Oops! My Secret Baby Is Caught By His Top-Lawyer Daddy! Novel

---- He ordered staff at the orphanage gate to ask anyone with pictures or videos to delete them. Nearby, Sebastian felt proud-Sue's daughter was definitely something special. Just as remarkable as Sue. After washing her hands, Clara stepped out of the restroom to find Sebastian still waiting. They walked toward the exit. Sebastian almost spoke a few times but stopped. Clara asked, "Sir, is there something on your mind?" He said, "Your mother-does she still live in Greystone? Can you give me her contact info?" Clara's face darkened. "My mom passed away five years ago.

Sebastian stumbled, face going pale, murmuring, "No... no way... that can't be..." Seeing him falter, Clara steadied him. "Yes. Even after all these years, it's hard to accept." His face turned ghostly pale, eyes moist with pain. "How? She was so young! Was she sick?" Clara saw his honesty and didn't hide the truth. "Yes. Depression. She took her own life." ---- Sebastian was devastated. He gasped, then weakly leaned against the car. His driver rushed over to support him. Clara hadn't expected such a strong reaction.

Besides me, was there really someone else who cared about my mom this deeply? Touched, Clara helped the driver guide Sebastian into the car. "Mr. Storm, are you okay?" He didn't answer, just gave a weak wave before the car drove off. On the way home, Leo looked up at Clara with awe. "Mom, you're incredible! You play piano beautifully, sing like an angel, and you even know how to save lives!" Clara ruffled his hair. "You gotta study hard too, Leo. One day you'll be even better than me." When it came to raising Leo, Clara wanted to be like her mom-always supporting whatever he dreamed of.

Back at his mansion, Sebastian sat alone in his study for over half an hour, still haunted. He buried his face in his hands, softly sobbing. The last he'd heard of Sue was over a decade ago. ---- A private investigator had told him she had a bright, talented daughter and a husband who shared her values. They both taught at a school and were happy. He'd decided then not to pry anymore. Just knowing she was happy was enough. Seeing her daughter now stirred excitement and anxiety inside him. If only I could see Sue one more time... But fate had other plans-life had separated them forever.

He opened a long-kept box on his bookshelf filled with photos and letters between him and Sue. Back then, he was a poor boy, and she was a rich girl. Both students of the famous piano master Caspian Everett, they spent every day together, secretly falling in love, hiding it from their families. By then, Sebastian was showing promise, accepted into the Royal Academy of Music. He wanted Sue to study abroad with him, but his parents said no, and Caspian disapproved, worried young love would distract them. Sue's passport was confiscated.

The night before he left, they stayed up late, promising ---- that Sebastian would come back in three years to ask for her hand. But less than a year later, news came that Sue had married and started a family-against her family's wishes. At first, Sebastian was full of bitterness. Later, guilt crept in. He quietly kept tabs on her for years. When he learned she was happy, he stopped searching. And he himself never married. Lost in memories, Sebastian remained trapped in the past, unable to let go.
