Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 73: Really Want to Be Someone’s Stepfather
In the old Hawke Family residence, Cole Hawke wore a faint smile as he watched Bea play with a puzzle, casually chatting with Madam Hawke.
"Grandma, I really didn’t expect such a big thing to happen, thank goodness Charlie is okay."
"Right! Those Don Family people are really no good. If it hadn’t been for Victoria Don being pregnant with Charlie, Damon would never have considered her. That family can’t be taken seriously."
Speaking of this matter, Madam Hawke couldn’t help but vent her frustration, cursing the Don Family thoroughly.
"The Don Family is indeed petty. Uncle called off the engagement with Victoria Don, which counts as teaching them a lesson."
Cole Hawke’s smile remained unchanged, "It’s just, Victoria Don is ultimately Charlie’s biological mother. I’m worried the child won’t be able to let go of his attachment to her."
A child’s reliance on their mother is innate.
As long as the child is around, can Damon really sever ties with Victoria Don?
"Speaking of this, after Charlie took a fall, it felt like he became a different person."
Madam Hawke laughed and said, "Not only did the little guy become a lot more lively, but when he cried out for mommy, I showed him Victoria Don’s picture, and he said I was mistaken, that she wasn’t his mommy."
The little guy seemed like a different person, and didn’t recognize Victoria Don?
That’s interesting!
Cole Hawke’s mind shifted slightly, and the face of another little guy flashed in his thoughts.
If he hadn’t seen the real face of Bea, perhaps he, like Madam Hawke, would believe the little guy’s changes were due to the fall.
But he happened to see the child’s true appearance!
When that little guy saw him, there was clearly a hint of evasion in his eyes.
As if wanting to avoid his gaze!
Why avoid his gaze?
Because he knows him, and that’s why he dodges his eyes!
Therefore, perhaps the little boy beside Elara Don is the actual Dominic Hawke.
While the little boy in the old residence is Elara Don’s son, Bea!
No!
There must be some mix-up here.
The two kids look identical, they must be twins!
But Dominic Hawke is Victoria Don’s son, so why would Bea be Elara Don’s son?
Someone must have meddled in this!
He doesn’t believe two identical-looking children would have two different mothers.
"The eldest young master is back."
A servant announced outside the door, and soon Damon Hawke’s tall figure appeared in the hall.
Bea immediately dropped the puzzle and ran toward Damon Hawke.
"Daddy, you’re back."
The little guy’s sparkling big eyes glistened with affection and attachment.
Damon’s heart softened, he reached out and picked him up.
"Is your head still dizzy today?"
The son’s fall made his emotions quite apparent.
Could this be a blessing in disguise?
"Mm, still a little dizzy. But I’m a little man, I must be strong."
Bea patted his own little head, lifting his chin slightly.
Damon chuckled lightly, holding him as he sat on the sofa, greeting Elder Hawthorne and others.
His gaze fell onto Cole Hawke’s face, and he said, "Arthur, this time you’re back for good, right?"
"Yes, my dad’s health is not very good, he hopes I stay in the country."
"Then report to the company tomorrow! You’ve completed your studies and should help lighten the Hawke Family’s burden."
Damon glanced at Madam Hawke, making the decision.
His elder brother Jason Hawke was not Madam Hawke’s biological son, but the child of Elder Hawthorne’s first wife.
The company had always been managed by him.
A few years ago, due to a car accident, the company began gradually transitioning into Damon’s hands.
Now that Cole Hawke is back, it’s time for him to join the Hawke Group and help out.
To prevent Jason Hawke from having ideas.
"Right, Damon, Arthur has studied abroad, he’s an excellent student, since he’s finished studying, he should return to the Hawke Corporation to help alleviate your burdens."
Elder Hawthorne glanced at the two of them, "In the future, the company will rely on you young people, Damon you should mentor him more, and Arthur should humbly learn management from Damon. I look forward to seeing the company’s further development under your leadership."
Two young men, although with different identities, are both descendants of the Hawke Family.
He hopes that during his lifetime, there won’t be internal struggles like those seen in other wealthy and influential families.
"Grandpa, rest assured, I will humbly learn from Damon. After all, since childhood, he has been our role model."
Cole Hawke gave a slight smile, discreetly complimenting Damon.
Elder Hawthorne looked satisfied, nodding with approval.
Bea found their conversation boring, yawned, and rubbed his eyes.
Damon lowered his gaze, gently asking, "Sleepy?"
"Uh-huh."
"Then go to sleep."
"Daddy, you accompany me."
"Alright."
Feeling the little guy’s attachment to him, Damon picked him up, nodded slightly to Cole Hawke, and went upstairs.
"It’s getting late, Grandpa, Grandma, I’ll leave you to your rest."
After Damon went upstairs, Cole Hawke took his leave from the two elders of the Hawke Family.
His gaze moved away from the little guy lying on Damon’s shoulder, his eyes shimmering.
He would get to the bottom of the situation.
Who exactly is the biological mother of these two children!
Upstairs, Damon tucked the little guy into bed, noticing his dark eyes fixed on him.
"What is it? Didn’t you say you were sleepy?"
"Daddy, is my mommy really a big star?"
Wanting mommy again?
Damon paused slightly, softly asking, "Why ask that?"
"Hmm, because I feel like she’s not my mommy!"
Bea frowned, awkwardly voicing his concern.
That lady is quite pretty, but he inexplicably doesn’t like her.
A voice in his little head kept telling him, that this isn’t his mommy!
Made a mistake!
"Alright, if you say she’s not, then she’s not!"
Damon smiled, "Once you’re feeling better, I’ll let you pick the mommy you like, how about that?"
Once the little guy is healthier, he’ll take him to meet Elara Don.
See if the son still likes her as much as before!
"Mm, I’m sleepy, Daddy goodnight."
Bea nodded, yawned once more, bidding Damon goodnight.
Damon curved his lips, eyes filled with tenderness.
After the little guy fell asleep, he rose and quietly exited the child’s room.
Voices wafted from downstairs.
"Where’s Damon? Is he back yet?"
"Upstairs, putting Charlie to sleep."
"Look at him, what’s he up to?"
"..."
It was his sister Vinny Hawke’s voice.
What now?
Damon’s brow furrowed slightly, feeling a bit helpless.
"Sis, back?"
Downstairs, Vinny Hawke looked at the man descending, throwing a document onto the coffee table.
"Damon, what were you doing this evening? Actually going off to babysit for someone else? Are you seriously considering playing the stepdad?"
Hearing this, Damon understood that the incident earlier this evening of him picking up Bea from kindergarten had made the news.
He remained silent, casually picking up the document to flip through.
It was information related to Elara Don.
Looks like Vinny Hawke had investigated Elara Don.
