Fell in Love with Mr.Right at The Wrong Time novel Chapter 9

Having set the time and place for the appointment, Nicole briskly ended the phone call.

On the other end of the line, Joseph was holding his cell phone with his eyes full of disbelief. He had only called Lisa to give it a try, thinking that even if there was only a remote chance that she would agree to meet him, he had to strive for it. But who would have thought that Lisa would agree to meet him right away? He curled his lips with delight written all over his face. If I manage to get this done, my dad will probably think better of me...

Meanwhile, Nicole was coaxing Hayden to eat lunch. "Hayden, I've cooked some hot cereal. Let's hurry up and go eat it." She put her phone on the sofa before taking her son to lunch.

Hayden raised his little head and asked in puzzlement, "Mom, who were you talking to just now?"

"Your dad," Nicole replied.

Hayden's face lit up with a hint of delight. "Was it Colton?"

Nicole was baffled. How did this brat commit Colton's name to memory right away? Seriously, I don't want to see that sort of weird and conceited guy anymore in my life. "You and your wild ideas. Listen, Hayden, he's not your dad—your dad is Joseph!"

Hayden's initially cheerful little face fell at once. He pouted his lips, arguing, "He's not my dad! Colton is!"

Nicole was perplexed. Hayden had only met Colton once, so why would he assert right away that the latter was his father, as though he had been put under the latter's spell? "He's not! Stop daydreaming!"

In the afternoon, Nicole dressed in warm colors with a pure white camisole underneath a cream-colored overcoat, which made her look competent and yet mild-mannered. After wearing light makeup, she curled her hair and left her room.

Hayden was sitting in the living room watching TV. The instant he saw Nicole coming out, his eyes lit up involuntarily. "Mom, are you gonna hook up a new dad forme?"

Nicole looked discombobulated. Since when did my son become so liberal in thinking? "I'll be taking you to see your dad this afternoon," she said. It was 1:30PM right now, so they could dawdle for half an hour.

A look of surprise flashed across Hayden's face, and there was a note of joy in his voice. "Are we gonna meet Colton?"
