Chapter 2169
“Don‘t touch me!” Harvey flinched, moving backward as he stared at Jim warily. “Are you still thinking of finding
Number–9? Are you still thinking about marrying her?
“You said you‘ll marry Mommy and be with her, but you‘re just lying to me, aren‘t you? To you, Number – 9 is the
most important person in this world–more important than me, Mommy, and Shelly. So important that you can
forget about us, isn‘t it?”
Harvey‘s heartache only grew the more he poured out his heart. “You broke Mommy‘s heart over and over again
when you thought Charlotte was Number–9, all because you loved her. All that, and you‘re still looking for her right
now! “What if you find her, then? Are you going to abandon Mommy, me, and Shelly? If that‘s the case, I‘ll go find

Harvey Craig!”
Harvey‘s gaze burned with rage as he stared at Jim, who felt helpless with the way his son was acting. He sighed
and reached out to grab Harvey‘s hand, but Harvey dodged it again.
Helpless, Jim stood up and approached Harvey to pull him into his arms.
Harvey tried to struggle. “Let go of me!”
“No.” Jim‘s lips curved into a smile as he held Harvey closer to him. “I will not let go of you and your Mommy.”
He then looked at Harvey‘s face solemnly. “Harvey, you always said that you‘re not a kid anymore. You are six
years old now, and you should know that a person must always keep his promise and see it through to the end.
Even if I can‘t be with Number–9 anymore, I just want to fulfill the promise that I made when I was just a boy. I just
want to find her, apologizing
hat I can‘t be with her anymore. That‘s all.” He continued, “Besides that, think about it. You‘re already six years old,
and maybe Aunt Number–9 is already married and has kids of her own. Even if I find her, I don‘t have to be
together with her. Am I not right?”
Nonetheless, Harvey‘s frown did not leave his face even after hearing his father‘s explanation. He sighed. “Then...”
He stuck out his pinky finger, intending to make a promise. “You have to promise me that you‘ll marry Mommy

Jim furrowed his brows when he saw how dead–set Harvey looked.
He knew that marrying Bonnie was the best choice he had. Whether it was for the sake of his parents, his children,
or his family‘s dignity, Bonnie was the best choice.
Moreover... If the old Jim truly loved Bonnie, he would not regret this decision after his memory was restored.
Nonetheless, Jim narrowed his eyes and internally questioned himself, ‘Do I truly like Bonnie now?‘
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe did not know the answer to that, either.
“Daddy?” Harvey called out, noticing that Jim did not give him any response.
It was only then Jim returned to his senses. “Alright, I promise you...”
“You don‘t have to.”
Just then, Bonnie walked down the stairs with a cold sneer. “Jim, haven‘t you learned the lesson from Number–9‘s
case? You shouldn‘t make promises hastily.”
She then walked up to Jim and passed him the phone, saying, “Gwen had just requested Luke to help with the
investigation. Charlotte is now in Quinn Mansion; she should be locked in the dungeon. Joshua and Luke are on their
way there as we speak. “Do you want to go, too?”
