However, it was only for a second, and Javier ignored the weird thought. Other than the woman he loved, he wouldn't take the initiative to care about other people's matters. Javier left and didn't notice Sofia's relieved expression and Pedro's gloomy face.After leaving the old house, Javier planned to get back to the Diroux Residences. Suddenly, he remembered Ollie's room key was left there. He only focused on Ollie and accidentally left the key on the sofa.Javier laughed at himself and ordered the driver to turn back. This time, he didn't announce his arrival and walked in alone. The old house was eerily quiet at this time. Javier frowned and suppressed the bad premonition in his heart. He walked to the room and found the key was still on the couch. After getting the key, he was about to leave but her a muttering sound. Javier paused and frowned. It seemed to be Sofia speaking, and it came from the room next to him. Javier had no intention of eavesdropping and was about to
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 554 How Could He Bear It
Sofia fell onto the couch weakly and thought of Javier's harsh words. Gradually, tears rolled down her face. "Pedro, what do we do? Why doesn't he understand our intentions?" Sofia sobbed as she hugged Pedro's arm. At this moment, Pedro's expression was hideous, and he was irritated too. He said coldly, "What can I do? It's all because of your useless subordinates. If something really happened to Claire, what would happen to the reputation of the Marquez family? Go and settle this matter now."Although she felt aggrieved, there was nothing she could say. In the end, she sighed. "Javier is so fascinated by her. I finally found a doppelganger to cover things up, but who knew this would happen? I thought after Hattie and Javier's wedding, everything would be negotiable."She couldn't help complaining while crying. However, when she looked at Pedro's angry expression, she quickly shut up. These years Pedro had not dealt with any family or business matters, but he still had his maje

He had been staring into empty space, and his expression was dark. No one could guess what he meant. “It’s fine. Don’t waste any more time and continue searching,” Javier said without giving them a chance to say anything. Henry was about to continue persuading him but quickly stopped. He dared not disobey Javier. After taking another glance at him, he left with the team. The team walked into the dark and then disappeared from Javier’s sight.The night was cold, and the breeze made one drowsy. The whole night, Javier, Henry, and the team had been searching for Claire. However, they did not find her.Not to mention Claire, but there wasn’t any trace of the accident. It was as if everything had never happened. When the sun rose, Javier’s haggard expression was more obvious. Henry was worried looking at him, and finally said, “Mr. Marquez, it’s been a whole night. Please return to the car and rest. You’ll collapse if you continue.”“Go away! Don’t waste time and continue searching
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 556 Everything Was Fake
Sofia saw Hattie and looked guilty as she had just discovered why Javier had fainted. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine. I feel better now you're here. I can finally relax. Javier is fine. You don't have to worry."Hattie looked relieved and comforted Sofia, "Aunty Sofia, I'm glad Javier is fine. Please don't worry too. Everything will be fine."Hearing that, Sofia nodded. She felt happy being comforted by Hattie. Instantly, all her tensed nerves relaxed. However, she secretly hated her son for not knowing how to cherish such a good woman.Then, she decided no matter what happened after Javier woke up, she would ensure their wedding would succeed. On the side, Pedro's expression was gloomy, and he remained silent. However, it could be seen that he was worried. After all, Javier was his son. Even though he was angry, he still felt distressed at such times.Everyone waited in worry for a long time before the light of the operating theater switched off. The doctor walked out lo
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 557 Who Allowed You to Be Here
Hattie saw the disappointment in his eyes. She understood that the person Javier expected was not her but another woman. However, she didn't care since she had fallen in love with such an outstanding man. At least she was now before him, and that was enough.Thinking of that, Hattie smiled gently and asked in concern, "Javier, are you awake? Do you know how long you've been unconscious? I've been taking care of you since then. I'm glad you're finally awake!"The gentleness in her beautiful eyes was alluring, and no man would take their eyes off her. However, Javier didn't care. He glanced at her and looked away coldly. "Why are you here? Who allowed you inside?"Hattie was hurt, and she felt awkward. Still, she explained, "Javier, I know you fainted at the mountain, and I'm worried about you. So, I rushed over as quickly as possible. It was your parents who asked me to take care of you."Then, she looked aggrieved and continued, "Javier, I will be your wife soon. It should be my
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 558 Married Soon
At the Marquez family's old house, Javier's grandfather was watering the plants in the backyard. Although he was old, he was still very energetic. When he was free, he would water the plants, play with his pets and enjoy nature.Some time ago, he had been traveling as he had always wished to explore the world. Therefore, he never intervened in any of the Marquez family matters, and life had been great.He was back in the country this time after knowing Javier was about to marry the daughter of the Snyder family. He didn't have much to wish for at this age. So, he felt happy that he could witness his grandson's marriage and how he developed his legacy. So, when his subordinate told him a lady by the surname Snyder was here to visit him, he was shocked. He blinked and realized it should be his future granddaughter-in-law.Suddenly, he was interested and ordered, "Ask her to wait for me in the living room. I'll be there soon."Joe wasn't in a hurry and finished watering the plants
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 559 I Like Her Very Much
Even so, Joe’s expression wasn’t great. Then, he said, “It’s Hattie who gifted it to me. She came to visit. What a kind child.”Pedro was taken aback and remembered that Hattie was the lady Javier was going to marry soon. Her intentions were obvious, but at least it made Joe happy. So, he didn’t mind.Then, Pedro added, “As expected from Hattie. Javier’s a lucky guy to marry her.”However, Joe did not comment. Sofia passed by and overheard their conversation. She also praised Hattie, saying, “Hattie is really a good kid. She’s sweet and sensible, unlike those arrogant socialites. I like her very much. She's going to be a great daughter-in-law.”Suddenly, Pedro was reminded that Javier had refused to marry Hattie and insisted on bringing Claire home. Instantly his expression was dark. Joe never cared much about the younger generation’s matters, but he would sometimes hear about things. When he saw their expressions, he knew what was going on.Then, he said, “I heard Javier fancie
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 560 Where Is She
The next morning, Sofia woke up early because she couldn't sleep. Pedro looked at her haggard face and the bags under her eyes. It was obvious that she didn't sleep well, so he was worried about her.They had been married for years and had long lost their passionate love for each other. However, they treated each other respectfully and would always care for each other.Sofia was touched, but her expression was uglier when she thought about what had happened last night. Then, she helplessly sighed, "It's all because of that woman. After she escaped and fell off the cliff, her whereabouts were unknown. We don't have any news on her. I'm worried that something happened. What should we do then?"Pedro understood her concern. He didn't feel anything when he thought of Claire and felt it would be better if she did not return. It would save them unnecessary trouble when Javier and Hattie's wedding day arrived. Then, Pedro said, "It's better if she doesn't return. There's no need to keep

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
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 909 The People She Hated the Most
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
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 908 I Don't Care
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
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 907 Scared
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
