“Daddy, we still haven’t found Mommy... You said we’d find her. You can’t lie to me.“Daddy, you promised to teach me programming, and I haven’t finished learning yet…”Hubert tightly gripped his father’s hand, gently shaking it, tears streaming down his face. “Daddy, don’t sleep. Wake up quickly…“Daddy, don’t leave me. I'm scared…”Tracey watched over Blair in the hospital bed and spoke too, “Blair, Hubert needs you. He’s still so young. Can you bear to let him become an orphan at such a young age?“Brother, for Hubert, please, you must wake up.”Nothing happened.Half a month passed quietly.On this day, Solomon came to the hospital to visit Blair.Hubert sat by the hospital bed, holding a book and reading to Blair.Seeing Solomon’s arrival, he closed the book, politely calling out, “Uncle Solomon.”Solomon went over to him and caressed his face. “How is your father today?”Hubert looked at his father lying in the hospital bed and replied, “Daddy is still sleeping.”Sol
Melanie placed one hand on her flat belly, looking down at Zoe with a proud expression, smiling as she spoke, “Ms. White, let me show you something.”As she said this, she took a medical report out of her bag and threw it to Zoe.Zoe furrowed her brows tightly, picked it up, and looked at it, but she could not understand.“What’s this?”“You don’t understand?” Melanie laughed. “Oh dear, I forgot, you’re a fool, of course, you won’t understand.”“You’re the fool!” Zoe retorted, hands on her hips, unreservedly.Kyle said Zoe was not a fool.Melanie did not bother with her and looked at Aunt Laura, who had walked into the room. “Aunt Laura, can you explain to her what this is?”Aunt Laura picked up the medical report and her expression changed instantly.“This…”She looked at Melanie’s stomach. She...she was pregnant with Master’s child?Zoe looked at Aunt Laura and asked, “Aunt Laura, what is this?”Aunt Laura looked at the prenatal checkup sheet, unsure of how to respond.P
At the Goodman Residence.As Kyle entered the house, he saw his parents and the Xephers sitting in the living room. When Melanie saw Kyle, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes. “Kyle, you’re back.”Kyle glanced at her indifferently as he ignored her. Instead, he addressed his parents, “Mom, Dad, why did you guys urgently call me back? What happened?”Floyd slammed Melanie’s pregnancy report onto the table. “You still have the nerve to ask. Look at the mess you’ve created!”Kyle raised an eyebrow as he walked over and picked up the report. He looked at it with a faint smirk. “Ms. Xepher is pregnant?”Melanie looked at Kyle. “Kyle…”Before she could finish, Kyle interrupted her. “Let me guess. Miss Xepher brought this pregnancy report to my house. Could it be that you want to say the child in your belly is mine?”When Klay heard this, he slammed the table, saying, “Kyle, from the looks of it, you don’t want to admit it, huh?”Already angry that his daughter was unmarried an
Thinking of this, Melanie plucked up the courage and said, “Kyle, I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”“Kyle Goodman, make yourself clear!”Klay glared at Kyle angrily. The conversation had reached this point, and if Kyle did not explain himself, it would seem like the fault lay with the Xephers.Kyle had been busy lately with the affairs of Blair and Mable. As he was already in a bad mood, Melanie choosing this moment to create trouble was like walking into his firing line.Initially, Kyle had wanted to save her face in front of the elders, avoiding embarrassment for her. However, since Melanie persisted in her stubbornness, he decided to expose the truth.Kyle took out his phone, opened the surveillance video of the hotel from the night of Klay’s birthday, and handed it to his father.“On the night of Uncle Klay’s birthday, I left the hotel at 8:30. When I walked to the hotel lobby, a waitress stopped me and gave me a room card, saying that Mom wasn’t feeling well a
The waiter, realizing the truth was out, immediately kneeled before Kyle, begging for mercy.“Mr. Goodman, spare me, I was blinded by greed for a moment. She gave me the drugs, it was her!”Pointing at Melanie, the waiter spoke loudly, “She gave me five hundred thousand dollars to put the entire packet of drugs into the wine, but I was worried about trouble, so I only put half of it. Mr. Goodman, please spare me. It really wasn’t me who wanted to harm you…”Melanie widened her eyes suddenly, pointing at the kneeling waiter. “You're lying! No...no…”Seeing Melanie denying it, the waiter immediately spoke up, “I have a recording, and the transfer records you gave me, I have them all!”It was his first time doing something like this, so he was afraid and unsure, and took precautions and recorded it on his phone.Monica glared sternly at Melanie and then turned to the waiter on the ground. “Bring out the recording and the transfer records!”The waiter tremblingly took out his phone,
Kyle did not care who that man was, it could not possibly be him.Melanie picked up the phone, but as soon as she saw the man in the room on the screen, she collapsed to the ground.It was a stranger’s face, not Kyle’s.“Who...who is this?” Jane was also stunned. Was it not her daughter adamant that it was Kyle? How could it be someone else?“No...this can’t be!”Melanie threw the phone, unable to believe or accept that she spent the night with a stranger.“The video is fake, you must have fabricated it! Kyle, how could you be so heartless, not even acknowledging your own child!”Kyle looked at Melanie with a cold stare, an icy gaze in his eyes. “If you still don’t believe it, when your belly gets bigger, you can do an amniocentesis for a DNA test.”Kyle was confident and straightforward, unafraid of the test. Hearing his son’s words, both Kyle’s parents were convinced that the child in Melanie’s belly could not possibly be his.With things at this stage, there were no mor
After resolving the matter, Kyle returned to the villa. As soon as he got out of the car, Zoe rushed out of the house. "Ky!" She was very worried about him. Ever since the last time Kyle received a beating at the Goodman Residence, Zoe had been particularly concerned every time he went back, worried that he would be beaten again. "Ky, did your dad hit you?" Kyle directly lifted Zoe up, her legs wrapped around his waist. As they walked toward the house, he replied, "No, Zoe, everything has been resolved." Zoe stared at him with wide eyes and asked, "Whose baby is in Melanie's belly?" "It's not mine." Kyle explained to Zoe, "The last time I saw her was at her father's birthday banquet. That night, she drugged me. Later, I went to the hospital for an infusion. You were also there. Do you remember?" Zoe nodded. "I remember..." Kyle carried Zoe back to the room and told her everything that had happened. After listening, Zoe glared angrily. "Melanie, that wicked woman i
Upon receiving the news, Kyle and Solomon rushed to the hospital and found Blair sitting silently on the hospital bed like a stone pillar.There was no emotion on his face even when he saw their arrival."Master Blair, you've finally awakened!" Solomon said excitedly, tears welling up. They thought he would be in a coma forever.Kyle looked at Blair with concern and asked, "Blair, are you okay?"Blair pinched his brow and nodded slightly. "How long have I been unconscious?""Fifty-one days, nearly two months."Kyle paused momentarily and continued, "During your unconsciousness, Tracey still hasn't—""Tracey?" Blair was looking at Kyle with his brows furrowing and uttered three words, "Who is she?"Kyle and Solomon were taken aback. Did he just ask who Tracey was?Italee, Rome.The Muller Manor.When Mable woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar environment and could not figure out what had happened.Someone was pretending to be a doctor that night and entered her hospit
