Leo sees Conan frown and knows he isn’t satisfied with the food. He doesn’t eat junk food.
His secretary is not careful enough. Outsiders will think he can’t manage subordinates. Leo is unhappy and yells at the secretary, “why do you bring it in? Can’t you order a meal?”
The secretary has never been scolded by Leo. The sudden reprimand makes her pale.
Although she doesn’t understand why Leo is angry in front of a child, she says in panic, “I’m sorry! I’ll order a meal right away!”
She rushes out of the office with the food. At the same time, she is sure that the little boy must be very important to the president!
Otherwise, he would not scold her for such a small thing.
After the secretary left, Conan happily walks to the chair in front of Leo’s desk. He puts his little hands on the table and looks at Leo.
Leo sees his eyes clearly. He feels his eyes are familiar and he seems to have seen them somewhere.
Leo recalls himself in the mirror when he woke up this morning. He suddenly looks at Conan and says, “you are...”
His eyes are the same as his own in the mirror! Who is this little boy? He even has exactly the same eyes as he does.
They look so alike!
But the little boy has only eyes like his. Leo thinks his face is strange.
Seeing his daddy looks very expectant, Conan smiles at him and says sweetly, “my name is Conan. I am your son!”
Hearing this, Leo can’t help chuckling. He says to Conan, “I’m not married. I don’t know I have such a big son!”
And he hasn’t slept with any other women in recent years. No woman can conceive of his children.
“Don’t you believe me?” Conan stares at him angrily.
“Why should I believe you?” Leo asks lightly.
“I...” Conan is speechless. It seems that he underestimated his daddy. But it doesn’t matter. He was well prepared before he comes here.
Conan points to his eyes and says confidently, “do you think my eyes are familiar?”
“Just a pair of eyes like mine doesn’t mean anything.” Leo says casually, “how do you know you’re my son?”
“My mommy told me.” Conan puts his hands on the back of his head and says arrogantly.

The readers' comments on the novel: Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad
The storyline could have been better -- organization and cohesion of episodes could stand improvement, ending could have been more definitive resolving the many conflicts between the protagonists. Of course, the despicable treatment of Leo towards Claire initially, e.g., selling her off in an auction and giving her to the madam of the club as princess is inhuman and a violation to the wife's rights and honor. I was wondering why she did not leave after these maltreatments. Oh, well, the conclusion [if the narrative ends in Chapter 488] is quite disappointing and anti-climactic. Thank you just the same....
The end of the story is wanting, considering how the episodes build up to conflict after conflict and concluding in yet another conflict. But then c'est la vie! Thank you....
