The Ex-Wife's Secret (Jonathan and Teresa) novel Chapter 104

104.Chapter 104

Jonathan raised an eyebrow. “Mike?” “Why did he suddenly bring up Mike out of nowhere?‘ he wondered.

However, Christian did not say anything else. He left behind these words that made him feel a huge sense of relief. “Mike isn’t my son!” The weight in his heart was finally gone, and then he turned and left.

Jonathan found Christian’s words confusing and mused, ‘If he is not Mike’s father,

then who is?

‘Didn’t the DNA test state it clearly? Is he planning to go home to take care of his father and ignore Mike? Why does he always stop halfway through his sentences? What’s

his deal?’

Jonathan went downstairs. He happened to see Keith, his driver.

Keith said, “Mr. Lynn, you came at just the right time. I was just about to head upstairs and ask for leave! My uncle has been diagnosed with cancer, and I need a few days off to go back. Christian and I have already bought plane tickets.”

Jonathan nodded. He allowed employees who needed to visit their families to take time off. “Where are Christian’s girlfriend and child?”

“Child?” Keith shook his head. “What child, Mr. Lynn? Christian never told me he had a child, and I’ve never seen one. But I have met his girlfriend once. I’m not sure if she’s coming this time.”

Jonathan did not ask any more questions as Keith looked clueless, so asking further would be pointless.

Christian felt much more at ease now.

Christian told Jonathan Michael was not his son. As for who it was, if Jonathan wanted to know, he could find out himself. This way, he would not wrong Jonathan or Teresa, and he could face them without guilt.

With that, he could

go home and take care of his sick father without any worry.

At the airport, Christian and Keith were about to board when suddenly, a hand grabbed the former tightly.

Christian paused momentarily, turning to see Sherry wearing a baseball cap and smiling at him while holding a suitcase. “Sherry, why are you-”

Sherry explained, “Your dad isn’t feeling well. He must be having a hard time. I’m worried you can’t handle it alone, so I’m coming with you.”

“But your job-” he added.

She stated, “It’s fine. I’ve asked Teresa for leave! She approved it and said I can come back whenever I want!”

Christian was deeply moved and mused, ‘How did I get such a wonderful girlfriend?” Ignoring Keith, he pulled Sherry into a tight embrace.

Keith smiled, clapping his hands. “Christian, Sherry is really great. It would be wrong not to give her a title!”

Christian nodded, squeezing Sherry’s hand, and said happily, “I will when we get back.” “Okay.” Sherry snuggled into Christian’s arms.

Once they were on the plane, Keith finally mentioned to Christian that Jonathan had inquired about the child.

Christian sighed. “It’s nothing. Keith, stop asking.”

Keith nodded and did not ask further.

Jonathan knew where Christian lived. After work, he drove over there by himself, but the door was closed.

He thought, ‘Is Christian not home? Have he and his family returned to their hometown?” For some reason, Jonathan felt a slight ache in his heart. It might be because Michael was so cute and still so young. After Christian went back to take care of his father, he would definitely be unable to look after Michael.

He thought, ‘What if Mike gets hungry or gets cold? Does Christian’s hometown even have heating?”

For the first time, Jonathan worried so much about someone other than Teresa. However, Michael was not his son. The DNA test–one from Christian and another from Cheryl–both proved that Michael was not his son.

Jonathan called Christian, but the phone was turned off. The same went for Keith. He reckoned they had already boarded the plane.

He wrote: [Christian, did you take Mike back with you? If not, I can take care of him.] -After sending the message, Jonathan put down his phone.

He was definitely one of a kind–a boss helping his secretary take care of a child.

The sky had turned dark. Jonathan arrived at his residential area when he finally got a reply from Christian. It read: [He’s with the person you’re most familiar with.]
