The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1454

However, there was no one there at all, apart from a black SUV that had just driven away.

Corinne’s face gradually softened. She turned back and said gently to ‘Bryan’, “No more next time, you

hear? You shouldn’t run off by yourself no matter what because you’ll make Mommy worry.”

‘Bryan’ stared at Corinne dazedly. His resistance went down after Corinne changed her tone. This was

markedly different from the attitude he held toward Sophia; he would rebel against her no matter what

she said to him.

Corinne hugged ‘Bryan’ tightly and gently patted his back. “You like those cartoon toys, right? Don’t cry.

Mommy will buy you and Joey lots of cartoon toys, okay?”

Benjamin knew his name was not Bryan, but he could not resist Corinne’s gentleness. Thus, he

nodded and rested his head on her shoulder. “Okay.”

Everyone smiled when the mother and son made peace. Only Christine frowned with a heavy heart at

the scene.

Back at the hotel, the real Bryan had fallen asleep on Jeremy’s lap.

Sophia wheeled Jeremy into the bedroom. Just when she reached out to pick up Bryan, he started

crying in his dreams. She immediately pulled her hand back and the little boy stopped crying.

She tried a few more times to pick him up, but she failed. “Why is this kid being so difficult?”

Jeremy looked down at Bryan with eyes full of fatherly love. “It’s okay. I’ll take care of him myself. You

should get some rest too.”

Sophia became angry. She was the one who raised the kid, and yet he did not even want to let her

touch him!

“Zachary, don’t you think there’s something different about Benjamin?” she asked.

She knew he did not like her, but he never hated her to the extent of refusing her touch. Thus, she

found the whole thing very odd.

Jeremy did not find anything different about the sleeping kid in his lap. “Maybe he didn’t find it

comfortable to sleep in the car so he’s a bit grumpy right now. Plus, you should know that he always

wakes up grumpy first thing in the morning.”

Sophia sighed unhappily, thinking that the kid would be the death of her someday. After all, his

grumpiness was already reserved for her and not his dad! It was obvious he knew who he could bully.

She was tired, so she decided to let it slide. “Okay then, I’m going to take a shower first. You should put

Benjamin on the bed and get some rest too. I’m sure you’re tired from holding him all the way in the

car.”

“Sure,” said Jeremy with a nod.

After Sophia went into the bathroom, Jeremy maneuvered his wheelchair to the side of the bed and

then put Bryan down on the bed.

Bryan frowned at the movement before turning to his side without waking up.

Jeremy was gently pulling the blanket over Brayn when the little boy muttered, “Mommy, Bryan wants

to eat chocolate… Mommy, hug me to sleep…”

‘Bryan? Who’s Bryan? Why is my son calling himself a name I’ve never heard before?’ thought Jeremy

with shock.
