Fannie's lively eyes blinked twice, and then tears began to stream down her face. She clenched her soft little hands and called out to Martin in a childlike tone, "Daddy..."

The people present exchanged looks of disbelief, their faces lighting up with surprise as if they had stumbled upon some unspeakable secrets.

The flash of cameras went off incessantly, and a reporter deliberately asked, "Who are you? Who sent you here?" It was clear that the little girl was there to cause a stir at the press conference.

Martin's eyes turned cold as he glanced at Alan, who immediately left without a sound.

Fannie's young heart seemed shattered. "Daddy, don't you remember? Four years ago, you slept with an eighteen-year-old girl, and that girl is my mommy. After that night, mommy got pregnant and then she had me." As she spoke, Fannie took out a button. "This button was left behind by you, decorated with a pattern that only you can use."

Martin's expression softened as he looked at Fannie's beautifu

    Meanwhile, the Langley family and Debbie also learned about this incident for the first time.Debbie's face twisted with anger."Another illegitimate daughter! Can you believe it? Another one just popped up after Randy..." What's even more tragic is that this illegitimate daughter was born during Martin's engagement to her.For five years, Martin never touched her. The closest intimacy they had was holding hands. But he was able to father a child with another woman.Manda hurriedly comforted her, "Debbie, don't get angry! There must be a misunderstanding here."Although I don't have much contact with Martin, I still believe that he is not the type to mess around with relationships between men and women." Debbie handed her phone to Manda. "Misunderstanding? How is that possible! Look at this little girl's face, doesn't she resemble him at three or four points?"Manda took a closer look and immediately widened her eyes. "It does, it really does resemble him..."However, the little gir

    Fannie rested her head on Martin's shoulder, expressing her longing for him over the past few years."Daddy, do you know how much I've yearned to be recognized by you these past few years? Even though you were terrible and hurt my mommy, I still have feelings for you since your blood runs through me.""Huh, should I thank you for that?" Martin's mouth twitched.Fannie seemed oblivious to the sarcasm in his words and held her chin high. "Of course! Look how magnanimous I am, not blaming you!"...... Watching her mischievous little appearance, Martin inexplicably didn't dislike her. He even found her cute.Just then, Charles' voice came through the miniature earpiece hidden in Fannie's ear."The plan is complete. We successfully sabotaged that despicable father's press conference. Proceed with the original plan and make your escape."Fannie lightly tapped her ear in response.Martin carried Fannie out of the conference hall.Suddenly, Fannie clutched her stomach in pain and said, "Daddy

Charles knew he had done something wrong and tried to appease her with a smile, sweetly calling out, “Mommy!”Patricia laughed sarcastically, her face darkening as she turned to Charles. "How could you be with Daddy?" she demanded with a frown.Sensing her anger, Charles quickly jumped out of the car and tightly hugged her legs, rubbing his small head against them. “Mommy, I'm sorry. I knew today was Daddy's new product launch, so I wanted to go and cheer for him. I was afraid you wouldn't agree, so I snuck out.” Patricia immediately understood the hidden meaning in his words. Her eyebrows twitched, and she forcefully forced a smile. “Don't run around next time. If you do, I'll break your legs!” Her words bothered Martin, his furrowed brows, clearly making his displeasure clear.“While he may be at fault in this matter, aren't you also at fault? D

    After Debbie finished looking at the photos, her face turned extremely gloomy."Are you sure these are two different people? Not just one person?"Apart from the clothes, they looked exactly the same. Afraid that she wouldn't believe her, Gladys swore to convince her."I'm telling you the truth! I was going to bring you some documents, and as soon as I arrived at the parking lot, I saw Patricia meeting Mr. Langley. I was afraid they would do something to hurt you, so I wanted to keep an eye on them for a while. Unexpectedly, I discovered another Randy. I distinctly saw him in the hospital ward, when I went downstairs, but then he got out of Mr. Langley's car. Most definitely, something fishy is going on."Debbie squinted her eyes, a hint of maliciousness flashed in them."So what you're saying is, Patricia didn't give birth to a single child initially? It was twins?"If that were really the case, wouldn't she have another obstacle?Gladys offered her a suggestion, "Ma’am, should we te

    Patricia pretended to look calm as she stared at the medical book, but her mind was numb, unable to focus on a single word. His words from earlier echoed in her ears, and a blush slowly crept up to her ears.Martin uncomfortably pursed his thin lips, trying his best to divert his attention."Let me... I'll cook for you!" Patricia reacted strongly, slamming the medical book onto the bedside table, then jumped out of bed and left the room in a hurry.Watching her flee, Martin pulled at his loosened tie in frustration—Meanwhile, Patricia escaped to the kitchen, touching her flushed cheeks, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.She had sealed this emotion deep in her heart. But his unintentional words could easily resonate with her heartstrings.Patricia scolded herself while preparing dinner for Martin.Luckily, the fridge was fully stocked, and in no time, she had cookeda steaming bowl of spaghetti with marinara sauce. Finally, she topped the spaghetti with a sprinkle of herbs, pou

    Meanwhile, at Riverside Apartments.Charles had been monitoring the online activities closely.Once he confirmed that all information about Fannie had been deleted, he felt relieved and prepared to take a bath and sleep.Jade grinned playfully, "You're something, kid. Truly a hidden expert. You caused a direct drop of twenty points in Langley Group's stock price. Do you know what twenty points means?"Charles snorted and sneered, "He deserved it. Who told him to bully Mommy? I will not let him get away with it.""He definitely deserves a lesson! Unfortunately, the Thompson Group, his rival company, took great advantage of it! Mr. Thompson from the Thompson Group is even worse than Martin! It's hard to fathom.""The Langley Group?" Charles frowned and immediately checked the Thompson Group's stock price.Sure enough, after Langley Group's stock price plummeted, the Thompson Group's stock price skyrocketed.It was obvious to Charles that this increase was abnormal.

    When Patricia and Randy arrived at Basque Taste, Hunter had been waiting for a while.Today, Hunter wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge. His plain white shirt and black pants made him look slightly younger than when they last met, giving off a hint of his youthful high school days.The person in front of her involuntarily overlapped with the one in her mind.Patricia seemed to have found her childhood happiness again and couldn't help but smile, "Hunter, didn't we agree on half past eleven? It's not that time yet!"Hunter teasingly said with a smile, "I'm not used to making girls wait." Then he shifted his gaze to Randy, "Is this your son?"Patricia quickly pulled Randy forward and introduced him, "This is my son, Randy. Randy, this is Mommy's former neighbor, Hunter. Quickly call him Uncle Hunter.""Randy, hello! I didn't know your Mommy would bring you here today.""So I didn't buy you a gift," Hunter took out a candy from his pocket. "Do you like candies? I'l

    Patricia and Hunter were engrossed in their conversation when they suddenly heard a commotion outside the private room."Mr. Langley, I'm really sorry. It was our employee's mistake. Room 001 has already been booked. Would you mind waiting a moment? I'll talk to the guests inside and see if they're nearly done.""If it's already booked, we can switch to another private room.""All the rooms are full! The guests in Room 001 have been here for a while now, so they should be almost done. Let me go in and check!""Alright!"Before Patricia could respond, the door was opened without warning. The manager, with a bowed waist, walked in with apologetic expression, "I apologize for the mistake made by our front desk. This private room was booked by someone last night, and the front desk didn't know, so they double-booked it for you. Look, have you finished your meal? If you have, can you vacate the room? As an apology, this meal will be complimentary, and I'll also give you 500 dollars in cas

    Martin, lost in thought and gazing into the distance, didn't see Charlotte deliberately fall to the ground when her relatives reached out to her."Ah..."Her cry successfully snapped Martin back to reality.He immediately bent down to help her up. "Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?"Charlotte, tears welling up in her eyes, replied pitifully, "My wrist hurts so much, I think I've fallen on it again! I hope it's not dislocated?"Martin noticed the bandage on her wrist had come undone.The packet of medicine inside was nearly falling out. Anger started to well up inside him; this time, he was thoroughly enraged."Alan, take all of them to the police station, contact the lawyer, charge them with slander, intentional harm, extortion... I want them in jail."Feeling his boss's rage, Alan immediately carried out the order."Why are you suing us? We're the ones who have been wronged.""Just because you're wealthy doesn't put you above the law. Let me tell you, we won't back down without pr

    Hunter looked at her with tenderness, patiently waiting for her to finish speaking.Seeing his gentle expression, Patricia found it difficult to voice the words at the tip of her tongue. Nervously she reached for the lemon water on the table and took a gulp.She drank too hastily, and the sourness made her teeth quiver, causing her face to scrunch up.Hunter was amused by her adorable expression and considerately poured a little packet of sugar into her lemon water."I remember you used to hate sour tastes! What changed? Are you not afraid anymore? Going straight for it?" he asked with a smile.With her cheeks flushed with embarrassment and faced with his caring gesture, found her words of refusal even harder to pronounce.Hunter stirred the water in her cup with a straw for a while, making sure the sugar dissolved, then handed it back to her: "Here, try now. It shouldn't be sour anymore."Patricia nodded and took a sip through the straw. The taste was a bittersweet delight.Although

    Only when the phone’s ringtone broke the silence, the deadlock was finally broken.Martin glanced at the caller ID with a gloomy expression, sighed, turned the phone upside down on his thigh in resignation. He turned to Patricia, unbuckled his seatbelt, and moved closer, taking hold of her shoulders. With a serious and helpless look on his face, he said, "Patricia, I'm sorry, I admit I was too overbearing just now. But I'm being overprotective because I care about you so much, and I don't want to see you getting too close with Hunter."Care? It was the first time Patricia had heard this word from him.The anger in her chest dissipated almost instantly, and her tone softened unconsciously. "Hunter and I grew up together. When Debbie and her daughter bullied me, he was the one who protected and encouraged me time after time. He is very important to me. If a condition for remarrying you is to cut ties with him, then I can give you the answer now."Even without her saying it, Martin gues

    Martin didn't give her a chance to escape, questioning every word, "So, is what Hunter said true? Are you really going to get engaged and marry him?"Patricia felt that the matters between her and Hunter couldn't be explained in just a few words, and moreover, everything was premature without having cleared things up with Hunter first.Seeing her still not responding, Martin grew impatient and urged, "Answer my question."Patricia pulled her hand back and said indifferently, "I won't marry him."That was her only answer. The rest, she wasn't ready to share with Martin yet.This answer caused a surge of joy in Martin's heart, his previously tense facial features gradually softened as he smiled like a child, unable to hide his delight."I knew you wouldn't like him." He said.Patricia rolled her eyes at him, "Now take me back to the restaurant."The smile on Martin's face vanished in an instant, and he refused without hesitation, "No, I won’t..."Before he could finish, his cell phone r

    Upon hearing his question, Patricia burst into laughter, her tone dripping with sarcasm. "So what if it is? What difference does it make if it isn't?"She did not deny it.Martin took her non-denial as an admission, and his handsome face darkened like the bottom of a pot, his eyes filled with brooding shadows."I don't agree.""Haha..." Patricia laughed even harder, her snort of derision loud and unmasked. "And might I ask, who are you to me? By what right do you interfere? What does it matter to you whom I'm with? At best, you're nothing more than my ex-husband. Remember, ex-hus-band."She enunciated the words “ex-husband” deliberately, making sure he grasped their significance.Martin's normally composed brows furrowed, wrapping him in an aura of cold sternness.He was clearly displeased with these words. Then silence hung in the air, heavy and enigmatic.He spoke with grave seriousness, "Let's remarry!"As he spoke, a chilly wind blew past them, its whistling sound drowning out Mar

    Hunter expected Martin to back down and leave in a sorry state.However, to his surprise, Martin’s expression was filled with pain as he stared at their clasped hands for a moment and then strode over to them.Confusion filled Patricia as she instinctively turned her head and locked eyes with Martin, whose gaze burned with fierce anger. Her mind felt like it was exploding as if something detonated."How did you get here?" Patricia asked, barely able to form the words.No sooner had the words left her lips than Martin had reached out, forcibly separating Patricia and Hunter's clasped hands. In Patricia's stunned state, he grabbed her wrist and started to pull her away."Martin, what are you doing?" Patricia's heart began to flutter with slight panic.Martin's face had been a ghastly sight just now, as if he was on the verge of a killing spree. She had no clue where his rage was coming from.Hunter quickly stood up and seized Patricia's other wrist, forcing Martin to stop. Martin turned

    The doctor conducted a thorough examination of Charlotte. Her wrist wasn't fractured but had suffered from a dislocation and soft tissue damage."Mr. Langley, please hold her tightly. I'm about to reset the bones in her wrist, which may cause some discomfort. Keep her steady, and do not let her move.""Bone reset!" Just hearing it, Charlotte's eyes widened with fear, and her body trembled. Despite this, she bravely closed her eyes, extended her hand, and prepared herself for the pain. "Go ahead! I'm not afraid of the pain!"The doctor looked surprised and said, "It's going to be very painful. Are you sure you're not afraid?"His words instantly drained the color from her face, but she vigorously nodded, clenching her teeth, and refusing to voice her fear."I'm not afraid! Back when I was boarding at school, someone pushed me down the stairs, and I broke my leg but didn’t cry. I can handle this pain!" she explained."You were pushed down the stairs?" Martin's discerning eyes narrowed,

    Patricia's heart skipped a beat. She knew she had been framed, again. And this woman's tactics were identical to Debbie's.Not only did she remind her of Debbie, but her methods and cunning were also the same. Indeed, Martin's taste had never changed. He always liked these hypocritical, nauseating women who could put on an act.The incident had happened too quickly; the onlookers only saw a scuffle but hadn't truly seen who had started it. They only saw someone fall and another with a hand outstretched as if pushing, so they naturally assumed Patricia was the aggressor."Professor Watson, what happened? Why did you push her?" one on looker asked."Yes, Professor Watson, is there some conflict between you two? If so, have a proper conversation about it. Getting physical in public won't do your reputation any favors." Another said."Yes! Professor Watson, perhaps you and her should talk in your office? It's not convenient in this corridor."After the incident with Debbie, everyone's vie

    Martin had thought he would be calm when he saw Patricia again, as if nothing had ever happened.But in this moment, with Patricia standing right in front of him, his heart raced with intense emotions that he had suppressed for so long. It was in that moment that he realized the depth of his love for her, far greater than he had ever imagined.He couldn't bear to see her with Hunter, nor could he draw a clear line between them. "You..."Martin's lips parted as he tried to speak to her, to bridge the distance between them.Unfortunately, Patricia had made up her mind to keep her distance, and with her head bowed, she took a step back, yielding the path ahead.Martin clenched his fists tightly, struggling to contain the anger and turmoil within him. Unaware of the tension between Martin and Patricia, Charlotte flashed a sweet smile at Martin and said, “Martin, let’s go! I can’t wait to see Randy!”Patricia smirked derisively, her lips curling up."Well, isn’t that affectionate?"Marti
