Chapter 18
The four arrive at the Lambert Manor in two cars, and just as Angie helped Melanie get out of the. car, they saw someone greet them warmly.
“Are you Elias” mother? Come in, please.”
Melanie thought in confusion, “Did Elias make trouble and was detained here?”
Thinking that Elias might be treated badly, Melanie got anxious and went into the manor without hesitation.
“Where’s Elias, Angie? Did he cry?”
“Didn’t you say that you were going to teach him a good lesson? Now you’re worried about him, huh? Relax, Luke is with him and he won’t allow anyone to bully him.”
As soon as they entered the living room, they heard Elias‘ happy voice.
“Mommy.”
Melanie felt a soft little object rush towards her. She bent to hold him and stroked his face.
“Are you okay, Elias? Did you get hurt?”
‘I’m fine, Mommy.”
Elias touched Melanie’s eyes and looked sad.
Soon, however, he was happy again.
“I found Daddy, Mommy. He’ll protect us from now on.”
“Sure, we’ll find your dad after you grow up. Now come back with me.”
Melanie thought Elias was still looking for his dad, so she tried to skip the topic.
Elias shouted reluctantly, “Mommy!”
“Listen, Elias. We have to go back.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Melanie took Elias’s hand/
She instinctively turned in Jennifer’s direction and said, “My son is very naughty. Sorry to have bothered you. I’m Melanie Robertson from the Rising Star and I’ll apologize to you in person next time.”
Jennifer strode over quickly and held Melanie’s hand.
“It’s you, Ms. Robertson. We met in the museum yesterday.”
She gave Roderick a smug look.
Now she had a grandson and a granddaughter–in–law.
Melanie was stunned.
She didn’t remember Jennifer’s voice at all, so she turned to Angie subconsciously.
Although she couldn’t see, she had a good sense of direction.
Angie got it immediately.
“You must be Mrs. Lambert, right? Sorry, my cousin has something wrong with her eyes today. We’ll thank you in person next time for taking care of Elias.”
“You don’t have to do that. We’re family.”
Jennifer laughed and looked up and down at Melanie, liking her even more.
“Don’t worry about your eyes, Mela. We have the best doctor and the best medical lab. I’m sure we can cure that.”
Melanie felt more and more uneasy.
She could feel that there were many people in the living room.
And everyone was staring at her attentively.
“What’s going on, Elias? What did you do?”
Angie was also confused.
However, Elias ate the lollipop and smiled like a little hamster.
“If Elias hadn’t found Roddy, I wouldn’t have known you brought such a lovely child into the Lambert family.
“Why didn’t you go home after you came back to Beloris?”
Jennifer sounded very happy.
Melanie suddenly realized something.
She thought, ‘Elias said that he had found his daddy. Can it be someone from the Lambert family?
‘No! It’s impossible!
‘I had an accident in Solustria, nót Zerivia.
“You
may
have misunderstood it, Mrs. Lambert. Elias is indeed my son, but he has nothing to do with the Lambert family.”
Melanie got rid of Jennifer’s grip.
“Sorry to have bothered you. I’ll thank you next time.

“Come home with me, Elias.”
“I found Daddy, Mommy. Roderick is my daddy.”
“You got the wrong person, Elias. He can’t be your father.”
Melanie grabbed Elias‘ hand accurately.
“You’ll find him after you grow up, but now you have to go home.”
“No! I want to stay with Daddy.”
Reluctant to leave, Elias began to cry again.
“I promise you that I’ll look for your daddy after we go back.”
Melanie comforted Elias.
“Who are you looking for?”
Suddenly, someone said in a deep voice.
At the same time, she seemed to smell a light fragrance.
She thought, ‘It’s him!
I remember the voice and the smell. I met this man in the museum!
“Why is he here?
“Wait, I’m in the Lambert Manor, so that means he’s…
Angie was also stunned when she saw the man who suddenly showed up.

“You… You’re the man we met on the plane. Are you Roderick, the son of the Lambert family?”
“Yes, he’s my son, Mela. He hugged you in the museum last time.”
Having noticed Roderick’s obsession with Melanie, Jennifer gave her a reminder.
Melanie blushed in an instant.
Angie’s eyes also widened in shock.
She thought, ‘Hug? When did that happen?‘
Elias also smiled.
“It turns out that you’ve long found Daddy. Why didn’t you tell me, Mommy?”
“I… It’s just an accident, Elias. He’s not your daddy. You got the wrong person!”
Melanie felt embarrassed.

“Then who’s his daddy?” Roderick asked again in a deep voice.
Melanie’s heart skipped a beat.
She did find him very familiar, but he couldn’t be the one who had sex with her many years ago.
Because that man was not as cold as Roderick.
He was hot like a flame and crazy like a beast.
“I…
Melanie wanted to tell him that who Elias‘ father was was none of his business!
However, before she could say anything, her arm was grabbed by him with his warm hand.
“I’ll tell you who he is.”
Melanie heard others gasp, and the next second, she was pulled away by Roderick. She couldn’t get rid of his grip. She had no choice but to follow him.
He slammed the door shut.
She felt as if she had been brought back to that night seven years ago.
She was pushed into a large and soft bed.
Before she could struggle, she felt a strong body against her.
Roderick stroked her hair and eyebrows gently with his warm hand.
Then he kissed her hard.
Melanie suddenly remembered the night seven years ago when she couldn’t get a good look at the
man who had sex with her.
