Chapter 27 Son Found
As the day gradually brightened up, a shadowy anomaly urred from the horizon.
Meanwhile, Nicole was supporting her head with both her hands, pondering. Once again, her phone
rang, but this time, it was a call from an anonymous line to her business number. Frowning, she
rejected the call as she was too disrupted to talk about work. However, it only took a few seconds for
the unknown person to call her once more. After pausing for a while, she picked it up.
“Nicole.” As soon as she answered the call, she was greeted by a gruff, gratifying voice. With that, she
already knew who the caller was. It was none other than her biological father, William Anderson!
With an antagonistic tone, she coldly blurted, “What?”
Despite her apathetic utterance, William remained amicable as he chucklingly said, “Nicole, I’ve
prepared the things you wanted to retrievest time. Why don’t youe and take it if you have the
time now?”

Recognizing how his speaking attitude contrastingly variedpared to thest time they spoke,
Nicole could easily tell what was happening even with half her brain gone. She subconsciously
revealed a sarcastic grin.
The only reason William’s attitude would change so radically was indubitably the result of Queenie
telling him about her identity as Lisa, and him trying to please her right now was proof enough. Indeed,
she wanted to retrieve her mother’s belongings, but the current circumstances wouldn’t allow her to.
Rolling her eyes, she answered, “Not now.”
Fearing that Nicole might hang up, William quickly continued, “My grandson’s here too. He’s been
ying around for the entire night. If you have the time,e and fetch him home. I’m getting old. I
don’t think I can keep up with him.”
Hearing that, she was dumbfounded. The iciness in her eyes instantaneously turned into shock as her
lips trembled. “Hayden’s with you?”
“Yeah. What an adorable child,” heughingly said.
“I’lle over right now.” Without saying more, she swiftly hung up and dragged Zachary up from the
couch.
At her nervous look, he curiously asked, “What happened?”
“Hayden’s at Anderson Residence. Come with me,” she speedily exined as her heart rapidly
thumped. Hayden’s safe! Although there was no telling whether William’s words were true, she at least
found a new direction to go.
“He’s with your father?” Zachary skeptically questioned. Having been in F&M Apparel for so many
years, he had never heard Nicole talk about her family. The only thing he knew about her family was
her deceased mother, which was stated in her resume, while information about her father was left
nk.
“Yes.” She lowered her gaze, and she was visibly trying to be patient.
In response, Zachary knowingly nodded before grabbing his coat on the couch and draping it around
her shoulder. “Let’s go. I’ll send you.”
Swiftly, Nicole got into Zachary’s car, a silver Maybach, and as soon as she told him the address, he
immediately drove off.
Having reached the gates of Anderson Residence, Nicole hastily alighted, while Zachary, worried about
her, parked his car and quickly followed after. She charged through the doors into the well-lit living
room, where four individuals were sitting on the couch, including her son who was sitting in the middle.
“Hayden!” Nicole dashed to him and hugged him, holding him tightly in her arms.
Seeing his mother, Hayden immediately wailed out loud. “Mom!” No matter how mature and well-
behaved he was, the abduction had certainly shocked him. He spent the entire day being uptight, and it
wasn’t until he met Nicole that he started to cry at the top of his lungs.
Looking at her son snuggling in her embrace, Nicole bitterly caressed his silky hair, relieved that her
son was intact. She continuouslyforted her son as she whispered into his ear, “You have nothing
to worry anymore, Hayden. Mom’s here.”
There was a trace of redness on Hayden’s milky cheeks, which seemed to be the doing of the chilly
sea winds. After all, how could a child’s frail skin withstand the torment of the sea winds?
