Chapter 313


    “Yes, Mr. Melendez.”


    Just as Emmett was feeling frustrated, Sophia called again, but he declined without hesitation.


    But a whileter, his phone showed a call from Aiden.


    With a slight hesitation, Emmett answered the call, and Aiden’s voice came through.


    “Dad, why haven’t you and Mome back yet?”


    “I’m a bit tied up, so I might get back a bitte.”


    “Are you guysing back at all? Grandma insisted we meet a woman, iming she’s our biological


    mom.”


    At this, Emmett immediately frowned, “Listen to me, whatever your grandma does, you and Alex just


    ignore her! Find an excuse about studying or something; I’m on my way back!”


    “Got it, Dad.”


    After hanging up, Emmett immediately made a U-turn and headed home.


    Upon arrival, he spotted a red car parked in his yard.


    This definitely wasn’t a Melendez family’s car!


    “Son, you’re finally back.” His mother hurried out as soon as she spotted his car with a smile on her


    face, “I knew you’de back. Come, let me introduce you to Leah.”


    Leah?


    Emmett stared at the vaguely familiar face before him, his expression darkening, “Why are you here


    again? Didn’t I tell you to vanish from the kids’ lives?”


    After he spoke, Leah’s eyes instantly welled up. She backed away in fear, hiding behind Sophia.


    “I’m sorry; I didn’t n on disturbing your lives. Meeting your mom was an ident. If this is causing


    trouble… I’ll leave right now.”


    As she finished, she tried to leave, but Sophia grabbed her, turning to her son.


    “What the hell are you doing? She’s their biological mother; are you nning on lying to them and


    saying that ra is their real mother?”


    “The kids are old enough to know who their mother is; I don’t need to lie! But I will never have anything


    to do with this woman! Even if I didn’t have ra, I’d never let her step foot in my house, let alone


    marry her!”


    Leah’s face turned pale. She looked like a lost and pitiful kitten.


    After seeing him act like this, Sophia got even angrier.


    “Leah’s a girl who bore your two sons; is it right to talk to her like this?”


    “I don’t see a problem with it!”


    “It must be ra spoiling you! You can’t even manage basic manners now! Is this how your father and I


    raised you?”


    “Sorry, my manners aren’t for just anyone.” Emmett turned to Leah, “Leave! Now!”


    After hearing this, Leah seemed shocked, quickly nodding.


    “I’ll leave right away; don’t be angry, and don’t fight with your mom. This is all my fault… Sophia, don’t


    be angry because of me. I did ept the money before, even though I was desperate.”

    “It’s not your fault.”


    “But I agreed to the transaction; I shouldn’t be here now. This is my fault. Stop fighting; I’ll leave right


    away.”
