Chapter 39
This realization made Emmett, who is usually very calm, feel a sense of unease. There was a child who looked exactly like Aident He looked at that face, and he didn’t need to doubt for a moment whether this was his own child It was impossible for plastic surgery to achieve such an uncanny resemblance!
“L.. I am Aiden, Dad” Alex was momentarily flustered and turned to run!
Emmett was about to reach out and grab him but was bumped by a security guard from behind.
“Quick! A child just slipped int Find out where he went! The security guard turned back to look, startled to see Emmett. He spoke hesitantly “CEO.
“Step aside Emmett’s face was stemm Tm leaving now!”
As Emmett turned around again, the little boy from earlier had vanished! If it weren’t for the chaos around him, he would have thought it was all just a dream!
Was that little boy a twin of Aiden?
Emmett furrowed his brow and took out his phone to call his father.
“Dad, I need to know who that woman was back then”
Finally, Clara looked up from her busy work-
It was already eight o’clock!
Damn, Alex
She immediately got up and grabbed her bag, ready to bolt. Just as she was about to get on the elevator, Emmett happened to walk out!
“Mr. Melendez.”
“Why are you in such a hurry”
Emmett glanced at her, frowning
“I forgot to pick up my son from school. He’s probably still at school! I have to go now, sorry Mr. Melendez Clara rushed out, only for Emmett to call out to her from behind
“Clara, did your son come to the company?”
Clara was taken aback, quickly shaking her head, “No way, my son is timid. He wouldn’t come to the company! He must be waiting for me at the kindergarten”
“Then you go ahead”
The kid from earlier certainly didn’t seem timidi
Clara nodded, hastily getting on the elevator to go downstairs.
At the company’s entrance, she frantically hailed a cab. Just as she was about to get in, she felt a hand tug at her clothes!
Clara turned around-
“Alex? How did you get here?”
“Mom, you forgot to pick me up. So, I came myself!” Alex seemed to remember something, pushing Clara into the car and then following her in, “Mom, get in the car first,
let’s talk later!”
Once in the car, Clara suddenly remembered what Emmett had said to her…
‘Did Emmett see you?”
Alex lowered his head, remaining silent.
“I’m asking you, did Emmett see you? The man from the magazine you showed me before!” Clara inquired, her voice filled with concern.
Alex nervously bit his lip and nodded guiltily. I’m sorry, Mom. I wanted to surprise you, so I came here. But he didn’t catch me! I cleverly managed to escape!”
Clara’s frown deepened as she looked at her son.
“Alex, why would you do that? Haven’t I warned you numerous times? Don’t come to my workplace, don’t interact with wealthy people, and don’t let too many people see your face! Why don’t you ever listen to me?”
The thought of someone recognizing Alex’s face from years ago terrified Clara. She couldn’t bear the idea of losing him. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“I’m sorry, Mom… I promise I won’t do it again… Alex replied remorsefully.
“Alex, this is not a joke. If you are ever discovered, we might be separated forever I can’t even begin to imagine such a day”
