Chapter 558
Isaac clutched Daniel’s shoulders tightly as Daniel spilled the whole story, ending with a pleading question, “Dad, Is
she really my mom?”
Only then did Isaac realize he’d been played by Derek Bishop.
Brittany had seen Daniel before and even showed deep concern for him. Yet Derek knew that and deliberately kept
Brittany’s real identity from him.
From the beginning, Brittany had made contact with Daniel. In fact, the woman Daniel had been calling mom was
her! Taking a deep breath, Isaac seriously answered Brittany, “Yes, she’s your mom.”
Daniel’s mouth fell open, “But mom has a boyfriend”
Mom’s boyfriend wasn’t his dad.
Isaac felt the sting of betrayal once again.
“Do you want your mom to come back?”
“Of course.”
‘Then can you do me a favor?”

my mom up?”
If he misbehaved, dad would lock him up!
If he dared to lock mom up, he would never let dad off the hook!
“No. Do you want to move in with your mom right now?”
“Yes.”
“Then tonight, I’ll have someone take you there. From today on, you will stay in touch with me every day and follow
your mom around all the time. Got it?”
“Dad, are you asking me to spy?”
Daniel was sharp. He knew dad wanted him to keep tabs on mom!
“Yep, you’re in charge of sticking with her and keeping other men away. Can you handle that?”
Daniel frowned, skeptical, “But she has a boyfriend.”
He didn’t get why mom’s boyfriend wasn’t his dad.
“If your mom gets a new boyfriend, she won’t come back to me, and you won’t get to see her all the time. Do you
want your mom?” Isaac patiently explained.
Daniel really wanted his mom. After hearing Isaac, he hastily replied. “Yes.”
‘Then be a good boy. I made a mistake before, and your mom hasn’t forgiven me. You behave and stay with her. If
she gets into trouble, you tell me right away, okay?”
Daniel hesitated. ‘So you love mom?”
“Of course. Adult stuff is complicated. I won’t harm your mom. You can move in with her and stay together every
day. Isn’t that nice?” Thinking of Brittany’s warm embrace, Daniel’s emotions stirred, “Well… alright.”
Isaac was pleased. That night, he sent Daniel to Brittany.
Brittany woke up a little disheartened when she saw the note Daniel had left.
Not long after, a young man showed up with Daniel, carrying a bunch of packages. “Ma’am, nice to meet you. I’m
Daniel’s father. I need a favor.”
He pulled out a wad of cash, eyes sincere, and said, ‘Miss, I have a business trip coming up, and I’m really worried
about my son. He likes you a lot. Could you look after him for a while? Just a month at most.”
Daniel stood behind his father, clutching a toy, and looked innocently at Brittany.
He looked like a little lost puppy, curled up in a comer, pulling at the heartstrings.
“Dad? How could you leave Daniel all by himself? And hand him over to me? Aren’t you worried I might harm him?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was such a workaholic, neglecting his own son. No wonder poor Daniel was suffering!

Brittany felt sorry for Daniel. Her tone was tinged with annoyance.
The bodyguard had never met Brittany before but knew she was important to Mr. Salter. So, he patiently explained.
“I’m really sorry, miss. I have no choice. Daniel is my treasure, but I have to work. I really don’t have time. I
appreciate your help.”
After saying that, he prepared to leave.
Brittany had never seen such an irresponsible parent. She wanted to chase after him, but Daniel held her back,
“Mom, don’t you want me either?”
Daniel’s face was full of hurt, which made Brittany’s heart ache.
She immediately crouched down to comfort him, saying, ‘No, Daniel, I definitely want you. But he’s your dad, L…
“If you think I’m a burden, I’ll leave.” Daniel let go of her, tears streaming down his face even more fiercely, “Dad
doesn’t want me. You don’t want me. I’ll just go.”
The bodyguard was shocked. When did Daniel become such a great actor? His tears were on command?
