Hattie's body was on display for all to see.For a brief second, Shawn had to admit that he was still attracted to Hattie. However, he squashed the feeling quickly and replaced it with a cold smile.Hattie was naturally embarrassed to be standing in front of him completely naked. She did not dare move a muscle. In fact, she wasn't sure why he was asking her to do this."Hold up your head," Shawn said hoarsely.Hattie's face was flushed. She did as she was told and looked up at Shawn.Before she realized what was happening, a bright flash of light blinded her. Instinctively, Hattie raised a hand to shield her eyes and saw that Shawn was taking a photo of her. She was shocked. "What are you doing?" she asked.It was too late. Shawn waved the phone at her tauntingly. "I'm done," he laughed. Hattie was frozen on the spot, unable to do more than just stare at Shawn in anger and disbelief."You're insane, Shawn. Give me your phone!" she yelled before hurling herself at Shawn, trying to snatc
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 726 I Think You Have Potential
Hattie looked at Yven expectantly. Just as she expected, the gloomy look on his face melted away, replaced by a smile. "Is that true, Hattie? That's great!" He swept her into a hug.Hattie was pleased by the praise. In contrast to the fright earlier, this was positively delightful.They stayed in each other's arms silently for a while. Yven had decided to overlook her unfaithfulness. After all, he had already got what he wanted from her. Once he had the money, he could get the project from Javier.He had to avenge his father. Bit by bit, he would get back what he was owed from Javier!The next morning, Claire was called into Morrow's office as soon as she arrived at work.Claire did not know why, but she did not argue. In his office, Morrow was flipping through a document distractedly. When he saw Claire come in, he was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly recovered and offered her a seat. "Come and sit here, Ms. Weiss. There's something I need to discuss with you."Claire frowne
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 727 Not That Lucky
Morrow had mentioned before that he preferred mature women. At that moment, however, he lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, "People change—so do their preferences." When David looked unconvinced, he got straight to the point. "She saw what happened that night.""What?" Shocked, David stood up and exclaimed in disbelief, "She saw what we did?" He was on the verge of panicking. After all, if Claire found out about their plans, he would be the one who would get in the most trouble. Morrow had the Marquez family for protection; he wasn't that lucky.Morrow frowned at him with disdain. "Grow a pair, David, and stop panicking. Even if our plans were leaked, I'll be here to back you up. What are you so scared of? Moreover, nothing's happened yet. I'm trying to fix this."David did not dare say anything against him. Worriedly, he said, "So you're going to fix this by fixing up Raina … "Morrow shook his head. "That's if worse comes to worst. I've already dealt with her earlier. All I nee
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 728 Shouldn't Rely on Him
Thankfully, Thomas was still filming his new movie, so Claire could take a break for a few days.She decided to do just that; after finishing her daily tasks, she took the rest of the day off and left after lunch.While on her way home after picking up Ollie from the kindergarten, Claire received a call from Patty. Surprised, she picked up the call, not expecting anything unusual. "What's up, Patty? I just picked up Ollie from school. We're on our way home right now."As she was pregnant, Javier assigned her a driver so that she wouldn't need to drive.Patty did not finish her sentence; she couldn't, as she was just working for the Marquez family. It wouldn't be right to speak her mind despite her worries for Claire.Claire knew exactly what she was worried about. She paused for a while before sighing deeply. "Thanks for worrying about me, Patty," she said. "However, that's still my home. I'll have to go home sooner or later. I can't keep relying on Javier."There wasn't much Patty cou
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 729 You Know the Consequences
Sofia raised an eyebrow and said, "Speaking about work, I think you should resign and stay at home. Considering your history, you're already undeserving of the title of Javier's wife, so you shouldn't be flaunting about in public. I want you to resign."Claire was taken aback by the demand. If it were anything else, she was willing to compromise with Sofia, but this was going too far. She couldn't agree to that. Even if she felt guilty that Javier had had to bear all these rumors and speculations on his own all this time, it still wasn't something she was willing to compromise.With that thought, Claire looked at Sofia seriously and said, "I know you're worried about Javier, Mrs. Marquez, but he's my husband. I'm working so that we can share the burden together. I won't resign. I hope you can understand my position."Sofia knew that Claire was a capable woman, but she was brought up with traditional values and wouldn't budge from them. Women, to her, should stay at home and care for th

Claire walked away quickly."You … " Sofia could not refute her words at all. All she could do was watch her leave angrily.Over at the sitting room, Patty had prepared a spread for dinner. Most of the dishes were Sofia's favorite. All this was done so that Sofia wouldn't be too angry.After all her preparations, Patty approached Sofia timidly and said, "Madam, dinner's ready."Sofia was too angry to have an appetite. However, she just thought of something and went over to the dining room all the same. Despite the spread of her favorite food, Sofia had no appetite at all. She sat alone at the table. "Is Javier not coming home for dinner?" she asked softly.Patty answered, "I called Mr. Marquez earlier, Madam. He said he needs to work late tonight, so you don't have to wait for him."Sofia felt sorry for Javier. He had worked so hard to take the Marquez Group to where it was today, only for Claire to come along and wreck things so he had to work harder now. The thought made Sofia hate
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 731 She Got Lost
Claire sobered up and carried Ollie to the sofa, saying guiltily, "I'm sorry, Ollie, I should've known better. I'll go get something for you to eat, okay?" As she turned and headed toward the door, Ollie grabbed her hand and said in a small voice, "Don't go, Mommy. I'm not really hungry. We can wait until Dad is home."This just made Claire feel worse. "It's okay, Ollie," she said softly. "I'm just going out to buy you some food. I'll be back really soon."Her mind was made up, and Ollie knew that he wouldn't be able to change it. All he could do was worry about her.Once Ollie was settled, Claire threw on a jacket and went downstairs, forgetting to take her phone with her. Worried that someone might see her going out of the front door, she decided to slip out through the back entrance. Diroux Residences was situated in a thriving location, so Claire only had to follow a straight road out of the area to find bustling shops. However, since she rarely ventured out, she got lost almost
The Return: Dad Quest Initiated Chapter 732 Upset
Claire couldn't help but wonder if things would be easier for her and Javier if she came from a better family. The thought made her cry worse.Even so, she stayed right beside the road so that Javier wouldn't miss her if he drove by.Back at Diroux Residences, Ollie sat waiting anxiously for Claire to come home. When she was still missing in action after a long time, he began to get worried.Stealthily, he snuck downstairs so that he could use the phone to call Claire. However, halfway down the stairs, he saw Sofia at the bottom. Ollie paused.Ever since Sofia had kicked Claire out of the house last time, he had felt terrified of her. He remembered every threat that Sofia had thrown at Claire, and they traumatized him. However, for the sake of his mother, Ollie swallowed his fear and continued down the stairs. His movements drew Sofia's gaze to him.When Sofia saw that Ollie was heading down, her expression softened slightly. She was decent enough to know not to vent her anger on a me

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
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
