Married at First Sight Chapter 1127

Chapter 1127

Upon seeing the light, the receptionist smiled and said, “That sounds about right. The child must be his wife’s nephew. I can’t believe the CEO would bring his nephew to the office. The way he held the child so gently makes it seem like he was carrying his own son.”

“He might be eager to become a father… Perhaps the missus is pregnant, and he’s practicing how to care for a child. He probably wants to be a very involved dad.”

The other receptionist was taken aback. Was that possible?

Deep in his sleep, Sonny remained undisturbed during the car ride and the walk to the office. His uncle finally laid him down on the bed in the private resting room.

Zachary bent over to remove Sonny’s shoes and socks before taking off his jacket. He then tucked the boy under the blanket.

The sight of the adorable child made Zachary’s heart melt. He leaned forward to kiss Sonny on the cheek.

“Sonny, every time I look at you, I dream of having a little boy or girl with your aunt.”

The nearly three-year-old boy was sound asleep, so he, of course, did not respond to Zachary.

Zachary stayed for a while before leaving the private resting room. Just as he stepped out, Mr. Chaplin knocked on the door and entered.

“Mr. Lewis is here, sir.”

“Okay.” It then occurred to Zachary that he was meeting Duncan to discuss a partnership. He gestured for Mr. Chaplin to let Duncan in.

Duncan strode into the office, smiling as he asked, “I heard you brought a child to the office, Zachary. Is it your illegitimate child? I can’t believe you. We’ve been friends for years, and you never bothered to tell me you secretly had a child.”

Though tempted to throw something at Duncan, Zachary couldn’t find anything of suitable weight.

He peevishly…

snapped back, “He’s not my illegitimate child. He has parents, you know. But someone cares for him a lot and wants to be his dad.”

“Sonny?”

Without hesitation, Duncan named Sonny.

Something felt off. Duncan was too quick to respond when Zachary mentioned someone wanting to be Sonny’s dad—as if he had confessed something.

It’s true that Duncan had a fondness for Sonny and wished he were his son. However, he did not have those feelings for Liberty.

“Who else besides Sonny? Other people may not know me, but how could you not? The community would be buzzing if I had an illegitimate child at this age.”

Zachary moved closer and invited Duncan to sit on the sofa.

Instead of sitting down, Duncan headed to the private resting room. He asked, “Is Sonny playing in the private area? Is he asleep? That explains why I didn’t see him when I was passing by All You Can Eat.”

“He’s asleep. Don’t wake him.”

“I won’t wake him. I just want to kiss his little face. I’ve been longing to nibble on him. How can he be so cute?”

Zachary allowed Duncan into the quiet zone, and Duncan took his time in the private resting room.

When he emerged, tenderness softened his rugged facial features. Judging by his satisfied expression, it seemed he had showered Sonny’s face with kisses.

“Sonny takes after my sister-in-law,” Zachary remarked unexpectedly.

Duncan approached the sofa and sat down, replying, “He does.”

There was no way he could kiss those chubby cheeks if the boy resembled Hank.

Noticing that his comment had flown over Duncan’s head, Zachary smiled without elaborating further.

“Why did you bring Sonny to the office?”

“Seren said she would take Sonny to her shop, but she woke up late today, so I brought him here. He’s

He’s asleep anyway; he won’t disturb me.”
“Oh.” Duncan didn’t see an issue with that.
“Would you like something to drink?”
“Just a glass of water, please,” Duncan replied. However, he got up and poured himself a drink regardless. He even scolded Zachary, “You never take care of me and Josh when we visit. We always have to handle things ourselves.” “Only you two seem to feel at home here.”
