Elliot saw Rex and his tiny body trembled fiercely, subconsciously hiding behind the teacher.
Seeing him act like this, Rex was furious.
"Look at you, you don't look anything like my son. If it weren't for the DNA test, I would have thrown you away a long time ago. You're just a drag, making it impossible for me to pick up girls..."
The teacher frowned when she heard his words, displeased, "Mr. James, how can you speak to your child like that? As a father, you should set an example for your son, teach him by words and actions, you..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Rex impatiently interrupted, "Alright, alright, stop nagging. I'm tired of it! He's my son, I'll educate him myself, I don't need you..."
With that, he walked behind the teacher and rudely pulled Elliot out.
"Let's go, it's time to go home!"
Elliot's tiny body was pulled
Rex led Elliot by the hand into this luxurious villa.It was the first time Elliot had seen such a luxurious house.There was a garden in the front yard.Next to it was a swimming pool.In the back was a large golf course.He had only ever seen houses like this on the road but had never set foot inside one.Walking into such a house for the first time, he widened his eyes in astonishment, like a curious baby, looking here and there.Rex felt extremely unbalanced as he looked at Suzy living in such a luxurious house, while he and his son could only squeeze into a cramped rental house. Suzy and Sarah sat on the sofa in the living room.Seeing the shabbily dressed R
After getting the money from Suzy, Rex left Elliot alone in the motel and went out to squander the money by himself.Elliot skillfully took out a bag of instant noodles and put it into the old but clean electric rice cooker.While waiting, he took out a sudoku book from under the pillow and filled it out very seriously.Suddenly, the landline in the room rang.He put down the sudoku book and walked over to answer it."Hello!"The voice was calm and emotionless, like that of a robotic machine.On the other end of the phone came Charlotte's worried voice, "Elli, have you arrived home? When did you come back? Have you eaten?"Elliot glanced at the rice cooker in the distance. "I'm cooking instant noodles. They'll be ready soon!"Charlotte was surprised, "You're eating instant noodles? Didn't your dad
Rex stepped back in horror.His right foot slipped on the wet riverbank, causing a few pebbles to roll into the river, making a sound and splashing small water droplets.His legs instantly went weak, and he knelt down on the ground."Please, don't kill me. I'll give you anything you want. Money... you want money, right? I'll give you money... I'll give you all my money..."The man wearing the duckbill cap snorted disdainfully, "Blame yourself for offending the wrong people. We'll give you a quick death as a favor for your begging."With that, the two men approached Rex with their knives.Rex instinctively stepped back, but his foot landed on empty space, and he was too scared to move."Who sent you to kill me?"Apart from those he owed money to, he couldn't remember who else he had offended.If it
She saw it was an unknown number, hesitated for a moment, then answered and put it to her ear. "Hello..." A voice filled with agony came from the other end of the phone: "It's me..." This voice, even if turned to ashes, Suzy wouldn't forget. Her hand trembled, and the phone almost slipped from her grasp. Rex thought she didn't recognize him, so he explained, "It's Rex James..." Suzy forced herself to calm down and asked, "Why are you calling me?" In truth, what she wanted to ask was, why aren't you dead yet? Why haven't you died yet? But she knew that if she said those words, it would give herself away; Rex would surely know she had sent someone to kill him. She couldn't afford to alert him now. She needed to know where Rex was hiding
Rex was completely defenseless.Suzy fiercely stabbed the fruit knife into his body.The room immediately filled with screams.The smell of blood permeated the air.Rex sat on the ground, looking at Suzy in disbelief, a large pool of blood forming beneath him."You, you..."Suzy's eyes widened, her pupils almost popping out of their sockets as she looked down at Rex from above, a few drops of blood splattered on her face, making her look fierce and terrifying."You scum, you ruined me four years ago, and now you want to come back and destroy me again. I've finally climbed up to Ethan, I've worked so hard to get to where I am today, I absolutely can't let it all be ruined by you."Rex suddenly understood. His eyes widened abruptly."So, you sent those two killers last night?"S
Suzy pretended to call her assistant, asking them to find a tow truck. After some back and forth, three hours passed, and the mechanic still hadn't arrived. Suzy ended up fixing the car herself. Samantha looked at her expressionlessly, highly suspicious that she was just playing her. Once the car was fixed, Suzy drove Samantha back to the company. To avoid running into acquaintances, she deliberately chose a less crowded area of the company where few people walked around. After getting out of the car, Samantha couldn't help but say, "Don't contact me in the future, especially for such boring things like today. My time is precious." In short, she felt her time had been wasted. Suzy didn't get angry at her words. Instead, she smiled brightly. "Don't worry, I believe we won't see each other again in the future!"
Mr and Mrs. Fletcher took the pregnancy test report puzzledly.After reading the contents clearly, they frowned and said expressionlessly, "She's pregnant, but why show us the result?"Samantha looked puzzled. She didn't know who Mrs. Fletcher was referring to.Justin's handsome face sank, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.Just then, his phone rang from his pocket.Seeing the call was from Karen's bodyguard, his expression darkened even more.He answered the call and put it to his ear, "What's the matter?"The bodyguard on the phone and the steward spoke simultaneously; “Sir, something bad happened. Miss Karen has been rescued.”"Miss Karen was outside, she said the child in her belly belongs to the young master."
Coming out of the Fletcher family, Justin was afraid that Samantha would overthink things, so he held her hand and comforted her, "Sammie, trust me, I will handle this matter well. I will absolutely not let you or Charlotte suffer."Samantha naturally believed him.Especially after Karen had done a series of bad things."Well! I trust you! But Karen is cunning, so be careful. Since she dared to come, she must be fully prepared."This matter might not be easily resolved.Justin smiled happily, "Are you caring about me?"Samantha gave him a glare, "What do you think?""I think you are caring about me!" Justin laughed like a child.Samantha shook her head speechlessly, then changed the subject, "My grandfather will be discharged from the hospital in two days. I plan to bring him to my house. He doesn't know about our mar
After the family recognized each other, Charlotte, Alexander, and Noah returned to Chelsea Creek. Elliot and Grandpa Miller stayed at home. After a bit of fussing, the three kids finally fell asleep. Samantha sat by the bedside, gently stroking their little heads, her heart filled to the brim with an unprecedented sense of contentment. After watching for a while, Samantha bent down and kissed each of them on the forehead before reluctantly leaving the room. Ethan leaned against the corridor wall, his long legs elegantly crossed, his eyes fixed on her without blinking. Seeing her coming out, he strode over. "Wanna talk?" he asked. Samantha nodded in agreement. The two returned to the room. Ethan hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her neck, and said hoarsely, "Samantha, let's get married!" The sudden proposal left Samantha somewhat bewildered. She stiffened and asked, "Why do you want to marry me? Because I'm the mother of your three children?" If it was just because
Hearing their tearful words, Samantha's heart ached. She hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying? Who bullied you?" Alex sobbed, "Mommy, you are our biological mother." Samantha had always known that they wanted her to be their biological mother, but she didn't take their words seriously, thinking they just missed her. She said gently, "Silly children, even though I'm not your biological mother, I've always treated you as my own." Especially after finding out that Elliot was Suzy's son, and considering the ominous situation regarding Alex and Noah's birth mother, she cherished them even more. From then on, she no longer had any concerns about interacting with them as she did before. Alex let go of her and hurriedly explained, "No, you are our biological mother in terms of blood relationship." Samantha asked puzzled, "Who told you that?" She didn't remember giving birth to a pair of twin sons. Noah said, "Fath
After the meal, Samantha couldn't wait to go home. She retrieved her phone from her bag and opened the recording app.Soon, Suzy's voice filled the room:"How could you be with Samantha?""I don't care why you're with Samantha. If you dare to tell her about our relationship, I won't be polite to you.""...""Stop pretending. You know what I'm talking about! If you dare to reveal our relationship, I will make sure you have nowhere to hide. I've killed your father, and I won't hesitate to kill you too.""It's best if you don't acknowledge me! Remember what you said. I'm not your mother, and you're not my son. We are two strangers who don't know each other. If our relationship is discovered by others, I will make sure you find your father in hell soon, and Samantha will be in trouble again."The recording ended.The phone fell silent.Samantha widened her eyes in disbelief, her face
The mother and sons hugged each other tenderly for a while before Alex and Noah pulled Samantha inside.Confused, Samantha turned to Ethan and asked, "What's going on? Is my case resolved? Am I innocent?"Ethan remained silent, sitting on the sofa with a cold expression.Alex held Samantha's hand and explained, "Mommy, do you know how much effort Daddy put in to save you? He went to great lengths to get the dashcam from Albert and then found the programmer who deleted the records, forcing the programmer to recover the records for that day. That's how you were released without charges. Otherwise, you would still be locked up in detention."Surprised, Samantha looked at Ethan, unable to believe that he had actually saved her.She moved her lips slightly and slowly uttered two words, "Thank you."Ethan's icy expression began to melt visibly. He glanced at Samantha faintly.Although he still looked proud, Samantha knew that he was in a go
To find out Samantha's situation, Alex and Noah did not stay for dinner.After hurriedly bidding farewell to everyone, the two of them took a taxi directly to a private detective agency, where they paid a hefty sum to hire a detective to investigate Samantha's situation.They knew that even if they went back to ask their father, he wouldn't tell them the truth.So, they decided to take matters into their own hands.Private detectives have extensive networks, and in less than half an hour, they had tracked down Samantha's whereabouts."Samantha, female, twenty-three years old, the eldest daughter of Lloyd Miller, the CEO of the Miller Group. She was taken away by the police for murder last night and is currently being held in custody."After saying this, the detective handed over the data and photos that were transmitted to the computer to Noah and Alex."Take a look, is this the person?"Alex and Noah's hearts were pounding as
Jade nodded, confirming, "Yes."Ethan squinted, a layer of frost enveloping him.Albert took away the dashcam?What does he want to do?And what does this have to do with him?Seeing his thoughts, Jade asked, "Boss, should I have someone investigate?"Ethan shook his head, "No need, you can leave!"Jade asked in surprise, "What about Miss Samantha?"Ethan lazily leaned back in his chair, slender fingers playing with a pen, lips slightly curved as he scoffed, "What about her? If the police station calls saying she wants to see me, then you can come find me."Jade was first stunned, then realized.Ethan was planning to make Samantha apologize first?Recently, Samantha deliberately kept her distance from Ethan in order to marry Justin, which had put Ethan in a very bad mood lately.As a high-end hunter, he naturally wouldn't take the initiative, just waiting for the other party to 'fall into the trap' w
Sarah confirmed repeatedly, "Is Charlotte's mother named Samantha?"The principal took out her phone, pulled up the information, and nodded. "Yes, Charlotte's mother is indeed named Samantha."Sarah's expression became even more unpleasant, her mood more complex than ever. "When was Elliot taken back by Charlotte's mother? Why is he at Charlotte's house?"The principal recounted the whole story truthfully."Poor Elliot, when he first transferred to our school, he was withdrawn and ignored everyone, always sitting alone in the corner. Later, the teachers found signs of abuse on him. Through investigation, they found out that he had no mother since he was little, and his father was often drunk and abusive due to gambling. It's not easy for him to survive till now."Thinking that Sarah had donated a scholarship to Elliot, she must care about him and be a kind-hearted person. Therefore, she didn't hide anything and told Sarah the truth about Elliot's s
Albert nodded, assuring her, "Don't worry, no matter what it takes, I will get you out."Samantha's calm heart stirred slightly at Albert's words. She couldn't help but feel moved by his sincerity. However, her feelings were purely gratitude, nothing more."Mr. Davis, can you do me a favor?""What is it?""Could you contact Yurika for me and ask her to temporarily stay at my house to take care of my grandfather and the children? My grandfather is old and has limited experience. He can't always pick up and drop off the kids for me. As for my situation, you can tell her the truth. She's the person I trust the most so far."Albert readily agreed to her request.After chatting with his lawyer for a while and giving him a detailed understanding, Samantha was taken back to the detention center.Looking at the cold walls around her, Samantha felt helpless and fearful for the first time....Not long after Albert left, Suzy was
Samantha gathered her thoughts and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I have a witness."The police asked, "Who?"Samantha replied, "My sister, Suzy Miller, She invited me out that day, and we were together the whole afternoon. You can go ask her if you don't believe me.""Legally speaking, she's your sister, and her testimony cannot be used as evidence."Samantha forced herself to remain calm. "There's a dashcam in her car. Her car broke down that day, so the dashcam should have recorded both of us."The two policemen exchanged a glance.The one who had been questioning her said, "According to procedure, you cannot leave for now. We'll go find Suzy and clarify the situation. If she can indeed prove your innocence, we'll release you immediately."After saying this, they had Samantha locked up
