Chapter 2 Daddy, I'm Your Son

• The atmosphere at the scene suddenly froze as everyone's gaze converged on Hesperus.
• To them, this handsome and adorable little boy did bear a resemblance to the Ryker family members.
• He might really be the child of one of the sons of the Ryker family.
• Oscar had three grandsons. They wondered who this child could be.
• It certainly couldn't be Abel's, as he had been abroad for years.
• It was probably the second son, Adrien Ryker. The entire Struyria knew about his romantic escapades.
• "Emmeline, get out of here!" Alana's face turned dark. "Don't bring some random b*stard here and dream of climbing the social ladder. Do you think the Ryker family doesn't know what kind of person you are? Do you think Mr. Abel would let a woman like you bear his child?"
• Despite her harsh words, Alana was panicking inside.
• She knew very well what happened five years ago.
• She had drugged Abel during one of his brief returns to the country, fully prepared to spend the night with him and thus enter the Ryker family legitimately.
• She never predicted that Abel would go to the wrong room and end up in Emmeline's room, benefitting her.
• If not for stealing Emmeline's son through Alondra, she wouldn't be posing as Abel's fiancee now.
• She could not allow anyone from the Ryker family, especially Abel, to see Emmeline and her child.
• "This is what Abel gave me." Emmeline took out a bank card. "The cardholder is Abel. It can't be wrong, right?"
• "Where did you pick this up from? Do you believe in a discarded card?" Alana snatched the card and snapped it in half, throwing it into the trash.
• Emmeline was momentarily stunned. It was the only thing that man left behind.
• Without thinking, she slapped Alana.
• "How dare you hit me? Someone, throw this mad woman and this b*stard child out!" Alana screamed while clutching her face.
• The bodyguards rushed forward. Emmeline responded with a flurry of punches and kicks.
• Alana and the ladies were dumbfounded.
• The bodyguards lay on the ground, groaning.
• Alana stared at Emmeline. Since when did she fight so well?
• As Emmeline was considering whether to continue fighting, the door to the ward opened. A dignified, clear voice came through, "Who is making such a racket outside?"
• The air froze. Alana shut her mouth while the bodyguards scrambled to their feet.
• It was Rosaline, Lewis Ryker's wife and Abel's mother.
• Oscar had two sons and three grandsons.
• Abel was the son of Lewis, Oscar's second son.
• Alana pointed at Emmeline. "Madame Ryker, this woman was causing trouble. I was just trying to calm her down."
• "That's not true." Hesperus looked up at Rosaline. He politely yet assertively said, "Young lady, I'm here to find my daddy, not to make trouble."
• Rosaline's eyes lit up as she looked down at the little boy.
• This little one did resemble her eldest grandson somewhat.
• "Who are you talking to?" she asked kindly.
• "You, of course." Hesperus glanced at Alana, then told Rosaline, "Don't believe this woman. My mommy is not a shrew; she is."
• Alana couldn't take it. "You brat, who are you referring to?"
• "Young lady, did you see that?" Hesperus pointed at Alana. "Isn't she a shrew?"
• Alana hastily covered her mouth, uneasy about her loss of composure.
• "You should call me Granny." Rosaline patted Hesperus' head. "My grandson is about your age."
• "Then I'll call you Granny. You look so kind. Maybe you are my real granny?"
• Hesperus' acting skills soared, melting Rosaline's heart.
• "Guards, throw these two out!" Alana panicked. "This brat is disturbing Madame Ryker."
• "Don't bully people." Rosaline frowned. "Just have security escort them down."
• "No need for security." Emmeline held her son's hand.
• Since Abel wasn't back yet, there was no reason to stay.
• "We can leave ourselves."
• "Mommy!" Hesperus tugged on Rosaline's clothes and waved to Emmeline. "I want to play with Granny a bit more. I'll come back by myself later."
• Emmeline was about to refuse when she saw Hesperus' big eyes blinking continuously.
• Does this kid want to be undercover? He really has skills.
• Nevertheless, she had confidence in her three sons as they were geniuses. No one could bully them.
• Hence, she left, granting Hesperus' wish.
• As she left the hospital, she received a call from her assistant. "Madam, Abel himself has contacted us. He hopes Wonder Doctor will treat Old Mr. Ryker. Will you take the job?"
• "Yes. Tell him I'll go tomorrow."
• One of Emmeline's hidden identities was the miracle Wonder Doctor. The Ryker family had sought her out many times, but she had not responded.
• Now that Abel had personally reached out, she had to show respect to him, her children's father.
• After hanging up, Emmeline got into her car to head home to her eldest son, Helios.
• However, Helios was already at the airport, waiting at the exit for the man in the photo, whom he heard was his father.
• Wearing sunglasses, Abel walked by with confidence. There were four bodyguards in front and behind.
• His powerful aura chilled the temperature of the terminal to freezing.
• "Has Wonder Doctor replied?" Abel asked coldly.
• His subordinate's respectful tone carried a hint of relief as he said, "Mr. Abel, Wonder Doctor said she will come tomorrow to treat Old Mr. Ryker."
• Upon hearing this, Abel's tense expression softened slightly.
• Oscar's illness had stumped numerous famous doctors, and Wonder Doctor was their last hope.
• Having performed countless miracles, Wonder Doctor should be able to save Oscar.
• "Daddy!"
• A crisp sound snapped Abel back to reality.
• Looking down, he saw a miniature version of himself blocking his path.
• Timothy? No, this little guy is chubbier than Timothy…
• "Kid, you are…"
• "Daddy, I'm your son." Helios' voice was clear.
