Miss, My Father loves you novel Chapter 20

"Leave it to me."

Daryl roughly understood what was going on. Zack, being the biggest investor, pulled some strings. And the film company gave the leading role to her right away.

Besides, before she quit, Daryl was the most popular actress. She possessed both the acting skills and beauty perfect for the entertainment industry. This was risky, though. It had been five years since Daryl left the circle. They didn't know if her acting skills were still the same.

Her statement made Sofia curious, so she asked, "Did you agree to be the boy's stepmother?"

"Yes,"

Daryl replied. To keep Sofia from spreading such news, she added, "But you have to keep it a secret for me, or else, Zack will kill me."

She was exaggerating. If Zack was really mad, he might at most ban her from the entertainment industry.

"I know."

Sofia had been in the industry for so long that Daryl's situation did not surprise her.

Most actresses kept their relationships with businessmen as secrets, but Daryl took it up a notch. She got married to one, not just an ordinary tycoon, but to the most powerful man in D City.

After hanging up the phone, Daryl was thinking of how to tell Zack about her upcoming shooting when Benjamin rushed into her arms.

"Wow, Mommy! Will you be shooting your film?"

Benjamin heard his mother talking on the phone. He was delighted with the fact that she could finally do what she wanted.

Holding Benjamin in her arms, Daryl felt warm. She smiled to him and said, "Yes. Are you happy for your mommy?"

It was the first time that Daryl called herself Benjamin's mother. She was a little nervous, but she felt good.

She had been missing her son for so long; Benjamin's presence somehow alleviated the pain.

Benjamin kissed Daryl on the cheek and asked, "Mommy, can I go with you when you start filming?"

'Also to protect you!' he thought to himself. Although Benjamin was a kid, he was aware that women were the usual victims of bullying in the entertainment industry. He was determined to guard her.

Daryl was glad with his enthusiasm. She ruffled his hair. "Of course you can. As long as you don't feel bored there."

"I won't, Mommy," he proudly said.

Benjamin reached for Daryl's hands to cup his face. For him, there could be no dull moment when his mother was around.

The butler cleaned a guest room for Daryl.

It was on the second floor opposite to Zack's room. Benjamin's room was beside Zack's.

Benjamin noticed this and he came up to the butler and asked, "Uncle, why are you cleaning this room?" 'This will be Mrs. Ji's room,1

the butler politely admitted.

Benjamin touched his chin with his delicate fingers as he thought for a while. Then he snorted, "Daddy is so mean. I can't believe he'd drive Mommy away like this."

After the butler left, Benjamin called Dillon over.

"Dillon, go and get Mommy's sheets wet with water!"

"What?"

Dillon asked in confusion. "But why?"

"Daddy kicked Mommy out of their room,"
