Leaning on Nathan, Hilda began to tell him about everything that had happened when he was gone. She told him about Luna falling sick, about how they had relocated Adrian's tomb, about Adrian's return.. She had found her father and her mother, and she had also found her brother. Her family was reunited, which made her feel like the happiest girl in the world. Nathan's expression was indifferent. He was not particularly happy, but he was not solemn either, he just sat there silently and listened. At this moment, Nathan suddenly patted Hilda on the shoulder and said gently, "I need to find your mom to talk about something. You can play with Rex for a while. I'II be back soon." Nathan then set down his glass and walked out of the dinner hall. Hilda sat on the couch, while Rex, who was drunk, rubbed her arms and spoke drunkenly. "Brothers, attack!" The atmosphere of tonight's dinner was extraordinary. After all, Linux had publicly announced that he was a part of the Damien family. Th
Hilda was still staying with Nathan at the Imperial, while Linux openly moved back to the Aebasa Residence. After he returned home, Nathan handled several trivial matters before bringing Hilda and Luna to the Aebasa Residence for dinner. This would be their first meal together ever since they acknowledged their relationship, so it was a rather grand occasion. At the dinner table, Luna addressed Linux sweetly. "Mr. Jordan!" Connie instantly corrected her. "Call him uncle!" Luna pouted with dissatisfaction and spoke as if she were wronged. "Papa said that even though Uncle Linux is my real uncle, I shouldn't let anyone know yet." Upon hearing this, Nathan was shocked and nearly jumped up to cover Luna's mouth. He was doomed! Sure enough, as soon as Luna finished speaking, three pairs of eyes shot coldly toward Nathan. Three pairs of faint blue eyes stared coldly in Nathan's direction. Both Connie and Linux had been immersed in the joy of their family reunion over the past two da
In the living room, the family was just starting to watch TV together. Nathan had yet to return after heading to the bathroom. Taking advantage of Nathan's absence, Adrian rushed over to Hilda and earnestly said, "My dear, you need to make haste! You have to give birth to a son as soon as possible! Only a son can keep your husband by your side!" Hilda was focused on the TV while using her leg to pet the dog at the same time. When she heard those words, her gaze flicked over to Adrian before flicking away again. "A daughter is nice too." Are all fathers like that? Why do his words sound so hateful? Unexpectedly, Adrian became exasperated at her words and sternly said, "Daughters will be married off sooner or later. No matter how you raise them, they are a waste of money! You need to get yourself a son! Even if you can't give birth to one, you need to find another way! You can use a surrogate mother. In the worst case, you can secretly find a mistress. Once she gives birth to a son,
After the kiss, she panted, she was slightly out of breath. Her small mouth opened and closed, breathing in the ambiguous air between them. A light sheen of sweat formed on her skin, and her eyes seemed to be shrouded in mist. Half closing her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly as if tears still clung to them. It had scared her very badly when the two started fighting each other out of nowhere. Stuck between the two of them, she watched as the two most important people in her life tried to rip each other apart. It left her at a loss of what to do. Even now, her heart was still pounding fiercely in her chest. She was unable to calm down. However, she finally felt somewhat less worried after Nathan's gentle kisses. He pressed his forehead against hers and closed his eyes as if he was reminiscing the feeling of the kisses they shared mere moments ago. Their lips were only several centimeters apart, and they could feel the heat of each other's ragged breathing. There seemed to be an
After they finished discussing the hooked nosed woman, Nathan talked about what happened today. "Your current father is very good at acting. His disguise is perfect, and the plastic surgery on his face was done very naturally. However, I've been dealing with people with facelifts for a long time now. I can tell with a glance that his face has been surgically reconstructed before. Everything is fake. As for whether or not he is genuinely your father, it can be verified with a DNA test. But, I believe your mother has already done that in secret." "When I slapped him today, I took a closer look at his face. The surgery he did was rather major, but I couldn't find any traces of it. He probably removed his face entirely and underwent a complete facelift before reattaching his facial skin. Your mother has been acting too. She probably knew from the start that he was a fake." She had originally guessed that her father was a fake. Connie might have failed to notice it immediately since it h
Standing at the forefront was Connie, and she was accompanied by Linux, Hilda, as well as her son in law, Nathan. As the four of them stood by the door, he could feel their gazes coldly and silently staring at him. His heart skipped a beat in fear. Why are Linux and Hilda here? Aren't they at odds with Connie? Why are they here? Even so, he reacted quickly. Without revealing his emotions on his face, he pretended to wipe down the desk in the study with the rag in his hand. He also acted pleasantly surprised as he said, "Oh, my! Hilda and Linux are back! I knew it, we are a family after all. What is there..." Before he could finish his sentence, Connie took out a gun and swiftly aimed the nozzle at his leg. Then, she pressed the trigger without a hint of hesitation. The silenced pistol did not make a loud noise. He only heard a soft 'Bam!' when she pressed the trigger before a bullet went through his leg. Several seconds of silence passed before he let out a shrill cry of pain as h
In the study, the imposter gritted his teeth and tried to get up, even though he was soaked in blood. Connie will never kill me because I know a secret she's dying to find out! Seeing this, Hilda strode forward and gave him a forceful slap. With red finger marks on his face, the imposter glared at Hilda, who then landed another slap on his face. "These two slaps are for my daughter. After this, you shall go to hell!" Hilda growled. Since his identity had been exposed, the imposter, whose face was identical to Adrian, put on a hideous expression and spat out some blood. Leaning against the desk, he raised his chin in a haughty manner. "Does your mom really want to kill me? Haha. I know a secret she's desperate to find out. I want her to kneel before me and beg me to tell her about this!" Now that his blood was still streaming out from the wounds caused by gunshots, his voice had weakened. After Connie shot him a few times with her pistol, she directly turned to leave because ther
Seeing that the man was dead, the housekeeping robot started spraying some liquid on his body. A moment later, the body decomposed into a puddle of blood. Following that, the robot started cleaning up the floor. He left this world, as though he had never existed in this world before. On the other side, Hilda's mind was a mess. Although she had figured out everything she needed to know, she felt that the more she learned, the more she was terrified of what was ahead of her. Will Connie kill Linux and me without hesitation if her love with Adrian was fake? Would she not want anything to do with us if she finds out Adrian never loved her? At the thought of this possibility, she was gripped by fear. After Hilda left the study, she gazed out the window at the lovely weather, but she felt cold all over her body. I'm redundant... Connie won't love me anymore. The more she tried not to think about this, the more she was troubled by this thought. At the moment, her mind was restless. J
