Having received Ryan's order, the maritime police who were about to leave had to turn back. Martin stared at the OMM cargo ship with sharp eyes and a dark, inscrutable expression, pondering something.

Carter proposed, "Since we've confirmed Charles is on board, I think we should send more people to search. Whether they are hiding, received prior information and ran away, or there is a mole within the maritime police leaking secrets. Instead of waiting for something bad to happen, it's better to go straight in."

Ryan agreed, "I think Carter is right. Since he is hiding with Charles, it means the news has leaked. In that case, let's send more people."

Martin remained silent for a moment, then nodded, "Send people on speedboats to search the surroundings, and send more personnel to search the cargo ship. Don't let any cargo container go unchecked. Even if Roger took the lifeboat on a passenger ship, he won't get far."

Upon receiving the order, Ryan's excited eyes sparkled. "I'm going to

    Ryan suddenly realized that the captain's secretive glances were flashing in his mind. Knowing he had been fooled, he cursed and turned around, heading back to the deck. "Vern, go and verify their crew members. If we can't find anyone on the entire cargo ship, then the person must be hiding among the crew."Vern was shocked by his words. "Yes! We were searching for people, not cargo! It's easier for a person to get exposed when hiding, but if they wear a sailor uniform and blend in with the crew, we wouldn't suspect them."Ryan was so infuriated that he almost dropped his phone.The captain, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, watched as Ryan and the others returned. Thinking about how they couldn't find anything despite the big commotion earlier, he became calmer."Vern, why are you here again? Did you forget something?" His tone couldn't conceal his satisfaction.Angered, Vern caressed his beard and glared, "Bring out the list of your crew members. I need to verify their ident

    After seeing his face clearly, Ryan and Carter exclaimed at the same time, "Randy, how could it be Randy...?"Martin, upon hearing this, stood up abruptly and rushed over. As soon as he confirmed that it was indeed Randy, he gently patted his little cheek and embraced him, saying softly, "Randy, wake up, Randy..."Ryan was puzzled, "Why is it Randy? Martin, Randy was kidnapped, how could you as his father not know?"Carter also had a perplexed expression, "Shouldn't Randy be in the hospital? When was he abducted?"After speaking, all three were momentarily stunned.They all felt that something was not right, but for a moment, they couldn't put their finger on it.Martin took out his phone and called Alan, asking, "When was Randy kidnapped?"Alan was taken aback by the question."Randy has been in the hospital all along! I just came from there."Upon hearing this, both of them fell into silence.Martin looked at the child in his arms and then at his phone. A memory flashed through his

    Both sides froze momentarily as their eyes met. "You bastard..." Charles subconsciously began to shout, but as soon as he uttered a word, he realized something and sat up abruptly, asking, "What are you doing here?" Seeing Charles, whose eyes looked identical to Randy's, Martin's mind went blank, and he instinctively asked, "Why do you look exactly like my son?" "......??" Charles didn't expect his father to ask such a foolish question and almost couldn't help rolling his eyes. "Biologically speaking, only identical twins look exactly alike." Even though he already had the answer in his mind, even though he had been looking at this face all night long. However, when Martin heard Charles say it with his own mouth, he still felt a great shock. His usual calm and rational demeanor was replaced by joy. He embraced Charles and choked with a hoarse voice, "Charles, you really are my son, I am your father. It's so wonderful that you woke up! So wonderful..." Charles's eyes rolled ar

    Martin didn't pay much attention, thinking that Charles had woken up and gotten bored in the room, so he went downstairs. He searched the entire house but couldn't find him anywhere. Finally, he realized something was wrong and grabbed the newly hired butler, asking, "Where is Charles?"The butler, Mr. Stevens, was momentarily confused. "Charles?" he repeated.Martin tried another way, "Randy."Mr. Stevens suddenly understood and hurriedly responded, "Randy got up early. He said he wanted to go out for a walk alone. He didn't want anyone to follow him. He should be in the garden now."Martin vaguely felt that something was not right. He called over the maid who was cleaning the garden and asked, "Did you see Randy?"The maid answered, "I saw Randy leaving! I asked him where he was going, but he didn't say. I suggested that the driver could take him, but he refused."Martin's face turned grim. He quickly ran to the surveillance room and pulled up the

    After rushing back home from the hospital, Patricia finally saw Charles.Seeing the unscathed Charles, she couldn't help but embrace him tightly, her eyes filled with tears, her trembling body overflowing with excitement, "I've finally found you, this is great! I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime. If something happened to you, I really wouldn't know what to do."Charles tightly wrapped his small arms around Patricia's neck and lightly pecked her cheek."Mommy, don't worry, I won't let anything happen to me! I was careless at that time, I didn't expect someone to attack us at the kindergarten gate. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let them succeed."This incident was truly the biggest humiliation of his life.Patricia held his little face in her hands, repeatedly checking to ease her worries.Charles knew what she was concerned about, removed her hands, and smiled, "Mommy, I really didn't get hurt. I'm so clever, how could I let myself get hurt! T

    Patricia hesitated for a moment, "I didn't plan on inviting Martin tonight.""......??"Patricia explained, "Last time Fannie caused trouble at his chip release event. If he comes tonight, Fannie won't show up! I know Fannie really likes Randy, so I simply didn't invite him."Fannie nodded desperately, "Yes! I really miss Randy, I want to see him."Jade sympathized, "You're having a family dinner without Martin?""......??"Jade sighed, "Ah, suddenly I feel sorry for him!""......??" Patricia felt a twinge of guilt in her heart.Nevertheless, Martin was wholeheartedly committed to rescuing Charles this time. Even before realizing Charles was his son, he took the initiative to personally save him.She felt genuinely appreciative of this strong bond of affection.Although the entire family gathered for dinner, it felt incomplete and unkind without Martin.Charles patted Patricia's shoulder and comforted her, "There will be another chance, th

    Observing her expression, Martin smirked, his smile devoid of warmth, and said, "Remember me now?"Seeing his gloomy face and eerie expression, Fannie's heart skipped a beat and nearly jumped out of her throat. She forced herself to remain calm and said, "I don't know you, who are you? Let me tell you, this is a public place. If you dare to kidnap me, I'll shout for help."Martin dismissed her words, saying, "Is that so? Well, go ahead and shout! Let's see who dares to interfere."Fannie suddenly fell silent, puffed up cheeks, and glared at him indignantly, like an angry little frog. Martin was amused by her adorable appearance, causing a softness to seep into his heart."If you want me to let you go, answer a few questions for me."Fannie cautiously watched him, asking, "What questions?"Martin inquired, "Who sent you to disrupt my new product launch? Is it C? Where is C now? How can I find him?"Fannie stubbornly replied, "You're bombarding me with

    Patricia and Charles were both shocked and stood up at the same time.Randy didn't understand the situation, but he immediately greeted Martin happily and hugged his leg, asking excitedly his leg, saying excitedly, "Daddy, why have you come?"Martin gently rubbed his head, walked into the room with wide strides, and closed the door behind him.Patricia and Charles's expressions changed simultaneously, a fleeting glimpse of guilt in their eyes. Martin noticed their changes and chuckled softly, his voice cold and chilling."What is your relationship with her? Why did you hide it from me?"Then, he noticed something and searched between Patricia and Fannie with his eagle-like gaze. The more he looked, the more his expression darkened with shock, filled with shock."Patricia, what is your relationship with her? Why do you look so much alike?"They looked exactly like mother and daughter."We...we..." Patricia felt guilty and didn't know how to answer.

    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
