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. The sight reinforced his belief in Snyder's identity.What's the connection between Kalix, Grace, and Snyder Mananov? Did the Mananov family provide assistance to Kalix? Will they seek revenge against him and Carlos?Thought after thought swirled in Martin's mind. He quickly took out his phone and called Carlos.To the outside world
Revenge of the Abandoned Son 83. Mutual Biting
Kalix also underwent an interview with the same television station. However, his interview was aired a day later. 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

Eve's eyes widened, understanding the hidden threat behind Carlos's gentle words. She stared blankly at him for several minutes, then gripped her face, silently crying. Until now, she hadn't realized the depth of Carlos's plan. From the beginning, Eve had never personally intervened in this affair, she cleverly offered advice and followed his words. Even if she changed her stance now, it would only jeopardize her without evidence. Eve had planned an easy way out from the start – let him take the blame. Grief welled up within Eve, her quiet sob turning into a sharp wail. Carlos sighed again, gently coaxing, "Darling, don't be afraid, this will pass quickly. Everything will be fine. Don't cry, I'll surely wait for you." "Go away! Get hell away from me!" Eve growled hoarsely. Carlos said nothing more and turned away, but he knew Eve would endure suffering for her sister. As long as her younger sister remained

Revenge of the Abandoned Son 88. Damage to ‘Magic Effects’
[Trash! Don’t play this game again!] [They’re lucky it’s still a free trial, or I’d rush to Dom& Tech headquarters to break a few damn heads!] [A small company is still a small company, quality control is not guaranteed.] [Didn’t Chief Kalix mention ‘Magic Effects’ as a flawed product? I thought he was just shameless and deliberately defaming Dom& Tech, now it seems to be the truth.] [Darn, of course, that’s true. Dom& Tech bought the ‘Magic Effects’ copyright from State-of-the-Art, so it makes sense that Chief Kalix knows exactly what this game is made of.] [Oh my, you’re right. State-of-the-Art is a big company, if the game doesn’t meet production standards, it can always be delayed. But Dom& Tech is different, spending all that money on this cow, they’d be crazy not to start milking it.] [And as usual, us players get the short end of the stick! It’s good that the issue occurred during the trial period, if it happened after the subscription, I’d be suing Dom& Tech for fraud.]

Kalix sat in his office chair, laughing contentedly as he leaned forward, staring at his laptop screen.The system in his mind transformed into a cat, instead of showing the same happiness, it only displayed its usual laziness."Tomorrow is the company's game conference, and I can't wait to see Carlos's expression. He dared to sell inferior products; I want to mock him thoroughly."The cat-headed system shook its head but didn't say anything that would diminish its happiness. It calmly said, "When two games are released, they will undoubtedly be compared to Maggic Effects; the superior one will become apparent in an instant."Under the system's warning, the enthusiastic Kalix was forced to sleep.The current State-of-the-Art was confident, hosting a grand conference for their new game. They not only invited the most famous media in the country but also spent a considerable amount to invite domestic male and female celebrities as spokespeople.Kalix and Eugene, representatives of the C

"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

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

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

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
