Chapter 5: It’s Really Interesting
Jeremy blinked his tear filled eyes, pursed his lips, and refused to speak. His small face turned bright red as he hugged Caleb tightly and leaned on his
shoulder.
Caleb didn’t feel disheartened, but he couldn’t help muttering, “You heartless child, I treat you so well, and you won’t even call me ‘uncle‘
He had gotten used to being hugged by Jeremy; it was the most intimate gesture he could offer.
Even Arthur received similar treatment,
But what about that woman from earlier?
Caleb scratched his head, unable to understand why the little one would call an unknown woman “mom“?
Little Jeremy
Tive years ago, a young beggar rushed to their car, carrying a child in his arms and forced the driver to take the child. That child was I.
Caleb couldn’t forget Jeremy’s pale and bruised face, covered in wounds, as if he had been poisoned and was on the brink of death.
What’s more, there was a note in the swaddle, claiming that the child was Arthur’s!
His older brother, who showed no interest in romantic relationships, suddenly had a child?
Who could believe that?
No one did!
But they all felt sorry for the child, so their only thought at the time was to rush him to the hospital for emergency treatment.
They spared no expense at the best hospital to treat Jeremy. After a couple of months of care, he was finally moved out of the intensive care unit. However, due to his weak constitution from birth, his slain was extremely delicate, and any rough handling, like that by the woman from earlier, could cause injuries.
At the age of five, he was still autistic,
But that didn’t stop the entire family from doting on him, even Arthur, the tough guy, was completely obedient to Jeremy.
In the end, out of boredom. Caleb decided to do a DNA test, and the result shocked him
Jeremy was indeed Arthur’s son!
So, the question that had been plaguing him was how his brother, who showed no interest in romantic relationships, ended up with a child, and who was the child’s mother?
“Why are you standing there? Aren’t you going to investigate?” Arthur’s cold and stern words interrupted Caleb’s thoughts.
Caleb instantly turned timid like a quail, not daring to make a sound, and quickly left.
At the restaurant entrance,
Anna sat in the counter seat, thinking about Jeremy’s distressed face she had seen in the restaurant. She spoke slowly, “I saw a very refined little boy in the restaurant just now, around the same age as our Mason.”
If nothing had happened to Nolan, he would be about the same age as that child.
“Refined? Am I not relined?” M
Mason asked, micking his head out, a jealous look in his eyes. “Mominy, am I not the most refined kid in the world? She
never praised any other refined kid like this!”
“Looking just as handsome as you and equally heartwarming.” Anna said, her lips pursed with concern. She couldn’t explain why she felt a twinge in her heart since she saw that silent little boy.
His stubbornness and shyness hinted at a complicated emotional experience for such a young child. What had he been through that made him so timid and afraid of people?

“Hmph. Uncle Julian, did you hear that? Is this something a mommy should say? Clearly, I’m the most cherished one! She should say I’m her adorable and invincible little treasure, but now she’s feeling sorry for someone else’s child!”
“Uncle Julian, if I don’t find Daddy soon, Mommy will be stolen away by someone else’s child”
but now his mom w was showing concern for another
Mason puffed up his cheeks, his face red with indignation. He didn’t mind being called refined, but
child!
“That works out perfectly then. You find your daddy, and I’ll go find someone else’s child,” she said, not missing an opportunity to mention his daddy
“Ah! Uncle Julian, did you hear that? Momany admitted it She’s really interested in someone else’s child!”
Mason rugged at Julian’s clothes, “Uncle Julian, I might become a homeless child. Do you want me? I can be your son!”
“Mason, your mommy is just teasing you”
Julian couldn’t help but smile. His gaze remained on the road ahead. “I want you, but she’ll
never agree.”
He really liked the relationship between Anna and Mason. They could say anything to each other and were inseparable. Anna had found hope and reason to live because of Mason
Arcanopolis Restaurant, private room
Caleb rushed in almost breathless, holding some documents.
He was so excited that he stuttered, “Arthur, I found the information about that woman. She, she…”
“Straighten out your tongue before speaking.” Arthur said calmly, glancing at him.
Jeremy was resting and receiving treatment in the private room, and Caleb didn’t want to disturb his son’s treatment with his impulsive behavior.
Caleb took a deep breath, smoothed his messy hair, calmed down, and approached quietly.
“Arthur, do you still remember the Jenkins family’s young lady?
Laura?
“No! It’s the young lady who had an accident five years ago! I thought she looked familiar, and it turns out she was Dominic’s fiancée!”
He handed over the documents, murmuring in disbelief. “I saw her at Grandfather’s birthday banquet before, but not long after, she had an accident and was declared dead, right?”
“The Jenkins family hastily held her funeral, but the interesting thing is, that Jenkins family young lady didn’t die at all. She managed to avoid everyone’s surveillance and fled abroad!
“Teven found her on the list of participants in the Essence Design Competition!”
“Arthur, do you think she’s human or a ghost? Or maybe she’s come specifically for revenge?” Caleh was in shock
“What about her i oversens activities?” Arthur furrowed his brows.
“Her overseas activities. the timeline is too short: I haven’t had a chance to investigate thoroughly. But one thing’s for sure, she returned from abroad and didn’t have the tune or opportunity to deliberately get close to our Little Jeremy!”
Suddenly, Anna appeared. It might not have been planned, but it couldn’t be ruled out entirely!
After all, there were many people who wanted to get close to Arthur for various reasons.
Moreover, the person who could make Jeremy call her “on‘ mist be extraordinary!
“You’ve been investigating for so long, and you still haven’t clarified her overseas rmotion
tivities?” Arthur raised an eyebrow, his calm gaze revealing
“Of course not! I also have some interesting news, I checked the restaurant’s surveillance and found her dining with a child and a man.”

revealed the name. “It’s Julian”
Larkspire City’s gens doctor, Juliant
Arthur’s narrow eyes narrowed further, and the nerves on his temples twitched. He pursed his lips in contemplation
Julian and the presumed dead Jenkins family heiress?
Heh, this situation just got really interesting
