The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 499 Give Up on Her
On the way back, Hattie was still in shock. The moment she thought of Javier's warning, she was horrified. It was because she knew the outcome would be devastating once the matter was exposed. When the time came, the wedding she had put in so much effort for would be in vain. However, the Snyders would be destroyed with her. Therefore, she really couldn't afford to lose this battle.Had Javier found evidence of what she did? She knew that even if Javier suspected her, he wouldn't take action unless he had evidence. Or could it be Shawn who told Javier the truth? At the thought of that, the fear in her heart intensified. That day, she drugged Shawn with the purpose of finding evidence and also to get him on her side. However, she couldn't find the evidence, which made her extremely anxious. This was like a time bomb as she couldn't be sure that Shawn would one day give up on her and tell Javier the truth. She remembered how happy she was after getting the news of her marriage
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 500 Given Up Completely
Claire was not only a woman who got pregnant before marriage, but her background was so different from the Marquez family as well. How could she be worthy of a perfect man like Javier? He was an intelligent man with good qualities, and she was only an ordinary woman, nothing else. At the end of the article was the location of the engagement banquet. Claire was in a trance as she looked at it. Did Javier really plan to let the whole world know about this, and let them celebrate this joyous occasion with him? She suppressed the weird feeling in her heart and actually memorized the location. An idea gradually formed in her mind, and she was getting nervous and excited. At the Diroux Residences, Javier returned earlier than usual. Usually, at this time, he would still be working overtime at the company or drinking with Shawn. After Claire left, he rarely came back early. Patty was shocked but also glad, so she quickly ordered dinner to be made. Lately, Javier had lost a lot of we
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 501 I Won't Implicate You
How could she meet Javier in such a state? Helpless, Claire decided to go shower and dress up. So, she quickly stood up. However, she hadn't been eating or resting well these days, and her blood sugar levels had been low. Instantly, she felt dizzy and fell onto the couch. The sudden sound attracted the maid. Seeing that Claire had fallen on the couch, she was horrified and worried for the child in her womb. So, she quickly called the private doctor over. After all, Mrs. Marquez had ordered them to protect the child in Claire's womb. Claire felt dizzy and only felt slightly better after lying down. Soon, the private doctor came and sighed after looking at how weak she was. "As a mother, why are you making yourself suffer?"There wasn't much emotion on Claire's face. However, she wanted to regain her energy quickly and asked, "How is my condition? I haven't had a good appetite lately."Claire knew that her weak body had little to do with eating. She had tried, and other than eat
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 502 A Luxury to Look at Him
However, he felt that it was impossible and thought, "Could it be that Mr. Marquez hasn't proposed to Ms. Snyder yet?"The crowd was also guessing when they would get married or whether they were already married. Facing everyone's flattery, Javier was silent and didn't speak. It was as if nothing here could arouse his attention, and he was as indifferent as usual.Hattie felt awkward, but it was only for a second. She returned to her normal state. She laughed and revived the mood. "Make sure you come to my wedding, okay?"Then, she toasted everyone while showing affection toward Javier. However, after so many people came, the only person who hadn't shown up was Shawn. However, no one knew that Claire was secretly watching everything from behind and was left heartbroken by Javier and Hattie's intimate actions. She had long been here, secretly hiding just to take a glance at Javier. When they arrived, she was still looking. From afar, she saw Hattie in a gorgeous white evening g
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 503 Can't Be Greedy
After a long time, Javier's low voice only sounded. However, he did not sound very happy, and he only said, "I'm fine."Only then did Hattie feel secure and breathe in a sigh of relief. Then she remembered something and asked, "Javier, why is there suddenly a power outage?"She had her own people arrange the banquet, so such a thing shouldn't happen. Could it really be that Claire was here? Hattie was once again nervous when Javier didn't reply. However, she comforted herself that there shouldn't be such a matter and calmed down. It seemed that Claire wasn't there. After all, it wasn't easy for her to escape from Sofia. Then, he suddenly said, "I didn't cause this power outage." A power outage at such an important event was either deliberately caused by someone or it really was an accident. "What do we do now, Javier?" Hattie asked in concern. After all, this was their engagement banquet, and she didn't want it to be ruined. Therefore, she sounded pitiful when she said that.
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 504 I Will Never Let Go
After listening to Javier's words, she couldn't stand it anymore. She tried to get away from his embrace but failed. “Javier Marquez, let go of me.” Claire gritted her teeth. However, Javier did not let go and even hugged her tighter. "I won't let go."Even Javier was shocked by what he said. Speaking with such a humble attitude wasn't like him at all. Still, he couldn't let go, as he was scared that he would never get the chance to hug her again if he let her go this time. Claire was mad but couldn't let anyone discover them, so she patiently said, "Javier, what do you want?"She secretly came here but didn't expect Javier to notice her so quickly. Suddenly, she wondered if Javier had planned this on purpose to draw her out. What did Javier want? Even he was clueless. All he knew was he had been suffering greatly during this period. Now, feeling Claire in his arms, he felt better. He didn't know what to do next. In the dark, Claire couldn't see Javier's expression, but see
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 505 You Can't Deceive Me
Because they were both standing in the middle and it was dark, many people started to move, and the crowd started to get chaotic.Suddenly Claire gasped in pain, and Javier quickly let her go. "What's the matter?" Javier asked in concern. Since it was dark, he couldn't see what was wrong with her, making him even more anxious. It turned out that someone had stepped on Claire's feet when the crowd moved. She rubbed her feet with pain and ignored Javier's concern. She wanted to take this as an opportunity to escape. She was afraid she wouldn't have the chance if she didn't leave now. This time she couldn't give in because Sofia wouldn't forgive her. Unexpectedly, Javier was prepared and had been pulling the hem of her clothes. So, when Claire wanted to leave, he could feel her movements. "Claire Weiss, where are you going?" Javier asked in a trembling voice. He couldn't let Claire leave him again. He really couldn't go through that pain again. Even if he lost his dignity, he
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 506 Can’t Return to the Past
But some still asked jokingly, “What surprises are you up to, Miss Snyder? Are you trying to scare us?” The people who attended the banquet tonight were all big shots. Some became nervous when someone suggested such a matter, while others were watching the scene unfold with curiosity. Everyone was smart enough to know that the power outage wasn’t part of Hattie’s plans. After all, who would want their engagement party to go wrong? However, Hattie put it that way so Javier wouldn’t be embarrassed. The person who joked about it would face dire consequences now. However, Hattie did not give a response immediately, she seemed to search the crowd before saying calmly, “My fiancé prepared this for me. I’m not so sure about the details.” The man did not say another word. Everyone thought it was part of a prank, so they just sat quietly and waited for the power to come back on. Javier’s face darkened when he heard Hattie’s words. He knew that the power would return soon, and he was worri

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
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 912 I Will Repay You
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
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 910 Hard to Avoid
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 Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 906 Talented
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
