Their Bundle Of Joy novel Chapter 26

Early in the morning.

Daniel waited boringly for Isabel under the shady tree downstairs, for Isabel to send him to kindergarten.

As soon as the child came down, he gazed around but did not see Aiden at all.

Forget about it, Aiden said that he would send him to kindergarten today when he was drinking yesterday. He should not take the words of a drunk man too seriously.

He picked up a small pebble, kicked it to the curb and let it bounce back.

After all, that's how simple a child's world is, a pebble can turn out to be a world of fun.

A shadow appeared on the grass ahead of him, Daniel turned around and rushed back in excitement, "Mummy, hurry up, or we'll be late."

However, the adult's lap Daniel jumped towards today seemed to be one size larger than the one he usually hugged, "You..."

He raised his head to look up.

Aiden did not say anything, he just stared down at him quietly.

Daniel still felt the difference and realized it at once, "You're Aiden right?"

Adam was not as cold and indifferent as Aiden.

"Right, how long until your mummy comes down?" By the fact that the child had just hugged his thighs and called out for Mummy, Aiden knew that the child must have been waiting for Isabel for so long.

"Almost here, almost. Uncle Howard, are you here to drop me off at Sage United School?" Initially thinking that Aiden, who had been drinking last night, had forgotten all about it. However, he showed up right on time, just in time to get to the kindergarten.

"Well, a promise is a promise."

"Yeah, going back on your word doesn’t make you a good boy."

"I'm an adult." Aiden corrected.

"Going back on your word doesn’t make you a good man." Daniel grinned, narrowing his eyes while revising the statement.

Although he had grudges against Aiden, he was indeed his daddy. As it was best to just forgive and forget, he reluctantly started a brief conversation with him.

"Hey, why are you missing a cufflink on your sleeve?" The child happened to stare right at Aiden’s sleeve, so it was easy for him to realise that.

Aiden grinned, "It’s okay, I accidentally lost it. I'll just have someone to sew it back later."

He had an overnight video conference last night, he didn't even have time to change his clothes before rushing here.

The child, still staring at his sleeve, felt that the cufflinks on his sleeves were familiar.

Out of the blue, the thoughts of mummy’s keyring having the same cufflink hit him.

Mummy had had that cufflink on her keyring since the day he could remember.

It seemed that Mummy really really liked Daddy.

So much that all of Daddy's things were treasured and brought everywhere she went for many years.

"Daniel, let's go, hurry up, or it will be too late." Isabel carried the trash as rushed out of the apartment building, shouting as she ran.

At first glance, she was stunned when she saw Aiden in front of her, "Mr Howard, you..."

All of a sudden, Aiden felt pleasant, perhaps it was himself that she had called in her sleep last night.

This is because she called him Mr Howard too.

"Go throw out the trash and get in the car." Aiden's lips were slightly tangled, habitually giving Isabel orders and at the same time, holding onto Daniel’s tiny hand as they walked towards his black Maybach in style.

The polished Maybach stopped there like a wild horse, Daniel got in the car obediently.

Isabel, on the other hand, had thrown the trash away and was rushing over, "Mr Howard, do you really want to send Daniel to Sage United School?" She thought that he was merely making empty promises last night.
