Listen Audiobook Version:



After Michael helped the waiter up and she saw the concern in his eyes, she became momentarily confused. Was this gentle person in front of her the same as the violent one from earlier?

"I'm fine." the waiter shook her head and said.

But the man didn't let go of her. Instead, he swore under his breath, and then pulled up her sleeve to check.

As he pulled up her sleeve, Michael could see that her hand was red and inflamed.

His expression changed slightly as he said in a deep voice, "First, cool the area with cold water."

Afterwards, Michael personally accompanied her to the back of the restaurant while she rinsed her hand with cold water. He stayed by her side the whole time.

The pain from the burn quickly subsided as the cold water washed over it. Because it was winter, once she finished rinsing with cold water, her hand was almost completely numb.

When she came out, Michael stood in front of her. "I'm really sorry, let me take you to the hospital."

"No need, it's just a minor burn. The cold water will do." The waiter politely declined.

"Come on, it's my responsibility." Michael said gently.

Facing the handsome and gentle face of the man, the waiter couldn't resist anymore.

As Eva returned home, she felt a sense of relief, although there was still some guilt in her heart.

She used to feel overwhelmed by his kindness, like a mountain pressing down on her. But now, after turning herself into a bad person, she suddenly felt that things were better. At least she was no longer burdened by shackles. "Mummy, you're back." Dylan called out to her from the entrance.

Eva snapped back to reality and saw Dylan. She walked over to him and said, "Hmm, were you waiting for Mummy?"

Dylan's little face showed a worried expression.

"Mummy, are you fighting with Uncle Michael?"

Eva shook her head. "We didn't fight, we just clarified some things."

Upon hearing this, Dylan seemed to sense something. "Mummy, does Uncle Michael... want to be our dad?"

This question made Eva silent for a moment, then she explained, "Perhaps he used to, but I don't think he'll think about it anymore after today."

Her words were so harsh, that only someone with self-destructive-tendencies, like Michael, would choose to continue pursuing her.

"Mummy, did you reject Uncle Michael?" The little one understood her words.

"Yes, I did." Eva nodded.

"Will Uncle Michael still come to see us in the future?" Dylan asked.

"I don't know." Eva sighed.

Actually, it's better if he doesn't come. Not seeing each other can help us sever ties completely.

Dylan thought for a moment and asked, "Then, Mummy, do we still have to live here?"

Upon hearing this, Eva looked up at the house.

To be honest, they shouldn't stay here. After all, this is Michael's house. Even though she already paid the rent, but... They haven't been back in the country for a month, and they would have already moved three times. Eva herself didn't mind; an adult can sleep anywhere. But if kids have to move frequently, she doesn't know if they can adjust.

Considering this, Eva said to Dylan, "Do you mind moving? Will it affect you?"

Dylan shook his head and then said, "Mummy, if you want to move, I will tell Ruby."

"Okay, thank you for doing that." Eva ruffled Dylan's hair.

Before going to bed, Eva glanced at her chat history with NightA.

He still hadn't replied, their conversation was still stuck on her explanations.

She worried, did he go to the restuarant and leave without waiting for her, thinking she stood him up and got angry, not wanting to talk to her anymore?

Or did something come up and that's why he hasn't replied to her messages?

Based on the current situation, it seemed more likely to be the former.

If it's the latter, it's already late, how could he not have had time to check messages on his phone?

After much thought, Eva finally decided to go to bed.

The next day, Eva mentioned her rental issue to Tim. Since he was a local, she wanted to ask if he knew of any rental listings.

Upon hearing this, Tim said, "You want to rent a house? This is so sudden. Normally, when people first come to Chicago, they have already sorted out such things."

Eva didn't plan to disclose her personal matters, so she just smiled faintly, "I have my reasons, I just need you to let me know if you hear of anything that is available."

Hearing this, Tim raised an eyebrow and said, "Could it be that the place you're staying at was prepared by Mr. Cooper before? And now, you suddenly want to move out... did you reject him?" Why is this man so perceptive?

"If you could focus your gossiping tendencies on work, I think our company's business might improve." Eva deliberately said.

"Without work, a person can easily become bored. But I suggest that if you consider long-term business development, it's best to buy a house nearby instead of moving around in the future." Tim laughed. Eva had thought about this, but Adrian's frequent appearances recently made her hesitate and wonder if coming back to America for business development was a mistake.

If her children would eventually be taken away by Adrian, she might as well stay overseas and do some other small businesses, instead of starting a company.

Seeing her furrow her brows, Tim asked, "Something on your mind?"

Eva snapped back to reality and shook her head, "It's nothing."

If she kept hesitating and looking back, wouldn't she be letting down the people who came to work at her company?

Moreover, she had personally raised her children for five years. Even if he wanted to take her children, he might not succeed.

Besides, he already had someone else to bear children for him.

At the school entrance, a five-year-old boy, sat in the car with his backpack on his back.

Since he got in the car, he had been sitting uncomfortably in the corner, afraid to make a sound.

This person was George and Mary's child, Lucas.

With the sudden move and change of schools, and the appearance of a man he had to call Uncle and ride to school with, the five-year-old was extremely nervous at the moment. Moreover, ever since he saw him, that imposing man had been wearing a serious expression.

Children are the most sensitive to emotions. They can sense immediately if someone likes or dislikes them.

He could sense that this uncle didn't like him.

But if he didn't like him, why did he suddenly bring so many good things to their home?

He didn't quite understand.

"Mr. Blackwood, we have arrived." the driver's voice came from the front of the car after it stopped.

The child immediately sat up straight, clasping his hands together, feeling even more overwhelmed.

The man's cold and almost mechanical voice came, "From now on, I am your uncle. You will live with me, so don't call me by the wrong name, understood?"

Lucas was a sensible and timid child, and he immediately nodded, "Understood, Uncle."

His timid behavior made Adrian frown a little displeased, "Are you afraid of me?"

If Dylan and Ruby saw him acting like this, they would think he was a very strict uncle, wouldn't they?
