Chapter 588
Chapter 588 Call Me Dad
This realization made me feel a little lost in an instant
Yes, this adorable child... his current behavior is clearly monitoring me
I deliberately slowed down my speaking speed, and from Meteor's expression, I became even more certain that he was making an effort to distinguish every word I said
He was already five years old, and he could say many words and fully understand conversations between adults that were not too complicated
I felt a strong sense of discomfort surge in my heart, and when I looked at Meteor again, I instinctively frowned
But I quickly detached myself from this emotion again
He was only five years old
Five years old, in my heart, was a contradictory age group
He could understand the vocabulary we used during our conversation, but I knew that he definitely couldn't comprehend how unethical his current behavior was
What makes me feel uncomfortable being monitored is not the child around me, but the adults who teach the child to do these thingsThis is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
I hardly had any more thoughts, and in that instant when the idea arose, I turned my head to look at Mr. Charlie Marilyn, who was sitting not far away under the umbrella
Coincidentally, he was also shaking a glass of champagne and smiling as he looked towards Meteor
This made me even more certain about my own speculation
And as I looked over, Aaron's gaze quickly fell upon me
"Shouldn't we thank our friends for coming?"
He called me softly and pointed to the tables in the opposite direction
Almost all of our friends from when we were in New York were there, so Aaron made a point to distinguish the seating arrangements for these guests and business partners in order to avoid any awkwardness
I nodded and was about to whisper a few words
to him when Jenny suddenly bent down to wipe the cake crumbs off Meteor's mouth corner and then asked with a voice that we all could hear, laughing
"Whose child are you? Following Mrs. Morris around, it's as if you're part of the family."
Meteor, of course, did not know who Mrs
Morris was, indicating that Jenny's words were meant for the adults, perhaps as a joke to liven up the atmosphere
But it was this joke that suddenly changed Aaron's expression
It could get worse
After Jenny asked this question, Meteor immediately looked up and blinked his eyes
"Mrs. Morris? Are you referring to Auntie? I
also wish we were a family, I wish she was my mother!"
The child's voice was crisp, and as he reached out and grabbed my arm, there was an instant silence around us
Because almost everyone sitting in the closest positions to us is my colleagues from the company, there is no one who doesn't know that Meteor is Charlie's son
Or rather, almost everyone has heard about the ridiculous rumors that were circulating about me and Charlie before
I was subconsciously nervous because those absurd rumors had once plunged me into the danger brought by Vincent, and that day's events were certainly not a pleasant memory for Aaron either
What's worse, when Meteor said he wanted me to be his mother, Aaron, Vincent, and Charlie, these three men who were closely related to this matter, all looked at me at the same time
Of course, Vincent didn't dare to openly show his concern. I noticed a momentary avoidance in his gaze, but in the end, he chose to cast a glance at me similar to the one he gave his wife beside him, as if he was merely spectating

But I didn't care about these irrelevant people, I Just wanted to find a way to calm down my husband amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd
Aaron's reaction, however, surprised me
He didn't even have a cold face anymore, nor did he scold the child who was talking nonsense. Instead, he turned his head and
handed Molly, who he was holding, to the maid, and then bent down to pick up Meteor
In Meteor's pure and clear gaze, Aaron also revealed a smile
But I felt that his smile was even more terrifying than anger
Because the next thing he said was-
"If Auntie were your mother, then you would have to call me Dad."
Meteor was ultimately just a child, leaning against Aaron's embrace, looking at me in confusion. Seeing no response from me, he then looked towards his father Obviously, before this, he had not been taught how to deal with such a situation
And his father, Mr. Charlie Marilyn, quickly suppressed his smile and his face turned even uglier than a crow's, amidst the surprised whispers of the crowd
