I was looking for you everywhere," Shawn said as he knelt down in front of Andrew, beaming at him.Andrew looked at him with confusion. This man claimed to be his father with such confidence, but Andrew didn't recognize him. Before Andrew could say anything, Shawn placed a finger on his lips and whispered, "I'm trying to help here. Let's pretend you know me, okay?"Although hesitant, Andrew decided to go along with it. "I'm sorry, papa. I ran off because I was so excited to show you to my friends. I guess we missed each other," Andrew said with a cunning smile directed towards Carl."Now, are you happy?" Andrew asked, feeling triumphant. Carl rolled his eyes and scoffed, calling Andrew a loser.

Shawn swiftly turned and crouched down to the little girl's level, his face stern. "Katherine Darling, how many times have I told you not to call me 'daddy' randomly?" He rubbed his cheek, his gaze fixed on her."But I..." Katherine began to protest."Katherine!" Another woman, who had been chasing after her, called out as she reached them."Oh, Shawn," the woman exclaimed upon seeing him.Katherine hurriedly made her way to the woman and hugged her tightly. "Mummy," she cried, holding onto her. The woman glanced at Shawn with a questioning look."Daddy Shawn got mad because I called him 'papa'," Katherine complained, while Amy looked down at Katherine with concern and then back at Shawn. "I'm so sorry, Shawn. She must have inconvenienced you," Amy said, her expression filled with worry.A smile curved on Shawn's lips. "No, not at all. Don't blame her, and it's fine," Shawn reassured, his previous anger dissipating. Cheryl had misunderstood the situation, thinking Katherine longed for

"Castle Corp?" Shawn raised an eyebrow, perplexed by Jeff's statement."That's Cheryl's company, right?" Shawn's secretary nodded in confirmation.Shawn leaned back in his chair, a sigh escaping his lips. It seemed like fate was toying with him."When is the shareholders' meeting scheduled?" he inquired, his mind racing with possibilities."It's on the 10th of next month," Jeff responded, his voice laced with concern.Shawn considered the timeline for a moment, weighing his options."That should give us enough time for..." he trailed off, his thoughts interrupted by a sudden voice at the door."What's enough time for what?" A vibrant brunette entered the room without bothering to knock, holding a file in her hands. It was Amy.Amy glanced between Shawn and Jeff, curiosity etched on her face as she settled into a chair opposite Shawn's desk."What's with the long faces?" she asked, placing the files on the desk and fixing her gaze on the two men.Shawn sighed heavily, feeling the weigh

"Hi!" Andrew's tiny voice cut into their little meeting, and Shawn instinctively turned, recognizing the voice. Slowly freeing Amy, a smile crossed his lips as he looked down to see the most important person in his life."Hi there," Shawn returned with a smile, squatting beside Andrew."We didn't get to talk before, back at school, but Mum said we could say hi," Andrew offered without being asked, while Shawn stared at him lovingly. This was his son. He couldn't believe it. The child he had wanted nothing to do with in the past. But now, as he watched him, he silently thanked Cheryl for keeping him."Shawn?" Amy called out, and Shawn turned to her, standing up. "Who is he?" Amy asked as she cleaned the tears from her face."Ah," Shawn chuckled nervously. "This is my son," he whispered to Amy, whose eyes widened."Your son?" Amy asked, her voice filled with surprise. Shawn turned back to Andrew."Where's your mommy?" he asked.Andrew turned, catching sight of Cheryl walking towards the

Shawn stood there, his mouth slightly agape, his gaze fixed on Amy's curious yet infuriated face. He struggled to find the right words to respond to her sudden outburst."What do you mean?" Shawn chuckled nervously, hoping to diffuse the tension that had enveloped them."Forget it," Amy snapped irritably, her patience wearing thin. "Katherine must be waiting for us."Unwilling to let her go without understanding her anger, Shawn reached out and gently held her hands, a desperate attempt to keep her from walking away. Amy turned to him, her eyes filled with frustration and a hint of betrayal, and Shawn could feel the weight of her gaze piercing through him.Staring back at her, Shawn felt a mix of confusion and concern. "I'm... I mean, I don't know, Amy," he stammered, desperately trying to gather his thoughts and make sense of the situation.Amy let out a curt sigh, her arms folding across her chest. "Okay," she said tersely, her voice laced with disappointment. She made another attem

Cheryl stood up as she paced around as if on a deep thought but she will well aware of two pair of eyes waiting for her answer. She stopped abruptly and turned to look at Helen who still had her boss under a gaze. “When did this proposal come in?” “Just this morning ma’am,” she replied. Cheryl face formed a frown. “Rejected,” she said out of the blue.“Ma’am?” Helen asked obviously confused at her remark.“The proposal,” She continued. “I don’t care how good it is, it is rejected.

“What?” She gave him a piercing gaze. “Aren’t you leaving?” “Like I said Cheryl I don’t plan on leaving,” Shawn said with a note of finality which was to Cheryl’s distaste. She showed it as she let out a scoff.“Like before,” he added as Cheryl regarded him seriously this time.“Why are you doing this, Shawn?” Cheryl asked after a moment of silence almost in a pleading tone.“Because I want to make things right,” he said while Cheryl rolled her eyes to the ceiling.“We don’t need you,” she said with a stern look. “We are doing pretty well without you Shawn,” Shawn stood there as he digested her words.

But it was far from over.“Andrew’s grew fond of me you know,” Shawn had a pained look.“I caused it,” Cheryl shook her head like she realized the mess she caused. “You don’t deserve to breathe the same air as my son,” Shawn watched her for a moment then moved towards her.

Cheryl gave Shawn a watchful gaze and turned to the phone that kept ringing and walked a considerable distance from both her son and Shawn.“Hey, Eric,” She said when she picked up.“Cheryl, there’s an emergency.
