Chapter 5


    Alex was over the moon, “Really? You agreed just like that? Then my mom-”


    Once Emmett heard that, his face tumed stem and he cut off Alex’s words, ‘You don’t have a mom. You


    only have me! Come home with me”


    Alex was taken aback and hustled into the car. He headed back to the Melendez family mansion with


    Emmett.


    “Aiden, you’re finally back!”


    As soon as they got out of the car, the butler Henry spotted him and was so thrilled he was on the


    verge of tears


    Ever since Aiden joined the Melendez family, it was Henry who watched him grow up, he treated Aiden


    as if he was his own child.


    “Alden? My name’s not Aiden, it’s Alex!”


    “Sweetie, you are Aiden, you’re our precious Melendez family member! Don’t be angry, and don’t run


    away from home anymore! Don’t be mad at your dad, he loves you!”


    Run away from home?


    Alex got more and more baffled as he listened, until his gazended on a photo hanging on the living


    room wall!

    Wasn’t that him? But he didn’t own the clothes in the photo, and he didn’t remember taking that picture!


    Could it be… they all mistook him for someone else. Was this why they brought him here?


    Alex’s eyes darted around and he pointed at the photo, “Um… is that me?”


    “Of course it’s you!” Henry grabbed his small hand, “Who else could it be? Come, let’s go have some


    ice cream sundae and check out the full set of Transformers toys your grandparents got for you!”


    Alex’s eyes lit up at that, “Ice cream sundae? A full set of Transformers? Are those mine?”


    “There you go. Aiden. Finally a smile!” His usual quiet demeanor was just like Emmett’s. This sudden


    burst of energy was a pleasant surprise for Henry


    Before they left, Alex stuck his tongue out at the Aiden in the photo, and mumbled, “I really want to y


    with the Transformers and eat ice cream sundae, so I’ll borrow your name. I am “Aiden” for now! You


    won’t mind, right?”


    The next morning, as usual, Emmett finished his morning workout and was about to head to the office.


    Normally, he would just leave, but today, he made a detour to his son’s room.


    He quietly opened the door, and the little guy was still sleeping! His whole body was sprawled on the


    pillow. His sleeping position was a sight to see, yet it was so adorable it tugged at Emmett’s


    heartstrings!


    He smiled slightly, closed the door behind him, turned around and said, “Matt, cancel the afternoon


    meeting. I’m taking him to the amusement park”


    Matt was taken aback, but quickly nodded, “Yes, sir!”


    Emmett and Matt got into the car and drove towards the office. On the way, Emmett routinely opened


    hisptop to check on some documents


    Suddenly, a sudden brake made hisptop fall to the car floor!


    Emmett frowned, about to say something, when suddenly there was frantic knocking on the car


    window. He looked over to see a woman with a bloody face appearing in his view!


    “Help me, please!” Her voice sounded weak, and her body was swaying unsteadily.


    Upon seeing this, Matt quickly said, “Sorry, sir. I’ll go shoo her away right now!”


    “Hold on.” Emmett was staring at the girl outside the window. He was surprised because he didn’t feel


    the usual repulsion towards her


    For many years, he lived alone, not because he was aloof, but because he had a condition. Whenever


    he saw a woman get close to him, he would uncontrobly want to escape, bing agitated and


    even irrational.


    But now, looking at the woman outside the window, he didn’t feel that way. It was like… like that woman


    back then, he didn’t feel disgusted but rather attracted, unable to resist her allure all night.


    “Let her in”
