Chapter 50
"Are you having fun?" Vivianna asked Zeph.
"Yes! I joined a meeting with daddy. Daddy is amazing."
"Good. Mommy will pick you up in the afternoon. Shall we go home today?"
"Yes, okay!" Zeph agreed without hesitating.
Vivianna was a little confused. At that time, she heard Zeph asking, "Mommy, do you have time to have lunch together? Daddy wants to treat you to a meal."
Vivianna's heart was beating faster. She replied hurriedly, "No, thanks. I still have work to do. You can have lunch with your father!"
"Oh! Alright!" Zeph was obviously a little disappointed, but Vivianna hung up the phone.
In the building opposite of the pyramid-shaped building, Zeph was holding the phone looking at the tall man beside her, "Daddy, mommy said that she was busy so she can't eat with us."
There was a slight trace of displeasure in the man's dark eyes, yet he still wore a gentle and charming smile in front of Zeph, "Daddy will bring you out for a big feast then."
Zeph's eyes lit up in an instant when he heard the word "big feast".
Vivianna had a simple meal in the cafeteria at noon. After she'd finished eating, she went back to work until around five o'clock in the evening. She wanted to pick up her son, so she was discussing with Linda about following her car later.
Linda's son was abroad. She lived alone and enjoyed hanging out with Vivianna.
When Vivianna went out, she dialed the number her son had used earlier.
"Hello." A sexy male voice came from the other end.
"Augustine, I'm here to pick up my son. Can your assistant bring him down?" Vivianna asked calmly.
"Are you sure you are going to sleep at your place?" The man said charmingly.
"Yes. I'm sure. My son will also sleep at my house from today onwards." Vivianna raised her voice on the phone.
"Okay! I'll ask someone to send him down." He hung up after he'd finished speaking. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Vivianna looked at the phone and was a little puzzled. Didn't that man make an oath that he'd steal Zeph from her? Why did he seem like he didn't care whether his son lived with him? Did he not love his son anymore?
As soon as that idea popped out on her mind, Vivianna felt angry. If he did not love her son, why did he show up and had that paternity test done in the first place? If he ever made her son sad, she would never forgive him.
Linda parked in front of the gate of Giltstone Enterprise, while Vivianna waited at the door. A few minutes later, a small silhouette was running out excitedly from inside, "Mommy, Mommy..."
Vivianna reached out to hold him up into her arms. She couldn't help but kiss him on his little cheek a few times. Looking at her son's beautiful face, Vivianna felt contented and was filled with affection.
"Let's go home." After saying that, Vivianna smiled at Yazlynn Yallop and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome. See you, Young Master Giltstone." Yazlynn waved at Zeph.
"Goodbye, Auntie Yazlynn." Zeph waved his hand. Vivianna carried him down the steps and got into Linda's car.
Linda took Vivianna and Zeph home. At the gate of the community, Vivianna planned to buy some food materials for dinner. She wanted to invite Linda over to have dinner with her but Linda had plan.
"Zeph, how about eating spaghetti for tonight?"
"Okay! It's my favourite." Zeph took her hand,
bouncing enthusiastically.
She took him to the supermarket to buy some materials. Not too many ingredients were needed for spaghetti. However, since Zeph looked so happy, she brought him around for a little longer. Vivianna was afraid that Zeph would be hungry, so she took him home. It was almost half past six when they got home.
They took the elevator all the way to the floor where she stayed. She opened the door to let Zeph go in first. After entering, he stared at the watch on the pointer. He knew how to read the time now.
"Zeph, stay in the living room and don't run around. Mommy is going to make the spaghetti."
"Okay! I'll be good." Zeph promised while watching her went into the kitchen with a bag. He was staring at the ticking clock. A few minutes later, he moved a stool inaudibly to the door and then stepped on it, peeking through the peephole.
About five minutes later, a lanky figure strode gracefully from the direction of the elevator. Zeph was overjoyed. As expected, his daddy arrived on time.
He moved the small stool away and opened the door before his father knocked.
Outside the door, Augustine's broad figure stepped forward. When he saw Zeph, he was startled.
He warned him in a low voice, "Zeph, don't simply open the door in future."
Zeph felt wronged and muttered, "I saw daddy coming so I opened the door."
Augustine reached out his hand and ruffled his soft hair. He had misunderstood him.
Augustine stepped in and gently locked the door. The last time he came there he only got to pick up Zeph at the doorstep. Now, he looked into the small place with two bedrooms and one living room. It was very clean. The woman's sweet fragrance was fainting in the air. He smiled with contentment. Upon hearing some noises from the kitchen, he narrowed his eyes and hushed at Zeph whilst he strolled towards the kitchen. He squinted at the delicate figure who was washing the ingredients like a satan watching his prey.
"Zeph, what are you doing!" Vivianna asked with concern when she didn't hear any noise from her son in the living room.
However, there was no reply from her son. Vivianna could not help but turn her head toward the living room. The scene left her totally flabbergasted. The lanky figure was leaning against the door.
"When... when did you come in?" Vivianna was so shocked that she was stuttering.
"Just now." Ausgustine's sexy thin lips opened
slightly.
At that time, Zeph came out and spoke with a smile, "Mommy, I told daddy that we will be having dinner at home tonight."
Vivianna felt like she had been tricked. No wonder his son wanted to buy two portion of noodles. It turned out that he had been anticipating for that man's arrival!
Vivianna took a deep breath and said in a relatively calm tone, "I said I was taking my son home! Why did you follow all the way here?"
Augustine held up Zeph and stared at her with a smile in the contours of his dark eyes, "From now on, I will be wherever my son is!"
"But you clearly promised that I could take him home!" Vivianna felt Augustine was not trustworthy as he didn't keep his promise.
Augustine raised his sharp eyebrows and smiled wickedly, "You misunderstood what I meant. I said that you could take your son back to your house, but I'll be coming over to stay with you."
Vivianna couldn't stop her face from burning, "You want to stay in my house?"
"Yes, please count me in tonight." Augustine said nturally.
"No, I will prepare your dinner but you'd better go
back to your home to sleep!" There's no way Vivianna would let him stay. Her house was tiny. Apart from the child's bed, she only had one bed. If that man was going to stay, where would he sleep?
She would never open the door to a dangerous person.
