GoodNovelChapter 528 +25 BONUS Damon's expression was icy, his voice devoid of emotion. "You must be mistaken." "I'm serious! I didn't have tto take a picture because I was in a hurry, but I swear you'd be shocked if you saw this kid. I even wonder if he could be your long-lost son!" the other party exclaimed. "If that's all, I'm hanging up," Damon said.
"Wait, wait, wait... About the amusement park project that Prospectus Technology is bidding on-any chance I can still get in on that?" the other party asked.
"Cto the branch office tomorrow," Damon replied curtly.
Then, he hung up. Just as he was about to set the phone down, another call cin.

Nyla called Pauline to cand look after him while she prepared to head to the lab. Just as she moved, Mason woke up.
"Mom, can you not go to work today? Stay hwith me?" he asked.
His voice was raspy, and he sounded a bit whiny. Yet, there was an undercurrent of vulnerability as well.
Mason rarely asked for anything, let alone fussed like this. On top of that, he was still sick and Nyla's heart melted instantly. "Okay, I'll take the day off and stay with you," she promised.
