"Sit over there, away from me," Sadie said, her gun pressed against Micah's chest, her eyes as sharp as the gun itself.

Micah frowned and sat on the single sofa nearby.

Sadie holstered her gun and tucked Little Coco in with a blanket.

"I heard you were quite impressive today." Micah deliberately started a conversation.

Sadie ignored him, sitting on the sofa and gently patting Little Coco to sleep.

Micah softly reminded, "Although Selina is Nick's personal assistant, she is not very skilled. You managed to overpower her today; it was just luck. If it had been someone else, you could have been in danger. So, next time you encounter such situations, you should be more cautious."

"It's none of your business," Sadie bluntly interrupted him.

"Of course, it is my business. You are the children's mother." Micah leaned in. "If something happens to you, they will be heartbroken."

"Speaking of which, I need to discuss something with you." Sadie glanced at the children on the bed, lowering her voice. "From today, Nathan and the others will come back to live with me. You're not to disturb them anymore." "No way," Micah immediately refused. "Nathan and the others have changed their surname to mine, and their household registration is under my name. Legally, they should live with me. Emotionally, they are accustomed to the Clemens family's life."

"If Nathan and the others can change their surname from Roth to Clemens, they can also change it back from Clemens to Roth." Sadie said arrogantly, "Being able to adapt to the Clemens family's life means they can adapt to the James family's life."

Micah's brows furrowed tightly. "Sadie, don't act recklessly out of anger. I have full authority over the Clemens family, but you don't have over the James Group."

"You have full authority." Sadie mocked. "Then, everything two years ago was all your duty. In that case, I don't need to seek revenge from anyone else, just you."

"The events from two years ago are quite complex. Given the chance, I will explain it to you slowly," Micah patiently said. "But for now, you need to handle the children's situation rationally."

"I am being rational." Sadie looked at him coldly. "That's why I can't let a stepmother influence my children."

"Who's stepmother?" Micah was at a loss for words. "The things in the news are all fake, and you believe them."

"I saw it with my own eyes, you two in bed." Sadie was furious. "Do you think I'm blind?"

"Think about it. You just happened to show up at that time." Micah frowned. "With your current intelligence, you should understand."

"Even if someone set you up, Mr. Clemens, you had to fall into the trap willingly," Sadie sneered coldly. "No one forced you to go to the hotel, dragged you into the room, undressed you, and climbed into your arms."

Micah was speechless. That process was indeed hard to explain, and the more he said, the worse it might get.

"You can't explain, do you?" Sadie, seeing he didn't explain, grew angrier. "Not only that, you also pretended to be two different people to deceive me. You acted very convincingly, playing the role of Male with great expertise." "Alright, go ahead and scold me." Micah decided not to explain further. "As long as it makes you happy, you can scold me however you want. If that's not enough, you can even hit me."

"Beating you would be letting you off too easily." Sadie coldly smiled. "Rest assured, I won't let a single one of them off who bullies me or hurts me."

"For that incident back then, I will give you an explanation," Micah said, becoming serious. "I am currently gathering evidence, and when the time is right, I will submit the evidence to the authorities and personally ensure they handle it." "Save your efforts." Sadie dismissed him. "I have my own ways."
