Chapter 22


    Chapter 22


    In the evening. Stanley headed to Emerald Harbor in a Lamborghini.


    He was seated in the back. As the evening sunlight shohe on his facial contour, he furrowed his thick


    eyebrows. He recalled making love to Melinda seven years ago, and just several days ago, he met his


    kids for the first time.


    It was all so surreal that he fell into a daze.


    Meanwhile, the car was moving slowly since they were stuck in traffic.


    Inadvertently, he saw a father and a young boy leaving a toy store. The young boy seemed to be loving


    his new blue robot. The moment the father picked him up, the young boy beamed. His smile infected


    Stanley.


    “Stop the car,” he said to the driver. “I need to go to that toy store.”


    The driver soon pulled up beside the toy store. Before he could get out of the vehicle, he saw Stanley


    striding toward the store.


    It was a big shop with six floors full of toys.


    The instant Stanley stepped into the ce, the young and beautiful personal shopper looked at him in


    shock. “Are you Mr. Fox?!”


    “Do you still have the same blue robot that the young boy bought earlier?” Stanley asked gently.


    Despite being noble and elegant, he was distant and aloof.


    The personal shopper nodded repeatedly. “We do. I’ll get it for you right away!” She felt her heart


    pounding in her chest.


    “Do you also happen to have a pink one?” he added. “I want two of those robots.”

    “Yes.” She had seen on the news that Stanley had two kids. It never crossed her mind that a powerful


    man like him would be such a loving father.


    After the payment was made, the personal shopper passed Stanley a bouquet. “Mr. Fox, to celebrate


    our shop’s anniversary, we’re giving each customer flowers for buying two robots. You may give them


    to your wife.”


    Stanley looked at the flowers and hesitated for a while before taking them. novelxo fast update


    The moment he left the store, the reporters managed to capture photos of him holding some toys and


    flowers.


    As the sunlight shone on Emerald Harbor, it made the ce look even more magnificent.


    The Lamborghini drove into the yard and pulled up in front of the vi.


    Melinda, who was d in a blue and white suit, stood in the doorway. When she saw Stanley holding


    two robots and some roses, she was startled.


    It was only natural that he bought toys for the kids, but did he also buy flowers for her?


    Stanley walked toward her and thought that the woman’syers of clothing made her look refreshing


    and gentle.


    He admired the woman’s sense of fashion, for she always wore clothes that were appropriate for


    different asions.


    The instant he brushed past Melinda, he stuffed the roses into her arms and directly entered the living


    room.


    As Melinda caught a whiff of the fragrance, she came to her senses and followed him.


    These are presents for Samuel and Pam Stanley passed the robots to Gael. “We’ll be heading to


    Repulse Bay now Since we’ll be back soon, you can tell the cook to start preparing dinner,”


    “Yes, Mr. Fox.


    Stanley then turned around and looked at the dazed woman, who stood there with the flowers in her


    arms “Put down the flowers. We have to get going now With that, he strode toward the door.


    Melinda promptly put down the flowers on the table and followed him.


    She was seated beside the man in the Lamborghini. Since the man never said anything, the


    atmosphere was slightly awkward.


    As such, she decided to look out the window. The silencested for five minutes.


    “Who on earth are you?”


    Stanley felt that themunity leader of a poor vige like her wasn’t supposed to have such


    immacte taste in fashion.


    Melinda looked him in the eye with a calm expression. You should trust your judgment. I’m the kids‘


    mother, so there’s no way I’ll pose any threat to you.”


    As their eyes met, Stanley realized the woman appeared resolute.


    He didn’t probe any further. All the same, he would continue looking into her background.


    A momentter, Melinda said, “I didn’t expect you to be 12 years older than me.” It’s no wonder that


    he’s so sedate. “By the way, what skincare products do you use? You look younger than your age.”


    “It’s in the genes,” the man replied impassively.


    Hearing that, Melinda couldn’t help smiling. She looked out the window to take in the scenery and


    thought that the man was conceited


    Soon, the Lamborghini pulled up in front of a vi in Repulse Bay. Melinda came to her senses and got


    out of


    the vehicle with him.


    Much to her surprise, Stanley took her hand and entered the living room.


    Will he protect me from his mother today?


    Jennifer was seated on the couch with her entire body covered and a delicate half–mask on her face.


    Although Melinda couldn’t tell what was on the older woman’s mind, she found the atmosphere in the


    living room depressing.


    It was apparent to her that Jennifer was displeased.


    “I only wanted to see her. Why did youe as well? Fine. I’ll give the two of you three days to get


    divorced.” Jennifer cut to the chase and stared at Melinda. “Regardless of how well–dressed you are, it


    can’t change the fact that you’re just a country bumpkin. You said the two of you have been secretly


    married for seven years. You might be able to lie to the media, but you can’t fool me.”
