The little guy I found didn't say anything.

His temperament, dressing and dressing did match the status of the Carter family.

Besides, the man's voice

Thinking of this, I tried my best to suppress the shock in my heart. Then I took out my phone and pushed it to Daphne's hand. "Take my phone. Tell later that it's you who were calling. I'll take Aviva and Cyrus with me. I'll wait for you in the parking lot."

Ignoring the pitiful look of the child, I strode out of the box, not daring to look back all the way.

When I arrived at the parking lot, I looked at the time from time to time, and my heart was full of uneasiness.

I know Penn very well. If there is any clue, it will be enough for that man to find something unusual.

"Mommy, who is that Penn? Why should we hide from him?" Aviva and Cyrus shook MY hands

I came to my senses slowly. I touched their heads and smiled as if nothing had happened. "He's not an important person. You two, if you hear this name in the future, you must stay away from him, okay?"

The two kids nodded, "Okay, Mommy."

"Mommy, we ran so fast just now. If that person suspects us, check the surveillance video and it will be easy to find us." Aviva reminded.

"Mommy, don't worry. I'll handle it."

Cyrus took the computer on the car and typed on the keyboard.

"The surveillance video of the restaurant is done!"

I breathed a long sigh of relief and held the two kids in my arms. "Fortunately, you have solved a big trouble!"

After a while, we arrived at Daphne with a packed box in her hand. The four of us went straight back to the villa.

My two children and I are still hungry. We have packed up all the things that Daphne brought back.

After dinner, the two kids went upstairs to take a shower.

Daphne looked at me meaningfully. "I don't understand why you hide from Penn. Didn't you reach an agreement to divorce him at that time? Why are you so afraid of him now? Besides, you didn't tell me why you divorced. What happened a few years ago?"

Looking into her eyes, I lowered my eyes subconsciously. After hesitating for a while, I managed to tell her what had happened at that time.

"Aimee, how dare you!"

"I don't want him to know the existence of Aviva and Cyrus. Besides, I was afraid that he might have a grudge against me when I drugged him. It's easy for him to take revenge on me in his identity. If I were alone, I might not be afraid of him. But now, I'm still carrying two children."

After saying that, I smiled with self mockery. "Maybe I think too much. Maybe he doesn't care about that at all. After all, I am not an important person."

"Not necessarily!"

Daphne frowned and said, "I think he might have heard your voice. Just now when he entered the room, he asked where you were. It seemed that he came to settle accounts with you!"

Hearing this, I was stunned, and then my heart ached.

Sure enough, for him, there was only hatred left that night

"Don't worry too much. The River City is so big, and your work has nothing to do with him. You may not meet each other."

I nodded slightly.

"Mommy!"

Aviva and Cyrus said.

I stopped talking with Daphne and looked up at the stairs.

The two kids had already taken a shower, and their hair was still half wet. One of them wore a pajamas and came down the stairs.

I suddenly thought of another thing.

"I almost forget that I came back in a hurry this time, and I will be very busy in the following work. I can't take Aviva and Cyrus with me. I want to ask you if there is a suitable kindergarten nearby that they can go to. Besides, I have to find a nanny."

After hearing that, Daphne thought for a moment and said, "there is a good place to go if you want to go to the kindergarten!"

"Tell me."

"There is a noble kindergarten nearby. It's very good. It's famous in River City and has rich teaching. It can learn many languages from many countries. Teachers are famous for their good education. Many children from rich families try their best to send their children inside, so they don't have to worry about their children being bullied inside."

After hearing Daphne's introduction, I immediately said, "really? I'll check it online. If there's no problem, send them there."

The second morning.

After breakfast, I took two kids to the noble kindergarten recommended by Daphne.

I brought two kids here today to complete the enrollment procedures.

As Daphne had said, the threshold of this kindergarten was very high in River City. The students there were either rich or powerful young masters or daughters.

The kindergarten was strict with the selection of parents.

After going through the entry formalities for the children, the principal called a gentle looking kindergarten teacher and asked her to take the two kids to the classroom to get familiar with the environment and classmates.

The two kids waved at me and followed the teacher without crying.

Seeing their backs disappear at the corner, I stood up and said goodbye to the principal.

After I left the kindergarten, I went to the research institute set up by my teacher.

As soon as I entered the lab, i saw a handsome and elegant man in a formal shirt and suit pants walking towards me.

"Aimee, welcome back. I'm glad that we can work together again."

Dexter Finger reached out his hand to me gentlemanly.

I nodded slightly, shook hands with him, and quickly withdrew.

Previously, Dexter had worked with Baldwin's team on many research and development matters abroad.

During that period of time, Dexter had been my assistant. After all, he graduated from a famous school. His ability was once approved by me and Baldwin.

Dexter smiled and said, "I'll take you to your office."

Then he turned around and led the way. Along the way, he introduced the structure and main personnel of the research institute to me.

When we arrived at the office, Dexter looked at me with a smile and said, "I've specially asked someone to decorate this room. It's arranged according to your previous preferences.Outside is Carina's work desk"

I looked around four times and nodded with satisfaction. "Thank you."

After looking around the office, I said to Dexter, "I'm here today to have a good understanding of the specific operation of the Research Institute. Please take me there."

After we leave the office area, we go straight to the core area of the Research Institute.

When they arrived at the test area, i saw that many laboratory workers with lab clothes and masks were busy on different test platforms.

I didn't disturb them. I just asked Dexter to briefly introduce each project and the progress of the research.

In the afternoon, I have almost mastered the situation of the Research Institute.

At the same time, I also found an important problem.

When we visited the test area just now, there was a basic working area and it was not operating.

I asked the laboratory workers and got to know that they had used up all the herbs in the incense making and were waiting for the research institute to distribute them.

The same situation happened several times in a row.

Due to the insufficient supply of materials, the research of several projects had to be put aside temporarily, and the time and cost of the project had been greatly increased.

Over and over again, it also caused a great loss to the Research Institute.

After walking out of the test area, I looked at Dexter seriously and said, "because of the slow supply of materials, the research is put aside. What's going on? Haven't you found a way to solve it?"

Dexter stopped smiling and said seriously, "I'm trying to solve this problem."

I frowned and looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"Recently, I've contacted a medicine supplier. I've already talked to them about long-term cooperation, but we're about to sign the contract. The time for signing the contract has been set, and it's tomorrow afternoon.

The reason why things didn't go well before was that the construction of the Research Institute was still in the early stage. There were many complicated things to be dealt with, and the staff was not very stable. It was only during this period of time that it finally stabilized.

In addition, the medicinal materials in River City were monopolized by a large number of material merchants, and there was no supply. Besides, we are new here, so many suppliers maliciously raise the price. It took us a lot of time to raise the price. "

Dexter briefly explained the previous situation.

When I was abroad, I had encountered such a thing more or less.

"Which suppliers are they?"

"If possible, I'll go with you tomorrow when we sign the contract. From now on, I'll take over the Research Institute. Logically, I should also say hello to them."

"Okay, I'll call you tomorrow," said Dexter

I nodded.

When I went back to the office, I saw that the person behind was still there. I was confused and asked, "anything else?"

He smiled, "I want to ask if you have time tonight. Today is the first day. I have made a dinner to welcome you. So that you can know your colleagues."

"Thank you. I'll treat tonight. As the person in charge, I should express my gratitude."

I took out my phone and called Daphne. "Daphne, do you have time tonight? Help me pick up Aviva and Cyrus. I have something to deal with tonight. I can't go back until later."

I'll start to work after I've arranged the two kids.

It was time to get off work.

After I left the lab, I got on the Dexter's car and headed for the restaurant.

Ten minutes later, the Dexter signaled me to look ahead. "That's it."

I looked up and saw an antique building, which was built near the river and carved with dragon and Phoenix in the distance. It was quite charming.

The name of the restaurant was Wilk.

After Dexter parked the car, he and I walked towards Wilk's door one after the other.

When I arrived at the private room with Dexter, the staff of the research institute had already arrived.

He sat beside me and introduced, "many people have seen Aimee in the daytime, but now we still have to solemnly introduce her to you."

Everyone looked in my direction. I nodded indifferently as a greeting.

"This is Aimee Miller. Everyone knows her name. She is Professor Baldwin's student."

"I admire you very much. I have read every thesis you have published abroad. I really like you so much!"

"It's our honor to work with you!"

I said with a smile, "thank you for your appreciation. I hope we have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

The dinner went on very well.

Many people came to propose toasts, and I accepted them .

I'm not bad at drinking, but there are a lot of people here. Unconsciously, I'm a little drunk.

Seeing that the dinner was about to end, I excused myself to go to the bathroom and washed my face to wake up.

When I came out of the bathroom and went back to the box, my cell phone suddenly vibrated.

I opened it and found it was from my two babies. They asked me when I would go back.

When I saw the message, a warm smile appeared in my eyes. I was about to stop and reply to them.

Suddenly, my shoulder was hit hard and my phone almost flew out.

I clenched my phone and apologized immediately, "I'm sorry..."

Before I finished her apology, the man questioned angrily, "are you blind? Damn it! What a bad luck!"

As he spoke, a strong smell of alcohol spreaded.

I frowned and distanced myself from him.

"I'm really sorry. Are you okay?"

Seeing that he was a drunkard, I was on the alert and apologized again.

As soon as she finished speaking, the person in front suddenly laughed maliciously, and his voice was somewhat erratic. "Little beauty... If I'm okay, you can drink with me for two glasses. I'm glad to make you happy, and I won't haggle with you today!"

Hearing this, I knew that the man in front of me was obviously drunk and unreasonable, so I didn't want to talk to him anymore. I lowered my head and tried to get past him.

As soon as I walked to the drunkard's side, the drunkard's voice sounded again, "don't go, little beauty! I'm very rich. As long as you agree to marry me, I'm sure you'll live a rich life for the rest of your life!"

As he spoke, he laughed lustfully. Seeing that he reached out his hand, my face was slightly cold. I took a step back and kicked the man in the belly.

Because today is the first day I came to the research institute to report. I am wearing formal clothes with a pair of stilettos on my feet. The force of my kick is absolutely not light.

The man was drunk and his face turned pale in an instant. He shook his stomach and fell to the ground.

"Bitch, shame on you! It's your honor that I like you. How dare you kick me!"

After lying on the ground for a long time, the guy gritted his teeth and raised his head, with his eyes red.

I glanced at him in disgust and was about to walk past him.

The man suddenly shouted at the corner, "come on! This bitch dares to hit me, bring her to the box! I'd like to see how she can be rude to me tonight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two tall and strong bodyguards rushed out from the corner. Seeing the man's embarrassed look, the bodyguard hesitated and said, "Master..."

"Leave me alone! Catch her!"

When I heard the footsteps getting closer and closer behind me, my heart tightened. I put one hand into my bag and tightly squeezed the powder. This is the incense making material I took today. It will cause a strong pain when it touches my skin.

If these people dared to approach again, I would let them know that life was worse than death!

When I turned around with the powder, a bodyguard who was about to touch me suddenly screamed and flew out beside me.

The next second, another man also disappeared in front of me in the same way.

I was stunned and then realized that there seemed to be a figure behind me.

I turned around and saw a slender figure standing a few steps away.

When I saw the person, my heart tightened and I felt my scalp was about to explode. Instinctively, I turned around and wanted to run away.

Penn's pov

I looked at the woman in front of me with burning eyes.

In the middle of the dinner party, I felt the room stuffy and decided to go out for some fresh air.

ihad never expected to see this woman.

--Aimee!

It was her!

When I was about to say something, I saw this woman raise her leg and want to run away.

Without thinking too much, I dashed forward and grabbed her wrist. "Aimee! Where else do you want to hide?"

Noticing her struggle, I exerted more strength to my hand.

"Let me go!"

She turned around, gritted her teeth and glared at me.

"Let you go?"

I stared at the face in front of me.

We hadn't seen each other for six years. Her face looked more mature and charming, as usual.

However, she was not as obedient and gentle as she used to be. Instead, she was more aggressive.

There was even a hint of alienation in her eyes!

Realizing this, I was furious. I looked into her eyes coldly and said word by word, "do you think I will let you run away again?"

Seeing Bill, "get rid of these bastards!"

Then I grabbed Aimee's arm and strode into a box.

There was no one in the room.

When I came in, I closed the door.

For a moment, the room was so quiet that we could only hear each other's breath.

"What do you want? Let me go!" She struggled violently.

I pressed her against the wall effortlessly.

There was dead silence in the room.

Suddenly, I found that the woman in my arms stopped struggling. She said indifferently, "Penn, let go of me. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Hearing her indifferent tone, I was slightly stunned. A moment later, I took half a step back, but I still did not let go of her.

"Don't you have anything to tell me?" Seeing the change of her expression, my eyes narrowed slightly.

She said indifferently, "Mr. Carter, we've divorced for six years. I... I don't think I have anything to talk to you."

"What did you call me?"

I pinched her chin and forced her to raise her head.

But she looked away and said nothing.

Seeing her silence, I was even more furious.

Mr. Carter?

Yes, it had been six years!

Wasn't this woman always so cruel?

She was so cruel that she even abandoned her own son and took him as a passer-by!

No one was more cruel than her!

"Aimee, don't pretend to be a stranger in front of me."

I tightened my grip.

Seeing her eyes were full of resistance.

I lifted the corners of my mouth sarcastically. "Wasn't it you who said you liked me and loved me? Now you pretend to be a stranger to me? Have you forgotten what you have done to me? Have you forgotten, I haven't forgotten!"

"I remember. What's wrong? Mr. Carter now feels that he has suffered a loss and wants to take it back? Tell me, how do you want me to compensate you? To be honest, you were unconscious that night, and I didn't feel anything about it. Now I remember, it's just so so. But I did do harm to you, so if you want to compensate, I won't have any objection."

Well, a few years had passed, and this woman knew what to say to piss me off.

That night, I really didn't have any consciousness, and I couldn't remember the specific situation.

I raised her chin and said coldly, "but since you misunderstood me, I don't mind serving you again."

Then I kissed her red lips.

"Penn, let me go! Are you crazy? This is a private room! Someone may come in at any time!"

Feeling her struggle, I stepped back a little. Hearing this, I pulled my lower lip coldly. "So what? Didn't you say that you would compensate me? I want you to pay me back. Are you afraid?"

Seeing that she didn't respond, I leaned over and kissed her again.

Feeling her soft body, I stopped moving and almost pressed against her lips. "Don't you feel it? Why is it so soft? Aimee, your body is much more honest than your mouth!"

she pushed me away and slapped me!

"Penn, didn't you say that you wanted to marry Bonnie? What are you doing now? Are you revenging on me? If so, you did it! I was thoughtless and used such a fierce method to hurt you back then, but as you expected, I didn't pester you anymore, and I won't bother you from now on! So, let's call it a day!"

After saying that, she gave me a hard look, opened the door and ran out without looking back.

"Sir, are... Are you okay?" It was Bill.

With a gloomy face, I touched my face and rubbed the corner of my mouth with my thumb, and my fingertips were wet.

Looking at the blood on his fingertips, I gritted my teeth and replied, "I'm fine."

Then she walked out of the room.

When I walked out of the room, the drunkard and his men were still lying on the ground, holding and screaming.

I cast a cold glance at the person on the ground and turned around to order Bill, "which hand has touched her? Make it all crippled."

"Yes, sir!"

Without saying anything more, I turned around and left.

After the dinner, I was about to go back with Bill. When I arrived at the door of the restaurant, I saw Aimee get on a man's car.

As the car slowly drove away, my face was gloomy and my eyes were tightly locked on it.

After a while, I looked away and ordered Bill, "go and find out who that man is and what's his relationship with her!"

Back to the Cater's mansion.

When I entered the living room, it was already nine o'clock. I looked around and didn't see Lundy. Frowning, I asked, "where is Lundy?"

Cheryl, who was responsible for taking care of Lundy, was coming downstairs. "Master, young Master has taken a shower and is staying in his room. Do you want to go upstairs and see him?"

I nodded slightly and went upstairs.

"Master, there is one more thing..."

Cheryl said hesitantly, "when the young master came back tonight, there was a very serious bruise on his wrist. I asked him, but he refused to tell me. I don't know if he was bullied in the kindergarten. I think we should pay attention to this matter."

"Got it. I'll go upstairs and have a look."

Then she quickened her pace to the door of Lundy and knocked on it.

Soon, Lundy came over and opened the door for me. hE didn't have any reaction when he saw me. he opened the door, turned around and went in.

I followed him and saw him go back to the table and draw something with a brush.

Seeing that he was serious, i didn't disturb him. I waited aside for a while. When he put down his pen, I said in a low voice, "Cheryl said that you were injured and let dad have a look at you."

Lundy showed me her injured hand obediently.

Seeing the wound on his hand, I frowned slightly. "How did you get it? Was it bullied by a child?"

Lundy was stunned and then shook his head hard.

Wasn't he bullied?

"Then what's going on?"

Lundy picked up the brush again and wrote a few letters on the notebook.

"Fell"

After that, he tilted her head with uncertainty.

"Fell down?"

I saw his handwriting and asked him for confirmation.

Lundy nodded.

I breathed a sigh of relief and touched his wound. "Did the teacher apply medicine to you?"

Lundy nodded.

I nodded, looked at his white and tender hands, and said, "the injury has only been healed for a few days. You still need to apply medicine. Daddy will help you, okay?"

The little guy didn't refuse.

I squatted down, picked him up and went downstairs.

When we arrived at the hall, I put the little boy on my lap, sat on the sofa and ordered Cheryl, "bring the medicine box here."

Cheryl brought the medicine box here soon.

I took out the spray and sprayed it on his wound. Then I kneaded him for a while.

Lundy didn't make a fuss. he just pursed his lips and frowned.

I observed his expression from time to time to see if it hurt.

This little guy looked a little like that woman in a serious way.

As if sensing my gaze, Lundy looked up in confusion and pointed at the corner of my mouth with a frown.

I knew what he meant. I held his little hand and comforted him, "it's okay. A little wild cat bit me."

Lundy was even more confused. She grabbed the pen and paper on the tea table and wrote, "cat, where did you get it?"

"It came back from abroad."

After saying that, I didn't want to talk about that woman anymore. i was afraid that I couldn't suppress anger in front of my son.

Seeing that the little boy was still confused, I raised my hand and took away the pen and paper in his hand. "Well, it's about time. Daddy will take you to bed."

..

Aimee's pov

When I took the Dexter's car home, I put the car on the agenda.

When we arrived home, the two kids were still awake and Daphne was watching TV with them in the living room.

As soon as they saw me, the two kids immediately looked away from the TV and trotted over. "Mommy!"

I touched their heads with a smile.

"Did you drink?"

Aviva wrinkled her nose and said, "I'll make you some tea to sober up. You won't feel headache tomorrow morning."

Then she turned around and went into the kitchen.

Cyrus pulled me all the way to the sofa and sat on my laps. He carefully massaged my temples and said, "I'm giving mommy a massage. Mommy doesn't feel uncomfortable."

Daphne's eyes lit up with envy. "Why is my godson so considerate?"

I looked at her with a smile. "Like it? You can have a baby too."

Daphne shook her head repeatedly. "Forget it. I just want to steal these two from your family."

Cyrus comforted her, " you don't have to steal it. If you are drunk, my sister and I will take care of you in the same way."

"The babies are so good. I love you so much!"

I took the sober up tea from Aviva and took a sip.

After drinking the tea, it was late.

"Well, I'm fine. Go upstairs and have a rest!"

I kissed the foreheads of the two kids.

The two kids nodded, said good night to Daphne and went upstairs obediently.

After the two kids went upstairs, the smile on my face gradually faded away.

"What's the matter?"

Daphne turned off the TV and came over to ask.

I hesitated for a moment and told him what happened tonight. "I met Penn at dinner just now."

I couldn't tell anyone about what happened six years ago.

Hearing this, Daphne was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but sigh, "what kind of tragedy is this? The River City is so big. I thought that if you didn't take the initiative to find each other, there would be almost no chance for you to meet each other."

I lowered my eyes.

"So, what do you think after seeing him?" Daphne asked.

My lips twitched. " Six years ago, he and I were over. Now we are just two strangers. I won't be influenced by him anymore. For the rest of my life, I just want to take good care of Aviva and Cyrus and lead a good life with them."

Daphne smiled and patted me on the shoulder. "That's good. You're so excellent, and there are many people chasing after you. Take your time. Let's abandon that scum!"

I nodded slightly and didn't want to continue this topic. So I changed the subject. "By the way, I haven't bought a car since I came back. Today's reception party is held with colleagues' cars. It's not convenient. Are you free tomorrow morning? Can you go with me to pick a car?"

"What do you want to buy? I have several cars in the garage. You can just pick one."

I raised my eyebrows with a smile, "so good?"

Daphne wrapped her arms around my neck and said confidently, "of course. You are my godson's mother, and mine is yours!"

I promise with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Daphne checked the time and found that it was very late. Then she slowly went back to the next room.

After I washed my face, I lay on the bed, but I couldn't fall asleep.

After tossing and turning for a long time, i finally fell asleep.

In a daze, I seemed to return to the empty room of Wilk.
