Chapter 239
Stacey and Hayden had no idea Jenny had already set her sights on them, but they weren't afraid of it because the Carter family had long been well- prepared for it. Several children constantly followed Stacey's children, making Jenny didn't have the chance to take action on her children.
Furthermore, Adrian had requested that someone dig into the information about Jenny and Dorothy. After such a long time of investigation, he had gathered a large amount of information and evidence that could be presented to the court. However, the conclusive evidence of Dorothy's scheme against Edwin's children couldn't be discovered or submitted to the court because it had been much too long. After receiving the proof, Adrian checked and verified it before heading home.
After arriving home, Adrian showed all of the evidence to Stacey and explained the findings of his investigation. While he was explaining, Hayden sat alongside them. Hayden frowned slightly as if unsure about Jenny and Stacey's relationship. Noticing Hayden's doubt, Adrian hesitated for a moment and took the initiative to explain it to Hayden.
Hayden's eyes darkened after he heard that. He reviewed all the evidence brought back by Adrian and eventually returned it to Stacey, asking, "Do you want to put her in jail?"
Mutilation of little children was a severe felony in Menterra, punished by at least 130 years in prison. They believed Jenny wouldn't come out alive after 130 years of punishment in prison.
Stacey had mixed feelings. Among the materials Adrian had collected, there were photos of Jenny's ex-husband Jeffrey's daughter. That girl was very adorable, but she was killed by Jenny. "Yes, I do," she admitted, nodding without hesitation.
Adrian said, "Then, I'll hand over the evidence to Jeffrey and arrange for the best lawyer for him. I promise to send Jenny to jail."
Hayden turned to gaze at Adrian, thinking for a moment before stating, "I have some connections in Menterra. If you need my help, just let me know, and I'll assign someone to handle it."
Upon hearing this, Adrian shook his head and responded, "No need. I'm simply obeying the law. With your connections, it's a waste of talent on such a case."
After saying that, everyone found it amusing and busted out laughing. Although Stacey and Adrian had no idea what connections Hayden had, they could certainly surmise that it was truly pointless to ask someone with high authority to execute such a small task for them.
After deciding how to deal with Jenny, Adrian took away the evidence he had collected through hard work.
A few days later, the year-end entertainment ceremony was due to take place. Stacey had promised Charlie and Lynn that she would attend, and she had also received an invitation card, as did Hayden.
Hayden was, however, invited as a special identity. His invitation card was substantially different from Stacey's. It was a gold-embossed invitation card that appeared highly distinguished. When the invitation card was delivered to him, she even peeked at it several times, thinking that it looked very noble. He was amused and handed it to her so she could look over it.
However, the invitation card was only a small episode. Soon, it was time for them to attend the event. There were still three children, but Stacey had no plans to keep them at home. She could only be secure if she kept them with her and could access them at any time.
Therefore, Charlie had made the necessary arrangements for her in advance. They had already discussed it with the entertainment ceremony organizer and were able to make arrangements.
Hayden didn't even need Charlie's help. He easily addressed these issues on his own and could take Jeremy there as agreed with the organizer. Stacey had no doubts about his remarks as she recalled his gold-embossed invitation card.
Lillian and Kevin were ecstatic to learn that they could go out with Stacey and meet Charlie.
Jeremy was also thrilled. He had never been to an entertainment ceremony before. He remembered Hayden telling him that it was where his mother used to receive the award for her efforts, so he wanted to go and see Becky stand on stage and accept the award for himself.
Patrick knew they were heading out a few days before and had requested permission to use the helicopter ahead of time. So, this time, they could fly there in their private helicopter.
Lillian and Kevin had taken helicopters before, but they were still quite attracted to them. When they saw the helicopter, their eyes shone with excitement.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Stacey found them amusing. She reached out to pick up Lillian and load her into the helicopter. Hayden also picked up Kevin and loaded him into it. Jeremy was three years old, but he still still struggled to get into the helicopter by himself. In the end, Hayden picked him up, and Jeremy climbed up.
The country had strict flight

controls. Even if there were private planes and helicopters available, they would have to apply ahead of time if they wished to fly. Lillian, Kevin, and Jeremy rarely took the helicopters, despite Stacey and Hayden having one at home. After stepping onboard the helicopter, the three children's excitement was evident as they looked around and touched things.
Following Stacey and Hayden, Gwen and Marie boarded with some tiny items from Lillian and Kevin in their hands.
Jeremy had a small backpack, but all of his belongings were with Hayden.

turned around, she discovere

Jeremy had already taken a seat, and Hayden had helped him fasten his seat belt.
"My house... has one, too," Jeremy spoke in an odd tone, but he spoke it out.
Stacey and Hayden were astonished when they heard that. Then, they both laughed.
"Next time when I go to your house, can I see the helicopter?" Stacey asked, smiling at Jeremy.
Jeremy's eyes shone with delight, and he quickly nodded, adding, "Hmm!"
Hayden, giggling, turned to face Lillian and Kevin and smiled, inquiring, "Lillian and Kevin, would you like to take my helicopter next time?" Upon hearing that, Lillian and Kevin looked at Hayden with excitement. Kevin asked, "Is your helicopter different from ours?"
Hayden, smiling, nodded and replied, "There are some differences."
"I want to see it!" Lillian exclaimed with excitement.
"Me, too!" Kevin also shouted excitedly.
"Okay. Why don't you and your mommy take my helicopter the next time we go back to Alagua City together?" Hayden suggested with a smile.
"Okay!" Kevin agreed loudly.
"Hmm!" Lillian also responded with tremendous excitement.
