The Billionaire's Heir I Never Knew Was Mine novel Chapter 235

Chapter 235: The Person Behind It

Zachary couldn’t help but laugh at how creative and determined Skylar was with his questions.

"Easy, easy, buddy..." he said with a chuckle. "Mom and Dad are both fine."

"Really?"

"Really."

There was a small sigh of relief on the other end of the line. "Alright..."

Zachary’s smile softened. "Thank you for worrying about us."

Skylar didn’t say anything on the other end, which was enough to make Zachary worry as he asked, "Buddy, you don’t sound very happy."

Skylar took a deep sigh before he answered, "I was happy yesterday."

"And today?"

"Not anymore."

"Why?"

"Dad, you forgot to call me." He protested.

Zachary gently rubbed his forehead. He really had forgotten.

He had been so focused on making lunch for Sienna and taking care of her that his phone hadn’t crossed his mind all morning.

"I’m sorry, buddy."

There was a brief silence.

Then Skylar spoke again. "It’s okay, Dad..." His voice no longer sounded upset. Instead, it was full of excitement. "Daddy."

"Hmm?"

"I already packed my clothes."

Zachary had a feeling he already knew where this conversation was going. "You packed your clothes?" He asked calmly.

"Yes!"

"And why did you do that?"

"So I can come to the island!" Skylar answered confidently. "I even packed my swimming trunks. I want to build a sandcastle with you and Mommy."

Zachary laughed and had to lower the phone for a moment.

"My little explorer," he said after calming down, "this trip is for Dad and Mom."

Skylar thought about that for a few seconds.

"So... I can’t come?"

"Not this time."

There was another pause.

Then Skylar asked in a very serious voice, "Is it because of the honeymoon?"

Zachary was surprised. "...Who taught you that word?"

"Samantha. But I think she did it accidentally."

In the background, Zachary heard Samantha hurriedly protesting, then she resigned herself, acknowledging Skylar’s statement.

"Master... Yes, I said it accidentally!"

Arthur’s resigned sigh followed immediately after.

Zachary kept smiling as he pictured the awkward situation at Lakeside Garden. He could easily see Arthur struggling to explain what a honeymoon meant, while Samantha wished she could turn back time.

"My son," Zachary said, still smiling, "when Dad and Mom come home tomorrow, the three of us will spend the whole weekend together. We’ll build the biggest sandcastle we can find somewhere closer to home. How does that sound?"

Skylar didn’t answer immediately.

Then his cheerful laugh came through the phone. "Deal!"

"Deal." Zachary’s expression became relaxed.

"And Daddy..."

"Yes?"
