“Oh, okay, Aunt,” Alex replied obediently, handing the phone back to Justin. Although Alex didn’t understand why his aunt didn’t come over to thank them—something he found quite impolite—he knew he couldn’t afford to be rude himself. With a polite smile, he sincerely said, “Thank you, Mr. Yates and Mr. White. My aunt is waiting for me over there, so I’ll head back now.”Justin frowned, his concern evident. What kind of parent or guardian lets a child wander off and doesn’t even come to fetch them? Letting the kid walk back alone felt irresponsible.“We’ll walk you over,” he said firmly, unwilling to let the child go by himself.Alex waved his hand. “It’s fine, Mr. Yates. It’s really close! I’ll call you when I get home, okay?” A glimmer of mischief flashed in Alex’s big, sparkling eyes. Now that he had Mr. Yates’s phone number, staying in touch wouldn’t be a problem. “Alright, but be careful. We’ll watch you until you’re safe.”“Got it!” Alex chirped, jogging to the corner be

When Sean first saw them again at university, he was thrilled. However, when he learned that Haley had children and that she had been pregnant during the earthquake, his emotions took a heavy toll. That night, he returned to his dorm and cried in private. Haley’s survival and her safe delivery were nothing short of miraculous, but the thought of her enduring so much pain enraged him. He cursed Justin inwardly for being such a bastard. The next morning, when they crossed paths again, Sean’s eyes were visibly swollen. After graduating, Sean chose to stay in Merika State, where he launched a tech company that quickly became a major success. Meanwhile, Haley and Helen teamed up to open an art gallery. Haley’s name made a triumphant return to the art scene, with her focusing on her creations while Helen managed operations and acted as her agent. *At the gallery, Haley donned an apron and worked alongside her team, arranging paintings and preparing the exhibition space for an up

Haley slumped into the front passenger seat, exhaustion etched on her face. Helen started the car and handed her a coffee. “Here, sis, I got you a coffee. Take a sip to perk up.”“Alex, hand the coffee to your mom,” Helen instructed.“Okay,” Alex replied, carefully passing the coffee from the back seat. “Thanks, Alex,” Haley said with a tired smile, taking the cup from him.Lately, her time had been consumed by preparations for the art exhibition, leaving little room to spend with her children. The family had stepped in to help. Alex stayed with Helen, while Chase spent time with Wilfred. They were now on their way to pick up Chase and Wilfred. Tonight, Evelyn had booked a table at a restaurant to celebrate Haley’s upcoming art show, wishing her success in advance. Over the past five years, Haley’s life had been smooth and fulfilling, free of worries and full of support.In Wilfred’s office, he was wrapping up his work while Chase sat at a small desk nearby, studying business m

“Hello, Mom.”“Where have you been? I messaged you to meet at the restaurant, and why didn’t you go? Do you know that poor girl has been waiting for you forever?” Heidi’s angry voice came through the phone. This time, she hadn’t set him up with some heiress from a wealthy family. Instead, she had found a girl who bore a striking resemblance to Emily.“Mom, didn’t I tell you already? I’m not interested in blind dates.”“At least give me the courtesy of checking her out! Show a little respect for me, will you?” Heidi ranted, so agitated that she felt like her heart might give out. “If you weren’t going to show up, you could’ve just told me!”Justin sighed. His schedule was packed, and he genuinely hadn’t had a moment to check his messages. As he glanced around, he thought he caught sight of Alex’s small figure out of the corner of his eye. Squinting, he looked again, but all he saw was a potted plant nearby. Maybe he had imagined it. Distractedly, he replied, “Fine, Mom. When I g

Justin pushed open the private dining room door, carrying Alex in his arms. The reactions around the table were varied. The female business partner, in particular, looked utterly shocked. Spotting Alex was as if she had seen someone incredibly influential. It hadn’t crossed her mind that they might know the Walker family.Zac was momentarily surprised to see Justin walk in with a child, but the moment he recognized Alex, it all made sense. His tone turned casual as he remarked, “How’d you run into Alex?”He stood, giving up his seat to make room for them.Justin settled into his seat, placing Alex on his lap rather than letting him sit separately. Alex didn’t mind at all. He was quite content to stay where he was. Noticing Alex might be hungry, Justin picked up a fork and began offering him small bites of food. He even instructed the server to bring a fresh set of utensils for Alex. Once Alex was taken care of, Justin turned to Zac and responded, “I bumped into him while I was o

“Let me take you back,” Justin offered.Alex was about to agree, but Zac swept him into his arms before he could respond. “You’re staying here with the partners,” Zac said in Havenese. “I’ll take him back.”Alex glanced between the two men, his sharp eyes catching their conversation. It was clear he understood every word. Wrapping his little arms around Zac’s neck, he decided it wasn’t a bad deal. This uncle was pretty handsome too.Zac carried Alex securely as he stood to leave the private room. As they approached the door, Alex waved at Justin with a sweet smile. “Goodbye, Mr. Yates,” he said in fluent Havenese, his tone impeccably polite.Zac’s expression darkened slightly as he walked toward the lobby, casually probing, “Alex, what’s your aunt’s name?”Without hesitation, Alex chirped, “My aunt? Her name is—”Before he could finish, his wide eyes spotted Helen’s figure in the distance. Excitedly, he pointed forward with his chubby finger. “There she is! My aunt’s right ther

“Alex, didn’t I tell you not to interact with those two men anymore?” Helen scolded as she led him back to the private dining room. Alex tilted his head up at her, wide-eyed with innocence. “Aunt Helen, you only said not to bring them to the corner to find you. You didn’t say I couldn’t meet them again.” Helen felt her words catch in her throat, momentarily stunned. She huffed in frustration and amended, “Well, I’m saying it now. From now on, don’t meet with those two men again. Got it? If you see them, stay far away!” Alex nodded solemnly, but inside, he was sure of something else entirely. Aunt Helen must be afraid that Mommy would find a boyfriend while she was still single. With a determined squeeze of Helen’s hand, Alex declared, “Don’t worry, Aunt Helen. I’ll help you find a boyfriend too. And even if I can’t, I’ll stay with you forever and take care of you when you’re old.” Helen froze, her forehead twitching as if her frustration was written all over her forehead

Before Alex could finish his sentence, Helen yanked him into the room in one swift motion. From her bedside table, she grabbed a bag of snacks and shoved it into Alex’s arms as a bribe. Both hands firmly gripping his tiny shoulders, she looked him in the eye with utmost seriousness. “Alex, forget about what happened this afternoon. Don’t bring it up again—especially not to anyone in the family. And absolutely not to Uncle Richard.”She could already imagine Richard’s relentless teasing if he got wind of it. Alex glanced at the bag of snacks in his arms, then cheekily held up two fingers, silently bargaining for a second bag. Helen narrowed her eyes at him, feigning irritation. “Fine, two bags.” Quickly, she stuffed another bag into his arms and shooed him out of the room. The door clicked softly behind him before Alex could say another word. Grinning from ear to ear, he looked at the two bags of snacks in his hands. His brother didn’t like snacks, so these were all his.

Haley gazed at her sleeping sons, their delicate faces and brows resembling Justin’s more than her own. The bond of blood was truly remarkable, she thought, her emotions swirling as she stood there in silence. After a while, she turned off the lights and left the room.Meanwhile, Justin and Zac finished their meeting and left the restaurant earlier than Evelyn’s group, sparing them a chance encounter. Yet, as Justin exited, he glanced back inside, hoping for a glimpse of a small figure that never appeared.Returning to their hotel, Zac grabbed two cases of beer and joined Justin in his room. He was already tipsy from their business dinner, but now he drank even more. His cheeks were flushed, and his eyes glistened as he slumped on the couch, beer bottle dangling from his hand.The bitterness in his heart bubbled to the surface as he turned to Justin, rambling incoherently. “Why did Helen disappear too? Tell me… why?” He tugged at Justin’s shirt collar, his voice trembling and punctu

Helen shook her head, her tone flustered. “No, it’s not like that…” “Not like that? Then why did you leave me? Five years, Helen. Was I not good enough for you?” Zac’s lips pouted in mock indignation, but his voice betrayed genuine hurt. Helen’s gaze locked onto his slightly parted lips, which glistened with a subtle allure under the dim light. They seemed almost hypnotic, a magnet pulling her closer. His voice, however, broke the spell. It was so irritatingly loud, drowning out her thoughts. She frowned. “If he wouldn’t stop talking, then she’d make him stop.”The idea formed quickly, and she acted on it just as fast. Her hands flew up, cupping his face, as she leaned in. But no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t close the distance between them. Frustration bubbled in her chest. If she couldn’t get to him, then she would make sure he came to her. With determination, she yanked his face closer and puckered her lips. *Thud!A plush toy smacked against Helen’s f
