Chapter 179
Chapter 179 Anna’s Misunderstanding
Immediately, Anna saw the two people seated at the dining table, and when she got closer, she
realized that Colton was holding a child in his arms. Fixing her eyes on them, she froze on the spot.
That child Colton is holding looks exactly like him when he was a kid. There’s no mistake about it!
Stunned for a few seconds, she finally asked shakily, “When did you have a son?”
All these years, there had been no woman by Colton’s side, and there was only Queenie at the most,
but he had never touched her. Worried for him, Anna had introduced manydies of respectable
families or women from clean backgrounds to him, but he turned all of them away without any interest.
She had thought that she wouldn’t have a grandchild, but unexpectedly, she discovered such a huge
surprise when she came over today.
That child was even wearing pink pajamas while holding a sandwich in his hands, looking so adorable
that her heart almost melted.
A look of delight washed over Anna’s face. Actually, she was here today to discuss Wendy’s birthday
with Colton, but she had bumped into such a big secret instead.
I’ve always wondered why there has never been a woman by Colton’s side. So it turns out that he
already has a lover, who has even given birth to my grandchild in secret!
Seeing the delight on his mother’s face, Colton could guess what was on her mind, and he hurriedly
interjected, worried that she would have the wrong idea. “Mom, don’t let your thoughts run wild. This is
Nicole’s son.”
Right after the words left his lips, Anna smiled warmly and nodded. “I know, I know. No wonder you
insist on standing on her side; it’s because you have this rtionship with her.” She covered her mouth,
but her smile remained, and she discreetly straightened her face, turning to Colton. “I’m not such a
conservative person, and I don’t mind as long as you love her. There’spletely no reason for you to
hide this from me.”
Sensing that his mother had gone too far with her misunderstanding, Colton was about to exin when
Hayden, who was exceptionally talented at reading the situation, called out to Anna, “Grandma.”
The baby voice paired with his innocent and adorable face made Anna chuckle happily, and she paced
forward. “Oh, my dear grandson. You’re such a good kid.”
Anxiously, Nicole looked at Hayden and chided, “Hayden, don’t simply just call anyone that!”
However, Anna’s brows furrowed slightly when she heard Nicole, and she asked in a displeased
manner, “What do you mean? Am I not fit to be this child’s grandmother?”
Stumped by her reply, Nicole hurriedly exined after a few seconds, “It’s not like that, Mrs. Gardner. I
don’t mean it that way. It’s just that he’s not President Gardner’s son, but mine.”
Anna nced at Hayden before looking at the two adults in front of her. “Did Colton let you down?” she
asked suddenly.

“Huh?” Nicole blurted out, unable to react to the situation, but when she did, she hurriedly shook her
head. “No, he didn’t.”
Before Nicole could continue, Anna interjected, “If Colton let you down, you can tell me and I’ll teach
him a lesson. Anyhow, you should let your child acknowledge his roots.”
Nicole was caught speechless by her words, and all the exnation she had was stuck in her throat.
Meanwhile, Anna had already taken a liking to Hayden, who looked exactly like Colton when he was
little. With a wide smile, she added, “I understand it. You don’t have to exin anymore. Colton must
have let you down in the past; that’s why it turned out like this. Whateverpensation you ask for, as
long as it’s reasonable, the Gardners will fulfill all of your requests.” At the end, she evenmented,
“Colton had never allowed anyone else into his house, and he even disliked it when his sister came.
Are you telling me there’s nothing between the two of you when he actually allowed you to stay?”
At this point, Nicole felt that there were no words she could use to rify the situation anymore.
