“I want to light the candles, but you said they’re poisonous. I want to eat my birthday cake, but it’s also poisonous!” Kara’s cries intensified the more she spoke. “I don’t want everyone to get poisoned, so I can’t celebrate my birthday now! I’m so sad…”

For some reason, Keith didn’t want the girl in front of him to cry.

Maybe it was because she had a pretty name. Girls with such names should have pretty smiles all the time.

But when she started crying, she no longer looked pretty.

Keith took out a small handkerchief from his suit pocket and said in a cold tone, “Hurry up and wipe your tears. If you want to celebrate your birthday, then do it. Why are you crying? You look so ugly when you do!”

“T-The poison…”

“You’ve already bought everything, haven’t you? It’s better to consume the cake rather than waste it. Just remember not to buy such things in the future.”

Keith’s words were still icy, but now, he was soothing the little girl instead of hurting her feelings.

    “Got it!”The person on the other side replied immediately.After that, Keith asked, “Also, have you tracked down the woman I asked you to find?”“I’ve locked on a few locations, but I’m still trying to filter them out. That Langford guy isn’t an amateur when it comes to this business. If I acted blatantly, he’d definitely raise his guard and sniff me out. I can only take this slow. I still need about seven days to complete this task.”Keith’s gaze grew sharp and calculating at that moment.Two years ago, when he was starting to develop memories as a three-year-old, his birth mother Cindy was ruthlessly imprisoned by his father Samuel.Over the past three years, he never had the chance to meet her.Samuel had always thought that Keith was too young to remember Cindy. In reality, the latter remembered all the events clearly. The reason he plotted this for so long was so he could rescue his mother and whisk her away from the Langfords. In a faraway place, Keith was certain they wo

    His behavior must have been caused by his parents’ long-term abuse, right?Tina didn’t know what kind of heartless b*stards Keith’s parents were. How could they have the heart to lay a finger on such an adorable child?Having recalled the scars on Keith’s arms earlier that afternoon, Tina said, “I remember that you have a lot of cuts on your arms. Do they hurt? Let me tend to them for you.”“There’s no need for that. Those are just minor cuts,” Keith rejected her coldly.He was the only heir of the Langford family, after all. Naturally, no one dared to abuse him. Even though he shared a bad relationship with Samuel, the latter didn’t treat him badly either. Keith could request for whatever he wanted, other than an opportunity to meet his mother.Those cuts were just products of the car accident that he had caused in an attempt to escape from his father. To him, they were nothing.However, Tina grabbed a medical kit and pressed on sternly, “That’s it. Arms out right now. I’ll ba

    Of course, the man in the ward was none other than Samuel Langford.Five years later, he looked colder and more mature than ever.He had sustained minor injuries from the car accident, so he was confined to bed rest for the time being. Many bandages were wrapped around various parts of his body.Most people would look haggard and weak if they were in his position. However, Samuel’s regal aura didn’t diminish at all despite looking like a living mummy.After hearing the bodyguard’s report, he chuckled coldly. To the former, it was filled with various lethal meanings.The bodyguard was so frightened that he almost sank into a kneeling position from his knees going weak. He begged pitifully, “Sir, please give us one more chance. We’ll definitely track down Young Master Langford…”“There’s no need for that,” Samuel replied. “He did this on purpose.”“What?”The bodyguard looked stunned. A moment later, he seemed to have understood something.“Sir, a-are you saying that Young Maste

    “Mommy! Mommy! It’s already so late in the morning! Why aren’t you awake yet?”Before Tina could open her room door, an icy voice drifted from the guest room next door.“Why are you so noisy? It’s early in the morning, so keep it down!”Kara was shocked to hear the voice. She turned her head to look at the guest room before remembering that her family had allowed a pretty little boy to stay with them the day before.Right now, Keith was glaring at Kara angrily. Irritation was written all over his face.After he fell asleep, he had an amazing dream. In that dream, he finally found his mother and took her to a land far, far away.Having not seen Keith for many years, naturally, his mother missed him very much. She showered him with much love. She would send him to school in the morning, and at night, she would tell him bedtime stories in a gentle and loving tone. She even gave him a good night kiss.However, the dream didn’t last long for Keith, seeing as Kara’s loud voice had sha

    Everyone’s interest was instantly piqued when they heard Tiffany’s announcement.“A mysterious VIP?”“Yeah! I’ve asked around for the VIP’s identity. Apparently, that person’s a friend of the founder of Paris Fashion Week, which means it’s definitely someone influential!”“Do you know the VIP’s name?”“Um… I haven’t found out about it yet. That VIP keeps an extremely low profile, you know?”Everyone couldn’t help but roll their eyes at that moment.“Your so-called news isn’t amazing at all!”“Hehe! That’s not necessarily the case. At the very least, no one else knows about the VIP coming to the fashion gala. With the information at hand, we can show off our fashionable sides. What if the VIP thinks highly of our studio because of our fabulous appearances and decides to work with us?”Tiffany balled her fists excitedly and looked at Tina.“Miss Linda, you’re the prettiest and the best designer out of all of us! It’s all on you now!”Tina’s current name was Linda, so it was nat

    The chubby child’s mother screeched, “So you’re these children’s mother, huh? Why are you the only one here? Where’s their father?”“Can’t I come here on my own?” Tina frowned in response.The moment the unpleasant woman heard this answer, she looked smug all of a sudden. Then she said mockingly, “I’ve already heard rumors of b*stard children not having the chance to grow up with their father. It turns out that those b*stards are your children, eh? No wonder they’re so rude!”Tina’s expression changed drastically. She was fine with people mocking and ridiculing her, but she would never accept them humiliating Kara and Keith in her face.However, this wasn’t a good time to argue with them.Tina did her best to suppress her rage before asking the principal, “I’d like to request to see the surveillance footage. I believe it’ll show us the truth.”The principal let out a sigh of relief. Tina was a rational and logical parent who didn’t argue for the sake of arguing, which was a rare

    Tina smiled happily in response. Keith may look cold, aloof, and mean, but he was quite caring on the inside.“Both of you must be frightened by the incident. Since I’ve already taken the rest of the day off, I can relax with you. Is there anywhere you’d like to go?” she asked.Kara piped up happily, “Mommy, I’d like to go to the family restaurant with Keith! He’s now my older brother!”“Older brother?” Tina was surprised.The little girl explained eagerly, “Mommy, Keith and I were born on the same day! He’s slightly taller than me, so I look at him as my older brother!”Keith didn’t hesitate to add, “Not only that, but I’m also smarter than you.”“I’m smart too!”“Compared to me, you’re pretty dumb.”“Oh…”The sight of the children bickering with each other warmed Tina’s heart greatly. At the same time, she felt quite emotional.She didn’t expect to discover that the day before was also Keith’s birthday.However, the little boy didn’t say a word about it. It seemed his biol

    Keith might have spent only two days with Tina and Kara, but he felt warm and safe when he was with them. Those emotions had never appeared in the past five years of him living with the Langfords.Unfortunately, he would be separated from them soon.Tina finally got off work in the evening.When she opened the lounge door, she noticed a small figure all curled up. Keith was already asleep on the bed, a faint smile on his stoic face. Perhaps he was having a good dream.Tina didn’t want to wake him up, so she carried him gently from the bed. But no matter how gentle and careful she was, Keith still woke up in the end.Still stuck between the folds of dreamland and reality, the feeling of being cuddled by a pair of warm arms made him exclaim happily, “Mommy, I finally found you…”The moment Keith lifted his head, the surprised delight quickly dissipated on the spot.Tina felt her heart throb in pain. She didn’t expect that the little boy who looked so cold and mean was so vulnerabl

The man happened to bend down, but she kissed him by accident. It was not her intention.Tina widened her eyes in astonishment.Samuel hadn't expected her to suddenly turn around. It was such a pleasant surprise.He didn't give the woman a chance to escape. He lifted the blanket to cover Kara and keep her out of the improper scene.In the next instant...He wrapped his arms around Tina's slender waist."Heh, did you do that on purpose, eh?" His voice was thick with playfulness."I didn't." Tina avoided making eye contact with the man.'Come on, it was just an instinctive reaction.'Unexpectedly, things went this way. She found it hard to explain.As expected, Samuel was not convinced. "Stop quibbling."This woman was full of lies.He found

    Chapter 825Tina originally felt a little embarrassed. As she listened to Kara's words, Tina's fair face and ears turned red uncontrollably."What are you talking about? Why don't you hurry over here and take a nap?"Tina couldn't help but glare at her daughter.She couldn't understand why her daughter said that. Keith must have taught Kara such things.Tina thought, 'I should talk with Keith.'Although he was a genius hacker, and he knew a lot of things at a young age, he couldn't mislead his sister.Just as Tina was muttering inwardly, Keith, who was talking to Arthur, suddenly sneezed."Wow, boss, I didn't expect you to sneeze like an ordinary person."Arthur said with a voice changer, "Tut, tut. Is someone cursing you?Keith couldn't help but frown."Who dares to curse me?" He narrowed his eyes. Although his face was young, his tone was like that of Samuel. "Is it you?"At these words, Arthur immediately broke a sweat as if a big crime was pinned on him."Boss, I was w

    Chapter 824Samuel was walking so fast that Tina had to jog to keep up. She was afraid of being left behind.Finally, Samuel stopped at the door to Kara's room.After he carried Kara inside, Tina came up.The sight of the woman appearing and panting made him frown."What happened to you?""I," Tina stammered, "you walked too fast. I couldn't keep up."She didn't know why she was so weak now.It was not a long way from the courtyard to the room. The trotting had brought profuse sweat to her forehead. Her face was a bit pale, and she was teetering.Samuel saw it, tensed up, and grabbed her despite his anger at her.Like iron, his robust arm wrapped around the waist of the tottering woman.His brows locked in a frown, he said coldly, "Did you cast the doctor's caution to the wind? You're aware of your condition and know that you need to recuperate, yet you ran so fast. You'd get yourself killed."In a deep voice, he reproached Tina for not caring about herself.To Tina's ears

    Chapter 823"What?" Immediately, the maid got the attention of the other maids around.  The maid glanced at Tina who was chasing after Samuel and gleefully told the others what had happened earlier.  "Mr. Langford warned that woman that she was only a maid.  "He also told the little princess that the woman was not her mummy. Only his wife could be the little princess's mommy!"  The other maids were stunned.  "Really, Mr. Langford really said that?"  "If Mr. Langford treats her as a maid, how can she come to the party this afternoon and wear such a fancy dress..."  "It must be due to the little princess!"  "Mr. Langford gave her some decency for the sake of the kids, but that woman went too far. I heard she claimed at the party that she was Mr. Langford's woman. She went out of the boundary."  "Mr. Langford must have been angry with this woman. He went to take the little princess away himself and warned..."  The maids gossiped and chattered. They used to be careful

    Chapter 822Samuel's tone was icy.Kara pursed her lips and said aggrievedly, "But Mommy is not a maid. Even if Mommy were a maid, she would always be Kara's mommy."Kara's words gave Samuel a headache.Samuel thought, 'Ah! Like mother, like daughter!'Tina always makes me nervous, and so does Kara. Kara is on her mother's side and doesn't take me seriously.'They may be secretly calling me a bastard.'Samuel stopped in his tracks and asked coldly, "You are very unwilling to let your mommy leave, right?""Yes!" Kara nodded her head repeatedly."Then tell me. Do you want me, or do you want your mommy?"At Samuel's words, everyone around was stunned.Tina was a little confused and wondered if she had misheard. How could Samuel possibly say this?Why...Tina was amused, feeling Samuel's annoyance. The originally cold and ruthless man looked a little childish.The drivers also lowered their heads, trying to pretend they had not heard anything.Samuel, however, did not bother

Despite that, she asked, "What... is it?""Moving into my room!" Samuel replied.His authoritative tone brooked no argument.In fact, this couldn't be called a request.If he wanted, this woman should have appeared in his room last night. He wouldn't have let her go to the room next to the children's.Samuel was just upset that this woman had failed to appreciate his kindness. Through this, he hoped that she would cooperate.However...Tina subconsciously blurted out, "No!"…The air in the car was frozen in an instant."Say it again?" Samuel forced the words out of his gritted teeth.His scowl frightened Tina so much that a cold sweat broke out on her back.She was too careless to blurt out her thoughts.She had to explain, "It's... not like that. I mean, the children need care

    Chapter 820"Haha, Daddy is really nice. Daddy was worried about me and Mommy?!" Kara immediately said. Samuel, who didn't want to admit he was terribly worried, snorted. "Yes, I really was. I was worried that your mommy would kidnap you!"When she heard Samuel had specially come over to pick up their daughter, Tina had had some inexplicable feelings. But after hearing her explanation, she felt like he had poured a basin of cold water down her head, making all her feelings disappear. Yeah, of course, Samuel was worried! He didn't trust her at all, but treated their daughter so nicely as if she was a little princess. Of course, he was afraid that she would kidnap his precious daughter!Feeling so uncomfortable, she could not help but say, "I wasn't thinking about kidnapping the child…""Really?" Samuel asked with a very suspicious eye, "Do you think I'll believe what you say?!"Honestly, this little woman just turned around and ran away without any hesitation. But she d

Where are you going?"His voice was pleasant to the ear, though it was tinged with annoyance.Tina's heart skipped a beat suddenly, and a sense of security came over her.‘It's Samuel!’She stopped running. Before she could turn around, Samuel had caught her wrist.It seemed that he was worried that Tina would run away with their daughter.Samuel exerted so much strength that Tina gave a gasp in pain."It hurts!" She subconsciously cried out and struggled. "Release me..."However, upon hearing her words, Samuel got angry.He was going to be infuriated by Tina!He went to the hospital in the morning. During the examination and treatment, he missed Tina and their children a lot.However, w

"We must not let her marry Samuel!"  Madam Langford patted Mireya's hand and said, "Don't worry! Samuel will only marry you! Such a slut cannot marry into our family!"  "What about our previous plans..." Mireya asked.  After thinking for a while, Madam Langford replied, "We'll leave this woman alone for a few days... Then we will..."People saw Mireya and Madam Langford whispering to each other, and they thought that Madam Langford was very fond of Mireya.  "Mireya will definitely marry Mr. Langford. Look how close she is to Madam Langford!"  "Yes! As for that woman..."  Speaking of which, they turned their eyes to Tina.
