Such questions are just to make sure.”There was a crease on Kalix’s forehead, but his eyes focused on her were clearly serious.With embarrassment, Chloe explained her intention and reason for asking that embarrassing question.“I was actually considering working in your company, that’s why I asked to ensure I could work honestly.”Kalix’s expression remained flat, but his eyes hinted at a slight displeasure. He wondered if his reputation was that bad outside.Realizing she had offended Kalix, Chloe clarified, “Hey, I’m not accusing anyone of cheating or anything, just that there are some chiefs like that, right?”“I know,” Kalix replied indifferently, Chloe’s words having no impact.Shifting the conversation, Kalix entered job interview mode, asking, “What’s your best

Before the blow could touch Kalix's face, it automatically stopped in front of him.Eugene grabbed Kalix's shirt collar, staring at him angrily, her voice cold as she said, "Is it because I said I refuse to celebrate the new year with you, so you went looking for that woman, huh? Is your desire so unsatisfied? If I knew this would happen, I shouldn't have pretended and tried to surprise you!"Kalix held Eugene's hands and leaned in to kiss the angry pout on his lover's face.Before coming here, Eugene was already very angry.

Finally, she pretended to pat her son on the shoulder to make him feel comfortable, ‘It’s okay, there’s a cure for the illness. Don’t burden yourself psychologically too much, it’s okay to take things slowly.’“Mom, I’m fine. Don’t worry.” Kalix leaned comfortably but asked the system to hack into Carlos’s computer.“Yes, medical treatment has advanced a lot now, the disease can be easily cured. If there’s no hope domestically, we can go abroad.”Kalix observed the system’s progress in his mind, copying some important documents owned by Carlos. While doing so, he replied to his mother without lifting his head, “Mom, I’m healed. That’s a medical record from a few years ago, but it didn’t touch that woman at all. I’m not guilty.”Grace stared at her son seriously and then realized the display

Revenge of the Abandoned Son 82. Eve's Interview
Martin's words alerted the three people in the dining room. Grace was the first to notice Snyder's arrival. She placed the dessert on the dining table and approached Snyder."You've come at the right time. Let's eat together," Grace said happily. Then, she glanced at Martin, still standing there with a puzzled expression, his smile fading."Why are you still standing there? Should I call security?" Kalix smirked. He knew his mother wouldn't be harsh in ejecting Martin, not due to family ties, but because that's her nature.Martin snapped back to reality, nodded to Snyder, then pushed open the front door to see the black luxury car parked with a few guards.

This garnered much sympathy for Eve and her sister, with only a few condemning Kalix as a villain despite being innocent.Observing these comments, Kalix displayed a smile that wasn't genuine. Yet, he was too lazy to condemn the behavior of those strangers.When Kalix's interview was broadcasted, he didn't speak gently or act kindly. He revealed everything that needed to be exposed."Was that the last resort? What kind of logic is that?" Kalix showed a disgusted expression in the interview video. "Does that woman have no choice but to ruin my life? Does she have to instruct two men to assault another woman? The world has so many unfortunate people, must they all go around killing others? If so, why does society still need laws?"In the interview, Kalix spread loan receipts under the camera."When her sister fell ill, I willingly lent her money. However, since that day, she

"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.

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?"

"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."

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.

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.
