Chapter 671


    "Don''t call?" Vera put away the phone. "What about Beanie? Maddox, he..."


    "It''s fine：''


    Minerva smiled. "It''s fine if he took him away. He just found out about this and he needs time to


    digest the truth. Besides... Beanie isn''t stupid. Anyway, he''s Beanie''s biological father. He won''t


    harm him."


    Vera had nothing else to say when she heard what Minerva said and she could only nod her head.


    "Okay, as long as you''ve made up your mind."


    "Go to sleep and don''te out again."


    "Alright good night."


    Vera walked back to her room with her phone in hand. After a few steps, she heard Minerva''s voice


    echoing behind her.


    "Remember, you can''t secretly tell Quill about this. I know that you are looking out for me, but... You


    don''t need to have to tell him everything about me."


    Hearing this, Vera''s body stiffened for a moment and then she nodded.


    "Alright!


    Maddox drove his car out and Beanie was in the passenger seat. His voice was soft.


    "Sir, where are you taking me?"


    Maddox''s hand, which was holding the steering wheel, trembled. He nced sideways at the


    passenger seat. His voice was gentle and soft.


    "Didn''t I tell you? Don''t call me, sir. You should call me Daddy."


    Beanie blinked his eyes and looked at him innocently.


    "Huh? Why don''t you try calling me Daddy?" After saying that, Maddox felt his heartbeat increase


    rapidly. However, after holding his breath for a long time, he didn''t hear a soft "daddy". Instead,


    Beanie just kept silent and quiet.


    Maddox could not help but nce at him.


    "Why aren''t you saying anything?"


    Beanie pursed his lips and then said, "I won''t call you that."


    Maddox held his breath as he heard this.


    "Why not?"


    "Mommy didn''t say that you''re my daddy. I won''t simply call you that."


    So that was how it was. Maddox smiled faintly and said, "But your mommy didn''t say that I''m not


    your daddy. Also, look at how alike we look. I must be your daddy, right?"


    After these words； the boy came forward and stared at him carefully. Then, he sunk back into his


    seat and crossed his arms in front of his chest, acting like a little adult.


    "No, even if you look like me, I can''t call you Daddy."


    "Why?"


    "Humph, even if you are really my daddy, I won''t acknowledge you as my dad."


    His words were like an arrow straight to Maddox''s heart. The light coincidentally turned red, so he


    stopped the car and stared at Beanie.

    "Can you tell me why?"


    Maddox felt something odd about Beanie who looked so simr to him. He had an indescribable


    feeling welling up in his heart.


    Abigail was the only rtive he had left.


    Although they were not directly rted by blood, but... they were distant rtives.


    But now, there was a boy with his blood flowing in him.


    This feeling was exciting and wonderful.


    "Mommy had always been taking care of me since I was born. I''m already five years old, and


    suddenly a daddy appears. Why should I acknowledge you as my daddy? I don''t want to!"


    After that, he turned his head away angrily.


    Maddox suddenly fell silent as he heard what Beanie said.


    For five years, Minerva had always been taking care of Beanie, but he was nowhere to be found.


    He had never seen his son and he did not even fulfil his duty as a father.


    A woman raising a child all by herself...


    Maddox wouldn''t know how hard it would be if he didn''t experience it himself.


    However, he had this kind of experience. When he was a child, he was raised singlehandedly by his


    mother. He knew how difficult that kind of life was.


    "Beanie," Maddox suddenly called out.


    "What?" Beanie turned around and looked at him.


    Maddox looked at him and his thin lips curled up slowly. "Are you speaking up for your mommy?"


    Beanie snorted, "Mommy doesn''t need me to speak up for her. She has always been the best."


    "Of course, I know that your mommy is the best," Maddox said helplessly, "But I''m not a bad person


    either. It was my fault for not taking care of you for the past five years. So... Now that I''ve regretted


    it, I want to personally take care of you and make up for it. Will you let me do that?"


    Beep.


    As soon as the voice fell, car honks echoed from behind. The traffic had turned green, but he was


    distracted as he was talking with Beanie.


    Maddox drove the car and said, "Alright, I will tell you more when we get home. You are not allowed


    to call me sir anymore. You have to call me Daddy."


    Beanie sat there, blinking his eyes. He looked innocent and lovely, but there was a hint of


    cunningness in his eyes.


    He hadn''t fulfilled his duty as a father for five years. Now, he wanted to acknowledge his son as


    soon as they met. He didn''t do much as a father, but he thought highly of himself.


    And now he brought him out on his own. It was obvious that he was mad at his mother.


    His mommy was the best person in the world!


    How dare he get angry with his mommy? What a jerk!


    Beanie cursed furiously in his heart, and he was secretly scheming something.


    "A*shole daddy, you''ve made Mommy suffer so much. I have to stand up for her and let you suffer


    tenfold."


    It was alreadyte at night, but Maddox drove for a long time and took Beanie to Ocean Vi.


    The few people who were guarding at the door were a little surprised to see Maddox''s car returning.


    Why would he return to Ocean Vi this early? Could he have brought back Mrs. Yardley?


    However, when the car passed by, they quickly froze on the spot. It was after a moment before they


    came to their senses.


    "What the f*ck? Are my eyes ying tricks on me? Someone was sitting in the front passenger


    seat, right? Or am I seeing things?"


    "I feel like I''ve seen a ghost... There seemed to be a child in Mr. Yardley''s passenger seat?" "You


    said it in such a negative way. Mr. Yardley is one of a kind. He''s a good person. How could you


    have seen a ghost? Who is that kid?"


    "No! The child looked exactly like Mr. Yardley!"


    "F*ck! Was that his son?" They looked at each other and suddenly fell silent.


    After some time, they eximed at the same time.


    "Since when did he have a son??"


    Meanwhile, Maddox stopped the car and opened the door for Beanie. When Beanie got out of the


    car, he carefully reached out his hand to block the roof of the car to prevent Beanie from bumping


    into it.
