Once school was almost over, the kids in the preschool began to carry their bags as they waited for their parents to pick them up.Ava was maintaining order, so she did not hear her phone vibrating.Right then, the dean walked inside. “Alden, Melody, your father’s here to pick you up.”Alden immediately frowned.Melody speedily turned around as well.“Mr. Cooper.” Ava immediately walked over and said in a lower voice, “Alden and Melody don’t have a father. They are from a single-parent family.”Mr. Cooper was stunned. “That can’t be. Their father’s waiting outside.”Ava stroked her chin.She could vaguely remember Alden’s mother mentioning that they did not have a father.Why did their father suddenly show up?“Mr. Cooper, let me bring the kids out and have a look.”Ava then held them in each hand.Alden frowned but obediently went out because he wanted to see who was claiming to be their father.Conversely, there was a glint in Melody’s eyes.Her glazed eyes were bright

Alden moved the mouse and clicked on all the news.The news generally painted Tyson as a good entrepreneur who loved his wife and child.That night, five years ago, in the Grand Emperor Hotel… This man claimed to be his and Melody’s father.Had Alden made a mistake?The brilliant Alden started to doubt himself.He should have done the paternity test last time.Daylight came later in the late autumn. When Adina woke up, it was already 7.30 pm.The lighting in her room was dim, and some sunlight only shone in when she drew the curtain to the side.She then stood on the balcony and gave Ava a call.“Ms. Jones, the man from yesterday isn’t Alden and Melody’s father. If he visits the preschool again, please don’t let him approach the kids.”Ava naturally gave Adina her word, and she sighed in relief.Next, she would have to look for a lawyer.She would not admit defeat in this battle.Adina took a deep breath and inhaled the cold late autumn air before she began to get ready.

Adina placed her glass down.Since Tyson had hired the best lawyer in Sea City, she would find the most outstanding lawyer in Central City.As long as she had money, nothing was impossible.Adina knew nothing about lawyers. She found the number of a law firm on the Internet, so she called over to inquire.“What? He hired Victor Jenkins as his defense attorney? I’m sorry. No lawyer in our law firm can survive three rounds with Victor. Please look for other experts.”Victor Jenkins was Ethan’s friend.“Isn’t there anyone better than Victor Jenkins?” Adina asked calmly.“Of course, not! He’s the best in the industry. He established the biggest law firm in Sea City in his early twenties. I’m a fan of his. Oh, if there’s someone who can compare to Victor, it would be Brenden Watson. Do you know Brenden Watson? He’s a bigwig of the legal industry who always stars on the law channels. His silver tongue is legendary. I guess Brenden’s the only one who can defeat Victor.”Adina’s eyes i

She drove steadily, and they soon arrived home.Adina pushed open the car door, got out, and went to the back to carry her children out.“Aunt Adina, you’re finally back.”Adina heard a soft voice behind her.When she turned around, she saw a cool kid in a denim outfit run toward her. He rushed into her arms like a meatball.“Harold, why are you here?”Harold placed his arms around Adina’s neck and gloomily said, “I’m so hungry. I’m starving. I want to eat the pasta that you cook.”Adina was distraught. “You didn’t sneak out behind your father again, did you?”“No, I didn’t!” Harold kept shaking his head. “I told Dad. I only came over after he said ‘yes!’”He clearly remembered Aunt Adina telling him that if he dared to sneak out of his house again, she would stop seeing him.Right then, a young bodyguard who seemed to be about twenty years old walked over. “Good evening, Ms. Daugherty. I’m Young Master Harold’s bodyguard. I’m Lucas Foster. The master ordered me to send the y

Harold looked out, and his face instantly turned pale from shock.He immediately rushed into Adina’s arms and nervously said, “Aunt Adina, Dad’s here! He’s here to catch me!”Adina raised her wrist and looked at the time. There were ten more minutes before 8.30 pm. Why was this man here so soon to take Harold?While she thought about it, the villa’s doorbell rang.Adina got up and went to open the door.The temperature at night in late autumn was very cold, and Duke emanated the aura of such a cold night.He walked in only after he stood at the entrance hall for a while.Harold was nervous, but he pretended to look calm as he said, “Dad, I was about to go home, but you came.”“If I didn’t come over, you would have stayed here for another two hours,” Duke said indifferently.Harold flicked his tongue.His dad understood him well. He actually wanted to stay at Aunt Adina’s house for the night.“Mr. Winters, I’m the one who convinced Harold to stay and play a little longer,” Ad
