The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 273 Ruthless
Claire was overcome with fear in an instant, and she realized that if she stayed any longer, she would succumb to her emotions and reveal her vulnerability. This was her remaining dignity, and she could not lose that too.Claire ran into David on her way back to her office. Observing her crestfallen expression, he was surprised. Then, he had an idea and approached her with a smug look. “Claire, why did you hurry out of the manager’s office? Don’t tell me you got fired?” After overhearing Morrow talking about it yesterday, he couldn’t resist testing Claire upon seeing her furious expression. As expected, her features contorted further upon hearing his words. She shot him a scathing glare before pivoting in the opposite direction.Her mind was a mess, and she didn’t want to deal with that creep. Unfortunately, David wasn’t willing to give up and walked up to block Claire’s way. “Claire, what’s wrong with you? Now that you’ve gotten fired, you suddenly have an attitude? Are you goi

Without this opportunity, Hattie would never have dared to execute such a plan before Javier. It would have been a suicide mission for her. But with Javier preoccupied, now was the perfect moment to act.Thinking of that, Hattie was still a little worried. She called for her butler, Robin, to enter. “Are you sure that she has resigned?” Hattie asked. There must be no mistakes during this time.Robin nodded. “I’m absolutely sure. Our men made sure that Claire carried out her belongings from the company. They are still following her. We’re unsure where she’s currently heading.”Hattie nodded with satisfaction. “Good. Keep a close eye on her. Make sure she brings that kid and leaves the Marquez. Let me know once the time comes.” After that, Robin nodded respectfully and didn’t comment. Although she had used ruthless means to cost Claire her job and Ollie to be expelled, she felt it wasn’t enough. Hattie had to witness Claire leave the Marquez with her own eyes to feel relieved. Thi

Claire remained in the car for an extended period, only leaving when it was almost time to get off work. She drove home and went about her business as usual, playing with Ollie before retreating to her room. What was different this time was that she locked the door and began packing her belongings.At that instant, Claire came to the realization that she had amassed an excessive amount of belongings. When she and Ollie had first moved in, they had only possessed a few outfits. The situation felt surreal to Claire, and she had mixed emotions but quickly composed herself. She picked out a few of her frequently worn clothes, gathered Ollie’s possessions, and packed them away before setting everything aside.Claire stood there staring at the two bags, lost in thought when she was finished. The soft knock at the door made her jump. Quickly gathering herself, she hid the bags and put on a composed front, asking softly, “Who is it? What’s the matter?”Outside the door, Patty replied, “Mada

Ollie blinked his vacant eyes and looked at Claire in confusion. It took him a while to come back to his senses before he asked, “Mommy, are you being serious? What happened?”In his heart, he knew without a doubt that Javier was his biological father, but why couldn’t Claire see it? When he noticed the seriousness on her face, he refrained from speaking his mind.Claire retracted her upset expression and looked at Ollie. “Ollie, things are very complicated right now, and I can’t explain everything in just a few sentences. But you have to come with Mommy. I promise I’ll give you a complete home in the future, okay?”Although she didn’t know who Ollie’s biological father was, she could find one for him… Ollie was about to speak, but when he saw Claire’s face, he decided to remain silent. Finally, he made a decision and nodded, saying, “Alright, I’ll leave with you, Mommy. No matter where you go, I’ll follow you.”Touched, Claire almost cried. She hugged Ollie tightly and choked, “

Fearing Patty and the others might catch on, Claire parked the car half a mile from the Diroux Residences to avoid suspicion. She realized starting the engine too close could easily give her away.At last, they located the parking spot. Claire helped Ollie get into the car, and after checking the area, she joined him. She quickly turned the key and drove away from the villa, only slowing down once they were a safe distance away.Claire stole a final glance in the rearview mirror as she drove away before blinking wearily. Even though she and Ollie had been happy back there, it was time to say goodbye.Ollie remained transfixed, gazing at the Diroux Residences from the backseat until they disappeared from view. Only then did he withdraw his gaze. Claire sensed his reluctance to leave and wished she could comfort him, but all she could do was let out a sigh. Their best course of action now was to put more distance between themselves and that place.“Mommy, where are we going?” Ollie l

Patty jumped at the silence, placing her ear on the door to listen. When she heard it was completely silent, she let out a long breath. “Madam, I’m sorry for disturbing you, but I’m coming in to take a look,” she said quickly after much hesitation.After all, it was pretty late, and she was worried too much sleep would affect Claire and Ollie’s health. In the end, she gently opened the door and entered. Patty felt perplexed, and a sense of dread washed over her. In haste, she exited the room and bolted downstairs to summon the staff. “Quickly search for Madam and Ollie in the vicinity. Alert me as soon as you locate them,” she commanded.Patty was anxious because Claire would have informed her if she intended to take him out. Furthermore, she awoke very early this morning. So, what was Claire doing out so early? The feeling of unease in her heart grew as she struggled with doubts.Seeing that the servants had rushed to find them, Patty took out her phone and called Claire. However

After some time, Henry rushed back to the Marquez house. He looked at Javier with a complicated gaze. Javier was already in a lousy mood and coldly said, “No nonsense. Spit it out.”Henry shuddered and reported, “Mr. Marquez, we’ve discovered that Ollie had been expelled the day before yesterday, and Mrs. Marquez was fired by the company yesterday. No one in the company knows where she is now.” Javier was taken aback but quickly returned to his usual cold demeanor, his eyes filled with rage.“Continue searching—her friends, anywhere she might go, and also the Weiss family. Send people to keep an eye on them,” Javier ordered, but his mind was a mess. Claire had left too suddenly and without any reason. Just two nights ago, they were… Then, thinking that Claire had dared to leave without saying goodbye, his expression became uglier. Henry saw the change in his face and broke out in a cold sweat. “Yes, Mr. Marquez. I’ll send people over to investigate. We will soon receive news.”

David was not annoyed. David reached out to touch Thomas, but he dodged it with a scowl of disgust. Thomas had other things on his mind. He didn’t want to continue this with David, so he coldly walked away and went to Claire’s office.However, David did not chase him. David said as he watched him leave, “Thomas Bjorn, I’ll await your return. I’ll always be welcoming you with open arms.” As he came to a halt, Thomas snorted contemptuously. He would not stoop to such depths. To him, Claire was his sole agent. Upon reaching her office, he found the door was wide open. The strange feeling in his heart grew more intense, leading him to investigate right away.As expected, Claire wasn’t in there. The laptop on her desk was gone, leaving only a chair and nothing else. Thomas felt his brow twitch, and he placed the cake on her desk. Just as he was about to look around, an employee entered. When he saw Thomas, he greeted, “Thomas, you came so early? Are you here to look for Claire?” Thoma

Hattie looked extremely sincere in her pleading. However, when Sofia did not answer or even look at her, she began to lose confidence. Sofia's face was impassive. "Hattie, I've known you since you were a baby, but I can't help you with this. Please leave." She did not want to discuss the other stuff with her yet.However, Hattie was obstinate. She looked at her with tears in her eyes. "Aunt Sofia, please, please help me. I know it's not much trouble for you, but it can save our entire family. You've always been so kind to me. I promise that the Snyder family will repay you for your kindness!"Hearing this, Sofia felt uncomfortable. She raised her head and gazed at her coldly. "In this case, Hattie, I'll tell you why I won't help you," she said impatiently. "Do you really not know what you've done? I won't say it, but I know exactly what you've done to Ollie. You deserve everything that's happening to you now."Hattie widened her eyes, partly in shock and partly in disbelief when she h

Javier paused outside the door and waited until Claire left before giving his subordinates a look. They understood perfectly and grabbed Chantelle at once.As Javier had ordered, they were to send this woman abroad as far away as possible and leave her to fend for herself.Outside the hotel, Claire looked up at the sky blankly. She felt like a huge burden had been taken off her shoulders; for the first time in a long time, she felt relieved of all the hurt that she had suffered five years ago. Turning back, she told Javier, "Thank you, Javier, for allowing me to face my fears. I feel so relieved now."Javier's expression fell when he heard her thank him. He tapped her on the nose fondly in exasperation. "What are you talking about? Of course, I won't let those who hurt you get off so easily. They have to pay for what they have done."Claire was touched to see him so protective of her. A surge of warmness spread in her chest as she gazed at him fondly. "I'm lucky to have you, Javier."T
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 911 Disappointed
That was all Armand could think of.In just a few minutes, Chantelle admitted to everything she had done to Claire over the past few years.From drugging Claire out of jealousy and getting a stranger to assault her to getting Liam to banish her abroad, she admitted to everything. Claire knew some of them, but not all; only now did she know the extent of her crimes.When she was finished, everyone in the room sported conflicting expressions. Liam looked especially hurt and remorseful. It turned out that his younger daughter had always been evil, and he had wrongfully blamed Claire for all these years.Armand, on the other hand, didn't know how to feel about all this. He glanced at Claire and Javier. He felt that he really didn't deserve Claire, after all he had done. He had thought Chantelle to be kind and naive and had trusted her blindly to the point that he almost married her.Thank goodness the wedding didn't happen. Even so, he had lost Claire thanks to this. It made him regret eve

If Chantelle told Claire the truth about what happened that night, then there would be nothing stopping her from having a happily-ever-after with Javier.Back then, driven by jealousy, she had drugged Claire and put her in Javier's bed without their consent. She had planned all of this out herself meticulously. She had gotten Armand to catch Claire in the act so that he would call off the engagement and be with her instead. Liam banished Claire abroad to fend for herself. However, if she had known that the random stranger she had arranged to assault Claire was Javier, she never would've done it.Even so, it was a perfect plan worthy of a blockbuster film. Claire and Javier never found out the truth, nor did they know that Ollie was actually Javier's son.It took them two years of skirting around each other only to find out that they were meant to be in the first place. Now that the truth was out, Claire would not settle for prison as a punishment for the cause of all her suffering. Sh

After a lot of persuasion, Claire and Sofia finally managed to get Ollie to agree to stay in the hospital for another three days.Of course, three days weren't enough. Sofia and Pedro tried everything they could to convince Ollie to stay in the hospital for as long as possible.However, Ollie was smart enough to see through their ruse. He felt guilty when he saw them trying to cajole him into staying, so one day, after another attempt, he spoke up hesitantly, "Grandma, Grandpa, I'm glad that you're trying to keep me happy, and I'm touched that you're concerned about me, but I've been in the hospital for too long and it's making me sad. I promise that I'll listen to the doctor even when I'm at home, okay?" Under his bright, clear gaze, Sofia's protests died in her throat, leaving only exasperation and wordless sorrow.Ollie was too mature for his age. How could they not love him?Therefore, Ollie got his wish and was discharged three days later. In order to take care of Ollie, Sofia an

Hearing this, Javier narrowed his eyes. He felt like he was on the verge of grasping something, but the feeling passed too quickly for him to register it. Softening his tone, he said, "There's no need to be scared, Ollie. We're all right here with you. We'll protect you no matter what happens. Can you tell me what you remembered?"Ollie might have regained his memories from before he'd been drugged.Buoyed by the encouragement, Ollie thought hard for a moment and said with a frown, "I … I remember a lady beating me. She locked me up and didn't let me eat anything while saying bad things about me and Mommy all the time. I wanted to fight back, but I was too weak. After I tried to run, she caught me and beat me up some more and forced me to eat food off the floor." Toward the end of this, Ollie burst into tears.Claire's heart hurt for him. She wanted to hug him, but Javier got there first."Tell me, Ollie, do you know her name?" Javier's voice was thick with tears as well. "Do you remem

With that, Henry threw a glance at the rest of the employees and hurried them out. He also dragged Raina and Thomas out with him, leaving only Claire and Javier's parents to keep him company.Since it was only a small procedure for Javier, he did not get a lot of anesthesia. He tried to wriggle his body a little. Realizing what he was doing, Claire quickly helped him sit up.Javier did not look like he had just come out of surgery. Thanks to his strong physique, he looked fine.Seeing this, Sofia finally eased up a little on her worries. "How are you feeling, Javier?"Javier shook his head. "I'm fine, Mom. I just need some rest. How about Ollie? Did they say when he'll wake up?" He already knew that the surgery was a success, so he wanted to know when he would be able to see Ollie."Randy said that Ollie will be out for some time, but he's fine," Claire replied. Javier nodded. He, too, finally eased up on the tight knot of worry that was weighing his chest.Once he was sure that Javie

The surgery took three hours.As time went by, Claire got more and more anxious. However, there was nothing she could do but wait.In the end, Sofia was the first to crack. She went up to Claire and said anxiously, "Claire, are you sure that Dr. Xenos is good? It's been three hours, why aren't they out yet? I have a bad feeling about this."Claire wasn't exactly relaxed either, but she didn't show it. She gathered her thoughts and comforted Sofia. "Everything will be fine, Mrs. Marquez. Randy is a well-known surgeon, I'm sure he knows what he's doing. Don't worry." She wanted to reach out to comfort her, but in the end, she just sat there with an awkward expression. This was probably how their relationship would be in the foreseeable future—awkward and distant.Pedro watched their interaction with an air of knowingness. "Stop crying, Sofia," he said. "They're fine, you don't have to cry about them. Claire's still pregnant, don't upset her."Sofia was about to get angry about his admoni
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 905 Wouldn't Be Able to Bear It
At that, Javier narrowed his eyes dangerously.The Weiss family wasn't in a stable condition right now, so it wouldn't be hard for him to take revenge on Claire's behalf. Now that he knew the truth of what had happened, he had to find a way to punish the perpetrators.The news that Ollie was Javier's biological son quickly spread, especially after Sofia held a party in celebration. In fact, it made headlines the day before Ollie's scheduled surgery.Javier wasn't surprised about it. He had been looking for an opportunity to announce it to the public so that there wouldn't be unsightly rumors that would affect Claire. Claire, on the other hand, felt a little uncomfortable about the announcement. After all, she had always been a private person; she didn't want anyone to disturb her peaceful life.After a while, though, she got used to it.The most important contributor to this was that it benefited Ollie. From now on, he wasn't a fatherless child anymore. He could tell anyone who would l
