Hattie was slightly taken aback but quickly reacted before turning to look at him. "Darling, what do you mean by that?"Yvan smiled at her deeply and gently tapped her on the nose. "Silly girl, are you still pretending not to understand? Of course, you know what it means."Hattie's eyes lit up, but she looked at him in disbelief. "What do you mean by that? Could it be..."She didn't need to finish her sentence, but the knowing expression in Yvan's eyes had already revealed everything. Seeing this, Hattie couldn't help but feel delighted and quickly chuckled, saying, "Yvan, what's going on? What have you done?"Yvan began to tease her, placing his hands on her waist unconsciously. "Well, you'll find out later. This is just the beginning. I believe Javier won't be able to stand for long."Seeing that Yvan wasn't revealing anything, Hattie didn't know what else to say. She could only snuggle in Yvan's embrace and think about how to get back at Javier.After all, although Yvan had al
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 698 Change of Tides
Javier clearly knew what Claire said made sense, especially since he had been up against Charles for many years. At this point, he had a good understanding of Charles. If Charles were a cunning opportunist who deceived others, he would never be worthy of being Javier's opponent, let alone successfully manage MQS Productions. However, whenever he thought of Claire spending long hours with that man, it felt like there was a heavy burden on his chest, making it hard for him to breathe.Claire observed Javier's expression carefully and noticed that it had somewhat softened. She quickly took the opportunity and soothed him, saying, "Alright, Javier, there really is nothing between me and Charles. Please stop overthinking. My heart has always belonged to you, and there has never been anyone else."Regardless of the situation, Javier felt quite pleased with Claire's coyness. He felt his burden had lightened, but he remained cold as he said, "In the future, stay away from that man. I don't l
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 699 Care for Her
Javier immediately understood Claire’s concerns, knowing that she was nervous, he quickly reached out and patted her hand gently, saying, "I understand. No matter what happens, I'll be there with you, alright? So, don't burden yourself with anything. My parents are your parents, not just some strangers. We're all family from now on."Claire nodded, but his words left a bitter taste in her mouth. It would be great if they could really be a happy family and get along well. However, the memories of how they forced her to leave Javier started to slowly resurface, and her heart tightened at the thoughts. But now that she had already married Javier, she had made up her mind to stay with him and not back down in the face of setbacks and difficulties. With this in mind, Claire took a deep breath and encouraged herself, believing that as time passed, his parents would be able to accept her. Before long, the car stopped at the entrance of the Diroux Residences. Claire slowly got out of the ca
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 700 Too Harsh
Pedro was infuriated by his attitude, he clenched his chest, almost choking on his rage. He could only mutter lowly, "You unfilial child!"Javier, however, paid no attention to this and went upstairs to find Claire. By this time, she had already freshened up and changed into a relatively appropriate and elegant outfit. Javier was very charmed by her and embraced her from behind. He sighed when he felt Claire tremble in his arms. "Claire, don't think too much about it. Trust me, as long as we are together and happy, they will eventually accept us."Claire's expression faltered and she asked, "Really, Javier? Will they really accept me?"Javier nodded firmly as if reassuring himself as well as her. "Yes, believe me. Since I have chosen to be with you, I won't let you suffer any harm."Claire’s heart felt more at ease upon hearing his assurance. She wrapped Javier in her arms, feeling his steady heartbeat and the warmth of his body. Time passed quickly, and soon it was dinnertime.

That private tutor stayed for a few days, but because Ollie was eager to go to school, he followed the tutor to school. This was better because he could gain knowledge from school and keep up with his classmates at the same time. Claire got up and headed over to pick up Ollie from school. Everything was as usual, and it seemed like nothing has changed. Javier went to work while she picked up Ollie from school. The days were simple yet warm. The only difference was that she now had a baby that belonged to her and Javier. Also, she was now unemployed. At the thought of work, she had already made up her mind to discuss it with Javier later in the evening. At this time, chaos had already engulfed the Weiss family.Since Chantelle was discharged from the hospital, she had been emotionally unstable, and she was always depressed. After Armand visited her in the hospital and promised to help her get justice, he never contacted her again, as if he had disappeared. Chantelle couldn't help b
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 702 Are You Jealous?
Claire noticed that Javier was in a fairly good mood, so she made up her mind and said coyly, "Javier, I’m quite bored at home too. Why don’t I help you out at the company?" Javier furrowed his brows and scowled, "You’re still pregnant; are you sure your body can take the pressure?" Besides, he was not comfortable with the idea of her working as he was worried about accidents happening. Claire had expected him to say this, so she pouted and complained, "But I’m really bored at home. I feel uneasy all over." Javier knew Claire wasn’t someone that could stay idle, he was worried something would happen if he allowed her to sit back at home for too long. Javier’s heart softened at this thought, but he still looked at her reluctantly. "I can allow you to go to work, but you have to promise me to take care of yourself, and I will personally pick you up and off work every day." He wanted nothing more than for Claire to stay by his side and never leave his sight forever. But he kn
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 703 I’ll Make You Pay
Claire finally regained her senses when he felt Javier’s uncontrollable desire and reached out to push away his broad chest. She was out of breath from the kiss, and gasped, "We shouldn’t be doing this. I’m pregnant, Javier." He seemed to realize that he had lost control earlier, so he quickly stopped himself and panted as he bit Claire's ear. "I’ll make you pay after the child is born."Claire blushed at his words and glared at him angrily. "The baby is barely a few months old, and you’re making such comments. The baby would be upset if they knew about this in the future." Javier replied, "They'll definitely make you suffer when they're born. Just thinking about it makes me dislike them." Claire knew that Javier was just ranting, and she quickly covered his mouth. "Don’t say that. The baby will hear it. I won’t let them call you Daddy in the future!" Upon hearing this, Javier suddenly became interested in how the baby was doing at the moment, and he traced his hand on her
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 704 Get Lost
It was quite late when they finished breakfast, and Patty had sent Ollie to school.As Claire got into Javier’s car, she couldn’t help but feel nervous. It has been quite a while since she last went to Stardust Entertainment, so she was unclear about the situation there right now. Along the way, Claire seemed to be deep in thought, and she stared out the window absentmindedly. Javier knew that she was nervous because she hadn't returned to the company for a long time, so it was normal to be nervous. He reached out and pulled her into his arms to comfort her. "Stardust Entertainment is under the Marquez Group, so no matter what happens, I will always protect you, do you understand?"Upon hearing this, Claire was instantly filled with a sense of security. She nodded and said, "Thank you."She silently thanked him for always being by her side, never leaving or giving up on her. He had always been a strong pillar of support that gave her the courage to face the uncertainties of th

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 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
