That evening, at Warren Manor, Nancy reminded her son, “Wait moment, Alex. You should ward off bad luck before entering the house. Alex stopped in his tracks.
He stared at the salt Nancy had prepared, his brow twitching. This wasn’t about clearing bad luck–this superstition felt more like a test of his patience.
Taking in the beautiful silk dress worn by his mom, Alex took a deep breath, stepping into the house. After five long years, laughter finally filled the house once again.
A striking cat ran to Alex’s side, persistently nudging his ankle. “Where did this cat come from?” Alex’s face showed a hint of annoyance.
Evan quickly stepped forward, scooping up the cat. This is Mrs Warren’s pet that she adopted while you w named it Luck Alex fell silent.

His parents exchanged worried glances. After their son’s ordeal in prison, he had returned, lacking memories of Ellie and Haley.
To prepare for any potential issues, Alex’s parents had met with influential families, crafting a shared story and giving strong warnings. With covert help from Jason, they had spent over three months working on this.
They had removed all ties between Alex and Ellie and Haley whether online or offline, leaving no trace behind.
At the dinner table, Todd spoke with his son, no longer carrying the harshness of the past. “Years ago, your actions led to the downfall of the Owens family.
“Ethan sought revenge upon his release; while you shot him, the consequences you faced and the impact on the entire Warren family were huge. The Warren Group isn’t what it used to be.
“Even though your mom and I still own shares, actual control has shifted to other shareholders. Now that you are back, it’s important to think about how to reclaim that power.”
Todd placed all the blame for Ethan’s shooting on Alex, and Alex accepted it without arguing, “Don’t worry, Dad. I will get control of the Warren Group back.”
Nancy added, “During your time away, your father and I canceled your engagement to Ms. Grant.

Life is full of regrets. As they watched their only son enjoy dinner and laughter at their side, Nancy’s eyes shimmered with. tears of happiness.
Todd remained quiet, giving a reassuring pat on his wife’s shoulder. The couple exchanged a glance, both exhaling in relief.
As long as their son was back, they would not hesitate to erase Elfie from his life, even if they had the chance to do it all over again.
After dinner, Alex chatted with his parents for a little while before heading upstairs to rest. He climbed the stairs from the first floor to the second and paused in the hallway for over a mitte.
Once inside his room, he took in the surroundings, feeling like something important was missing. Turning, he asked, “Is there something missing in my room?”
Barry, waiting by the door, lowered his eyes sheepishly. Evan glanced at Nancy, worried.
