“What do you want to do?” After being chased for a while, the police finally spotted the sports car behind them, so they pulled the police car to the side of the road and stopped.
“I’m sorry, officer,” Nina said incoherently.
Adrian pulled Nina behind him. “I’m sorry, officer, that’s how it is.”
Adrian explained everything to the police. Despite being criticized by the police, he still brought Lucas back.
“What kind of parents are you to not pay attention to the child.”
“I’m sorry for bothering you.” Nina blushed and bowed her head.
To avoid traffic jams, the police asked Adrian to drive away immediately.
“Lucas, you’re too much. Why are you running around alone? Do you know how worried your uncle Adrian and I are?” Nina began to scold Lucas.
“I’m sorry.” Lucas silently bowed his head. “Lucas won’t do it again. Mom, you don’t have to be angry, okay? And Uncle Adrian too.”
“It’s okay, Lucas. It’s best if you don’t do it again. You’re still young. It’s dangerous to go around alone and get lost.”
“Uncle, do you know about that super precious toy? It’s an impressive toy.” Lucas’s eyes lit up.
“Then let’s go buy it now.” Adrian turned the car around and headed to Roberts Group, the exclusive item sold there.
“I’m sorry, sir. This toy hasn’t been officially released yet.” The salesgirl said shyly.
“Didn’t the TV commercial say that a few sets have been released? I can buy it for any amount, I want it now.” Adrian smiled and said firmly. For this exception, the female staff could only call the company. Because this toy set was personally in charge of Leonard from the design to the start of construction, the call was quickly transferred to him.
“Whose voice is that loud?” Leonard asked with a cold laugh.
“General Manager, we still don't know the other party's background. I'm worried that they're here to probe us. General Manager, what should we do now?"
"Not for sale." Leonard hung up.
"Sorry, sir, our manager said that this toy set is temporarily not for sale. Our general manager only has one set right now."
"What? Roberts Group, right? Then I'll go directly to your general manager." Adrian wanted to tell Nina that he was going out but was pulled back by Nina.
"Adrian, what are you doing? It's okay if you can't buy it, don't make things difficult for others."
"Nina, I just received a notice from the head office that I'll be temporarily taking a leave of absence. I have to report back to the head office tomorrow, so we have to return to Canada immediately." Adrian didn't dare to look Nina in the eye and said.
"What? We've only been here a few days and you already want to go back. Adrian, can you stay? I found out that I like this place like I've lived here for a long time. Lucas and I will stay here and wait for you to come back, okay?"
"No way." Adrian looked panicked as he hugged Lucas and pulled Nina out.
"Uncle, you don't have to drag my mother like that, she will get hurt." Lucas protested.
"Nina, you are my fiancee now. Of course, you will follow me."
"I've always listened to you, now I want to be my boss for once. I like this place and want to stay. Adrian, can't you give in to me?" Nina pleaded.
Adrian's face was serious for a long time before he asked deeply: "Nina, you don't want to come back with me?"
"Adrian…."
"Okay, I respect your choice. I agree with you, I will quickly handle the matter there and come back right away. If you need anything, call me immediately. Nina, I absolutely won't force you to do anything." Adrian finally agreed with Nina, letting her and Lucas stay in this country.

"Hey, Assistant Harry, please take care of the sales department for me." Leonard was worried that something was wrong, so he sent his subordinates there to see what was going on.
"General Manager, the sales department said they left two minutes ago. Oh right, General Manager, there's one more thing. Today, the members of Gelex Group received a notice from the headquarters that they will be returning, and our project will be put on hold for later."
“What? Put it aside? They are dreaming. Don't stop, I will publicly call for investment." Leonard had just finished speaking when his cell phone rang again. When he saw that it was Paige, he immediately hung up. He had loved Paige before, but after divorcing Tawny, he had ignored her. But she had not given up on him in the past five years. Not long after, his cell phone rang again, this time with a text message. "Leonard, I have been wanting to go back to my country for the past few years. How are you? I miss you so much, your birthday is in a few days, and I wish you a happy birthday in advance."
Leonard glanced at the message and immediately deleted it. This woman had been trying to keep in touch with him. Speaking of his divorce from his wife, Leonard suddenly thought of the girl with black-rimmed glasses, Tawny. Her death had made Leonard live in regret and self-reproach for the past five years, without even having the chance to make amends with her.

"Lucas, don't you want to go to school anymore?" After Adrian left, Nina suddenly felt relieved, she felt like she was starting a new life. A life that truly belonged to her.
"Mom, can I not go to kindergarten? There's nothing to play there. I want to stay with Mom." This morning, Lucas suddenly acted spoiled and refused to go to kindergarten.
"No, Lucas, you have to listen. I want to find a job today." Nina smiled and stroked Lucas's little head.
“Okay, you go find a job. I’m going to school.” Lucas reluctantly put on his clothes.
After sending Lucas to kindergarten, Nina immediately started looking for a suitable job everywhere, but as soon as she heard that she had a child, people didn’t want to hire her.
“The flower shop across the street is currently looking for a flower delivery person. You can try.”
Nina sadly bowed her head and walked out of the shop, just as she was about to give up, a girl kindly told her the news.
“Really? Thank you.” Nina hurriedly ran to the flower shop, just as the other person said, the shop was currently short of flower delivery people.
“This job is very hard, can you do it?" The flower shop owner was really a kind person.
"It's okay. I like this job." Nina smiled like a blooming sunflower, making people feel full of sunshine.The shop owner nodded with satisfaction. "It can be done right now. This bouquet of forget-me-nots is for Roberts Group, remember to sign for it carefully." Nina took the bouquet and walked towards Roberts Group."Excuse me, do you know this person?" Nina pulled the guard to point at her notebook and asked."Leonard Roberts. This is our general manager." The guard widened his eyes, finding it hard to believe that there was someone who didn't know the CEO of Roberts Group. The guard conveniently took out a magazine cover, on which was a picture of Leonard, a handsome face that made everyone admire.Nina let out a soft cry, suddenly feeling a little scared. How could the first day of work be so hard? But no matter what, she couldn't give up halfway.Nina held the large bouquet and walked into the first-floor area."Ma'am, please wait a moment. Who are you looking for?" She was about
“Are you awake?” The gentle and soft voice sounded like a blessing from heaven. Nina opened her eyes and saw a strange young man sitting in front of her hospital bed.“I…. where is this?”“This is the hospital. I almost bumped into you just now, so the CEO ordered me to take you to the hospital. Moreover, the CEO said that you are not allowed to come to the company to send flowers anymore.” The man’s words filled Nina’s stomach with resentment.“Nina, you are really good. You can make Leonard sign the receipt.” The flower shop owner's eyes lit up with admiration. Although Nina had gotten Leonard's signature, she also encountered many difficulties.“Do you know why I still can't find a flower delivery person? Because most of my bills are from Roberts Group and Leonard, as you can see..." The salesman said softly. After Nina heard that, she felt scared all day yesterday. If that unexpected event hadn't happened, she would have returned home in a mess. Why is that CEO so arrogant?"Nina
"Nina. What's wrong with you?" The flower shop owner saw Nina limping, and he hurriedly ran over to help her."I'm sorry, boss. I'm a little uncomfortable and want to go home first."Although he didn't know what happened, seeing the tears on Nina's face, he didn't ask much. Turning back, he handed her a bouquet of sunflowers: "Cheer you up a bit.""If it's work, thank you, I'm fine." Nina laughed loudly. She took this bouquet of sunflowers and walked out onto the street.The weather was very good, the temperature was moderate, and the bad mood from before was quickly washed away by this warm air. Putting on the phone's earphones, there was harmonica music, it was her favorite sound. If it was before, when she encountered such a thing, her first reaction would be to call Adrian to complain. But now she wouldn't do that anymore because she didn't want to live off Adrian, she wanted to be able to build her world. So when Adrian wanted to find a maid, she didn't need a maid.Nina found a
On the second day, as soon as dawn broke, she completed the discharge procedures. Nina planned to take Lucas to kindergarten. Unexpectedly, as soon as she stepped out of the hospital door, she met Leonard's assistant, who looked at Lucas as if he had seen his savior."I finally found this boy." After saying that, he quickly wanted to go forward and hug Lucas."Mom..." Lucas hid behind Nina."What are you going to do?" Nina asked cautiously."He is my savior. If I don't find him, I will be unemployed." The assistant's words were incoherent. "You are the mother of this child, right? Come with me.""Let go. I'll call the police." Nina picked up her wallet and desperately hit the man. This situation quickly caused panic among the people around and someone called the police.“Police, this person seems to have a mental problem, he wants to take my child away.” Nina hugged Lucas and hid behind the police.“Hey…” The assistant was currently defenseless, no matter how he explained, he couldn’t
Leonard wanted to ask more, but at this moment, Aaron had already escaped from his grasp and ran away.It turned out to be the nun from the orphanage.“Mr. Leonard, we are very grateful for what you have done for the orphanage. Aaron, come out quickly and thank him.” The nun pulled Aaron’s small arm, but he still refused to come out.“Madam, I want to ask about Aaron’s situation,” Leonard spoke his mind, the thought of adopting Aaron flashed through his mind, making him extremely excited. “Aaron, go out and play.” She pointed at Aaron, speaking nonstop.“Aaron entered the orphanage more than four years ago, a pitiful child abandoned in an ordinary hospital, doesn’t like to talk, has an introverted personality, and is a bit autistic.”“Can I adopt him?” Leonard suddenly exclaimed, his words shocking everyone present.“CEO, there’s no need to be like this. You’re the single CEO of the Roberts Group, and you adopted a child who doesn’t look very good? If the media finds out, they’ll writ
“Your parents aren’t coming?” Lucas, who had no one to play with, was happy to see Aaron sitting in the corner, thinking that he had found his friends. “My mom isn’t coming.”Aaron didn’t even bother to look back. Lucas was worried and thought to himself, “They’re so busy, why didn’t you say anything?” After a long while without hearing Aaron speak, Lucas finally couldn’t help but ask.“I don’t have parents,” Aaron said very unhappily.“How is that possible? My mom said that every child will have parents.” Lucas looked at Aaron seriously and said, “She said that we all have parents.” These two little angels, although their circumstances were different, were the same. Lucas didn’t know what their parents were, but he didn’t want to admit it or didn’t know at all that he didn’t have parents either.“You go.” Aaron finally couldn’t stand Lucas anymore. But Lucas didn’t care at all. “Oh, how did you get this toy?” Lucas glanced at Aaron’s hand, which was holding the toy he had always want
"Mom, I don't want to eat this flavor of biscuit. Can you change it to another flavor?"“Mommy, I want that flavor.” Lucas stood in the cart for a while, pointing at this and then wanting that.“Lucas, you’re still young. There are many things you can’t eat. Be careful; you won’t be tall when you grow up.” Nina warned her son. “Also, eating too much sugar will cause cavities. Black teeth are embarrassing.”Lucas pulled down his hat, jumped out of the cart, made a face at Nina, and ran quickly to the other stalls.“Miss, can I ask…” Leonard heard the conversation at the end of the stall and immediately ran over. He originally wanted to ask what a child of this age liked, but he didn’t expect to meet Nina.“Why you?” Before he could finish his sentence, Nina pushed the cart out.“Mommy. Why are you walking so fast?” He pulled Nina’s shirt.“Because I met a bastard.” Nina carried Lucas onto the cart and hurried to the checkout counter on the other side. Leonard didn’t want to let her go,
Three days later, New Star Kindergarten welcomed a new student, Aaron."Everyone, we have a new student today." The teacher led Aaron out to introduce him to everyone. Lucas, sitting below, recognized Aaron at a glance.How could it be him?Furthermore, the teacher also led Aaron to sit on the chair next to Lucas's chair. This was a challenge for Lucas. Of course, Aaron also recognized Lucas, but he didn't pay attention. The other couple looked at everyone, his eyes and his father's had different ways of doing things, but the results were miraculously the same, although no one put him in their eyes, let alone he was the loser."Ah, aren't you the boy from the orphanage?" Having arrived at the orphanage, everyone recognized Aaron, but in fact, everyone had no other intentions, but they unexpectedly angered Aaron.He raised his little arm, angrily picked up a toy, threw it all over the ground, and even pushed a child down. At this time, the teacher and the babysitter were not in the roo
