Clara clung tightly to the doctor’s hand. Her reddened eyes staring at her, “I’m begging

you… please keep my secret!”

“This….”

They don’t need to know….I beg you! Otherwise, I’ll really die….”

Five years later, in a city.

Clara was up early.

She prepared her son Alex’s favorite breakfast, sandwiches and soya milk. She pushed

open the door of the second bedroom, and gently patted her son’s little burt, “The sun is

up! It’s the first day of school. We can’t be late!”

“Mom… Alex groggily got up, acting spoiled. He wrapped his arms around Clara’s neck,

and kissed her cheek, “Can I sleep for another ten minutes?”

“No way!” Clara helplessly and humorously patted her son’s face, “Did you forget what

mom told you yesterday?”

“Hmm…I need to go to kindergarten, and mommy needs to work, to pay for my

kindergarten fees! But you’ve promised to take me to the amusement park so many

times.” Alex scrunched his small face, “Why don’t you adults keep your promises!”

“Be good. Mom will take you next week.”

“Humph, that’s what you said last time!”

“Mom you’re always tricking me! You used to say dad was dead, but I clearly saw him on

TV!”

Clara felt heartbroken, “Alex. The man on TV can’t possibly be your dad. When you grow

Despite the dissatisfaction on Alex’s face, he obediently got up, dressed, and washed up.

However, when he was packing his school bag, he deliberately put his little piggy bank in

it, along with a few candies from under his pillow.

At the same time, a black Bentley on the street drove by, attracting the envious eyes of

many drivers.

Inside the car, Matt respectfully handed over the documents in his hand, saying, “Sir, this

is the bidding document for this project. These companies are strong and all within our

consideration.”

The man sitting in the back seat didn’t reach out to take the documents. His thin lips

slightly pursed. He just swept a glance with his intense eyes, and waved his

hand

“You handle it.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Go home.”

After the man finished speaking, he turned his gaze to the window.

At this moment, his perfect side profile could be seen clearly in the car’s rear–view mirror.

He had deep contours and perfectly proportionate features. Peach–colored thin lips that

looked like they were painted with lipstick, looking very enticing.

He was the widely known business prodigy Emmett Melendez. The only heir of the

Melendez family, who has been voted the most eligible bachelor in the magazine annual

surveys for six consecutive years.

He was rumored to dislike women and had serious germophobia! In addition, he had a

child with an unknown birth mother. This was announced by the Melendez family three

years ago, which had sparked many discussions and speculations.

‘Is Aiden still refusing to eat?”

Emmett suddenly spoke Mart paused before replying, “Yes, Aiden said if he doesn’t get to

see his mother, he will continue to refuse food.”

“He knows how to threaten people at such a young age.” He sneered coldly, his handsome

face full of coldness and displeasure, “Then let him starve.”

“But sir…”

“Stop talking: I hate noise”

“Okay” As soon as Matt’s voice fell, Emmett’s phone rang.

He glanced down. It was a call from his mother Sophia. As soon as he picked up, he heard

her sobbing.

“Emmett, disaster struck! I lost Aiden‘”
