Chapter One

Chu International Group, a leading company in B City, had a number of businesses from many sectors; from hotel chains, the construction industry, large department stores, entertainment firms to amusement parks. People who lived in B City might not know their mayor, but they had surely heard of Stephen Chu, the leader of his big family businesses and one of the most sought-after business giants. Mr. Chu was not only successful and rich, but he was also an absolutely fascinating man who looked more gorgeous than most women. It sounds unreal, but one should see him say this was true. In addition, he was so smart and intelligent that he could defeat his competitors without them noticing. People tagged him as a "playboy" because he appeared in many various magazines. Not many knew about his secrets but rumors had it that Rebecca Li is Mr. Chu's favorite girl.

The gall of Chu international Group was lavishly furnished with statues, colorful inlaid marble, and a gilded bronze ceiling. A female officer with a five-year-old boy stood at the front desk. The woman with good features looked very cold and serious. She wanted to meet the Ceo without an appointment. The company had a regulation that no one could meet the Ceo without an appointment. This situation had never happened before and this caused the staff member serious trouble because the female officer insisted on meeting the Ceo at once. After she convinced the visitor about their policy, the staff member finally called the Ceo's secretary on the 88th floor for help.

"Mr. Huang, there is a female officer who wants to see our boss. May I let her in?" The staff member said.

"What? A female Officer?" Alex Huang quipped to his surprise. 'Oh God, What's going on? I know the boss has a lot of girlfriends, but when did he have a girlfriend that worked for the military? It's too hard to be an assistant. Why should I be responsible for both the daily work and the private life of my boss?' He complained silently. Although hesitant, Mr. Huang still walked into the Ceo's office to ask his boss.

"Boss, there is a female officer who wants to see you urgently, but she hasn't got an appointment. Do you want to see her or not?" Alex Huang smiled. His bright eyes were brilliant with delight.

"A female officer?" Stephen raised his head from the papers he was reading. he could not seem to remember any female officer in his past. "What does she want here?" He said as he focused on the paper again.

"She didn't say anything but she wants to see you immediately." Alex Huang grinned at his boss teasingly.

"Really? She must be very confident to demand to see with such short notice. Let her come in." Stephen Chu started to become curious about this woman.

The female officer whose name is Brielle Yang, was actually a little nervous as she tried to pacify herself. She was not sure whether Stephen Chu still remembered her or not. She was already nervously rubbing her palms together as she waited for the Ceo. Nervous as she was, Brielle never forgot the words that he shouted to her on their wedding night.

"You won't have me even if you married me. You are just my wife as started on a piece of paper. My heart and my love will never belong to you. You drugged me in order to have an intimate moment with me. How dare you! I promise I'll never let such a thing happen again!" The man said angrily.

He left with the sound of slamming doors. Brielle Yang felt completely lost and embarrassed at the same time as she didn't know anything about giving drugs. She just remembered that she slept in his arms without any clothes, body aching. The man accused her of these things she knew nothing about. What happened then was unclear in her thoughts.

What happened that night was too blurry for her. She could only remember feeling hot and helpless, unable to move. Maybe she was rugged too. Over the past six years, Brielle Yang had to deal with hearing gossips and rumors about Stephen Chu including his affairs with his many girlfriends and female stars. Worst, she would hear from the news whom he was dating or sleeping with.

Despite all these, she never contacted him. His words were forever stuck in her head, she could not forget when Stephen said that she was only a nominal wife. Whatever happened to him was non of her business. Actually, it seemed as if he had already forgotten her for a long time. She would not find him if there was no unexpected situation like this one. Both of them were victims of their family interests. It seemed that this marriage had a price to pay.

"Mommy, you're hurting me." The little boy interrupted his mommy's thoughts as he tried to squirm out from the tight grip of his mommy's hand. Brielle got lost in her thoughts for a while and didn't realize she held her boy's hand too tightly.

"I'm sorry, Ariel. I was thinking about something that happened before." Brielle squatted in front of the boy and whispered to him. This little boy was her son. She never thought that she would get pregnant after that night. Thanks to his genes and excellent skills, she now had this charming baby boy. Ariel was Brielle's life and she would not know what to do if she ever lost this boy.

"It's all right, I'm fine, Mommy. What's wrong? Is it my Daddy? Did he refuse to meet us?" Ariel asked with a soft voice. he looked at his mommy with bright eyes.

"No, honey, your daddy is a little busy so we will wait here until he is ready." She explained patiently. She hid nothing from her son about his father. Although he always asked why daddy does not live with them, He never really asked his mommy to find him.

"Madam, our boss is waiting for you." The staff member treated her with respect. She thought that there was something so familiar with the boy. But she couldn't remember whether she had seen him before.

"Ok, thank you! Brielle Yang politely replied. Then she quietly left. Brielle looked very serious and stern wearing army uniform but she also looked even more charming in it.

She could hardly hold back her excitement. Over the past six years, she tried to pacify her feelings and gave up on this relationship. however, she still felt nervous whenever she would see Stephen.

Brielle was getting everyone's attention because people had never seen a female officer in this building. Dressy celebrities and famous female stars were regulars.

"Madam, this way please." Stephen Chu's secretary there's her in. Brielle was evidently nervous as little beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She clenched her hands tightly while she held her son's hand. Ariel felt her mommy's emotions, he didn't remind her although he felt the pain as his mommy tightly as his mommy.he was not sure if his daddy, the man he always saw on the internet, love him too.

The secretary knocked on the door and a deep voice answered, "come in." Brielle Yang initially thought that she would panic if she heard this deep, familiar voice. Much to her disbelief, she was unexpectedly calm but she still tried her best to not look intimidated by the man in front of her. Stephen looked at her with a straight face. He thought that Brielle looked stiff and pale but definitely looked every inch a charming lady.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but I can't find better ways. Please take care of my son for 3 months. I will pick him up as soon as I finish my mission." Brielle Yang said as a matter of fact. She uttered these words without looking at him.

'Wait a minute, who are you? What are you talking about?" Stephen Chu was so confused thinking why he would take care of a little boy whom he did not even know. he noticed the woman in front of him could not look him in the eyes. Stephen was still so confused.

Although Brielle didn't really expect him to remember her, she was still hurt that Stephen did not even have a clue. She remained still and handed him a marriage license.

"I will answer all your questions when I come back, but I'm in a hurry right now." She explained. before she left, her mobile phone rang with a loud military song that echoed throughout the big office.

She picked up the phone quickly. "hello, Oliver. I know. I will be back soon. You can contact the army to get their location." She hung up the phone. her words were firm and clear as much as her feelings.

Stephen Chu froze as instant. 'Why? Why was this woman ignoring me? No one can resist my charm, am I not that attractive?' he thought to himself.

"Ariel, I should go now. Please behave and do not give your daddy a hard time." Brielle gently touched her son's face. her son's nanny resigned at a time when she needed to go for her military training at the army. She could not find someone to look after her son in a short time. Otherwise, she would not have sent the boy to his daddy.

Ariel looked at his mommy and wanted to say something to comfort her. 'Mommy, don't worry! I will be a good boy." he replied with a sweet smile. But Ariel was up to something. He already made a plan to teach his dad how to be a good husband.

After saying goodbye to her son. Brielle ran out quickly without even waiting for Stephen to even respond. Stephen Chu still was not able to recover from the fact that the boy was his son. Stephen only stared at the marriage license on the table.

"Brielle Yang," he murmured. She was the woman who was married to him for six-year. She was the wife that he never missed. She came and went, just like the wind, leaving the little boy with him.

Stephen Chu sat still on his chair as he watched the little boy in front of him. His little face resembling Stephen's had the calmness beyond his years and the little dark eyes looked coldly at him as if he was about to see something from him.

He would not take action before his opponent did. Ariel grew up in the army. All he was exposed to were military-related things, so he knew this rule well. This was his father. was he looking at him this way because he was stunned or was it that he just didn't like this existence?

"Little guy, what's your name?" Stephen Chu initiated as he squatted next to Ariel and whispered. So was this his son? It should be! Otherwise, that woman wouldn't have brought him here.

"Well, what's your name?" Stephen smiled playfully. "Ariel Chu." The little boy looked at him in such a way that Stephen would feel embarrassed. The little guy's arrogant expression was so cute.

'Ariel Chu,' It seemed that the woman did not want to conceal it from him all his life. His anger faded. Who could ever imagine that they had a baby in one night?

"Do you know that I'm your daddy?"

"Yes, mommy has told me before." Ariel shifted position. he was a little bit tired. He had come here early in the morning from the arm. It was almost noon and he was a little hungry.

"Then why didn't you come here to me before?" That was what Stephen was curious about. He was also interested in hos Brielle became a military officer. Was there anything he didn't know? At this moment, Stephen realized that he knew a little about his so-called wife. He didn't even know what she did.

"Mommy says you're busy and it's not convenient for us to bother you." Ariel expressed earnestly, still with that cool expression on his face. Despite his cute demeanor, his face looked sad beyond his years.

"Was it what your mommy told you? I'm busy." Stephen became unsettled. Yes, he was really busy, busy with flirting with different women. he had never thought that he would have a baby with his one-night-only wife. She had never contacted him and he had forgotten all about her existence. He even left the next morning after they got married. All he had done was demanding his secretary to send money to her every year. If she had not appeared unexpectedly today, he would have forgotten the existence of such a person in his life and his identity as a married man.

"Yes, we can see your affairs on TV every day." Ariel started to warm up but was also tactless and a bit straightforward with his daddy. Although his mommy told him that there were reasons why his daddy does not live together with them, he still couldn't understand why he had not seen them even once.

"Err... It seemed that you cared about me a lot." Stephen looked at his angry and sarcastic face, he couldn't help but laugh. Stephen charming looks even stunned Ariel.

'Who cares about you? If you were not there every day with that silly smile, we wouldn't bother to see you." Ariel was angry because every time he showed up with different women, he saw his mommy's eyes turn red and he knew that his mommy was sad then.

"What? Silly smile/ How could his extremely charming smile that can attract countless beauties became a silly smile in this little boy's eyes?

Ariel ignored his daddy as he playfully threw himself into the soft sofa. After all, he was just a little boy who just wanted to play.

"Are you hungry?" Stephen checked on his hand to look at his watch. His every action seemed so elegant and no doubt he could attract so many different women.

"Let's go! Daddy will take you to have lunch." Stephen Chu picked up his coat from the chair, cuddled Ariel, and walked out of the door.

He tried to reconcile the thought that he had a son. The woman he was married to didn't even give him the opportunity to say no and ran away. Although, he must admit that the boy was adorable. He could not believe he can be good-tempered despite the turn of events.

Three months? He looked forward to seeing if the woman would dare to ignore him again after three months. Stephen was challenged. he definitely loved the chasing game.
