Unexpected Love: One Night With Mr CEO

Chapter 185 - 185. Can You Call Me Daddy?



And Anna? She was in the kitchen heating the cold chicken soup for Devan so that his lingering hangover would go away.

Devan\'s feeling now is fresher than usual, for the first time in years, sleeping as soundly as before.

Out of the room wearing Leo\'s casual suit, Devan immediately joined Leo and the others.

"I thought you were dead," Leo said when he saw Devan approaching them.

Devan ignored his cousin\'s words.

"You\'d better go to the kitchen, Anna has prepared food for you," he added, glancing at the kitchen.

Hearing that, Devan turned to follow Leo\'s gaze. Immediately he turned his direction, walking to the kitchen where Anna was.

"Sit down," said Anna when she saw the man approaching her.

"What are you doing?"

Anna did not answer, the woman then pushed Devan out of the kitchen to the dining table.

"Wait here," she said and walked back inside.

Only a few minutes later, the woman came out and arranged various types of food on the table right in front of Devan, one of which was chicken soup.

"Eat, your stomach hasn\'t been filled with anything since this morning," said Anna, sitting next to Devan.

Devan was silent in his position, "You cooked all this?" asked Devan without taking his eyes off the food on the table.

"No, I was helped by Naila earlier," answered Anna.

"Dave, have you eaten?" asked Devan then turned towards the living room, the next second the man stood up and walked over to the boy without waiting for Anna\'s response.

"What are you doing? he\'s playing a game with me, don\'t take him away, Devan," Leo protested when his cousin suddenly came and carried Dave away from there.

"Dave, have you eaten?" asked Devan, ignoring Leo\'s protests.

Dave just nodded.

"Where are you taking me, Uncle?" Dave asked back.

"Accompany Uncle to eat, will you?" invite Devan.

"Can\'t you eat himself, Uncle?"

Devan smiled, then nodded.

"Okay, I will accompany you to eat," said the boy nodding along.

Devan didn\'t let Dave go after arriving at the dining table, the man even brought the boy who was his biological son onto his lap.

"You will have trouble eating, let Dave be with me," said Anna when she saw Devan was reluctant to let go of Dave.

"It\'s okay, leave him here," Devan replied.

Hearing that, Anna sighed harshly, she then got up from her position and got food for Devan.

"Eat slowly."

"And Dave, don\'t move around much, honey."

"Okay, mom."

Devan who heard Anna\'s words frowned, "Leave it alone."

"Uncle, I was reading a book," Dave interrupted, causing Devan and Anna to look directly at the boy.

"Really? Dave is good at reading?" he asked.

"Yes, Uncle."

Devan glanced at Anna briefly then looked back at the boy in his lap. "Then what did Dave read?"

"He said when you\'re eating, you can\'t talk, Uncle. Not only is it not good for the digestive system, but it\'s also said to be rude," Dave replied, suddenly Devan choked on his spit, not only the man but Anna also suddenly went silent. Never thought that Dave would say something like that.

"Re-really?" Devan stammered then laughed lightly.

"Um," the boy nodded in agreement.

"So, if Uncle wants to talk to my mother, then do it after eating, Uncle."

"Yeah, that\'s better, Uncle," he added again and managed to make Devan gape on the spot.

(Yeah, that\'s better, Uncle.) (English language)

"Can you speak English?" Devan replied after a few seconds of silence. The man seemed a little enthusiastic.

(English language)

"Of course, Uncle. My mother said that I had to study hard so that other people wouldn\'t take advantage of me when I grew up," said Dave. (English language)

Devan chuckled hearing his son.

"Ehm.. can you call me daddy?" asked Devan, for some reason it suddenly appeared in his mind. (English language)

Anna smiled stiffly, even though she didn\'t understand much of the conversation between the two people in front of her, but that didn\'t mean she didn\'t understand Devan\'s last sentence. Even the performance of her heart back to work faster than usual.

Dave who heard the man\'s question glanced at his mother briefly, only a few seconds, and looked up again, looking at the man.

"Daddy?" Are you my Daddy?" Dave asked with sparkling eyes. (English language)

Devan nodded.

"Is that true? Mom, is what Uncle said true?"

"Is he my father?" he asked.

Suddenly Anna froze in place.

"Just say it, Anna. It\'s okay," said Devan.

"R-right, dear," said Anna in response to her son\'s question.

"Yeah, I have a Daddy now," Dave said then smiled broadly.

Devan, who heard that, was touched, especially when he saw his son\'s smile. Looks so happy.

"So, from now on call me daddy, ok?" said Devan.

"Okay my daddy," replied Dave.

A spark of happiness appeared in Devan\'s heart, if only he could, he wanted to enjoy moments like this for a very long time. No bullies, no other people, and only the three of them.

"Then you are here with Me, Dave. Let Uncle finish his meal first."

"He is my daddy Mom, not Uncle," Dave protested.

Anna smiled awkwardly again.

"Okay, then, Dave\'s moving now," said Anna.

"Just leave him here Anna," Devan chimed in.

"Daddy, I just want to sit there," said Dave, pointing to the empty chair next to Devan.

A deep breath could be heard escaping from between Devan\'s lips, "Okay," he said then lifted Dave\'s body and sat him on the chair.

After that, Devan returned to continue eating which had stopped. This time eating, without making the slightest sound.

It seemed like his son\'s own words made him a little embarrassed as an adult.

Not only Devan, but Anna also had the same feeling.

Until a few moments later, after completing the ritual of eating. Devan carried Dave back into the living room, followed by Anna when the woman finished clearing the dining table.

"Looks like Auntie is at your house Devan," Leo said but his cousin didn\'t respond at all.

"She\'s with Byanca."

"You should go home and finish things right away."

Devan was still silent and busy playing Dave\'s hair in his lap as if Leo\'s words weren\'t directed at him.
