Daniel was already late and could only take a taxi.
Isabel was feeling guilty for letting the entire film crew wait for Daniel and that’s why she didn’t hesitate to hail a taxi.
The Maybach followed closely and he called Ewan’s phone via Bluetooth.
“Master Howard, I’m on the road,” Ewan reported as he headed to the film set.
“You don’t have to go anymore.”
Ewan was caught off guard and asked in return, “What do you mean?”
“The household registration department.” Aiden was slightly embarrassed. This was the first time in his life that he had reneged and was the first time that he had been rejected by a rascal kid.
But he wasn’t upset with the rejection.
Ewan then understood what he meant, “Okay.”
He didn’t expect that Aiden told him not to change the last name for Daniel to Howard.
Previously when he heard that Aiden gave his order, he thought that his boss had gone mad.
But now that Aiden had canceled this decision, Ewan felt that not only had Aiden gone mad, but he was also totally abnormal.
He has never seen Aiden in this state.
Once Aiden made a decision, it had to be executed and it had to be carried out in perfection, unconditionally.
This time, he was wishy-washy and was totally a different person.
Once Aiden finished saying, he hung up the line.
He himself felt awkward about it.
Because of Isabel, he had become a household name in T City and can never return to the obscure life of an anonymous.
No, he has to give up Isabel.
When he taught of this, Aiden turned the car around and the taxi in his rearview got farther and farther from him.
It was Sunday and Isabel was not herself for the entire day. She felt withered like a bruised eggplant. In the evening, the director acceded to Adam’s request to wrap up for the weekend.
Daniel’s performance wasn’t bad.
The kid wasn’t the main role in the film and didn’t have many scenes but he was very talented. He had very few outtakes. He should have completed the film by next weekend. That’s why the director was very satisfied with Daniel.
Once the filming concluded, the kid dashed towards Isabel’s embrace. He then kissed Isabel on both her cheeks, “Mommy, we can leave already.”
Looking at Daniel’s sweet smile, Isabel’s mood turned for the better.
Forget it. She can’t force it if it isn’t hers. She still has Daniel to accompany her.
Five years had passed and in fact, life isn’t that long.
Her loneliness dissipated somewhat when she thought of it from that angle.
Once they left the film set, Isabel’s eyes lit up. “Celia, you came to pick me up?”
When she was watching over Daniel’s acting during the day, she and her best friend talked over the phone for a long time. She also mentioned to Celia that she was at the film set with Daniel and didn’t expect Celia to show up.
Celia pushed Isabel away and didn’t show any interest for her. Instead, she went for Daniel and held his tiny hand. She looked at him all around until Daniel was embarrassed. Then she carried him up, “Daniel is so handsome. You are much more handsome than in the video, come, give me a kiss.”
The kid was stunned for a moment as he seldom allowed others to carry him, especially for a woman. Now he was at his limit when Celia carried him and she still wanted him to kiss her?
Celia saw that the little kid was getting uncomfortable and laughed, “Your mom and I shared a bed together. If you despise me, then it means that you despise your mother.”
