Revenge of the Abandoned Son 129. A lovers' quarrel
Kalix stood on the balcony of his room that overlooked the interior of the house. Together with her nanny, Grace took a leisurely stroll in the courtyard that morning, while Kalix looked at them intently to make sure everything was okay before he re-entered his room and sat down in front of his computer.It was the weekend, so he didn't need to take a job there, not to mention he had made the decision to step down from State-of-the-Art and take a position at Owen Financial Holdings."What are you going to do now?" the system's voice appeared in his mind, once again startling him. As the system spoke, he was seriously thinking about something. Dominic's family was in turmoil. Not only had Jaxson been devastated, but Mason's reputation was also getting worse. However, until now, there had been no major moves made by Jayden, which made Kalix unable to calm down. Although the current Jayden was still younger than the Jayden of old had begun to emerge as the scheming brain of the Domin
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 130. "Talking to Kalix?"
More and more articles coming out involving the Dominic family made Julie increasingly frustrated. This time what Jaxson did really had a negative impact on the Dominic family. Surprisingly, Kalix didn't immediately address the issue directly like the Carlos case, but chose to linger, as if slowly but fatally in the end. Julie held her phone anxiously, then heard the voice of a female operator saying that the number she was calling didn't reject her call. This was the umpteenth time her calls had been rejected by the other party, making her very angry. She threw the phone to her secretary. "Damn, why are they so hard to reach?!" she exclaimed while slamming her desk. One problem wasn't even solved yet, and another arose. Not only did she have to deal with Jaxson, but her company also faced several issues. Even if she was very skilled, she had limitations when facing continuous problems. The door to the room opened from the outside, and Mason's figure appeared in Julie's field of vi
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 131. Persuading Grace
This was within Kalix's expectations, so he wasn't surprised to receive a phone call from Julie. He could guess what the woman wanted, but it didn't mean Kalix's guess was entirely correct given Julie's anger moments ago.Kalix chuckled mockingly, then responded casually, "The flag of war? I thought your son did that first and now he has to raise the white flag before it's too late."The meaning of Kalix's words was clear, he was asking Jaxson to surrender and undoubtedly begging for forgiveness. However, Julie had a high sense of pride, she was the only daughter of the Dominic family, and she had successfully built her career to this level of success. Who dared to underestimate her? No one but Kalix!With a disgusted snort and boiling anger, Julie exclaimed, "You're so arrogant. I will ruin your life. Oh no, I will also ruin your mother's life. I will not stay silent about everything you've done to my son and my family!"Julie continued to berate Kalix and Grace, forgetting her initi
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 132. Agreeing to Move
Persuading Grace to move to the capital was not easy for Kalix, as he presented various reasons for his relocation plan. He also expressed his concerns, although not explicitly. Kalix had already shown enough that he worried about his mother.Grace certainly realized this, she sighed deeply, saying nothing more. She put down her utensils, drank some water, and wiped her lips before getting up to leave after saying goodnight.Leaving Kalix and Eugene staring at each other in helplessness.Eugene nodded gently and reassured, "Don't rush too much. We'll try to convince her again tomorrow."Kalix nodded and then said softly to the woman, "Thank you.""For what?" Eugene lightly pinched Kalix's waist, making the atmosphere calmer than before.The next morning, Kalix still wanted to persuade his mother to move, but he abandoned his intention when he saw his mother already dressed neatly and being escorted by Eugene."Where are you going?" Kalix asked confusedly."To the cemetery, didn't mom
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 133. Stop Seeking Revenge
Several times her calls were rejected, Julie felt anger in her heart, but this time, she mustn't act recklessly as before even though she really wanted to slam her phone again. She forced herself to remain calm, took a deep breath, and wanted to try contacting Kalix's number once more.However, someone interrupted and called out, "Julie."Julie turned around, she saw Mason standing at the doorway with his arms folded across his chest. The man, though no longer young, still retained traces of his handsomeness and flamboyant youth, and his mature demeanor was actually his main charm. Julie sighed inwardly about Mason, but she still couldn't entirely blame the man.She knew the fact that she couldn't let go of Mason even though she occasionally despised him."What?" Julie asked curtly.Mason didn't move, in his place, he stared straight into Julie's eyes and asked, "You, do you know about my plan to run for governor of the capital city?""I know, so what?" Julie replied, staring at her h
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 134. Family Dinner
From morning until evening, Grace had a busy day. She went to the market to buy fresh ingredients for tonight's dinner, to the supermarket, and busied herself cooking dinner from noon until evening.Meanwhile, on Kalix's first day officially working at Owen Financial Holdings, he had to come home early to help his mother and remind her not to overwork herself.As previously discussed, Celeste and Snyder's family would come over to their house for dinner tonight. So Grace's busyness had a specific meaning, especially since she didn't want to disappoint her future in-laws."Mom, don't tire yourself too much, let others take care of the rest, you should get ready before 5 p.m.," Kalix said as he appeared in the kitchen to check on his mother.Grace snorted but didn't immediately stop what she was doing. Instead, she replied, "You just arrived, you should rest for a bit and freshen up. I'll take care of myself later."Hearing the expected response, Kalix could only sigh resignedly. He rem

Revenge of the Abandoned Son 135. The Gap between Mason and Julie
Suddenly getting angry without reason and then calming herself down, it had become common for Julie in the past few days. Mason also grew accustomed to it and could only tolerate it because he knew the extent of the difficulties Julie faced.Not only did they have to deal with the problems caused by Jaxson, but they also had to manage a company facing a series of issues. Their colleagues at TX Corporation, for some reason, were very difficult to ask for help. Mason also felt somewhat powerless as his old acquaintances were reluctant to assist him in handling Jaxson's problems for various reasons.Mason sighed deeply, feeling exhausted.Julie set aside her momentary anger and spoke to Mason again, saying, "Jaxson's trial will be held in three days.""Mm," Mason replied briefly, taking steps into the room and adding, "But I won't be able to attend."Julie's eyes widened in surprise, spontaneously glancing at Mason and noticing the calmness amidst his exhaustion. However, at this moment,

"Aunt," Lucas called out after finishing hugging his mother."Aunt is the one who saved me, Mom," he continued to explain.Eugene recognized that face. The person called aunt by her child was Jane, who suddenly disappeared seven years ago. It would be a lie if Eugene said she wasn't surprised, but her surprise wasn't something negative. She just didn't expect to meet that woman again after so long, even in such an unexpected situation.Meanwhile, Kalix was still stunned by what he saw. Lucas came with someone else, instead of the police who were tasked with finding his son. For a moment, he was almost speechless, until Jane herself greeted first."What an incredibly extraordinary coincidence, isn't it?" Jane smiled until her eyes narrowed. "I found the child on the south beach. I didn't expect him to be your son.""Yes. I was very surprised and of course, very grateful for helping Lucas meet us." Kalix smiled sincerely.Eugene also thanked Jane, but she couldn't help but scold Lucas i

"Lucas! Be careful!" The shout came from Eugene. Watching her son continue to run around in the middle of the grass field in front of their house sometimes made Eugene feel like she was on the verge of a sudden heart attack. How could she not? Her five-year-old son was very active and almost never wanted to sit still for more than a minute. Eugene could only laugh as she watched Lucas proudly show off his catch, a small insect-shaped ball with black and reddish-orange patterns. "Are you happy to get it?" his mother asked, answered by her son's enthusiastic nod. A blade of grass fell from Lucas's head. Five years had passed, and Eugene had proven herself capable of fulfilling her duties as a mother. Lucas was active and intelligent, inheriting his good looks from Kalix, but his personality, no one knew where he got it from. "Lucas," called Kalix, who had just come out of the house. He was carrying a cup of tea to give to his beloved wife. "Can't you go a day without making yo

Before Hannah contacted Kalix's number, she found her friend's phone ringing, only to discover it was from Eugene's mother-in-law. At first, she hesitated to tell the truth, fearing it might shock the middle-aged woman. However, following Mia's advice, she eventually broke the news cautiously. Then, news came from the doctor who checked Eugene's condition, and yes, the pregnancy news made everyone who heard it feel happy. Eugene felt incredulous at first, but then she felt happy. Meanwhile, Kalix was still trying to digest his wife's words. His breathing gradually calmed, but his eyes couldn't lie. "Oh, what did you say earlier?" Eugene glanced at Kalix to reassure him and laughed before answering, "I'm pregnant, Kalix. Pregnant with your child." After seeing her husband's expression, she chuckled softly—feeling amused by what she was seeing now. "You didn't expect that, did you?" At that moment, Kalix felt the heat of his anxiety dissipating, replaced by a happiness that was eve

"Eugene, are you alright?" Kalix's worried expression couldn't be hidden when he saw his wife looking pale. Eugene smiled gently. Actually, her stomach was quite upset in the morning, perhaps due to indigestion or eating something wrong. She emerged from the bathroom after vomiting her breakfast this morning. "I think I'm fine," Eugene said casually. "Shouldn't we go to the doctor just in case? I'll take you right now," Kalix suggested. Seeing how caring her husband was, her heart felt warm, but she had to refuse, "I'm okay. Besides, I already have plans with my friends today." Kalix sighed deeply, his gaze shifting to his wife's stomach. "I don't mean to stop you, but how can you go out on an empty stomach? You just vomited all your food." Actually, Eugene didn't feel very hungry, but considering the effort the man had put into preparing breakfast this morning, she felt guilty. "I'll try to eat again." It seemed Kalix didn't quite agree with Eugene's words. However, he also fel
170. End and Beginning
All Kalix could see was darkness. He did not know where he was or what time it was. His mind was filled with the bloody figure of Eugene. He felt pain in his heart, regret, anger, and all sorts of emotions raging inside him one by one, making him increasingly despondent. Squatting down and hugging his knees, Kalix did not know how to release the emotions in his heart.He could not laugh, could not get angry, could not do anything. It's as if his body was made to remain silent.In that boundless darkness, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed."Hello, Host Kalix Owen!"Hearing that, Kalix immediately looked up. He remembered, there was a system that could help him, a chance for him to fix everything. Yes, he remembered, he had called upon the system, awakened the system that could assist him."System! System, are you there?!" Kalix searched around in the darkness hoping he would find the system he was looking for.In despair, he suddenly found hope.The mechanical voice of the system echo

A 5-year-old boy sat on his bed, gazing at the snowflakes falling from the sky behind his bedroom window. The yard was blanketed in pure white, looking incredibly beautiful despite the cold air accompanying it.Eugene entered the room, the place where children under 5 years old from the orphanage slept."Lucas, what do you see?" Eugene asked gently as she approached the only child there.The little boy, Lucas, turned around, seeing the pretty sister who often came to take care of him and his friends in the same room."There's snow, it's beautiful," Lucas said with a sparkle in his eyes. However, realizing he could not touch the snow, the sparkle in his eyes faded.Lucas had been in poor health since he was little, which is why his movements in the orphanage were very limited.Eugene held the boy's chin, smiling softly, and then said, "Do you want to go out?"Of course, the child nodded in agreement, he really wanted to leave his room to see the snow like the other children, even if he

From the look in her eyes, there was no disgust, but rather guilt and regret.

After nearly 2 hours of shopping, they decided to find a place to eat outside the shopping center. On both sides of the shopping building, there were many eateries.Based on internet recommendations, they decided to visit one of the restaurants nearby. As they walked towards the restaurant, Eugene suddenly remembered something."It seems like I accidentally left my watch in the watch store when I was trying on a new one earlier," Eugene said while lightly tapping her forehead."I'll go back to the store, you just wait for me at the restaurant, okay?""Okay." Eugene nodded and watched Kalix walk back towards the shopping center. Meanwhile, she stood still there and waited for Kalix instead of going into the restaurant.Kalix knew Eugene would wait for him outside the restaurant or even follow him, so he quickly walked back to the shopping center. Fortunately, the streets weren't too crowded with pedestrians at that time.After retrieving the watch from the store's employee, he exited t
