Chapter 301

In the afternoon, Alex woke up on the couch in Justin’s office, rubbing his sleepy little hands over his eyes. Once fully awake, he looked around the empty room—Uncle Justin was nowhere in sight. Slipping on his tiny shoes, Alex hopped off the couch and padded over to the door. Pushing it open, he called out, “Uncle Justin?” As he wandered through the executive suite, he passed a flurry of activity where busy assistants worked at their desks. One of the secretaries kindly pointed him in the right direction, and Alex followed the hallway until he reached the conference room. Inside, Justin had just wrapped up a meeting. Spotting Alex at the door, he immediately walked over and crouched down to scoop him up. “Awake?” Justin asked, his voice uncharacteristically soft. The executive director standing behind Justin was stunned. The resemblance between this boy and both the CEO and the marketing manager, Emma, was uncanny. While it wasn’t as noticeable when the boy was asle

Zac called. “I’m downstairs in front of your building. When are you bringing Alex down?”“Coming now,” Justin replied.Alex’s head drooped, his disappointment obvious. The sadness on his face was plain to see. Happy moments always felt so short, and he knew it was time to go back. The moment he heard Aunt Helen’s voice on Uncle Zac’s call, he had known they were coming to take him home. At least they hadn’t interrupted his lunch. He was already grateful to Uncle Zac for that. Justin felt a twinge of reluctance as well, but after all, Alex wasn’t his child. Instead of letting Alex walk, Justin carried him in his arms as they headed downstairs. William followed behind, holding the bags of items Justin had bought for Alex. The walk down was quiet, with a faint melancholy hanging over them. Outside the building, Zac stood by the flower bed near the main entrance. “Took you long enough,” Zac said, reaching out to take Alex. “Come on, Alex, I will take you home.” But A

Zac glanced at Alex and couldn’t help but agree with what Helen had said. Alex really was a tough little rascal with nerves of steel.No wonder his Aunt Helen was always so short-tempered.When they were in Merika State, Justin had faintly overheard Helen’s voice on the phone. She really did sound like someone who wasn’t in the best of health. “If it’s your aunt, I’ll go to the hospital with you to visit her,” Justin said. It would be a good opportunity to meet Alex’s family. If his aunt was truly unwell and couldn’t manage caring for Alex, Justin wouldn’t mind taking him in for a while.After all, Alex wasn’t a troublesome kid.“No, no need for that,” Zac quickly interjected, reaching out to scoop Alex into his own arms. “You’re a busy CEO. There’s no reason for you to go out of your way to visit the hospital. Besides, patients need rest. If you want to send your regards, I’ll happily pass them along.“Bye now!” Zac hurriedly carried Alex toward the car, moving as though som

Chapter 304

“Mr. Yates has a kid? Isn’t he unmarried?” Another colleague joined the group chat. “Who says you have to be married to have a kid? And who even knows if he’s single? Secret marriages are all the rage these days.” “Speculating won’t get us anywhere. We’ve got proof—someone who went to the top floor to report saw him holding the boy and snapped a photo.” The photo showed Justin outside the conference room holding Alex, with Alex’s face clearly visible. “Wow, this kid looks…” “You think he looks like Mr. Yates and Emma too, right?” The colleague silently nodded. It wasn’t just a resemblance—it was as if the boy was their child. “If Miss Xander already had a kid with Mr. Yates, why is she still stuck in the marketing department? Shouldn’t she have been promoted to a core department by now?” “Who knows? Maybe his family doesn’t approve, so she’s been stuck waiting to marry him. Otherwise, why wouldn’t they go public or hold a wedding?” The group nodded in agre

The woman left, but Emma sat restlessly in her leather office chair, unable to stop thinking about the child in the photo. Who could have given birth to Justin’s child? Over the past five years, the only place she couldn’t gain access to was Villa One. Everywhere else around Justin, she had planted informants. So how had a son suddenly appeared out of nowhere? Judging by the boy’s age, he had to be four or five years old. Five or six years ago… Could it have been Emily? No, that didn’t make sense—Emily was dead. Was there another woman in Justin’s life back then? Or could it have been a one-night stand she didn’t know about? Irritated by her thoughts, Emma decided to go upstairs to confirm her suspicions. *On the top floor, in the CEO’s office, Emma walked up to Lila.“Lila, where’s the child the boss brought in?” Emma asked with a practiced smile, feigning a warm and familiar demeanor toward the boy. Only she knew how forced that smile was. “Oh, you me

Emma turned, her eyes flashing with hatred as she watched Sam’s figure disappear down the hallway. He was clearly using his position to make things difficult for her. It was just an event proposal, yet he kept finding excuses to reject it. Typical of someone from Emily’s era—none of them deserved to remain. Sooner or later, she would make sure Sam was ousted from his position and removed from Justin’s side. She thought back to the first couple of years after Emily’s death, when she had repeatedly tried to pry information about Justin’s schedule from Sam. Yet every time, he would deflect her questions with vague replies and change the subject. What a loyal, obedient dog!Too bad he always stood in her way. Gripping the file, Emma stormed back to her office. With a loud slam, she threw it onto her desk in frustration. She knew Justin’s prideful nature but hadn’t expected him to have such a soft spot for children. All the way back, her mind had been turning. If sh

Zac parked the car at the spot where Helen had asked to be dropped off. “Are you sure you don’t want me to take you to your doorstep? These bags are pretty heavy,” he offered. Helen shot him a glance, fully aware of his ulterior motive. “No need,” she replied coolly. “I can manage these with Alex’s help.“Right, Alex?” Alex tilted his head, looking at her in confusion. He couldn’t understand why Aunt Helen was pretending. Wouldn’t it be better to let Uncle Zac take the bags inside? Eventually, he would become part of the family.Zac opened the trunk and handed the bags over to Helen, one by one. Alex, however, stood there with his small backpack, completely empty-handed. The books and workbooks Uncle Justin had given him were already stuffed in his backpack. There was no way he could let Aunt Helen find out about them. He would have to get rid of them secretly later. *When they arrived home, Haley had just stepped out of her art studio. She was wearing a white apron,

“Is Mom coming with you?” Haley asked. Chase sat quietly beside Richard, his wide eyes glued to the laptop screen as he stared at his mom. It had been a while since he had last seen her, and he missed her dearly. Haley, watching through the screen, couldn’t help but smile at Chase. Meanwhile, Richard kept chattering away. “Mom’s overseeing a batch of experimental research drugs—it’s still in the testing phase, so she can’t come with us. Plus, there’s a weapons shipment needed in Southeast Atlantis, and with Wilfred busy in Haven State, Mom had to step in and take over.”Helen suddenly leaned in and asked, “Then why are you coming here? Shouldn’t you be there helping her?” “I wanted to!” Richard said with a sigh. “But Chase kept saying how much he missed his mom. What could I do? I had to bring him over.” He continued, “I’d originally planned to take Chase along and teach him the ins and outs of weapons trading, but missing this one time isn’t the end of the world. Seeing

At the Gibson estate, the men of the family gathered for dinner after work. Xena sat silently, her head bowed as she picked at her food, a heavy and gloomy expression clouding her face. Meanwhile, Ethan and Mr. Gibson discussed company projects at the table. Mr. Gibson Sr. cast a cold glance at Xena before turning to Mrs. Gibson. “What did you hear from their side after the apology today? Did you meet Wilfred?” Mr. Gibson Sr. cared little about Haley’s feelings as Wilfred was the one in charge. As long as Wilfred forgave Xena, the collaboration between their families could proceed smoothly. Mrs. Gibson sipped her soup before replying, “Mr. Wilfred must’ve gone to the office. Haley was the only one at home. She accepted Xena’s apology and the gifts, but she said any discussions about the collaboration would need to be handled by Wilfred. She doesn’t involve herself in business matters.” Mr. Gibson Sr.’s sharp, hawk-like eyes gleamed. “Hmph, she really knows how to deflect

“Perfect timing. We’ll take him to the airport in a bit and give him a surprise,” Haley said with a smile. Alex, still half-asleep, rubbed his eyes and murmured. Finding his mom by his side, he was disoriented, unsure if he was dreaming or awake. “Mommy, Chase, Uncle Justin...” Alex mumbled as he rolled into Haley’s arms, his voice soft and unclear. He didn’t want to get up. He wished Uncle Justin, Mommy, and his brother could all be with him right now. Haley only caught him calling her name. The rest was too muffled, likely just dream talk, she thought. Seeing him sleeping soundly and unable to wake up, Haley decided to let him continue resting. After all, he had spent hours in the garden playing with his drone the night before, exhausting himself completely. She gently pulled over a nearby light blanket to cover his stomach and kissed his forehead before leaving the room. The entire moment was full of motherly affection. Alex slept soundly until they were already in
