Watch Out, CEO Daddy! novel Chapter 2

After five years.

The airport terminal had just announced the arrival of the plane. In no time, a batch of passengers exited the security checkpoint.

"Mummy, it's hot. I want to have ice cream." The innocent voice of a child was heard as Sebastian Jeans held his mother's hand. He was blinking with his black eyes that were watery.

Sharon glanced at her son helplessly. His pitiful expression made her give in even though she knew he was faking it.

"You can only buy one." She took out a bank note from her wallet and told him, "Come back once you've bought it. I'll wait for you right here." Sharon was dragging the luggage.

"Roger! My honorable mother!" Sebastian gave his mother a flying kiss before beginning to run while holding onto the note in his hand tightly.

Sharon had not even been able to ask him to take his time. At that moment, her phone rang.

"Hello? Riley? Yeah, I've already returned… alright, I'll take a cab over there now."

It was a call from her best friend, Riley Gabriel.

In the past, Sally, Riley, and herself had stayed in the same hostel during university. They were used to be great friends with the three of them almost always being seen together. They had even vowed to be each other’s guardians.

However, during the wedding that took place five years ago, Sharon ended up seeing Sally's true colors. It marked the end of their relationship.

Only Riley treated her sincerely. Throughout the years when she was away, they both kept in touch via phone calls.

At the moment, she had returned, and Riley had asked her to bring her son over to stay with her.

Once Sharon ended the call, she coincidentally saw the news that was being broadcasted on a large screen that was hung high ahead. It read, “Young Master Zachary and Mrs. Zachary will be holding their fifth wedding anniversary on the coming 26th.”

The piece of news made her eyes teary.

'Mrs. Zachary? He really did marry Sally!'

Five years had passed in the blink of an eye. She would never forget the humiliation she endured that year!

Sharon was petrified by the voice. Subconsciously, she raised her head and matched the man’s pair of cold, black eyes. She had to take in a deep breath before she was finally able to make out the man's appearance.

At that split second, Sharon thought she was seeing things.

The handsome face before her looked like… an enlarged version of her son.

All of a sudden, she was stunned by the sight of it and felt utterly surprised.

"Are you done looking at me?" The man shoved her hand away and said in an indifferent tone.

Sharon managed to recover, but deep within her, she was astonished. 'This man, could he be my son's father?

'No… how is it possible for such a coincidence to occur in the world? How could I so easily bump into my son's dad?

'Well, my son does look like him but only in certain ways.' That was what she thought. Her face put on an apologetic smile. "I'm really sorry about that. Why not I compensate you with some cash? Or perhaps I could buy you a new pair of pants?"
