"Mommy, did you have a dream?"
A child's voice rang out from the nearest airplane seat.
Yvon Johnson awoke very suddenly by the noises, and turned to her son.
Harry, her five-year-old son, was sitting beside her, blinking his big eyes. "I heard you talking in your sleep."
Yvon started. "What did I say?"
"I didn't hear it clearly," the little boy muttered.
The corner of Yvon's lips twitched, and she relaxed slightly.
In her dreams, she still couldn't see the man's face clearly. The man who she had a one-night stand with, Harry's father.
Over the years, she still occasionally dreamed about that night five years ago. But she could never see the man's face.
He must have been a decent man, right?
Handsome, at the very least.
Otherwise, how could her son be such a good-looking little fellow?

As the plane gradually descended, the details of the city came into view. The boy sitting at the window suddenly turned and said excitedly, "Mommy, is daddy here?"
Yvon hesitated, then smiled and said, "Yes. I'll find you one here."
The boy pouted and said no more. He was clearly unhappy.
Yvon sighed as she watched her son turn away again. She felt guilty.
Raised by a single mother, her quiet and reclusive son probably wanted for a father's love.
"Baby, once I'm not so busy, I'll take you out to see the sights." She edged closer and tried to cheer him up. "Haven't you always wanted to come back with me?"
Little Harry maintained his pout and huffed, "We'll see."
The apple of her eye—her beloved son.
She didn't know who he took after, but it certainly wasn't her.
Perhaps it was because she just had that dream, but a thought suddenly flashed through mind - did Harry take after that man?
After they disembarked, Yvon headed to the luggage carousel. She pointed to a bench nearby and said, "Harry, dear, go sit there and wait for mommy. Don't run around."
Harry nodded. He stuck his little hands into his pockets and went to sit down.
He looked around and suddenly, his eyes lit up. A tall and well-built man dressed in a black bespoke suit walked by. His presence gave one a sense of security.
"Mommy had said something about finding a daddy for me, but surely her taste wasn't as good as mine." thought Harry.
Look at this man. He was not bad at all.
Harry stretched and jumped down from the bench to follow behind the man.

Daniel picked up the Luggage and approached the man in front of him. "Mr. Lyon." He then handed James Lyon the newly received message. "The information you asked for, sir."
James had just arrived back from Italy. He had not gone through the VIP entry just to maintain a low profile. For the same reason, he had brought no other bodyguards other than Daniel Carman.
Yet James still turned a lot of heads.
In a low voice, Daniel said, "The car is waiting outside. Senior Lyon has been asking after you for days. He doesn't know you're back yet."
James nodded in acknowledgement. As he headed to the exit, he suddenly felt a tug at his trousers.
He paused.
A clear voice rang out from behind. "Sir?"
James frowned and turned his gaze downward to see what "thing" was pulling on his trousers.
Daniel was also surprised, his heart jumping. He knew that Mr. Lyon did not like being touched by other people.
And now, this kid was pulling on his trousers. He was just about to speak when the little boy's face split into a smile and asked, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
James stood in shock for a dozen seconds.
Faced with such a question from a child he had never seen before, he couldn't get angry.
Daniel stole a glance at James. His face was cold, but there was no sign of anger.
Looking at the boy, Daniel felt he looked rather familiar...
"If you don't have one. I can introduce you to someone." The little boy still had his hands tucked into his pockets with a nonchalant expression. However, his childish face couldn't hide his pride. "My mommy. She's beautiful and capable."
Daniel almost fell on his face. Were all children like this nowadays?
They knew how to help their mothers find dates?
James frowned slightly and acted before he finished thinking his actions through.
He bent down and patted Harry's head. In a low voice, he said, "All right. If we meet again in the future, I'll let you introduce me."
Daniel's mouth dropped open in shock at his boss' answer.
