*Off to work.”

“No need for work today, Aiden will be here soon.

Clara froze, “Is he coming this early?”

“Yeah”

Thinking of seeing her son soon, Clara easily pushed aside her work.

“Cool! Can I use your kitchen? I want to cook something special for Aiden.”

Emmett glanced at her, somewhat surprised, “You get this excited just mentioning Aiden?”

In all the time they’ve known each other, she never once offered to cook for him,

“Because… I adore kids! And Aiden is so cute, I can’t resist!”

“I should warn you, Aiden is quite introverted. If he acts a bit aloof or indifferent towards

you, don’t take it to heart.”

Clara nodded immediately. “No worries, Mr. Melendez I won’t mind.”

She believed Aiden wouldn’t be cold towards her!

“Then….save a portion of whatever you’re making for me, too.”

“Any problem?”

Clara shook her head immediately. “No! I’ll start cooking now.”

Watching her cheerful departure, Emmett furrowed his brow.

Was he jealous of his own son?

When was the last time Clara was this happy to see him?

Emmett lifted his hand, massaging his temples, trying to shake off these strange thoughts

She was just a contract bride he used to appease his parents, why was he treating her as

if she was his real wife?

Emmett took a deep breath.

Perhaps the lack of female presence in his life for so long had led to these stray thoughts

about Clara.

Yes, that must be it

In Europe, it was already night.

Alex, clutching his teddy bear and watching cartoons, immediately dropped it and ran over

when the doorbell rang.

“Mr Milburn! You’re back from the hospital!”

“Yeah.” Elio hung up his coat and lifted Alex from the ground, “Miss me?”

Alex grinned, ‘Of course!”

“You cheeky little thing, making it impossible not to love you!” Elio gave him a peck on the

cheek before carrying him to his bedroom.

Alex quickly laid his head on Elio’s shoulder.

“Mr Milburn, can I call you dad from now on?”

Elio was stunned, “Huh?”

“I want to call you dad! I want you to be my dad!” Alex grinned, “No one else is good

enough, only you would be the perfect dad! I think you and mom, are a great match!”

“Really?” After a moment’s thought, Elio smirked, “But your mom’s been giving me the

cold shoulder, she doesn’t accept me!”

Alex laughed. Then you have to win me over, I’m her son, I have a say! I can help you get

her to marry you!”

Elio raised an eyebrow, “You sure?”

“I’m sure! Just trust me! I’ve grown up with my mom, I know best what kind of man she

likes!”

Elio couldn’t help but poke his forehead, “You little devil! You’re even willing to sell out

your own mom!”

“That sounds awful, I’m just trying to find happiness for my mom!”

“Alright, alright, you’re always right! Then Mr Milburn’s happiness for the rest of his life is

all up to you!”

“Don’t worry! As long as you keep the burgers coming, I’ll definitely help you win my mom

over!”

Elio chuckled, he really liked this little guy, Alex!

Although he wasn’t his biological child, he was still a kid he watched grow up.

If he could truly marry Clara in the future, they would make a complete family!
