Chapter 48


    Hold up, who’re ya?”


    ra froze, turning around…


    For a split second she felt like her soul was about to jump out of her body!


    The boy standing before her looked exactly like Alex!


    Exactly the same!


    When Aiden saw ra there, he was also taken aback.


    “Mommy?”


    “You. You’re Emmett’s son?” ra was stumped, she felt like she was about to lose her mind.


    Aiden nodded his head, seeing a servant approaching, he quickly pulled ra into a room nearby,


    “Mommy, what are you doing here?”


    “I was brought here by Emmett…” ra paused, suddenly asking, “What did you just call me, mommy?


    You. You know who I am…”


    “Of course I do! I’ll exin everythingter! Mommy, can you tell me why Alex was sent away? I’ve


    been looking for him, but I can’t find him!”


    So… Alex and Aiden had already me!!


    They knew everything!


    “Mommy?”


    “Ah… Alex, Alex went to Europe, he had some business to take care of.”


    “You’re afraid of being found out by my dad, aren’t ya?”


    Aiden looked around and then whispered into ra’s ear, “Mommy, I don’t know what happened


    between you and dad, but right now it’s not safe for us to be together for too long So, every night when


    my grandmother goes to sleep at around half past eight, I’ll sneak out and call you, youe pick me


    up, okay?”


    ra nodded nkly.


    Aiden reached out his small hand, “Mommy, give me your phone.”


    ra quickly handed it over.


    “This is my number, now I have yours too, I’ll contact you before I head out! Youe pick me up


    around the Melendez family estate”


    “Okay!”


    Aiden gave a small smile and turned to leave.


    ra instinctively grabbed her son’s hand. They stared at each other for a few seconds…


    Soon, tears welled up in ra’s eyes, and they began streaming down her face.


    “All these years, I’m so sorry, kiddo…” she uttered, her voice filled with remorse


    “I know you had your reasons, mommy I don’t me you her son replied, disying a remarkable


    understanding.


    ra bit her lip forcefully, determined to conceal her tears. She didn’t want her son to witness her


    crying during their first meeting. She had envisioned this moment countless times, wondering whether


    he would me her, hold resentment towards her, or perhaps even curse her. She had prepared


    herself to endure all of that, as she believed it was the retribution she deserved. However, she never


    anticipated that he wouldn’t harbor any resentment towards her. This realization only intensified ra’s


    feelings of guilt.


    “Mommy, if I stay away for too long, grandma will start searching for me! I have to go,” Aiden gently


    reassured ra, patting her hand. “We’ll meet again tonight, I promise.” ra nodded fervently, her


    gaze fixed on Aiden as he vanished from her sight. In that moment, it felt as if she were caught in a


    dream. The man from her past turned out to be Emmett The confusion within her mind was


    overwhelming, leaving her unable to sort out her thoughts.


    Suddenly-


    She felt someone tap her from behind!
