Chapter 7 Like Father, Like Son

Looking at the woman with arms akimbo, Edison set the bowl and chopsticks down and climbed onto the table. Standing on the table, he looked down at her. "Mommy, do you wish to compete with me in terms of height or intelligence? I would win either way."

He proposed such a thing boldly. He was even more arrogant than her.

Tasha might've been bossy, but her son was even bossier.

This brat! Tasha was speechless. At a loss for words, she sat back down in the chair in frustration.

Her son was so cute when he was being sweet. However, whenever he acted arrogantly, no doubt he'd anger some people.

Seeing that he defeated Tasha, Edison giggled triumphantly. He then got off the table and sat back in his chair, swinging his little feet in the air.

After he took a spoonful of porridge, Edison started to say something with his mouth full. "Mommy, my IQ is three hundred. Do you really want to challenge me? You're dead!"

Edison's condescending tone sounded scarily similar to his father's.

Before Tasha could respond, the doorbell rang.

Edison quickly scuttled off to check the video intercom to see who was outside. It was Felix. "Mommy!" Edison shouted, "It's Daddy's assistant."

"I can see that," Tasha replied crossly. Then, her expression changed abruptly. She immediately put on a cold, expressionless face, intending to accept the challenge.

Seeing his Mommy's sudden change in disposition, Edison pouted. "Mommy, why are the people around you so stupid?"

"What?" She didn't understand why he asked such a strange question.

Edison pressed his palm to his forehead and sighed helplessly. "Your expression is so fake. Yet none of them can tell that you are pretending. Are they really that stupid?"

Tasha patted her son on the head gently. "That means your mommy is good at acting."

"Come on! Birds of a feather flock together." Edison rolled his eyes and added, "All idiots."

Ah, this brat! Tasha was speechless again. She felt somewhat ashamed of how her gifted son turned out to be.

Ignoring Edison, she went straight for the door and opened it.

Felix was a little surprised when he saw her weird outfit. However, he had been in this industry for years and had been trained by John to keep calm under any circumstance.

"Miss Su, our CEO wants to see you," Felix said expressionlessly. Then, he pointed to the luxury car parked at the gate. "Please."

With the car window open, Tasha could clearly see the silhouette of the man she loathed. After putting on a pair of shoes, she closed the door behind her and strode over to the car.

She stopped at the car, but didn't open the door.

"Get in the car!" John snapped.

Tasha pursed her lips reluctantly but did as he said. Before she could settle down, John pounced on her like a panther, pressing her against the car seat.

"You... What are you doing?”

Flabbergasted and taken by surprise, Tasha looked at the handsome man's face with wide eyes.

The car was actually quite spacious, but John was too tall and strong. Being pressed under him like this, she found it hard to breathe. Struggling, she tried to kick and squirm her way out from under him but to no avail.

John ignored her futile attempts and held her down firmly. Gripping her chin, he carefully examined the features on her delicate face.

Tasha was able to stand out among the other models, so it could be said that she was prettier and sexier.

Despite that, the longer he looked at her, the harder his expression became.

"You... What the hell do you want?" she asked with a trembling voice.

Five years ago, he had done something more intimate than this with her. So now, she felt both a strange yet familiar feeling under such physical contact. However, when she saw the man staring at her with his mysterious eyes, she suddenly felt a chill running down her spine...
