyone's attention because people had never seen a female officer in this building. Dressy celebrities and famous female stars were regulars.
"Madam, this way please." Edward's secretary ushered her in. Daisy was evidently nervous as little beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She clenched her hands tightly while she held her son's hand. Justin felt his mommy's emotions, he didn't remind her although he felt the pain as his mommy tightly held on his tiny hand. He had the same feeling as his mommy. He was not sure if his daddy, the man he always saw on the Internet, loved him too.
The secretary knocked on the door and a deep voice answered,"Come in." Daisy initially thought that she would panic if she heard this deep, familiar voice. Much to her disbelief, she was unexpectedly calm but she still tried her best to not look intimidated by the man in front of her. Edward looked at her with a straight face. He thought that Daisy looked stiff and pale but definitely looked every inch a charming lady.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but I can't find better ways. Please take care of my son for 3 months. I will pick him up as soon as I finish my mission." Daisy said as a matter of fact. She uttered these words without looking at him.
"Wait a minute, Who are you? What are you talking about?" Edward was so confused thinking why he would take care of a little boy whom he did not even know. He noticed the woman in front of him could not look him in the eye. He was still so confused.
Although Daisy didn't really expect him to remember her, she was still hurt that Edward did not even have a clue. She remained still and handed him a marriage license.
"I will answer all your questions when I come back, but I'm in a hurry right now." She explained. Before she left, her mobile phone rang with a loud military song that echoed throughout the big office.
She picked up the phone quickly. "Hello, Mark. I know. I will be back soon. You can contact the army to get their location." She hung up the phone. Her words were firm and clear as much as her feelings.
Edward froze for an instant. 'Why? Why was this woman ignoring me? No one can resist my charm, am I not that attractive?' he thought to himself.
"Justin, I should go now. Please behave and do not give your daddy a hard time." Daisy gently touched her son's face. Her son's nanny resigned at a time when she needed to go for her military training at the army. She could not find someone to look after her son in a short time. Otherwise, she would not have sent the boy to his daddy.
Justin looked at his mommy and wanted to say something to comfort her. "Mommy, don't worry! I will be a good boy." He replied with a sweet smile. But Justin was up to something. He already made a plan to teach his daddy how to be a good husband.
After saying goodbye to her son. Daisy ran out quickly without even waiting for Edward to respond. Edward still was not able to recover from the shock that the boy was his son. He only stared at the marriage license on the table.
"Daisy Rowland," he murmured. She was the woman who was married to him for six years. She was the wife that he never missed. She came and went, just like the wind, leaving the little boy with him.
Edward sat still on his chair as he watched the little boy in front of him. His little face resembling his own had the calmness beyond his years and the little dark eyes looked coldly at him as if he was about to see something from him.He would not take action before his opponent did. Justin grew up in the army. All he was exposed to were military related things, so he knew this rule well. This was his father. Was he looking at him this way because he was stunned or was it that he just didn't like his existence?"Little guy, what's your name?" Edward initiated as he squatted next to Justin and whispered. So was this his son? It should be! Otherwise, that woman wouldn't have brought him here."I'm not little guy. I have my own name." Justin looked annoyingly at the man in front of him."Well. What's your name?" Edward smiled playfully. "Justin Michaels." The little boy looked at him in such a way that Edward would feel embarrassed. The little guy's arrogant expression was so cute.'J
OK. It seemed that it was his fault. But how could he have known that he would have a son in only one night? So maybe, it didn't seem to be all his fault. He hadn't known about Justin before now."Little boy, I didn't know you were there, so I was not with you," Edward explained weakly.'Damn it!' When did he need to care about other's opinion on his behavior?"Would you have been with us if you knew?" Justin tilted his head and asked. He wanted to see his daddy defend himself. He never asked her mommy to find daddy for him, because he often saw mommy look at his daddy's photos in the newspaper for one hour or two, lost in thought. Sometimes her eyes were red. He did not understand the adults' world, but he could see that his mommy liked his daddy. Otherwise, she would not have told him that the man who often appeared in newspapers and magazines was his daddy. His mommy also told him not to hate his daddy and the reason why they did not live together was that they had a misunderstandi
Edward has always boasted about himself. Justin looked at his daddy's red sports car and couldn't help rolling his eyes, 'Why couldn't this man keep a lower profile?', he thought his car shined in bright red, like his own gorgeous appearance. His daddy was a totally different person than his low-key mommy. No wonder that, so far these two people hadn't lived together.Edward's bodyguard opened the car door, Edward put Justin into the car and fastened the seat belt for him. It seemed that this was not the first time for him to do such a thing."Do not follow me, I'll drive by myself, " Edward ordered coolly while keeping his eyes on the little boy."Master, please let me follow you!", Luke requested in a low voice. His life was destined to protect his master. He had trained himself extremely well to do this job. He knew there were many people who were eyeing his master. He needed to be very careful with each step."Well, Follow me if you wish!" Edward didn't disappoint him. He knew Lu
They arrived at the company early. Justin was listening to their conversations silently. He didn't comment but he was carefully following every single word they uttered."Sweetie, why don't you go home with Uncle Luke. I have a meeting tonight. I will come back later." 'What kind of meeting could it be? Hmm!' thought the little boy. The truth was Edward just wanted to meet the beautiful ladies. But Edward better be careful and he shouldn't regard him as a kid just because he was five years old. He had secretly determined that he would get him back for his mommy. So he would be beside him all the time, defending his mommy's position."No, I don't want to go back, I haven't gotten my laptop yet." Justin found an excuse to stay with him."Why don't you want to go back? I can call my secretary to get the laptop for you right now." Edward was a little annoyed by him."Anyway, I don't want to go back yet. Since my mommy brought me to you, you can't just leave me behind." Jesus, that was too
Leonard's house was located in the famous scenic area of S City. Lloyd liked the quiet environment, so it was the best place for him. The enterprise of the family was one of the best in S City. It was not as big as FX International Group, but it was also a big enterprise in general. Especially after Duke, Lloyd's son, was on power, their enterprise got bigger and kept growing. So the ability of the new homeowner of Leonards family was not to be underestimated.At seven o 'clock in the evening, the normally quiet house of Leonard became very lively. All kinds of fancy cars, beautiful men and women all appeared here at once. It seemed that there were a lot of people who gave a face to Lloyd.Duke shuttled through the crowd and looked at the door from time to time. 'Shit! Edward was late again. I won't let him go easily later.' Duke thought to himself.Duke who was as handsome as Edward was also kind of wealthy. Tonight he wore a well-cut silver suit with a simple design. The sharp lines
A woman with a good figure showed up just after Duke left. She was very beautiful, her eyebrows were naturally curved without being penciled, and the lips were red without being rouged. She was such a goddess that attracted every man's attention once she appeared. Now the goddess with a delicate face was looking around for a familiar figure with her beautiful eyes. Finally she saw the person she was looking for and smiled even sweeter, making the other men take a deep breath. This woman was really a stunner!However, even though they were tempted by the beautiful woman, nobody dared to talk with her. After all, everyone knew that she was Mr. Edward's lover. Yes, this woman is Jessica. No matter how many girlfriends Mr. Edward had before, he never broke up with her. Therefore, she must be special to the boss. This fact made Jessica feel a little smug. It seemed that she would be Mrs. Edward in the future."Edward." Jessica fell into Edward's arms naturally. At the same time, she proudl
The car had just driven into Edward's grand villa. Before it stopped steadily, a pleasant ringtone came playing. It was a beautiful military song. Edward was a little bit helpless. When was he ever so close to the military?Justin smiled happily when he heard the ringtone. It was a special ring tone assigned to his mum. He quickly took out his cell phone from the small bag which he had brought with him."Mommy, have you arrived yet?" Edward was slightly stunned and he pricked up his ears as soon as he heard the word "mommy"."I've been here for a while. How are you doing today? Did you behave well?" Her cold and clear voice came from the other side. It sounded a little tired, perhaps because of the long trip."Mommy, I listen to my daddy all the time", Justin assured her. "Are you tired?" Justin had always been obedient in front of his mommy. He also heard the slight weariness in his mummy's voice."It's all right. It's just that it's uncomfortably hot here." Daisy buried herself deep
It was a brand new day. The morning of the Michaels family was undoubtedly busy. Mrs. Wendy had people prepare more than 20 kinds of breakfast due to the coming of the new master whose taste she did not know, which obviously complicated everything up.Justin was excited today because last night Edward said that he would send him to kindergarten in person. He wanted those who said that he had no daddy to know that he did have a daddy. Therefore he had a happy time during the breakfast and finished eating quickly. Seeing this, Edward wondered what the little boy was thinking about."Hurry up, daddy. We are gonna be late." There must be something fishy behind this, Edward thought. He now understood that this little boy would only call him 'daddy' with his sweet voice when he had a trick on him. He'd like to know what was going on next.Edward raised his hand and looked at his expensive watch. It was only seven o'clock, why was he so anxious! He ignored him and continued to eat his breakf
Edward drove back to FX International Group angrily. When his staff saw him, they all made a conscious effort to avoid him because they didn't want to be his next cannon fodder."Let Aaron come see me at once, " ordered Mr. CEO. He slammed the door with a frozen look on his face. His intensity scared the group of secretaries as they wondered what happened to their boss.Edward loosened his tie a little to release his tension. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he would make the wicked woman die in a miserable way. How dare she say his son was a bastard!"Boss, were you looking for me?" Aaron tidied up his messy clothes. He was told by the executive secretary, Anna that a commotion happened that morning."Contact the best nearby kindergartens now, I will have to transfer to another school."'Those in Justin's kindergarten are a low-class group of people!' He angrily thought. He didn't want his son to stay there for a day. His woman was regarded as a bitch, and their son became a bast
