A Moment in Destiny

"Miss, just call him Mr. Rowland; you don't need to know his name!" Daniel blinked his bright eyes and looked at William, who just hung up his call. Daniel pouted and said to him, "This lady wants to know your name, I told her to call you Mr. Rowland!"

William overheard his son just moments ago as he called him daddy to a stranger. This left him quite surprised and shocked. Earlier, William already noticed that this woman was flirting with him, so he pretended to need to make a call to get rid of her. But he was unexpected that she’d follow him here.

William gently held Daniel’s hand, looked at that woman, and said, “Son, you need to get your eyesight checked. She was an old lady. How could you call her Miss?”

With this said, William took his son into the VIP room.

The waitress was left shocked; Old lady? Did she look old? Did she need to go get a facelift again? Was her wrinkles noticeable?

“I’m telling mommy!” Daniel looked at William disapprovingly.

“Tell her what?” William asked.

“That you’re too slick!” Daniel looked up with his little face, “You attract too many women, just like that bad guys on TV!”

“What! When did I go hit on a woman?” William said as he laughed.

“Maybe not this time, but what about next time! You better not, or I’ll make sure you never see mommy again!” Daniel took this chance to threaten William, but his tiny hand never left William’s grasp.

It appeared that he was really concerned with William’s behavior.

“Son, are you trying to help your mommy keep her place?” It just dawned on William that Daniel followed him out because he knew that waitress was flirting with him.

By god, his son must be a genius, right?

“Of course! Mommy didn’t notice, but as her son, I have to help mommy get rid of bad things. I don’t want mommy to feel sad!”

“Do you think this kind of woman would be a challenge to your mommy?” William joked as he squat down to look his son in the eyes. He was glad that his son would protect his mother like this, but also worried whether he was overprotecting her.

Daniel pouted, “I won’t even let any women approach you!”

“Ah hahaha…” William laughed. His son’s adamant tone made him laugh.

“What’s so funny?” Daniel asked as he raised his eyebrows.

“You are a little detective!” William held Daniel up and continued to tease him, “You little rascal, I’m not a male fly.”

“But there are female flies! It’s all too much!” Daniel continued to pout, “If you don’t want to be a male fly, then you’d better ignore them!”

“You little devil!” William touched Daniel’s nose, “Go on, daddy promises to only want your mommy! Come on, call me daddy!”

“No way!” Daniel said, “I’m heading in!”

“Stubborn kid,” Looking at Daniel’s back, the corner of William’s lips raised, then he got up and headed in the VIP room.

“Where’d you two go?” Liam said as he saw the two walk in.

"Nowhere!"

"Nowhere!"
