Revenge of the Abandoned Son 34. In A Good Mood
With the key in his hand and the car in front of him, it’s rare for Kalix to display a helpless expression. He turns his face to the side, observing Snyder, who looks like a wealthy young master with no bright future, useless, and only knows how to spend his parents’ money.It’s a stark contrast to when they spoke privately a few moments ago.“What else? I gave you that car as a friendship gift, go and try it.”Kalix says nothing, remaining silent and staring at Snyder.“Oh, I see. You can’t drive the car. Then I’ll teach you.”“I can,” Kalix responds. “But I don’t know the roads around here.”Snyder nods understandingly. “Okay, let’s go. I’ll accompany you.”Inside the car, it’s just the two of them, so Snyder sheds the useless character of the second-generation rich. He asks Kalix, “You’re smart in investments, why bother playing around in university?”Ignoring the fact that his intelligence and accuracy in investments actually come from experiences in a previous life, Kalix answers
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 35. Dinner with Eugene's Mother
The table reserved by Susan, Eugene’s mother, was by the window overlooking the parking area. As many people would join for dinner, she booked a relatively large table. Julie and Jaxson accompanied her, along with Eugene’s cousin, Sophie.When Kalix’s car entered the restaurant area, Sophie was the first to notice. Being a high school student, she was enthusiastic about nice and expensive things due to her peer influence. Her mouth filled with praise, “Wow, that’s a limited edition car, right?”Susan and Julie turned to where Sophie pointed, expressing their admiration. On the other side, Jaxson was busy with his phone, seemingly uninterested.As Kalix stepped out, Sophie complimented his looks. When Kalix assisted the passenger door, Sophie praised his politeness. Until the woman in the passenger seat emerged, and her face became visible to them.Sophie widened her eyes before showing her excitement. She exclaimed, “That’s Eugene, isn’t it? She came with her friend.”Susan and Julie
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 36. Awkwardness
“I don’t care whether he’s alive or not, I just know I have only my mother in my life.” As soon as Kalix uttered those words, he noticed Mason’s presence a few steps away from their table. Mason, having heard Kalix’s words to some extent, furrowed his rare brows, but the emotion quickly vanished as he approached everyone. Initially coming to pick up his wife and child while joining the dinner, Mason intentionally arrived late because Mr. Celeste wasn’t with them. However, what he didn’t expect was that his ‘beloved’ son, whom he had forgotten, was also here, sitting at the same table with his wife and child. Mason felt a bit uneasy, but his accustomed poker face showed no signs of being affected. He calmly greeted those present. Kalix had been aware of Mason’s presence from the system alert, so he deliberately added his words, though he knew it wouldn’t greatly affect Mason’s mood. Seeing Mason, Kalix smiled thinly with a hint of mockery in his eyes. Ignoring that, Mason turned to J
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 37. Rumor

Most importantly, during their brief relationship, Kalix provided her with a feeling that no other man could offer.So when she stumbled upon a post in the campus forum discussing the relationship between Kalix and Eugene, she became very angry. Impulsively, she confronted Kalix.“Why is it not there? Our relationship....” Jane fell silent.Right, they had already broken up. What other reason could she use?“Our relationship ended a long time ago,” Kalix said coldly. He shifted his attention away, ignoring Jane.Seeing his attitude, so different from before, made Jane very uncomfortable.In the initial conflicts between them, she tried to persuade Kalix with some actions, like secretly giving him food, but he repeatedly rejected her by discarding the food she offered.Then, in anger, Jane ignored him, thinking that Kalix would regret brea
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 38. The Peak of Turmoil
The commotion in the student forum intensifies as someone discreetly captures a photo of Jane waiting alone at the café until evening. Many students feel pity for her, defending her due to her sincerity toward Kalix, although Kalix remains indifferent. On the flip side, Eugene faces blame for maliciously stealing another woman's lover. In this peak of opinions, Jane emerges as a protagonist supported by many, casting Eugene and Kalix as villains, with Jaxson as the male lead. That night, Kalix laughs while reading a post but accidentally likes a comment suggesting Jane and Jaxson are a perfect match. Despite retracting the 'like,' someone screenshots it, reposts, and opens the comments for discussion. Unexpectedly, Jane responds with a lengthy post. [Friends, this isn't Kalix's fault. It's me who couldn't keep him with me, allowing someone else to take him. I've pondered why Kalix broke up with me four months ago, even refusing all my gifts. Only recently did I realize that perha
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 39. Kalix vs. Jaxson
Witnessing the shift in the forum's direction, even before he had a chance to express his concern to Eugene, infuriated Jaxson. "Kalix again," he muttered through gritted teeth. Currently in his car on the way to campus, he saw no need to conceal his anger.In the past few days, Jaxson had grown tired of hearing the name Kalix. Whether it was his parents' arguments, his mother's confessions, or Eugene's involvement, the name Kalix seemed to mark the end of his patience. He truly despised both the name and the person.Upon arriving at campus, Jaxson overheard some people discussing Kalix. Despite remaining a favorite among many students, he was dissatisfied with Kalix's newfound title.Why? Because Kalix had suddenly become a polite man, showing respect to women and avoiding exposing Jane's affair from the beginning. He also refrained from discussing the woman much when showing the video.Jaxson wanted to ignore Kalix, but everyone around him kept mentioning that name. Unconsciously,
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 40. Nick
The next morning, Kalix woke up with a familiar headache. He found himself in his room, still in last night’s clothes. Holding his very dry throat, Kalix forced himself to stand.In the living room, he saw Nick lying on the sofa. With a somewhat confused mind, he tried to remember what happened last night, it seemed they both talked so much that Kalix couldn’t recall anything.“You’re awake...” Nick’s raspy voice greeted him as he squinted at Kalix. Kalix mumbled lightly in response, “Do you want some warm water?”Nick nodded before getting up to wash his face. It was almost 11 a.m. when they fully realized and freshened up.“Aren’t you going to class?” Nick asked. “I have a morning class. What about you? Want to wait here or go for a walk alone?”Nick thought for a moment and replied, “I don’t want to stay here alone, and I don’t know much about the capital, so I don’t want to wander alone.”“So, do you want to come to my campus?”Nick chuckled lightly, conveying a meaning understood
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 41. Preparation
One week passed quickly. After having enough fun and discussing their business plans, Nick decided to return to his hometown first and better prepare himself. On the other hand, Kalix became busier preparing for the semester exams and the upcoming software engineering competition. The semester exams were scheduled for the next week, and a month later, the software engineering competition would take place. This meant they would participate in the competition just a day after returning to school. So, their time was quite tight. Those who originally came from outside the capital couldn't even go home for a vacation but spent their time on training. "Mom, I can't come home this holiday," Kalix said over the phone with Grace. Shortly after, a gentle voice from the other side was heard in Kalix's ear, calming him down. "It's okay. I know you're very busy. Instead of spending time on the journey, it's better to use that time to rest." "Mm. I'm sorry, I can't accompany you on the holid

"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

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

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

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
