Chapter 1485


    ‘She must really love her husband to still want to wait for him after he abandoned them,’ thought


    Jeremy.


    After musing for a while more, Jeremy stopped and asked Bryan again,” Then when do you n to


    switch back ces with my son?”


    Bryan looked at him with his sad puppy eyes. “Umm… I want to feel what it’s like to have a father for a


    bit more, so can I stay with you for two more days? You have my word that Mommy will treat your son


    very well!”


    Jeremy’s eyes darkened. ”Why me, of all people? I’m nothing but a cripple who can’t even stand up on


    his own. You should look for a Daddy who’s strong enough to carry you on his shoulder.”


    Bryan tilted his head out of distress. “Mister, you shouldn’t talk like that about yourself. I think you’re


    very handsome. You’re the most handsome man I’ve ever seen in my life. You’re even more handsome


    than my uncle! Plus, it’s not like you’ve asked to be wheelchair-bound. But since there’s nothing you


    can do about it, why not try to live more positively? My


    Mommy taught me to never look down on myself and to always believe I’m the best!”


    He ced his hands on his hips and puffed up his chest, almost like a bodybuilder would. It was


    endearing, to say the least.


    Jeremy could not hold back his chuckle anymore. “Your mother sure knows how to raise and teach her


    kids.”


    Bryan lifted his chin proudly. “Right? My Mommy is the best and the prettiest in this world! I’m pretty


    sure you’re gonna fall in love with her once you meet her.”


    Jeremy frowned. ‘Fall in love with her? No. I’ll never fall in love with anyone in this lifetime.’


    Suddenly, the doorbell rang, snapping Jeremy back to the present. He assumed Sophia hade


    back and had forgotten to take her keycard with her.


    He turned to Bryan and said seriously, “You need to continue calling me ‘ Daddy’ from now on. Don’t let


    Sophia find out you’re not Benjamin, okay?”


    Bryan was stunned. He did not understand why he had to do that, but he still nodded obediently. “Okay,


    Daddy…”


    “Good. You can go back to pretending to be asleep if you feel nervous.”


    Bryan was indeed nervous. He was worried he would not be able to keep up the act since he was well


    aware Jeremy already knew he was not


    Benjamin. Thus, heid back down on the bed and pretended to be asleep.


    After making sure the little kid was settled on the bed, Jeremy wheeled him over to open the door.


    “Back so soon?” he said absent-mindedly as he turned the doorknob.


    However, it was not Sophia who hade back. The person who stood outside was taller and more


    muscr than her.


    Being seated in a wheelchair, Jeremy’s eye level was lower than that of an average person. He did not


    look up after opening the door, but he soon noticed something was off when he saw the person was


    dressed in suit pants and leather shoes.


    His pupils shrank, and when he raised his head, he saw a face that was strangely familiar and

    unfamiliar.


    The man was looking back at him calmly, but Jeremy could not help but feel violent rage hiding behind


    those eyes.


    Lucas scoffed when he saw how surprised Jeremy looked. “What’s the matter? Did you not think I’ll find


    you?”
