Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 142: Not Here to See Me

Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Not Here to See Me
"Damon, are you really not coming to meet Samantha? She just got back to the country, and a few friends are here to welcome her."
Craig Landers looked at Damon Hawke, confirming once more.
"No, I’m here to pick up Charlie."
Damon Hawke replied unemotionally.
Craig Landers stared at his profile.
"Damon, I heard Samantha plans to develop her career domestically. About her..."
"Wayne, I don’t want to bring up the past. She and I are over."
After saying this, Damon Hawke strode forward.
Craig Landers touched his nose and followed.
Evelyn Miles and Damon Hawke used to be considered a golden couple in their circle.
He always thought they would end up together.
He never imagined that when Damon was about to propose to Evelyn, she said she wanted to develop her career abroad.
Damon had tried to persuade her to stay, but Evelyn was determined to leave.
And at that time, Victoria Don showed up with a child.
Just like that, the two officially broke up.
After going around in circles, Damon Hawke ended the engagement with Victoria Don.
And Evelyn Miles returned to develop her career here.
Does Damon really have no feelings for her anymore?
"Wayne, Mr. Hawke."
A woman’s voice called out from not far away.
Craig Landers and Damon Hawke looked up to see Selena Taylor and Evelyn Miles walking over from the restroom.
It was Selena Taylor calling them.
Both stopped in their tracks, and Craig Landers raised an eyebrow, whispering into Damon Hawke’s ear.
"Damon, this is fate, now you can’t avoid seeing her even if you wanted to."
Damon pressed his thin lips, his handsome face revealing no emotion.
Only his hands hanging by his sides moved slightly.
"Tom, long time no see."
Evelyn Miles gracefully approached them, nodding slightly to Craig Landers before her gaze settled on Damon Hawke’s face.
The emotion in her almond eyes was palpable.
Not seeing him for four years, this man had only grown more handsome.
He’d shed some of his youthfulness and gained a mature man’s magnetism.
So handsome one couldn’t look away.
Damon Hawke glanced her up and down, his gaze slightly shifting.
"Samantha, how did your clothes get wet?"
Noticing Samantha’s clothes were dirty, Craig Landers asked what Damon wanted to say.
"I just ran into a bratty kid, and it turned out like this."
Samantha spoke softly, then looked at Damon Hawke, "Tom, shall we chat in a private room while we eat?"
"No, you all meet up, I’m here to pick up my parents and my son."
Damon Hawke nodded to Samantha, preparing to leave.
Samantha’s face changed, "So Mr. Hawke and Mrs. Hawke are here too? Tom, why don’t I join you to say hello?"
Did he not come here to see her?
Son!
Oh right!
He has a four-year-old son now!
A flash of the bratty kid she just met crossed her mind.
Why did she feel the kid looked somewhat like Damon Hawke?
"Maybe next time, my son doesn’t like it when I get too close to women."
Damon spoke calmly, then didn’t stop any longer, leaving in large strides.
Samantha opened her mouth, staring blankly as Damon Hawke disappeared around the corner, her face ugly.
He’s so cold to her!
Even catching up had to consider his son?
"Samantha, don’t overthink it. You left Mr. Hawke years ago to pursue your career; he’s sure to have some resentment. No need to rush, there’s plenty of time."
Selena Taylor watched coldly beside her, then looked at Craig Landers, "Wayne, don’t you think so?"
Craig Landers cleared his throat, glanced at Selena, met her suggestive eyes, and nodded, "Yes, Damon has a bit of a macho mindset, and he’s definitely still bothered about the past."
He also didn’t really know what his buddy was thinking.
He just knew Damon Hawke’s romantic prospects were thriving.
"Let’s go, into the private room, we’ll chat over food."
Selena held onto Craig Landers’ arm, signaling Evelyn Miles to join them.
Craig Landers’ body stiffened, discreetly pulling away from Selena, looking at Evelyn, "Samantha, how have you been abroad these years? Are you staying this time?"
Since childhood, Evelyn had been learning ballet and became a renowned dancer.
Four years ago, the Royal International Ballet Troupe invited her to join as their principal dancer.
Because of this, she insisted on breaking up with Damon to study abroad.
"Alright, other than performing, just performing, so I wanted to take a break."
Evelyn withdrew her gaze, somewhat distracted.
"Samantha, women should prioritize family. Look at how old you are, naturally, the focus should shift from work."
Selena glanced at Craig Landers, thinking about his discreet action just now, her eyes flickering slightly.
She held onto Samantha’s hand, "I still have hopes for Mr. Hawke. Since both of you are single, why not rekindle the old flame?"
"Selena, stop, Tom has had no shortage of women these past four years, why would he still think of me?"
Evelyn looked bashful, but her eyes sparkled.
"Why wouldn’t he?"
Selena said: "Mr. Hawke and Victoria had no feelings. It was only because she shamelessly got pregnant that she rose to the top. Now it’s good, Mr. Hawke canceled the engagement with her, isn’t he waiting for you to become the lady of Hawke Corporation?"
"But I heard he broke off the engagement with Victoria because of a perfumer. Wayne, is that right?"
Looking at Craig Landers, Samantha said.
Craig Landers felt a bit tired.
He didn’t want to discuss his buddy’s romances at all.
"Sort of. But they aren’t together yet, there’s still a lot of uncertainty."
The disparity in their identities was significant, so being together did seem challenging.
That wasn’t an exaggeration.
"Just a perfumer, can she compare to you, Samantha, with your elegant dancer’s charm?"
Selena dismissed it, "Find a time to meet her, she’ll surely back off."
Hearing this, Samantha’s gaze shifted slightly.
She looked at Craig Landers, "Wayne, tell me about this perfumer and Tom’s situation."
Only by knowing the enemy can you win every battle.
Craig Landers felt he shouldn’t have come out for this meal today.
He cleared his throat, carefully recounting Elara’s story.
Aside from Damon’s other identity being off-limits, everything else seemed fine to share.
...
Elara Don, with Bea, rode on Leia Quinn’s car back to their complex.
Getting out, Elara and her son stood at the entrance, waiting for Leia to park the car before going upstairs together.
Out of the corner of her eye, she vaguely felt someone getting closer to them.
Before she could turn, Leia, who had just parked, shouted, "Hey, what do you want to do?"
Elara quickly turned around, seeing two men in black rushing toward her direction.
Oh no!
There’s danger!
"Bea, run!"
Elara was startled, grabbing her son’s hand to escape.
However, the two men in black already reached them.
One pulled Bea away, while the other took out a handkerchief, covering Elara’s nose and mouth...
