Chapter 6

Chapter 6 At the same time, in the hotel room. Although Molly had reminded her three children to not wander around, the active Ben could not control himself anymore, though Molly had just left for less than ten minutes. He tugged on the hem of Alex’s shirt and suggested, “Alex, let’s go out and play, okay? Mommy isn’t coming home anytime soon, and I heard that there’s a lot of entertainment in this hotel. The adult games are open for children as well. I want to check it out!” Claudia jumped to them after hearing what Ben had said and acted cute to Alex as she pulled his arm. “I’m hungry, Alex. I want to eat something. I’ve done my research before we came here. This hotel offers food for 24 hours, and I heard that their afternoon tea is great. I want to try it out. Could you go with me?” Alex already expected his siblings to lose control of themselves, so he just typed away on his keyboard calmly as he responded, “Each of you has different suggestions, and I can’t fulfill both. Choose one among yourselves!” Ben and Claudia listened to Alex as they exchanged looks. Ben immediately pulled a long face and said, “When will mommy change the ‘ladies first’ rule? Good things never come to me!” Claudia comforted him with a smile. “Being courteous to women is what a gentleman should do. You’ve got to get used to this, Ben!” Alex also knocked on Ben’s head as he consoled him, “You will have your turn soon. We can ask mommy to bring us there when she gets back...... As for now, let’s bring Claudia to eat! However, I have an important task for Claudia after we’re done eating!” “What task?” Claudia inched closer diligently as she asked. Alex pointed at the red dot on the computer screen, saying, “There’s a tracking device in mom’s luggage. I tracked it down just now and found that her luggage is in this exact hotel, which means... The CEO of Anderson Corporation is very likely to stay in this hotel as well. While we’re eating later, think of a way to approach him. Then, pretend that you are lost. When mom comes back, I’ll bring her to find you! That will create a chance for them to meet each other!” Claudia obviously did not know what had happened at the airport, so she looked rather confused. So, Ben explained everything to her. After listening to Ben, Claudia’s eyes sparkled. “Are you saying that the man, who was probably our ‘daddy,’ stays here?” Alex nodded, “Yup.” “That’s amazing! I didn’t expect to meet daddy so soon!” Claudia immediately cheered and patted her chest as she guaranteed, “Don’t worry, leave this to me. I’ll definitely complete this mission!” “Good girl.” Alex tapped on her cheeks lovingly. Then, the three of them kept away their stuff and walked downstairs... At the same time, Molly was still on her way to the May Residence, completely unaware of her three children’s plan. After twenty minutes or so, she arrived at the May family’s mansion. Molly got down from the car and looked at the familiar building that was not far from her. It was just like yesterday. The embarrassment of getting kicked out by her own father and the despair and helplessness of having nowhere to go... Everything was still vivid in her memory! Molly’s heart was filled with emotions, and she had to take some time to calm herself down. She took a deep breath and was about to press the doorbell. Suddenly, a Porsche sports car parked behind her. The driver horned and poked his head out from the driver’s seat. He had an elegantly handsome face and was asking her, “Miss, are you here to see someone from the May family?” Molly looked in the direction of the voice and realized that the person who was talking to her was her ex-fiancé, Adam Herring! The funny thing was...he seemed to not know that she was Molly May... Adam really did not recognize her! He came to the May family today because he heard that the country bumpkin was back, so he could not wait to cancel their engagement. However, he did not expect to bump into a beauty with a killer figure in front of the May Residence’s door as soon as he arrived! Adam greeted Molly with what he thought was gentleman-like and was also flashing her his signature elegant smile! When Molly saw it, she only found him utterly pretentious. Back then, she was not exposed to society much when she came to the city. So, she thought Adam was the most outstanding man she had known in her life. For that reason, she fell in love with him and accepted the engagement. Six years ago, what did this man say after her name was tarnished? “Molly May, where did you get the confidence to even think that I’ll marry you? Why don’t you have a good look at yourself? You are old-fashioned and tasteless. I’m going to be embarrassed if I marry you! I tolerated you because of our family. Now that you are filthy, do you still expect me to want you? Piss off! You better act like you don’t know me the next time we meet.” His insults were ringing in her ear back then. Now, the same man was flirting with her. Molly sneered in secret as she looked away coldly, not even bothering to respond to him. She reached out to press the doorbell as she waited for someone to open the door. Adam was stunned when he saw it. The Herring family was rather notable in Northfolk, so he had a name to himself in the upper-class circle. People call him the elegant man, so there were not many women who were not interested in him, let alone showing him such a disdainful expression. He was in disbelief, so he immediately got down from the car and walked toward Molly as he asked gently, “Miss, who are you looking for in the May family? Is it Mr. or Mrs. May? Or is it Ms. May? If so, you might have to wait for a while as they’re still on their way back here.” Molly was shocked to hear that. ‘Walter and the rest of them weren’t home?’ ‘Great! ‘That way, I can visit grandpa before I deal with the revocation of the engagement.’ While she was still in her thoughts, the May Residence’s door opened. Leonardo Bernard, the butler, was the one who opened the door! The old man immediately recognized Molly as he smiled warmly. “Ms. Molly, you are finally here. Grandpa Dave has been nagging for some time. Hurry in.” Molly nodded and walked in, unbothered to spare Adam a glance. Adam was gaping as if he had received the biggest blow in his life. He then asked Leonardo, “What did you call her just now?” Leonardo responded coldly, “Ms. Molly... She’s the real heiress of the May family, Ms. Molly May!” Adam’s eyes widened in shock, and his face was filled with disbelief. ‘How is this possible?!’ ‘The woman back there was Molly? The country bumpkin?!’
