Baby Cupid: Could You Be My New Mommy (or Miss, My Father loves you)

Chapter 20 Bedtime Stories

"Leave it to me."

Daryl roughly understood what was going on. Zack, being the biggest investor, pulled some strings. And the film company gave the leading role to her right away.

Besides, before she quit, Daryl was the most popular actress. She possessed both the acting skills and beauty perfect for the entertainment industry. This was risky, though. It had been five years since Daryl left the circle. They didn't know if her acting skills were still the same.

Her statement made Sofia curious, so she asked, "Did you agree to be the boy's stepmother?"

"Yes,"

Daryl replied. To keep Sofia from spreading such news, she added, "But you have to keep it a secret for me, or else, Zack will kill me."

She was exaggerating. If Zack was really mad, he might at most ban her from the entertainment industry.

"I know."

Sofia had been in the industry for so long that Daryl's situation did not surprise her.

Most actresses kept their relationships with businessmen as secrets, but Daryl took it up a notch. She got married to one, not just an ordinary tycoon, but to the most powerful man in D City.

After hanging up the phone, Daryl was thinking of how to tell Zack about her upcoming shooting when Benjamin rushed into her arms.

"Wow, Mommy! Will you be shooting your film?"

Benjamin heard his mother talking on the phone. He was delighted with the fact that she could finally do what she wanted.

Holding Benjamin in her arms, Daryl felt warm. She smiled to him and said, "Yes. Are you happy for your mommy?"

It was the first time that Daryl called herself Benjamin's mother. She was a little nervous, but she felt good.
