Joseph's lips curved downward, the smile fading from his face.

Elvis continued, "Erik was one of the four sons of the Carrington family and also a top-tier actor. Recently, he starred in a drama called The River's Melody. For this role, the production team even found a young actor who closely resembled Erik in childhood photos."

Little Spark...

That day, when he arrived at the Carrington Manor, he saw Elianna holding a little boy in her arms, and that was Little Spark.

The child, Little Spark, was introduced by Elianna as her illegitimate son, someone she had brought into the Carrington family.

He was half-believing and half-doubting.

The child looked strikingly similar to her, which seemed plausible.

Yet, Joseph couldn't shake the feeling that the way Elianna interacted with the child seemed more like a performance than a genuine mother-son bond.

It all felt rehearsed, leaving Joseph with lingering doubts.

This prompted him to instruct Elvis to look into Erik's background, which led

    Underneath the Ferris wheel.Owen was staring blankly at the drifting hydrogen balloons in the sky.Little Spark ran over and asked, "What are you looking at?"Owen pointed to the sky and said, "Look, there are so many hydrogen balloons."Somewhere in the world, another child must be sad. Owen couldn’t help but wonder which unlucky kid had lost their helium balloon, watching it float so high and far away.Little Spark also looked up with his neck stretched.The two boys had been playing non-stop, their laughter echoing as they darted between rides—the flying swing, carousel, pirate ship, and bumper cars.By now, they were covered in sweat, their hair sticking to their foreheads under the hot sun.He asked, "Little Spark, do you want ice cream?"Little Spark nodded.Behind him, Leonard walked over and said, "If you want ice cream, let Uncle buy it for you."Owen turned around and gave him a blank look without expression.Leonard smiled at him.‘Is he trying to butter me up so he can b

    Joseph parked the car at the entrance of the park.He had just gotten off the car, and Elvis had just walked out of the park, with a face full of anxiety and confusion.Elvis had contacted the park staff, and a missing person announcement was broadcasted. All entrances and exits had been locked down, but with so many tourists in the crowd, searching for a small child was like looking for a needle in a haystack.Joseph got out of the car and walked up to Elvis.Elvis was so intimidated by him that he didn't even dare to look up.Joseph coldly questioned, "What exactly happened?"Elvis recounted the details.Afterwards, he took a deep breath and his voice trembled, "After that, I deployed additional manpower for a thorough search. We’ve combed through the entire park, but there’s still no sign of the young master."Joseph furrowed his brow slightly.Elvis felt ashamed and said, "Mr. Kensington, I take full responsibility. I… I failed in my duties…"He had already been incoherent and did

    Zack widened his eyes, and his eyes sparkled brightly.He looked up at Elianna, whose indulgent expression softened further as she called him "sweetheart." She even knew today was his birthday!Zack asked, "How did you know today is my birthday?"Elianna chuckled softly. "How could mommy forget your birthday? Mommy always remembers. So do all your uncles! You’re the greatest gift God ever gave me—my little angel."Zack's face blushed slightly.Although he had too many questions in his mind.He didn't know any of these men, but the indulgence and concern on their faces were genuine and heartfelt.The biggest question was that he was clearly not "Owen", yet the beautiful aunt kept calling him "Owen". He had no idea who this person was that she referred to with that name.Could Owen be her son?If so, how was it possible that he and this mysterious Owen looked exactly alike? Were they... twins?He remembered a pair of identical twins from his kindergarten class. The resemblance had been

    The man paused and then declared, "Listen carefully, what I want is cash!"Joseph said, "It seems Mr. Winthrope is not sincere enough in our business negotiations. Let me remind you, we've done business before, and you know I prefer to state the price clearly when I negotiate.""Vincent decided to be frank. "I don’t want to haggle either. I have just one hour. How much can you gather in that time?"Joseph coldly curled his lips and said, "Within one hour, I can gather 8 million dollars."Vincent became excited and shouted angrily, "8 million? Joseph, do you think I'm a beggar? You, a top entrepreneur, with your credit and resources, should be able to raise billions in cash within an hour!"Livia's heart tightened, and she became restless, unable to sit still.After all, Vincent had a bomb strapped to him.If this situation escalated further, and irreparable damage was done, she would have no choice but to take drastic action. But even in such a crisis, she knew that it wouldn't be wor

    Joseph said, "Open it!"Vincent was startled.Joseph grabbed his tie and shouted sternly, "I told you, don’t play games with me! Activate it now, immediately!"Vincent said, "How can I be sure I can safely leave the country?"Joseph said, "If you don’t open it now, you won’t even make it out of this door!"Vincent said, "I have explosives on me! Aren’t you afraid that we’ll both perish together?"Joseph shouted at it, "Open it!"Vincent was completely overwhelmed by his presence.He trembled all over and looked at Joseph, the man's eagle-like gaze pierced his heart and made it quiver.After taking a deep breath, he said, "Alright, I’ll activate it. But you must guarantee that I can leave unharmed!"Joseph’s response was direct. "You just go. No one will stop you. I speak in earnest."Vincent turned around and walked to the suitcase, dialing the combination lock.A loud click echoed through the room as the lock snapped open.Inside the suitcase,Owen curled up in the box, holding a cut

    It was midnight.Owen lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.After dinner, Joseph helped him take a bath, then carried him to bed and put him to sleep.Pretending to fall asleep, Owen opened his eyes as soon as Joseph left the room.Owen gently patted his round belly, hummed, and his little brain was a bit confused.So—is he considered kidnapped now, or not?At first, Owen had thought the "devil king" was a kidnapper, someone who had taken him for ransom. However... the devil king didn't seem to know his mommy. He had never called her, and, to be honest, he was very kind to him. Not only did he celebrate Owen's birthday, but he also gave him a delicious birthday cake.With this in mind, Owen couldn't help but pout his lips, wanting more.Where would a kidnapper treat his hostage so well?Is it possible that the devil king is actually a good person?Owen's mind was filled with wild thoughts. Perhaps, the devil king had a son who looked similar to him, and that's why he misto

    Starlight Kindergarten covers an area of over 50 acres. The facilities and decorations throughout the campus are warm and lovely. As Owen and Joseph walked through the grounds, children—some barely taller than Joseph’s thigh—trudged past with their small backpacks, holding onto their parents’ hands.As they passed by him, the little kids all raised their heads in astonishment, looking at this colossal figure, and they all got scared and hid behind their parents.At the door of Sunflower Class.The head teacher was welcoming the children into the classroom when he saw Joseph walking towards him, holding Zack. He immediately greeted them warmly, saying, "Hello, are you Mr. Kensington?"As a kindergarten teacher, the teacher was familiar with every student's parents, but Joseph was unfamiliar.Fifteen minutes ago, she received a phone call from the principal, saying that a child named "Zack Kensington" was coming to enroll in school. Presumably, this man is the "big shot" that the princi

    Zack said, "I never knew I had a biological brother."Owen said, "Mommy never told me that I had a younger brother."Zack coolly retorted, "Why are you so sure I’m your younger brother? What if I’m the older one?"Owen's eyes rolled around in a circle, then suddenly stuck to his face. He moved his hand up to his head and gestured, saying, "We’re about the same height. What makes you think you’re the older brother?"Zack stared blankly for a while before disdainfully saying, "Are you an idiot?"They were twins. When they were born, the time difference between them couldn’t have been more than an hour.If Zack was the older brother, it would only be by a tiny margin.And yet, Owen was judging based on height?Childish.Zack thought this way in his mind, however, his body instinctively stood tall and lifted his head.Owen, however, did not notice Zack's small actions. Instead, he rubbed his chin and suddenly realized, "So, I disappeared, and Mommy never looked for me because she always h

    Leonard immediately let go of Joseph and walked over, saying, "Elianna, are you awake?"She didn't know when she woke up, nor how much of the conversation between the two people she had overheard.Elianna rubbed her temples, clearly feeling a bit of a headache.She instinctively pulled the thin blanket closer to her body, took a brief rest, and the alcohol seemed to sober her up a bit. Naturally, she also realized how disheveled she was at the moment.Elianna knowingly asked, "Was I drunk?"Even if she drank until she was completely drunk, she wouldn't black out. Therefore, as she woke up, she gradually began to recall that she had been drinking and afterwards, she became crazy drunk.Joseph said expressionlessly, "Yes, you were drunk. Originally, I intended to arrange a designated driver to take you home, but who knew your alcohol tolerance was so disappointing. You went crazy at my house and..."He also vomited all over him.

    The butler, seeing the situation, immediately rushed over and reached out to stop him, saying, "Mr. Leonard, please wait!"Leonard suddenly angrily waved away the hand he extended, saying, "Get lost!"The butler was dismissed to the side.Leonard climbed up the stairs.Joseph hesitated for a moment and then followed closely behind, going upstairs.Second floor.Leonard saw the servant just coming out of a room, without thinking, he immediately walked over. The servant, seeing this, became somewhat alarmed and asked, "Who are you?"Leonard casually pushed her aside and pushed the door wide open.In the guest room.Elianna was lying in bed, covered with a blanket.Leonard walked over and saw that she was fast asleep, completely unconscious. He furrowed his brows slightly and reached out his hand, intending to lift the blanket.The next secondBehind him, a hand reached out and tightly grabbed his wrist

    Joseph carried Elianna into the door.In his arms.Elianna, on the other hand, kept looking up at him with her face raised.Suddenly,She said proudly, "My son grew up and turned out to be so handsome!"Joseph, "..."Elianna, "However, my son was the cutest when he was little!"Joseph, "..."Elianna, "Baby, be good and let mommy give you a kiss quickly."She hooked his shoulders, cradled his face, and kissed him over and over again.Joseph suppressed the anger that filled his chest, but had nowhere to vent it.He was still doubting why she wanted to recognize Zack as her godson and what her true purpose was.Or perhaps, it was just another means for her to get close to him.Was she really drunk and talking nonsense, or was she pretending to be drunk to take advantage of him?If he was really drunk, what could he argue with a drunk woman for?A south-facing room on the second floo

    Joseph furrowed his brows.He saw her tongue starting to knot, her eyes wide open but looking misty.Joseph said with a headache, "Sit down and don't move for now."He had just grabbed her shoulders and forcefully made her sit down, but the next second, she "sprang" up again, saying, "I want to go home!"Joseph interrupted her, "I will take you home!"He grabbed her hand and pulled her up.Elianna stumbled and took two steps, her balance wavering as her body leaned backwards.Joseph walked over and grabbed her waist, coldly saying, "Can you walk properly?"Without giving Elianna a chance to answer, he bent his right arm from her waist side and hoisted her onto his shoulder."What were you doing..."The man's strong shoulders were just pressing against her abdomen.Elianna drank alcohol and just finished eating pastas, feeling a bit uncomfortable. Her stomach was being tightly pressed, and she felt a wave of

  • My Ex-Husband Wants Me Back   Chapter 196

    Elianna asked, "Is the pastas done?"Joseph resealed the wine and said, "Finish your meal quickly, I will have someone take you home.""Oh!"Elianna stood up, and in that moment, her blood flowed and she felt a slight stumble beneath her feet, her body even swaying, as if she was floating lightly.Oh no...She seemed a little tipsy.That's how high-concentration brandy was.She was clearly drinking very slowly, and even added ice cubes to dilute it, but... she had already started to get tipsy.Joseph saw that she was a little unsteady and reached out his hand to support her. "Are you drunk?"Elianna pulled away from his hand, clearly repulsed by his touch. "No! I wasn't drunk."Joseph withdrew his hand and stared at her incredulously.Elianna concealed her drunken state, barely maintaining her balance as she walked towards the dining table. Upon seeing the bowl of pastas placed on the table, she approached

    Elvis looked at Joseph awkwardly.Joseph said, "I could only make plain pastas."Elianna said, "Then thank you for your trouble."After speaking, she sat down on the sofa.Joseph said to Elvis, "You go first."Elvis said, "Mr. Kensington, do you need me to lend a hand?"Joseph said, "No need."It's just a bowl of assorted vegetarian pastas, without many complicated steps, just takes some time.What is this called? It is easy to ask for the gods, but difficult to send them away.The "god" he had invited could only be sent away by himself.He could certainly tell that Elianna was deliberately giving him a hard time, but since she had helped him pacify his son, it was also a favor he owed her.Elvis smiled and said, "Alright, I'll go back first. If you have any instructions, feel free to call and contact me anytime."Joseph, "You haven't rested much these past few days, go back and get some sleep early.

    Zack said, "Only when Owen and I turn eight years old, can we apply to live with Mommy and Judge Uncle, in order to let that man know the truth?"Elianna nodded, "Yes."Zack nodded hesitantly.Elianna helped him lie back on the bed and gently said, "Once we've eaten, shall we have a good sleep?"Zack became nervous and asked, "Mommy, are you leaving?"Elianna said, "I promised you that you could see me anytime you wanted."Zack's eyes revealed a hint of surprise and delight, "Really?"Elianna, "Really, Mommy promised you."After speaking, she extended her hand and said, "High five."Zack and she high-fived, and then closed their eyes in peace.Elianna didn't stand up and walk out of the door until he fell asleep.Joseph stood at the door.Elianna's heart skipped a beat as she thought Joseph should be downstairs, but suddenly he appeared upstairs out of nowhere. She had no idea how well the door insul

    Zack suddenly burst into silly laughter, opened his mouth, wanting to shout "Mommy". However, he didn't have enough strength to even speak, and could only weakly say, "I want to go home..."Elianna's heart trembled for a moment, feeling inexplicably melancholic.On the side, two doctors smiled helplessly and said, "little scion, you are already at home now..."They only thought that the child was extremely hungry, confused in the mind, and started speaking nonsense.Only Elianna could understand which "home" the little one was referring to.Elianna coaxed, "Would you like to eat something?"She saw a bowl of nutritious porridge on the bedside table.I was so hungry that it caused me to be unable to eat properly now, I can only drink a little nutritional porridge.It seems that this time he was determined to sever the father-son relationship with Joseph.Maybe because he had been fasting for a long time, the little guy ha

    Elianna suddenly became serious and said, "Well, you shouldn't say such hurtful words either."Owen lowered his head and said in a pitiful tone, "Mommy, I know I was wrong! Next time I see him, I will definitely apologize to him."Elianna patted his little head and said, "You were brothers, good friends, so you couldn't hurt his feelings."Owen nodded obediently, "Mommy, don't worry, I know now! I will never hurt his heart again in the future."Elianna gently embraced him.Owen nestled in her arms and asked, "So... when did that guy come back?"Elianna worriedly said, "I don't know..."She didn't know when they would be able to reunite as mother and son again after this separation.Tristian said, "Nannan, don't overthink so much and rest early."Elianna nodded.The next day.Elianna took Owen back to the Carrington Group.Three days later.She had just left the company and was about to go home
