The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 1483
Bryan sat up and scratched his head. âWhat are you talking about, Daddy? I donât understand what
youâre saying.â âYouâre not my son,â said Jeremy sternly.
Bryan was shocked. He could not hide the guilt on his face anymore.
Finally, he pouted and said, âFine, I admit Iâm not your sonâ¦â
Well, at least heâs honest,â thought Jeremy. He raised an eyebrow and asked, âWhy did you pretend to
be my son? Did someone put you up to it? Just what are you trying to achieve?â
Bryan shook his head quickly and put up his hands. âNo, no! Iâm not trying to achieve anything! I just
thought you were very handsome and fatherly. I donât have a father, so I wanted to experience what itâs
like to have oneâ¦â
For some reason, Jeremy could not help but feel a tug at his heart when he saw how pitiful and sincere
Bryan looked.
All sorts of possibilities ran through his mind. For example, someone made the child look like Benjamin
through an ancient art of face disguise called Metamorph so he could spy on him and Sophia.
However, he found no trace of the child having undergone any physical changes. The childâs skin was
as real as it could be. Thus, Jeremy ruled out that possibility.
âWhen did you swap places with my son?â asked Jeremy, even though he knew the answer since he
could remember the exact moment he found out his son was acting weird. He just wanted confirmation.
Bryan spread out his hands. âPlease, Mister, I didnât mean to swap places with your son. It was all a
coincidence. Last Saturday, my Mommy took me, my brother, and my sister for a picnic, and it was then
I saw someone
flying a cartoon kite I like⦠So I followed the kite to find out who it belonged to.
âIt was then I saw the kid flying the kite, and he was wearing a cartoon mask. I went over to ask him
where he bought the kite and begged him to let me wear the cartoon mask for a whileâ¦
âAfter some sucking-up, he agreed to let me wear his cartoon mask. But my mother came to look for
me as soon as I put on the mask. I donât know why, but she took the other kid away instead of me!
âI started chasing after her, but that lady Sophia grabbed me and told me I shouldnât run off by myselfâ¦
and then I saw you. After that, I was brought back here⦠I swear thatâs how everything happened.â
Jeremy thought back to everything that happened last Saturday. Benjamin went to pick up his cartoon
kite, but he would not stop crying after Sophia found him. He kept saying he wanted his âMommyâ, too.
âSo he was crying for his real mother and not Sophia, then. But how could another boy out there look
exactly like my son? Do doppelgangers exist?â
âCall your Mommy now and tell her where you are. Ask her to bring my son back and tell her also that
Iâm going to make her pay if my son is hurt in any way,â said Jeremy after thinking it over.
Bryan frowned. âDonât worry, Mister. My mommy is a super nice lady. Your son must really look like me
for her to mistake him for me. Sheâll definitely treat him well since she thinks heâs me!â
Jeremy considered himself a cautious and suspicious person, but for some reason, he did not feel at all
worried about the bizarre situation.
