Chapter 1611 My Mommy is Back

The trip to Lesia this time was different for Ned.In the past, Lesia was a place where he had a chance to turn things around. Later, it was just one of the many places he had visited, and there were no special feelings attached to it or anything.Now, he felt like the country was connected directly to his life. Whenever someone mentioned Lesia, he could feel his heart ache.Ned hated having such a weakness. Once he had a weakness, it was easy for others to use it against him. Yet, now it seemed that this was unavoidable.Just now when Ned went upstairs, he heard Oliver's relatives talking about Fiona and Jeremy's wedding. Everyone knew Fiona had introduced Jeremy to Cassandra back then. They speculated that perhaps Cassandra's requirements had been too high and Jeremy hadn't caught her eyes, so they broke up. That was why Fiona and Jeremy could marry.The Myer family strongly opposed this marriage. It was Fiona's second marriage, and she already had a child, after all. However, J

Chapter 1612 His Gaze Burned Into Her

Oliver looked at the cute and handsome boy, then asked Ned, "Mr. Lawrence, who's this? Your illegitimate son? He looks a lot like you."Ned's hand stilled. If Hector were his illegitimate son, that would be great. In Oliver's eyes, anyone who was handsome looked like Ned."This is Cassandra's son," Ned said with a frown.Oliver was floored. "Cassandra? Cassandra has a child? With who?"Oliver looked up, and his eyes landed on the woman sitting in front of them. If that wasn't Cassandra, he would eat his shoe!Oliver poked Cassandra's shoulder and called out, "Cassandra?"Just then, the bride and groom entered. Cassandra didn't pay much attention to where Hector had gone and was standing up and applauding loudly. Besides, she wanted to see what state Jeremy was in when he married her sister.Cassandra had only returned the day before yesterday and was still jet-lagged because she had been working non-stop all this time. After she returned from Ashweir, she flew back to Lesia with

Chapter 1613 How Have You Been?

Ned, on the other hand, stood next to Oliver, sipping his brandy and acting as if he wasn't listening to what Oliver was saying."Cassandra, my dear cousin, have I loved you in vain for all these years? You didn't even tell me you went abroad to study. Plus, you didn't even contact me the entire time you were there! What's the meaning of this?" Oliver said.Cassandra held Hector's hand and said, "Oliver, I've been very busy abroad. I'm a professor under Professor Peter. Don't you know how busy I get? Besides, I thought Fiona told you everything about me."Ned laughed mockingly into his wine. What a straight-faced liar! Cassandra hadn't wanted to contact Oliver because she was afraid he would tell Ned about it, so she pushed the blame onto Fiona and boldly lied to Oliver's face.Wasn’t she ashamed of herself?However, Ned had a tacit understanding with Cassandra, so he said nothing."Also, I didn't know I became an uncle! Whose kid is this?" Oliver asked as he petted Hector's head

Chapter 1614 He Looks Like You and Him

Ned watched Cassandra answer the phone from afar; he suddenly felt like this woman had a wall of steel in place, and he couldn't pry it open.Cassandra took several phone calls. Many academic institutions in Lesia knew she was back, and were calling to ask her to give a lecture. Also, Lesia University of Technology wanted to hire her as an honorary professor. In short, she was very busy on this trip back.After she was done with her calls, she didn't return to Ned's side but went to Jeremy instead.Ned kept his hands in his pockets as he kept his eyes on her. She had grown thinner over the past two years, and he knew that her years in Emmeria hadn’t been as easy and calm as she had made it out to be."Oh, Cassandra. You're back," Jeremy said with a smile.Presumably, because he was with the love of his life now, Jeremy had also become calmer and more at peace. He wasn't as awkward as Cassandra had thought he would be.Cassandra smiled with her head down. It was as if all the vent

Chapter 1615 Who’s Going to Watch Hector?

Cassandra estimated that there was about fifty thousand dollars in the envelope, which might not even be considered pocket change to Ned. However, Cassandra had taught Hector to be frugal since he was young, so she knelt and said, "Hector, I'll help you save this money, okay? I'll give it to you in the future, okay? When you need money, just tell Mommy, okay?"Cassandra knew that Hector was a young child and had no need for money. She was only trying to convey the message to Hector that as his mother, she wouldn't refuse to give him money, but she would also not give him money indiscriminately."Cassandra, you have assets worth tens of billions of dollars. Ignoring your current life, or even the next few lives, you couldn't spend it finished. Do you need to go that far?""You don't understand," Cassandra said. “If you don't teach them at an early age, it'll be too late when they grow up."Ned extinguished his cigarette. Why did it feel like Cassandra was insinuating something in

Chapter 1616 It’s Exhausting for Mommy

That night, Cassandra, Hector, and Rosemary stayed together at the Addaway family’s enormous villa. There wasn’t even a housekeeper around, and it felt very empty.Cassandra recalled how Rosemary had checked on her in the middle of the night to see whether she had kicked her blanket away. At that time, Cassandra had lamented how her mother had suddenly seemed to age. Still, at least Rosemary had still been of sound mind. It had been two years since then, but she now seemed to be a little scatterbrained.Cassandra’s heart ached.She had never been close to her mother because of the huge age gap, but blood was thicker than water.At this moment, Cassandra watched Rosemary tuck Hector into bed and pull the covers around him as if afraid he would catch a cold. She said, “Mom, why don’t you leave Lesia with me? Maybe I can get your visa done and ask Fiona to take you to Emmeria. What do you think?”Rosemary took a few seconds to process what Cassandra had said. Then, she shook her head

Chapter 1617 Found a Housekeeper

Hector sat up straight, then clung to Ned’s arm and said, “Uncle Ned, I want Mommy! I want Mommy…”Ned pulled him into his arms and wiped his tears. “She’ll be back before you know it. Why don’t we do something else for now?”“Like what?” Hector sniffled and rested his head on Ned’s shoulder.“Oliver, don’t you have a mini basketball hoop somewhere? Bring it here so Hector can play with it,” Ned commanded with a frown.Oliver had no choice but to stop eating again. “Whoever would dare disobey your command, President Lawrence?”And so, he went to the backyard and brought in a mini basketball hoop that was about three feet tall. It came with a mini basketball, too. He put them in the living room, which was spacious enough that the hoop didn’t take up much space.Hector beamed when he saw the basketball hoop. He grabbed the basketball and giggled.Oliver and Ned were only in Lesia for the wedding, so they had no other plans. They sat on the couch and watched Hector shoot hoops happ

Chapter 1618 Daddy

Ned watched the livestream out of the corner of his eyes. The first thought that popped into his mind was that she had lost weight—too much.She still wore the same glasses. At this moment, she was drawing a diagram of the human anatomy.She didn't need to refer to anything, but the diagram was identical to the images she had displayed.Ned couldn't help remembering how she had looked two years ago, when she was bent over her desk and working on her dissertation…Two years had passed in the blink of an eye; he hadn't seen her for two years. Back then, he would make fun of her for being a fan of romance novels and playfully boast about his perfect eyesight.He hadn't been by her side when she was at her lowest, allowing Wyatt to slip through the cracks.Still, hadn't she left because she didn't have feelings for him? She had always been cold to him. He hadn't so much as gotten a smile from her.Back then, Ned had only found her love for romance novels amusing. He hadn't considere

Chapter 1619 You Have People in Lesia?

"Is she reliable?" Cassandra asked suspiciously. "With all three of us gone, Mom will be alone with her. She could rob us of everything if she wanted to."Catherine was also concerned about whether Martha could be trusted."She's someone I know—definitely reliable." Ned sat down and crossed his legs at the knee."You have people in Lesia?" Cassandra looked surprised."Is there anything wrong with that? I know people all over the world, even Emmeria." He looked her in the eye.He seemed to gaze right into her soul; she quickly averted her eyes.Though it had only been a glance, Cassandra sensed something different in how he looked at her. In the past, his gaze was always predatory and amused. Now, however, there seemed to be some understanding…and heartache.Yes, heartache!Her eyes had to be playing tricks on her. How could Ned's heart possibly ache for her?Women meant nothing to him. How could he possibly feel for someone?"Is she reliable?" she repeated."Yes, very.""I'

Chapter 1620 Sister-In-Law

"How could you hear about that when you're out of the country all the time? It'd just be taking your attention away from work. Anyway, nobody wants to air their dirty laundry. You have no idea how many times Adeline has run home to stay with your mother." Catherine sighed. "Look at how hard your mother worked to get to where she is! How did her daughters end up like this?"Ned's eyes were trained on his phone. It was as if he wasn't listening to them at all.Oliver walked out of the kitchen. "I had the housekeeper make all your favorite dishes," he said.It was Catherine's turn to head to the kitchen. She wanted to take this opportunity to cook something for Cassandra as well.Cassandra gulped. It seemed to have been years since she had her aunt's cooking.She also hadn't had the chance to eat much during Fiona's wedding yesterday.Oliver came over to join them. When he saw Cassandra and Ned sitting on the couch together, he sized them up, then said, "Did anything happen between
