Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom -
Chapter 710 The Wonder of Genetics
He continued, "They must have noticed the moment we caught Jarvis, so we were actually one step behind."
I finally understood what he had planned. He had been doubly prepared, fearing that if they missed their target, their next step would be compromised. It wasn't about excluding the Huffman family.
"We need to stick to our principles when dealing with the Huffman family. It's not about exclusion." He tightened his arm around me and gently stroked my back. "I know I let you down."
"Don't blame yourself. Maybe my father's ordeal just isn't over yet," I comforted Atlas. "I know you're more anxious about this than I am."
"I've already arranged for a meeting with the patriarch of the Huffman family. Rest assured, I won't give up any leads. But we need to plan things carefully before we replace him. We can't waste any opportunities." "Do you think he's in danger?" I asked with concern.
"No. Based on the current situation, they must have other plans. He should still be there. The reason I retreated completely was because we weren't totally prepared. I didn't want to pressure them either. We can only replace a way through when they let their guard down.
Then, he muttered to himself, "Looks like your father is still useful to them."
When Atlas said that, I sensed that he must have some clues. But I stopped myself from asking too much about it as I saw that he was unhappy. I was afraid I would just add to the pressure he was feeling.
I knew that Atlas had dedicated a lot of effort to replaceing Rory over the years. He had never stopped looking for him.
"Promise me you won't hide anything from me. You need to make sure you're safe. A member of my family is suffering already. I won't let you suffer as well." I looked up at him earnestly.
He smiled and kissed my forehead. "Don't worry. I won't take any unnecessary risks because I have you now. I won't do anything that'll separate us ever again."
I felt deeply moved but also a little melancholic.
The next day was Saturday, and I got up early to drive to Johnson's house to pick up Myra and the kids.
Since Grandma Rose was still at the house, I thought I'd spend the day with her. I hadn't had a chance to see her properly since she came to Pleca Park.
I told Ivanna to stay with Lauren at the hospital since I planned to stay at Pleca Park today to spend the day with the kids and the older woman.
When I picked up Myra and returned
to Pleca Park, she was enchanted by the beautiful scenery. She grabbed my hand in disbelief and asked, "Is
this your new home, Chlo? Wow, it's
like a dream house!"
I smiled, "You should come visit us more if you like it so much. You can come here on the weekends, and we'll have a great time."
The two children in the courtyard livened up the place. Johnson's son could already walk and chased after Ava everywhere. Jenny took great care of them.
I really liked Jenny. She was a very
sensible child. She and Ava weredike twins, and they were inseparable. The little one was excited to and giggled non-stop.

I told Myra about the little boy's father. She was glad, but also worried. After all, she had been taking care of him for some time and had developed a strong bond with him. She was afraid he might end up in the wrong family and be influenced negatively. But when I mentioned Annika, she wanted to
see her.
I saw that Myra was eager and curious, so I patted her shoulder and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to meet Annika."
Myra grew extremely excited and looked at me. "What about the little guy?"
I handed him over to my mom and Molly. Then, I drove straight to Arkadia Plaza.
When Myra saw Annika, she whispered, "My goodness, their genes are strong. He looks so much like his aunt. I hope he'll have a good home." Annika had an excellent memory. She remembered what happened when I visited a few days ago and thanked me profusely.
Myra, seeing her gentle demeanor, finally felt relieved.
As we left the mall's entrance, Stella walked in. She was with another woman. When she saw me, she was stunned, and her eyes narrowed. Then, she smiled calmly and said something to the woman before approaching me.
"Do you want to hang out for a bit, Chloe?"
