Elliot could hear every word they said, and, after a good night's sleep the night before, an idea had popped into his head.He strode into the dining room and said, "If you are saying that the baby looks like me, could it be that he really belongs to our family?"Avery instantly narrowed her eyes."Dad, what is wrong with you?!" Layla's heart raced."Don't get upset just yet! I can't tell how the baby looks like me, but if you two agree on it, then it has to be true. People can't just send babies here without a reason, so... There's a high chance that the baby belongs to us! But!" Elliot paused and said, "He is not mine."Hayden, Avery, and Layla fell into silence."Hayden and Robert both look like me... Could it be that the baby's father is one of them?" Elliot was impressed by his own sharp mind.He knew his actions so he was certain that the baby was not his. However, if the baby belonged to his family, then the father could only be Robert or Hayden.Hayden, Avery, and Layla

"Could it be that you aren't a virgin?" Layla asked. "You've been to so many parties where you drink. You can't really hold your liquor, so could one of your female friends have taken advantage of you when you were drunk?""Ah! Stop it, Layla! I'm getting chills! We are all decent people so you are overthinking! That's illegal, and none of them would dare to do such a thing!""You are too naive, or, to put it simply, you are a little slow. You don't know how evil people can be because our parents have protected you well. It's a complicated world out there, and a university is a miniature planet of its own."Feeling devastated, Robert said, "I'm begging you to stop, Layla. I will get a paternity test done, all right?""Don't be too pessimistic. Our parents are quite happy about it. Even if the baby is yours, our parents will raise him so don't worry," Layla said gently.Robert felt extremely depressed as he was not worried if his parents would be upset with him; what troubled him w

"Um... the staff member here in the customer service department all look rather ordinary. We don't have anyone who looks exceptionally hideous or beautiful," the manager muttered. "Mr. Tate, all other information on employees who have left the company has been deleted as we have a high turnover rate. Why don't I try asking around to see if there is someone who remembers who entered your room that night.""Do it now," Hayden said sternly.His tone alerted the manager.Everyone knew that Hayden’s company was based in Bridgedale, yet he had traveled all the way here to ask the manager about something that had happened ten months ago, so the manager instantly concluded that the staff Hayden was looking for must have done something wrong.The manager asked the question on the hotel employee chatgroup and showed Hayden the screen of his phone. "Mr. Tate, I've asked everyone."Hayden glanced at it and asked, "Is it possible to go through the surveillance footage from ten months ago?""T

"I was a victim as well, alright?" Avery sat down next to him and rubbed the baby's hand. "Your family was the one who forced me into carrying a lab-grown baby.""Fine! You were a victim as well.""Forget it. It's in the past." She changed the subject and said, "We will need to hire a nanny.""Can't we take care of the baby ourselves?" Elliot did not think that their caring for the baby would be a problem as they had servants in the house. "It's tiring to take care of the baby at night. We aren't young anymore, so if we stay up all night, we are going to be useless during the day." Avery knew that Elliot was far too excited to be a grandfather that he forgot how exhausting it could be waking up at night to care for the baby. "Let's hire a babysitter instead! Find someone younger and energetic."Elliot nodded. "Sure. We can try sleeping with the baby tonight, though.""Alright! We can try."An hour later, Hayden returned home and found his family sitting in the living room with

"Hayden, do you know this woman?" Layla could sense that Hayden had feelings for this woman. "You don't have her contact, so that means you aren't really close to her, right?""I don't know her, but I know what I'm doing," he said. "I will get to the bottom of this.""As you should, but be careful not to get fooled. She might be after your heart or your money.""Do I look like a fool to you?""You don't, but people would occasionally tend to lose touch with these things from time to time. Your wit abandons you when you are in love," Layla said. "Back when I said that I wanted to marry Eric, you all thought that I'd gone mad.""I didn't think it was a foolish choice," Hayden commented. "At least Eric won't take advantage of you in any way.""Duh! I've managed to keep a leveled head, but you might not! After all, I married someone I've known since I was a kid, and you don't even know the mother of your child.""That's enough." Hayden's head was pounding. "Are you not going home to
