Chapter 7 Surprise

• The three of them were filled with excitement. It felt like reconnecting with an old friend after a long time.
• Caspar approached Joey with a confused expression and asked, "What are you doing here, Joey?"
• Joey tilted his head and remained silent.
• "Caspar, Joey must have come with his parents to attend the engagement banquet," Carol thought for a moment, and this seemed like the most plausible reason.
• Caspar's face lit up with hope as he asked, "Do you happen to know someone named Fred?"
• Joey nodded.
• Caspar and Carol were both surprised. They didn't expect the little kid to actually know Fred!
• Both of them exclaimed at the same time, "Can you take us to find him?"
• Although Joey didn't understand why they wanted to find his father, he felt they were good friends and would naturally lead them.
• So he pointed downstairs and then went down first, showing them the way.
• As Fred entered the hotel lobby, he found himself surrounded by a crowd.
• He wore a sharp, tailored suit and exuded nobility with every movement, but his tense profile kept people at a distance.
• When Caspar and Carol saw him in person, they couldn't help but be stunned.
• Is he their father?
• It must be said that their mother had good taste, as he looked quite handsome, stylish, and wealthy.
• At the same time, in the hotel's backstage control center, Mia was about to upload the video of Marie's arson five years ago when she unexpectedly saw Caspar and Carol on the surveillance cameras.
• They were supposed to stay at home. How did they end up here?
• In that moment of surprise, something even more shocking caught her eye.
• Carol hugged Fred tightly, burying her face in his leg in front of everyone.
• Mia, " ... "
• Fred, " ... "
• Everyone, " ... "
• What is Carol doing?
• Mia was confused because her children didn't tell her about their plan beforehand, leaving her in the dark.
• Mia wasn't the only one who was dumbfounded. Even Fred was taken aback.
• Where did this child come from?
• He looked down at the little girl clinging onto him tightly, furrowing his brow and commanding coldly with his dark eyes, "Let go!"
• Carol held onto her father tightly and spoke in a high-pitched voice, "I won't let go. I finally found Daddy and I won't let you go, no matter what."
• Daddy?
• As soon as the little girl spoke, the entire room fell silent.
• The room fell silent momentarily, but soon everyone was talking non-stop!
• Everyone began talking at once, discussing how Fred had only acknowledged one son five years ago. Now, five years later, another little child was clinging to his leg, calling him Daddy. What kind of trick was this?
• At that moment, Mia was shocked and forgot why she came.
• These two children were really playing tricks on her. She didn't even know who their father was. Still, they came directly to the engagement banquet to seek their father's acknowledgment.
• They didn't need to go about helping her get revenge and ruin Marie's engagement banquet in such a way.
• "What's happening, Fred?" Manda asked, her expression unhappy. How could a child suddenly appear at the engagement banquet?
• Fred crouched down and met Carol's eyes, feeling a strange familiarity.
• After a while, he finally spoke hoarsely, "What's your name?"
• "Carol Sherwood."
• Who is your mother?
• "My mother is Mia Sherwood, and I have an older brother named Caspar."
• Carol gestured towards Caspar, who was nearby.
• Everyone turned to see Caspar standing next to Joey, who looked identical to him in age, height, weight, and appearance.
• From a distance, they appeared to be identical twins.
• There was noise coming from the lobby again, and people were chatting.
• Marie saw the commotion as she came downstairs, feeling nervous and uneasy.
• The little girl said her mother was Mia, but Mia had taken the child away. Could it be that Mia was pregnant with triplets?
• She realized she had been too careless.
• Not only was Mia not dead, but she had also brought twins to ruin her engagement. She wouldn't let Mia have her way!
