"Fine. You can eat with your hands this time. But promise me there'll be no more next time," said Corinne with a sigh when she saw his hands were sticky with barbecue sauce.'Bryan' quickly nodded and said, "I promise, Mommy! Thank you, Mommy! Thank you, Aunt Francine!"Corinne thought there was something off about 'Bryan', but she could not point out what she found so odd about him.He still looked the same as ever, but his behavior was very puzzling. Then again, kids could be unpredictable, so it still made some sort of sense.'Maybe I'm overthinking it. The white polo tee could be just a mistake on his kindergarten teacher's part… Just like Francine said,' she thought.Corinne took a few bites of her food absent-mindedly when her phone suddenly vibrated.She picked up her phone and saw it was a message from Lucas.[Corinne, I'm outside the mansion. Please come out if you're free. It's urgent.]Corinne stuck by her decision to not go back to being a Rivera, though she maintai

Corinne had never heard about that painting before."How did you discover that painting?" she asked."I saw it at a friend's house. Moreover, the paint on the canvas isn't completely dry yet."Corinne's eyes became focused. "And you think it was painted by Nellie Nymphaea?"Lucas nodded sombrely. "Yes. Nellie Nymphaea's style and brush strokes can be imitated, but there's one habit that our mom has that no one else knows about."Corinne did not have much memory about her mother so she looked curiously at Lucas. "What habit?""Mom always adheres to a very standard way of holding her brush when painting, but when it comes to signing her works, she'll put her hand down, causing her to pick up some paint from the canvas. And this will show up as a 'C' shape next to her signature."Every time, she would try to fix her mistake and remind herself not to do it again, but she never does remember. So the same thing would happen again and again. The painting I bought this time has a little

Lucas' eyes darkened with caution when he heard the name 'Brian Addison'.Corinne was observant enough to catch the changes in his eyes. "What's the matter? You don't like Brian Addison?"Lucas shook his head. "Brian Addison was the name Adam used when he was still living in this city."'What? They're the same person?' thought Corinne with shock. "Does that mean that piece of land belongs to Adam?"Lucas nodded. "What time is the auction tomorrow? I'll go with you.""It's at ten in the morning.""I'll come pick you up tomorrow then. Meeting's finished. Now ask the servants to carry the kids' gifts from the trunk inside.""Sure. By the way, thanks," replied Corinne absent-mindedly.A few moments later, a group of servants came out of the mansion to bring the gifts for the kids inside.Corinne watched Lucas' car leave with a thoughtful expression. She then looked down at the painting in her hand.'There's finally a lead on Mom. Maybe there'll be a lead on Jeremy too…'…The k

The next morning, Lucas picked up Corinne at the mansion. The two of them went to Agatha Auction House together.Christine begged to go with Corinne. Not wanting to break her heart, Corinne decided to bring her along with 'Bryan' and Joey.The two adults and three kids walked into the venue, and a manager quickly came out to welcome them."Welcome, Mister Lucas. Your private booth is ready. Allow me to bring you there now," said the manager respectfully.Lucas, who was carrying Christine in his arms, nodded and followed the manager. Corinne, who was holding the two boys in each hand, did the same.Their private booth was located on the second floor, which allowed them to have a clear view of the fully-packed floor below.Lucas glanced at the crowd below before going into their private booth. "This auction sure has attracted a lot of people. I'm guessing there'll be some highly-sought items up for auction later?"The manager smiled and nodded. "You're right, Mister Lucas. Most of

'Bryan' turned and pouted. "I need to poo too, and I'm worried you'll miss your auction, Mommy. Maybe Joey can come with me? I know where the restroom is!"Joey naturally was willing to accompany his little brother to the restroom. He happily jumped down from his chair and said, "Mommy, I'll take Bryan to the restroom! I promise I'll keep an eye on him. We'll be back in no time."As sensible as Joey was, Corinne was still reluctant to let two little boys go alone. Thus, she said to Edmund, who was standing by, "Edmund, it's not convenient for me to go into the men's restroom, so please look after them for me.""Of course, Miss Corinne," said Edmund with a respectful nod.Edmund took Joey and 'Bryan' to the restroom. Not long after that, the manager walked in with a few waitresses to serve them some imported snacks and milk-based beverages."Who else is there on the second floor?" asked Lucas nonchalantly.The manager's smile froze at the question. "Umm… Sorry, Mister Lucas. I can

Edmund opened the cubicle door and saw Joey's hands dripping wet and his face all scrunched up."Sorry. I… I didn't mean to do it! Mister, I accidentally made Joey trip, and both of his hands went into the toilet bowl," said 'Bryan' guiltily.Edmund was speechless. 'I guess it's true you can never take your eyes off of kids since all kinds of things can happen…'Edmund did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Joey looking at his own hands with disgust."It's okay, Joey. We'll just need to give your hands a good wash. Let's go over to the sink now," he comforted him.Joey was kind of a clean freak as well. He was visibly made uncomfortable by the toilet bowl water on his hands, so he quickly nodded and followed Edmund over to the sink.By the time Edmund turned around after he finished helping Joey wash his hands, 'Bryan' was already gone.'Sh*t, this isn't good!' he thought with a frown.…Meanwhile, in the other private booth, Sophia was carrying the real Bryan in her

Thus, Sophia had no choice but to suppress her anger. 'I'll show them what's what when we're home!' she thought.However, it was still hard for her to process her emotions so quickly, so she got up and said, "Please look after Benjamin while I go to the restroom."After that, she strode out of the private booth angrily.She had never been treated so badly by any other people in the world. The only two people who had ever made her that angry were Jeremy and Benjamin.It was very frustrating, to say the least.After Sophia went out, Jeremy looked down at the little boy in his lap. "Why did you say something like that?" he asked curiously.'Benjamin' did not feel like he had done anything wrong. He really did not like Sophia from the bottom of his heart."I just don't like her touching me!" he answered honestly.Jeremy frowned. "No matter what, she's still your mother. You can't talk like that to your mother. You must respect her."'Benjamin' understood that, but Sophia was not h

"Why are you crying?!" shouted Sophia. She looked up and was shocked to see the other person was Benjamin."Owie… It hurts!" cried Benjamin, holding his scraped knee.'When did he come out?' thought Sophia with bewilderment. 'No, that can't be right. Even if he followed me out, he would've bumped into me from the other side.'In other words, the kid who bumped into her was the real Benjamin. Of course, she had no way of knowing that.Benjamin had run out of the restroom to escape notice from Joey and Edmund. He was in so much of a rush that he did not look where he was going, and thus he knocked into Sophia.The little kid immediately stopped crying at the question. "I… I came out from the restroom and… And…" he tried to explain guiltily.'He came out from the restroom? But how could that be when I was the first one out of the room? I didn't see him walking past me at all…' thought Sophia, puzzled. She looked to the front, then to her back. 'I guess he could've made one big round

'Benjamin must be running very quickly so he could catch up to me,' thought Sophia. She was pleasantly surprised by Benjamin's gesture. 'I can't believe he's willing to apologize to me! Well, I guess there's a first for everything.'She decided to play the compassionate mother in front of Jeremy."Benjamin, I wasn't angry at you. But please don't speak like that to Mommy again. It breaks Mommy's heart whenever you say things like that."Benjamin had no idea what she was talking about. In fact, his dislike for Sophia increased after experiencing Corinne's warmth.He turned his head away to avoid looking at her and snuggled himself closer to Jeremy.Sophia's expression froze once more at being snubbed like that. However, she told herself that the kid was just feeling rotten from scraping his knees, so she decided not to pursue the matter.…The auction had not really started. Corinne and Lucas were having a casual chat about the competition they might face during the auction.Edm

Chapter 1470

After staying with Jeremy for a while, Benjamin felt like going back to Corinne again.He wanted to stay with her for a few days before going back to Jeremy for good. Thus, using his old trick, he looked up at his father and said, "Daddy, I need to go pee.""Okay, I'll go with you," said Jeremy as he got ready to wheel himself out.Benjamin shook his head. "No need. I'm a big boy now, so I can go alone."Jeremy patted his head. "I know you're a big boy now, but I'm not going with you because I'm worried about you but because I need to pee too.""Oh… Okay…" said Benjamin. He did not plan for this to happen.Sophia quickly got up too when she saw the two of them were going out. "Zachary, let me help you."Jeremy put up his hand. "No need. I can do it by myself. Plus, it's not appropriate for you to go into the men's restroom. You also need to stay here for the auction."It was indeed true what he said, so Sophia had no choice but to say, "Okay. Just be careful. Call me if you nee
