Chapter 2178

Author: Anastasia Marie
“I’m coming to Lanford with my wife and kids for the next couple of days to visit the Stanton family. You won't say no to that, right?” Jackson said.

Weston paused momentarily before saying, “I wouldn’t want my son to go back to Solaria before he is familiar with Lanford.”

“Don’t worry. He’s a Stanton, and it’s only right for him to remain in Lanford. I'm just bringing the kids over for a visit.”

“Well, you guys are welcome to come over anytime.”

Both men made arrangements and ended the call.

Weston came out from his study and went to the piano room after looking at the time.

He knew that Fred should be practicing in the piano room at this hour.

He hadn’t expected Fred to play the piano so well. After listening to Fred's performance, even the renowned pianist in Lanford said that Fred was extremely gifted although he was a little weak in conveying his emotions because he was still young.

However, the piano skills he had mastered were already far beyond those of his age.

    The man brought Jackson and his family to a private room. After they entered the room, they realized that there was only Weston in that room. Fred was nowhere to be found. Jackie’s smile dropped immediately. “Where’s Fred?” She asked anxiously. “Fred has to attend a class today, so he can’t be here. He knows you guys are coming and has asked me to treat you well.” Weston smiled at Jackie.“Where’s the place? I’ll meet him there. I have something to give him in person, and I have to apologize to him! I know that he didn’t push Yanny down the stairs and he saved Yanny. Otherwise, Yanny would have gotten hit with an air gun,” Jackie said. Weston raised an eyebrow at Jackson and Serenity.Serenity had told Weston about what had happened. “It was a misunderstanding. Everyone misunderstood Fred previously. I also want to talk to him about this matter. My kids want to apologize to him too.” “It’s fine since the incident has been cleared up. I will tell Fred about your apologies

    Jackie was overwhelmed, and Serenity embraced her heartbroken daughter. “Mr. Stanton, can you make a phone call to Fred? Let me talk to him. Perhaps he will be willing to see us,” Serenity said. “It’s not necessary to do that. Fred might be a child, but he is sensitive. He needs time to calm his emotions since he has suffered accusations this time. I’m afraid that it will cause him psychological problems if you guys force him. I don’t want that to happen to him. He’s my son, so I should protect him, right?” Weston refused. “But Mr. Stanton, we don’t have any malicious intentions. We just want to let him know the truth and apologize to him.” “I'll tell him the truth, and I'll also convey your apologies to him. I guess that should be enough,” Weston said and got up, “I ordered some of Lanford's specialties for you guys. You guys should try it. I’ll make a move first as I still have some work to do. You can talk to the manager of the restaurant if you guys want to stroll around Lanf

    In the end, Jackson couldn’t refuse Jackie’s request. “Alright, but we’ll only stay for one night.” Jackson sighed and picked up his daughter. “We’ll fly back to Solaria tomorrow morning. Daddy and Mommy need to work, got it?” “Yes!” Jackie nodded, wrapped her arms around Jackson's neck, and kissed his cheek. Jackson was pleased by his daughter's affection, and he smiled brightly. Micah narrowed his eyes at Jackson’s double standard. Jackson would look disgusted when Micah used to kiss him. He had even told Micah that boys shouldn’t be so affectionate.However, Jackson liked it when Jackie kissed him. Micah had also seen Jackson kissing Serenity, but Jackson would be upset when Micah kissed her. He couldn’t understand what was wrong with his father. Jackson booked the best hotel in Lanford. They stayed in a two hundred square feet family suite that had several rooms. As the children were playing together, Serenity went to Jackson secretly. “It seems that you don’t want

    During bedtime, Serenity didn't think much of it when Jackie and Micah requested to sleep in one room; after all, they had been sleeping together in Fred’s room ever since he left. Micah also took the initiative to say that he wanted to comfort his sister.So, Serenity read them a few fairy tales and tucked them in bed before leaving the room. She hadn’t expected that they would open their eyes and begin to change once she left. Jackie started to pack her bag while Micah connected his phone to the TV in the room. Various programs started popping up on the large screen. After tapping something on his phone, the monitoring screen in the hotel’s surveillance room went dark. “What’s going on? Did someone hack the hotel's security system?”“Hurry up and fix it!” “Did a hacker blackmail us by demanding money?” “What should I do?! I can't fix it!”“What?! Didn't you say this security system is one of the best in the city?!”“Who the hell did this?!” It was a mess in the ho

    The voice of Weston came through the phone, "What's the matter? Why are you suddenly calling me? Do you want to chat about the children?""Yes, I do want to talk about the children," Jackson replied calmly. "Did my son and daughter go to your house?""Don't tell me you lost your son and daughter?" Weston casually joked.But to his surprise, Jackson replied, "Yeah."*Cough cough*... A series of coughs came from the other end of the phone. The coughing only subsided after a while. "Your kids are missing?""Yes. If they come to you, please inform me immediately," Jackson requested."No problem. Do you want me to help you find them? This is Lanford, not Solaria. I have more connections here than you do," Weston offered, feeling obligated since Jackson had previously helped take care of his son."I would appreciate it," Jackson replied gratefully.And so, Weston and Jackson both leveraged their connections to conduct a search within Lanford. Unbeknownst to them, the two children wer

    "Breached?" Weston quickly ran through a mental list of his business rivals, trying to figure out who might be targeting him. "So, when can we expect everything to go back to normal?" he asked his subordinate."It might take some time, but the backup power supply has already been activated. The mansion should regain power soon," the subordinate replied.True to his words, the lights in the mansion soon came back on. Weston pondered for a moment, then called Jackson. "Jackson, I remember your son is rather skilled with computers, right?" he asked.After all, during his previous investigation of the Valor family, he had come across mentions of Micah's expertise in computers. At that time, he hadn't thought much of it, believing Micah's skills were only good for a kid. But now... he had to reconsider his assessment.Weston then asked, "Tell me, how did your son and daughter manage to leave the hotel? Don't hotels have surveillance cameras? Didn't the security guards notice two childre

    "I don’t care if it's old or if it's a girl's toy, it's still mine! No one has the right to take it away from me!" Fred roared like an angry lion cub. "Where's the doll?" It was the only thing he had brought with him from the Valor Residence. It was a gift from Jackie, and it was a priceless treasure to him!The maid was taken aback, her voice faltering as she replied, "It's... it's in the store room." Normally, items in the store room were useless items that the servants would store and sell to scrap collectors in bulk. It was a source of extra income for the servants.Fred dashed downstairs towards the store room, with the maid trailing closely behind. From the shadows, Jacqueline blinked her eyes.She had indeed seen Fred, but there was something different about him, a change she couldn't quite put into words. The way the maid respectfully addressed him as "Master Frederick" indicated that he was living a comfortable life here. Jacqueline suddenly felt hesitant to ask Fred to g

    Jacqueline swiftly ran away, equipping her night vision goggles as she moved. The power in the mansion went out once more. However, with her night vision goggles, Jacqueline had no problem moving around and effortlessly made her way to the store room.Inside, the store room was engulfed in darkness. Fred was there, clutching the doll tightly in his hands. The maid who followed him there was grumbling, "The power has already gone out twice today. What the heck is going on? But the power will be restored soon, Master Frederick, so don't worry."Through her night vision goggles, Jacqueline stared blankly at the person she had been tirelessly searching for. Fred was right there, standing just a short distance away. If she walked up to him, she could reach out and touch him!"Who's there?" Fred's sudden question pierced the silence.His acute hearing, heightened by the darkness, allowed him to sense her presence."Huh? Is someone else here?" the maid asked, puzzled.Jacqueline felt

    “……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

    Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me!

    "Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

    Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

    "Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

    Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

    But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

    Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

    "Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
