Pregnant on the Cusp of Divorce Chapter 440
Gary drove to the place near Holt Jewelry's building. Then, Lucas yelled, "Slow down a little, Mr. Gary!"Gary was already driving as slow as he could, but Lucas still found it too fast. "Slower!"At this time, Thaddeus had a business dinner. Coincidentally, the company's elevator was under maintenance. He left the building and waited for Jordan to drive over with the car. Xander inadvertently glanced outside the car and happened to see Thaddeus standing there. The latter was looking at his watch, looking to be in a rush.In a panic, Xander looked at the two children. Layla was playing with her teddy bear while Lucas was looking intently at his smartwatch. Neither one of them saw Thaddeus outside the window. Xander sighed in relief. He believed this was just a coincidence. There was no way those two four-year-olds would be cunning enough to lead them to Holt Jewelry's building. Besides, none of the Pattons had told them about their father. Therefore, Lucas and Layla didn't kn

"Hey, Julia. What's up?" Jessamine asked."Layla wants to eat some cakes and is throwing a little tantrum," Julia informed her.Jessamine sighed. "Let her have some. Remember not to let her have too much cream. Her digestion isn't so good, so she'll feel uncomfortable if she eats too much of them.""I got it. I'll make sure she won't eat too much." As Julia spoke, she gestured to Layla who was holding onto her, signaling that she got permission from Jessamine.After she hung up the phone, the two children jumped with joy. "Hooray! We can get some cakes now!"Julia put on her backpack with some necessities for the two children. As she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something. "Where are we going to buy the cakes?" she asked.Back in Hajera, Lucas and Layla loved the cakes from a dessert store in the city center. But they were now in Zenville, so Julia wasn't familiar with this city.Lucas sauntered up to Julia like a sophisticated young man. "I know where to go, Ms.

"Hi, Miss. I want to see your CEO," Lucas said.The receptionist at the front desk was shocked after hearing his words. No one could see Thaddeus whenever they wanted. If they wanted to see him, they had to make an appointment three days before.She looked around. This cute little boy had come here all alone without anyone by his side. It made her curious. "Why do you want to see our CEO, little boy? Mr. Holt is really busy, you know."Lucas said bluntly, "I have something important to ask him."He wanted to know why his parents weren't living together. Dolly's parents lived together and often picked her up from school together. He also wanted both of his parents to pick him and Layla up from school.Lucas suspected that Jessamine had brought him and Layla to Hajera because his father didn't want them. If that was the case, he no longer wanted a father like that.The receptionist handed Lucas a lollipop. "Did you wander off from your parents, little boy? Do you remember your fath

The receptionist who had given Lucas the drink looked over after hearing Jordan's voice. Then, she nodded at Lucas, indicating that he could follow Jordan.He followed Jordan into the CEO's elevator and went straight to the CEO's office on the top floor.Only after closing the door did Jordan ask him, "Hey, kid, can you tell me how old you are and your name?"However, Lucas was still wary and didn't answer him. "Where's my father? Didn't you say you'd take me to him?"Jordan said with a smile, "This is the CEO's office. He's in a meeting now."After saying this, he picked up a photo album on the desk and showed it to Lucas. "Here. Is this the person you're looking for?"Lucas felt at ease when he saw that photo. Sure enough, his guess was correct. Thaddeus Holt was his father.The photo was of that strange CEO and Jessamine. If they weren't a couple, they wouldn't be taking pictures with such an intimate pose. Jessamine wasn't a lax person. In Lucas' opinion, no man could ever b

Lucas pursed his lips. "Quilton sounds like an awful last name! No one would ever use that!"Thaddeus asked urgently, "Don't you know Amy Quilton?"Lucas wondered what his father was thinking. Why did he keep asking about someone with Quilton as her last name?He asked, "Is she a nanny? I've never heard of that name."The nervousness in Thaddeus' gaze gradually faded away, and he relaxed. When that vicious bitch Amy ran away, he was afraid that the abortion pill hadn't worked, and that she had given birth to her baby.It didn't look like Lucas was lying, so Thaddeus relaxed. As long as this kid wasn't Amy's, he didn't care whose kid this was."You said I'm… your father?" Thaddeus asked hesitantly.Lucas nodded and said, "I'm not sure, either. It's just a suspicion."After all, he had browsed the Internet for so long, but Thaddeus was the only man with some sort of connection to Jessamine. He was the biggest suspect.Thaddeus sat down next to Lucas. He had a strange feeling upo

Jordan quickly followed Lucas, who had already run to the CEO's elevator. Lucas stood on his tiptoes, trying to push the elevator button.Jordan stretched out his hand and pushed the button for him. "Are you not looking for your father anymore, kid?"There were millions of scammers recently. After making sure that this boy wasn't Thaddeus' son, Jordan knew that this boy had a motive for coming here. Why would he leave so soon?Lucas firmly denied that Thaddeus was his father. No one would want a scumbag father like him!"Like hell I am. I'm not looking for my dad," he said. Then, his smartwatch rang, and he tapped the answer button. "Ms. Julia, I got lost just now. Wait for me at the dessert shop. I'll be there soon." Jordan couldn't help but be cautious upon hearing Lucas' words. He thought this was too similar to those organized scams that circulated on the Internet, especially when he heard how Lucas talked to Julia.Jordan now believed that Julia was the leader of this farce

When Lucas and Layla saw Julia busy with work, they sneaked into their room hand-in-hand and closed the door behind them.Layla asked, "Lucas, have you seen Daddy?"Lucas shook his head ."Forget about him. He's a massive scumbag. We don't want a daddy like him. Mommy will find us an even better daddy."Layla was confused. "Can we just get daddies as we like?"Lucas said proudly, "Of course we can!"Layla smiled. "Then, I want a tall, handsome daddy who can make strawberry cakes, tell stories, and take us to amusement parks!"Lucas held his chin and quipped, "Most importantly, he has to love Mommy."Unfamiliar with the concept of a father, the two children conspired to find an ideal father for themselves.…In the afternoon, Xander returned to the hotel after finishing his work. When he entered the door, he asked Julia about Lucas and Layla's behavior in the morning and if they had done anything bad.Since Julia had promised Lucas to hide what happened in the morning from Xand

Lucas' and Layla's eyes lit up when they heard Xander's words. They left behind their things and hugged Xander's legs, shouting, "I love you, Uncle Xander! You're the best!"…Meanwhile, since the afternoon, someone discovered a problem with the company's check-in system at Holt Jewelry, and no one could unlock the access control. No matter who tried to swipe their time cards, they could only see a picture of a cartoon pig making a face on the screen. The HR department also couldn't log into the system because their account and passwords became invalid.Holt Jewelry was now in chaos. The employees couldn't enter or leave the company. It was almost time to get off work, so how were they supposed to go home?News of this issue soon reached Jordan. He knocked on the door of the CEO's office with several documents in his hands. "Mr. Holt, someone has hacked into our company's access system. We can't unlock the access control."Thaddeus looked at Jordan sharply. "Who's behind this?"
