A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 210

"Isn’t it?" Daniel raised an eyebrow, "That’s how it works on TV!"

"TV shows are poisoning your young mind! Since you’re still a kid, just watch cartoons."

“But that idea isn’t too bad!” Liam nodded and muttered to himself, “We already have a child, but she doesn’t agree. If we have another child…”

Sarah shouted, “What are you saying, he’s just a child, don’t act so childish! Oh, Samuel’s coming down!”

As she spoke, Sherry led Samuel down the stairs.

As soon as they saw their son, they stopped fighting and both rushed over. “Samuel.”

“Hi, Mr. Liam and Ms. Sarah!” Samuel greeted them politely but still held onto Sherry’s hand.

Looking at Samuel’s dependence on Sherry made Sarah feel uneasy and filled her with guilt. Sherry noted Sarah’s feelings and said, “Don’t worry, it’ll all get better over time!”

“Right!” Sarah nodded with enthusiasm.

“Come on, Samuel, let’s see what goodies Liam and Sarah brought you.”

The two boys excitedly rushed over to the snacks; after all, they were kids.

The four adults looked on with contentment as the kids played and ate in joy.

Liam looked at Samuel then at Sarah, then continued to look at Sarah as she radiated a loving, motherly look.

“Uncle, don’t your eyes hurt?” Liam didn’t notice that Daniel was standing before him with a worried look on his face, then he blinked and looked on with concern at Liam.

Liam suddenly snapped to his senses and looked at the large, bright eyes before him. He then got the feeling that these eyes looked awfully familiar.

Everyone was puzzled by Samuel’s sudden question.

“What do you mean?” Liam asked.

“You’ve been staring at Ms. Sarah without even blinking, don’t your eyes hurt?”

“Hah!” William and Sherry burst out together.

Sarah’s face immediately turned red; to think, the kids have even seen through them. She held Samuel who sat next to her and laughed with glee.

Liam wasn’t embarrassed at all; rather he beamed with confidence, “Nope, doesn’t hurt at all! I could stare forever and it won’t hurt! Once you have a girlfriend, you’ll be doing the same thing!”

Sarah’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing Liam’s words. Her eyes were wide open, and a wave of embarrassment swept over her.

“Not bad, uncle; the TV shows say, if you want to chase a girl, you gotta be tough and shameless. Looks like you got it down already! Ms. Sarah will be aunty really soon!” Samuel said in a sweet voice.

“Haha…” Sherry was about to fall over from laughing; she never knew her son could be this hilarious.

William grabbed her from behind and whispered into her hear, “Sherry, I will look at you and you only for the rest of my life!”

Sherry placed a hand over her heart to calm her beating heart, then tried to cover her happiness with a tiny hand. She turned back to look at William and their eyes met. Sherry saw that his eyes were filled with a loving gaze.

“Hah! Well, Daniel, uncle will take your word for it, hope you’re right!” Liam wishfully thought as he stole a glance at Sarah.

“I’m always right; grandpa said that virgin boys’ words are always right. Oh, are you still a virgin, uncle?” Daniel asked Liam innocently.

“Daniel, only you and Samuel are the virgins here!” William said to his son as he tried to suppress a laughter.

“Oh… I always thought that only daddies were not virgins!” Daniel shook his head, “Does uncle have a kid, too?”

His unintentional words put Liam and Sarah on the spot.

“Uncle wishes he was a virgin too, but unfortunately, I couldn’t stay that way!” Liam replied innocently, “Because uncle wanted to be a daddy too much!”

“Then just have a kid with aunty! It’s so easy!”

“Ugh! That’s it, no more TV for him ever again!” William stood up and said, “He’s exposed to too much garbage that he shouldn’t know! Come upstairs, Liam, I have some matters to talk to you about!”

In the study.

“Will, I haven’t told my dad about Samuel yet. I was afraid that he would bring you two trouble! Besides, you haven’t found your kid yet, how could I selfishly bring Samuel away!”

William patted Liam on the shoulder, “We found my son!”

“You found him?” Liam shouted in surprise, “My god, where is he now?”

“It’s Daniel! He’s the biological son of me and Sherry. Unbelievable, isn’t it?”

“Are you sure?”

“We’ve ran tests! You have to keep this a secret!” William told Liam about all the past things Peter had done as well as his current identity.

Suddenly, a flicker of coldness was in Liam’s eyes, “I’ve always tried to be a gentleman, but this time, he’s crossed the line! I won’t let him off that easily for what he’s done! To think, he switched our babies and pretended that nothing ever happened after all these years! Damn, I am going to kill him!”

“It’s a good thing that our kids are now found!” William said calmly. He knew that Peter would start with the investment project overseas and would be forced to act soon. “The project he’s working on will reach a decision soon. I told him I’ll get back to him in the afternoon!”
