Chapter 56

“Are you having fun, Little lan?” “Mhm." Both of them were sitting in a small wooden boat that

could seat only a parent and a child. It wasn't powered by anything and could only move by

manually pedaling and rowing the double oars. Hence, when Sasha pedaled, lan would use his little

hands to row the oars. His face was flushed and perspiration coated his forehead, but his beautiful

eyes were exceptionally bright, which was a stark contrast to his usual aloof self. Sasha smiled along

with him and continued pedaling vigorously, about to bring him to play some more. Just then, her

phone rang.

“Hello?” “Madam, oh my God. What were you thinking? How could you kidnap lan and run away like

that? Goodness gracious, I really can't... Please, come back quickly or you'll be done for!” The

moment Sasha answered the call, Luke's frenzied voice reached her ears. Her expression fell as she

asked, “What's wrong? He knows? No... I didn't kidnap Little lan. He didn't want to see his grandpa,

so I brought him out with me. That's all.” Oh God, doesn't she understand the gravity of the situation

now? Luke didn’t bother to elaborate further. Instead, he begged her to quickly bring lan back and

said that if she didn't, she would never be allowed to see lan again. Sasha finally came to her senses

and brought a very reluctant lan back on shore.

“Little lan, our fun stops here for today. You just fell sick, so you can't play too much. Let's go find

Daddy now, okay?” “Daddy?” lan was an immensely intelligent child, so he instantly realized that

something was off by listening to his mother's words. However, Sasha would never tell him anything

she deemed inappropriate for a child's ears. After coaxing him a little, she carried him back to the

car, and they both left the amusement park, heading toward Hayes Corporation. Twenty minutes

later, the car drove into the city center and approached Hayes Corporation. Then, it rolled to a stop

in front of the skyscraper. After receiving the call from Luke earlier, Sasha didn't have the inclination

to go in whatsoever. From Luke's tone, she knew for a fact that that man would make things difficult

for her if she went up. Unfortunately... “Ms. Nancy?”

"Oh, alright. I will bring you up, hmm?” Sasha snapped out of her trance. Glancing at the boy beside

her who still looked a little pale and sickly, she alighted the car and brought him down. “Oh, the

president's son is here. Hi, little one. I see you finally have some time to come over.” Perhaps

because Sebastian often brought lan to the company, everyone there knew who he was. As soon as

Sasha led him in, the front desk receptionist immediately came over to greet him warmly. lan never

liked speaking, so he merely shot a fleeting glance at her. To dispel the awkwardness,

Sasha quickly answered for him, “Yes, his father asked me to bring him here. Is he in his office now?”

"Oh, yes, yes. The president didn’t go out this afternoon. Oh? I've never seen you before. Are you

the newly hired nanny for Mr. Hayes’ son? You're very young!” Unexpectedly, the receptionist posed

such a question after giving Sasha a once-over. Following that, Sasha's whole body stiffened.

Nanny? Hah! Isn't that the truth though? She didn't dare to acknowledge this child as her own at

that moment. Besides, no one in this building knew that she was once the president's wife and

would have been the lady boss here because their wedding back then hadn’t even been announced

to the public.

Sasha lowered her gaze as a self-deprecating smile played on her lips. Just when she was about to

admit to being a nanny, the small hand she was holding abruptly tugged her twice. “Let's go!” lan’s

eyes were extremely hostile as if someone had provoked him. Upon seeing this, Sasha did not waste

a second, quickly bringing him to the elevator. Not long after, the front desk receptionist received a

notice of dismissal from the Human Resource Department. The reason for her dismissal was because

lan didn’t like her! Sasha brought lan to the president's office on the highest floor. *

Ahem... Little lan, why don't you go in on your own, hmm? I won't be going with you. Your daddy is

inside, so it wouldn't be very appropriate for me to go in. Is that okay?” Sasha's reluctance to see

Sebastian had steadily increased all the way here. Standing right outside his office, she finally

succumbed to it. lan looked at her and agreed, "Okay!" Then, he obediently let go of her hand and

made his way into the office. Sasha was stunned. No way. That was too easy. He really agreed? He's

usually very clingy.

Why is he so obedient all of a sudden? Sasha was rather surprised that her son had agreed so readily,

but at the same time, she was beyond delighted at how smoothly things went. She slowly turned

around and tiptoed toward the elevator, hoping to quickly leave this place. “Sasha! Get in here!”

However, her hopes were crushed when a voice boomed from inside the office. Suddenly, her whole

body was frozen to the spot, as if held by an invisible force. How is that scum’s hearing so sharp?

Like a meek little girl, Sasha obediently approached his office. “Good afternoon, Mr. Hayes.” She let

out an awkward laugh. Upon stepping into the office, her eyes were immediately drawn toward the

man sitting behind the large desk. In the spacious and brightly illuminated office, sunlight poured in

through the French windows, creating a halo around his figure. Right then, he looked like a king

reigning over his kingdom in his throne, so noble and lofty no one dared to look at him directly.
