You can trust me." "Dad, Annika, what are you talking about? What son? Where did this child cfrom?" Arton was utterly confused about what was going on.
The elderly lady, who had been silent all along, looked thoughtful.
Suddenly, she spoke, "You're Ms. Chloe, aren't you? You claim this child is my son's, and while he does resemble our family, we can't just take your word for it. If he is Arton's son, Arton would know for sure. Please explain everything clearly to us. We're not foolish, but there needs to be sbasis in fact, right? "If my son feels that everything is right, then we can acknowledge that the child is his son. Otherwise, we can't just accept him without knowing if he really is a part of our family." I felt deflated when I heard what Georgina had to say. I hadn't expected her to say such things.

I saw that Arton was agitated, so I calmly said, "Mr. Arton, please take a look at the photos first, then we can discuss this further." Annika quickly handed her phone to her brother, saying earnestly, "Take a good look, Arton. Is this really your son? How could you not know about him? Don't feel pressured. If he really is yours, take him back, and I'll take care of him." It seemed that Arton heeded his sister's words. He took the phone and looked at the screen.
At that moment, what had happened earlier seemed to happen again. Arton suddenly froze, his eyes wide and fixated on the screen, unmoving.
After a moment, he looked atabruptly and asked, "Can you tellwhere he is now?" "He's my friend's place," I replied calmly.
"How old is he?" Arton asked urgently.
"He's almost a year old. He was born prematurely after seven months of pregnancy," I answered truthfully. "If you've been in contact with Melanie, you should know that she fell and gave birth prematurely right in front of the school gate. That was while she was trying to hit me." Arton's face turned pale, which implied that he had known about this..
fel? "The person who's looking after him is very kind and has taken good care of him. If you can take him back now, maybe you'll make it in tfor his birthday." I said softly. "I... Melanie..." Arton gritted his teeth, squeezing his fists tightly.

In the end, after a moment of contemplation, I decided to tell them more. "Melanie has escaped from prison. was affaid it might not be good for the child, so I wanted to send the little one back to the Reese family to ensure his safety and health.
"You know what kind of woman Melanie is. was afraid she might resort to desperate measures and use the child against us. That was why I took the liberty to cto the Reese family today and tell you about the little boy." Donovan sighed heavily, holding his head in his hands.
After a while, he looked up atand said, "Thank you so much, Ms. Chloe. We wouldn't have known that there was still a Reese family child out there if it weren't for you. This is retribution for our past actions." Then, he glanced atnervously and said, "I want to know when we can take my grandson back, Ms. Chloe." X
