Clarissa was used to traveling back and forth between D City and W City.
It also wasn’t Damian’s first time. After the pretty flight stewardess had served some deserts to him, he started trailing her everywhere like a little tail.
Clarissa didn’t want to look at the embarrassing scene of his son flirting, so she hung her head and placed her hand over her forehead, covering her eyes.
“Mommy, are you having a headache? Let me blow on it.”
Damian felt worried over his mommy when he turned to check on her and noticed her hand over her forehead.
“Damian, sit properly. I won’t feel any more headache if you stopped disturbing the pretty flight stewardess.”
“But I like the pretty stewardess.”
“Does it mean that she belongs to you if you like her?”
Damian blinked his eyes slowly as he didn’t understand Clarissa’s words.
Clarissa laughed at her son’s adorable expression.
She neared Damian and pecked his forehead. “Why are you so cute?”
Damian laughed despite not understanding Clarissa’s words.
After the plane landed, Clarissa sat Damian on her luggage and towed it towards the exit. On the way there, they bumped into a group of excited fans. Damian was curious, so he followed their line of sight with sparkling eyes. He looked adorable, dressed in a black down jacket and kicking his sneakers.
Some passersby who noticed Damian were attracted to his handsome face, especially his bright and big eyes.
However, they were soon distracted by the huge crowd of fans.
“Mommy, who are they waiting for?”
Damian asked curiously.
“It should be a famous celebrity.”
“Famous celebrity? Is it Uncle Ryler?”
Clarissa had told him before that Ryler was a celebrity. She had only mentioned it in passing, so she was surprised that he could remember.
“No, it’s not Ryler. It’s another celebrity. I don’t know who it is too.”
“If so, Mommy, can we go nearer and have a look?”
Damian’s puppy-eyed look melted any resolve she had to deny him.
Even though sometimes Clarissa complained about her son, but deep in her heart, she knew he was charming, adorable, and fashionable.
She didn’t have the heart to reject his small request. “Damian, there’s a lot of people there, so we’ll only be looking from a distance away. Is that alright?”
“Alright, Mommy.”
At his agreement, Clarissa towed him along with the luggage towards the crowd.
Naturally, she wouldn’t be able to squeeze herself to the front, so she halted at the edge of the crowd and waited with them.
There were a few young girls who caught a glimpse of Damian. They have stealthily taken photos of him with their phones. However, Clarissa caught them, so they were slightly embarrassed and decided to greet Damian.
“You’re so adorable, boy. Miss, is he your son? He is so lovely. Can I take a photo with him?”
Clarissa chuckled, “You can ask him.”
Damian nodded before they even popped the question.
“Sure, pretty lady.”
“Oh my gosh. You’re such a sweet-talker, how cute…”
More and more girls noticed Damian and wanted a photo with him as though he was a celebrity.
Clarissa was almost squeezed away from Damian. Fortunately, the celebrity had arrived, so all the fangirls dashed towards the arrival gate. Clarissa swiftly pushed Damian towards the exit.
Clarissa didn’t inform Matthew about their arrival lest he skipped work and came to pick them up.
Damian was sleepy upon arriving at the Zen Highlands, so Clarissa promptly put him to sleep. She took a shower then rested comfortably.
However, before long, she received a call from Yael.
“You’re back? Don’t forget about tonight’s cocktail party. Dress up prettily, and let’s go get some investment.”
Clarissa was rendered speechless by her comment.
Still, Clarissa didn’t have the option to reject.
Clarissa dressed up prettily as advised before she left for the party. She was dressed in a black dress with an overcoat and a purse.
However, Damian was clinging onto her leg, unwilling to let go.
“Mommy, don’t go,” Damian sobbed.
Damian was reluctant to let her leave because Matthew wasn’t back yet. Clarissa’s heart ached at him crying. She wanted to stay with him so badly.
Nevertheless, this was work-related, and she had already promised Yael. So she couldn’t go back on her words.
She bent down to his eye level and wrapped him tightly with her arms. However, even her incessant kisses on him didn’t stop him from crying.
Julia helped coax him from the sides but to no avail.
