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

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
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 705 Full of Hatred
After a long pause, Morrow finally broke the silence, saying, "Ms. Weiss, please come to my office later." Claire was confused but she did not say anything and nodded gently instead. She could not avoid him despite whatever disagreement they had previously as he was her superior now. She quickly returned to her office. The designs and decorations in her office were the same as she left before, nothing was moved from its place. Claire watched, and her heart was filled with gratitude. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, before she could say anything, the door was pushed open, and two people barged in. "Claire, I heard you’re back!" Raina quickly rushed to her side while Thomas strode in slowly behind her with a smile. Their eyes were filled with shock and excitement. Claire felt a tug at her heart, and she quickly pulled Raina into her arms, sighing, "Yes, Raina, Thomas, I’m back. I promise not to leave again this time. From now on we’ll go through any difficulties side by sid
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 706 Lack of Compassion
However, it was never in his nature to retaliate against such matters. So, he had no choice but to swallow his frustrations and put more effort into his work. But everything was turning for the better now that Claire was back. He believed they would be better off with her around. In an instant, there was a huge boost in their confidence. They discussed what to do next, and they finally had a solution to their problems. Thomas had to leave early because he had to shoot a movie later. He only came back because he heard of Claire’s return. Claire was worried that this would affect the progress of the show, so she quickly had him go back to the production group. It had been some time since she was at the company, so she had to get used to many things to work efficiently. As she was looking through the documents and Thomas’s schedule, her office phone began to ring. She answered it quickly. "Hello, who is this?" "Ms. Weiss, it’s me." Morrow’s deep voice came from the other end of the
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 707 It Doesn’t Matter
He glanced at Morrow and asked, "Mr. Marquez, what do you mean by that? Could it be...?"There was no need for him to finish his sentence. What he was trying to say was evident. He wished for Claire to have a downfall that she could never recover from so that he could ease the hatred in his heart. Morrow suddenly seemed to recall something amusing and smirked, saying, "David, you've been with me for so long, don't you know me yet?"At first, David was a bit puzzled, but upon hearing Morrow's words, he suddenly came to a realization.He immediately asked, "Is it the celebration tonight?"Morrow looked at him exasperatedly. Although he did not give an explanation, the implication was obvious. David immediately understood and glanced outside the door cautiously to make sure no one was eavesdropping before whispering, "Mr. Marquez, what exactly will happen tonight? Can you give me a hint?"Morrow's smile deepened, and he teased, "You'll know when you go tonight. Without you, the par
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 708 I’m Worried
After some time, Javier finally answered with a barely audible sigh. "You would be upset if I told you not to go. I have no choice but to say yes, but I’m still worried about you."Claire knew that his heart was starting to soften, so she quickly took the chance and said, "Don’t worry. I promise I won't drink. I'll come back early, okay? I'll just head over for a moment.""Alright, go ahead, take care." Javier hung up shortly after. Claire looked at her phone helplessly. She knew that Javier was angry, but there was nothing she could do. She would have to get him to come around later in the evening. With these thoughts in mind, Claire felt slightly better.Today, she was wearing a short, pink dress from a luxurious brand, and the cut of the dress was slightly loose, which conveniently covered up her pregnant belly. The outfit was suitable for the occasion as well, so she did not have to go through the trouble of changing again. Claire planned to take a cab, so she waited outsi
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 709 Won’t Admit Defeat
He wanted to retort sarcastically but quickly remembered Claire’s position, and immediately changed his tone, putting on a polite smile. "Ms. Weiss, of course, I must show up. How could I not attend this party to celebrate your return?" As he spoke, he beckoned at a waiter and took a glass of red wine from the tray, raising it and exclaiming, "To Ms. Weiss! Welcome back."Claire looked at the raised glass and felt somewhat embarrassed. She was currently pregnant, and since her pregnancy wasn't showing yet, many people were unaware of it. However, that didn't mean she could drink alcohol.Claire smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I don't drink alcohol anymore. I'll have tea instead."Then, she picked up a cup of tea and took a sip, accepting David’s toast for her. However, David’s anger boiled when he saw that Claire barely acknowledged him, and his face darkened. He tried to keep his anger at bay, refraining from erupting into a string of curses as he downed the glass a

However, they were unaware that Raina was secretly listening to them from one of the cubicles, and her face turned as white as a sheet. She was clearly scared to death by what she heard. She had come to cool off in the restroom for a moment, but she never expected to witness this exchange between David and Morrow. She wasn’t clueless as to what they were up to as she had heard rumors about their deeds. But it was her first time seeing it firsthand. The first thing that came to her mind was Claire when she saw David handing the drug to Morrow. Although they didn't mention any names, Raina's instincts told her that Claire must be their target. This thought struck fear into Raina’s heart, and her face turned even paler. She made up her mind to tell Claire about this matter before something happened. Raina did not waste another second and exited the restroom to look for Claire. She found her sitting on the side of the party, seemingly in a deep discussion with Morrow. This further confir

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 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

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
