Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 409: In the near future, you will return...
Adrian refused: "No, we must leave today."
Benjamin felt rejected, a little embarrassed.
Originally, he thought his dad would agree with him!
He looked at Adrian and, without sparing his dad, pointedly said: "Dad, are you afraid that mom will soften after spending too much time with grandpa and agree to take over Whitehill? Besides, you are also afraid that mom will agree to marry Uncle Galan, that’s why you’re in such a hurry to take us away?"
Adrian looked at Benjamin and didn’t deny it.
Benjamin was angry, "Dad, you’re not trusting mom!"
Adrian looked at Benjamin and spoke coldly: "Dad trusts your mom, but not your grandpa!"
Benjamin: "..."
Well, regarding this point, he too didn’t really trust grandpa.
After all, grandpa is the king of Whitehill, and he said those things that day.
Benjamin looked at Adrian and assured, "Dad, don’t worry, my brother and I will keep an eye on grandpa."
Daniel agreed, "Yes, dad, we’ll watch over grandpa, just let mom stay here for a few more days."
The two treasures truly cared for their mom, which made Adrian very pleased.
But remaining in Whitehill was absolutely not feasible.
Besides being bothered by what Muir said, things in River City required his attention, and he didn’t want to leave Melody and the kids here while heading back alone.
Adrian looked at the two kids with warm eyes, "Dad believes you can keep an eye on the king, but there’s an issue in River City that dad has to return to handle."
Hearing Adrian say this, Benjamin immediately wanted to say, "Then let dad return alone, and I along with brother and mom will stay here."
But before he could speak, Adrian continued saying: "Dad doesn’t want to be separated from you, let’s return to River City together. If you want to come back here again in the future, wait until dad is available, and then I’ll accompany you."
Whitehill is always Melody’s maternal home, and Muir is forever Melody’s biological father, Adrian knew clearly he couldn’t prevent Melody and the kids from returning here.
Of course, he wouldn’t stop Melody.
But he would accompany her back, definitely not giving Muir any chance.
This time regarding the situation in Whitehill, Adrian hadn’t planned to help, more accurately he hadn’t planned to assist Lisa and Muir.
His reason for not helping was simple. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
First, Lisa is Melody’s mother’s murderer; whether she lives or dies, what does it have to do with him?
Secondly, Muir’s attitude had angered him, making it better to teach Muir a lesson and dispel the idea of Melody inheriting Whitehill.
Besides dealing with the masked man, he hadn’t even let Locke and Ned take action, merely letting them protect Melody and the kids.
And previously he stopped Bella Sutton, simply because it’s Melody’s maternal home, and he couldn’t watch Bella destroy Melody’s family.
This was his bottom line.
It means even without that young man’s appearance, he wouldn’t have watched Bella destroy Whitehill.
But about Lisa’s life or death, and the lesson Muir deserved, he wouldn’t interfere.
...
On that day, Adrian took Melody Parker and the kids away from Whitehill, boarding a plane back to River City.
Muir saw them off.
Though he agreed to Melody leaving, as the time to leave approached, Muir held onto Melody’s hand, unwilling to let go.
His daughter had only been reinstated for a short while, barely enjoying a few days by his side, and now she had to leave again.
However, with Whitehill currently in chaos, everything needed careful adjustment, so he could only let them temporarily leave.
Seeing Muir’s tears streaming down, Melody couldn’t help but shed tears as well.
She looked at Muir and made a firm promise: "Dad, don’t worry, I’ll bring the kids back to see you."
"Good, good," Muir spoke hoarsely, looking at the plane’s spinning propellers, finally letting go of Melody’s hand, "Go on."
"Melody, let’s go," Adrian gently spoke, wrapping his arm around Melody’s waist.
Melody looked at Muir and softly bid farewell, "Dad, take care."
Muir nodded, "Hmm, dad will."
Benjamin and Daniel looked up at Muir, waving at him, "Grandpa, goodbye!"
Muir affectionately looked at the two kids and waved, "Goodbye, kids!"
Under Muir’s gaze, Melody and her group boarded the plane.
The plane took off, quickly disappearing from Muir’s view.
After sending off Melody and Adrian’s group, Muir returned to the palace.
Entering the palace, Muir summoned the guard to bring Eli and the young man who had saved Eli’s life before.
Muir looked at the two and solemnly spoke: "Eli, your elder sister is always Princess Butterfly, the destined heir of Whitehill; Whitehill should be inherited by her. But after this incident, Whitehill has been severely impacted. Moreover, your elder sister did not grow up in Whitehill... Dad wants you and Kuhn (the young man) to assist her in ascending to the throne of Whitehill, no matter what, in the near future. Can you do it?"
Eli and Kuhn nodded...
"You may go now," Muir waved his hand, allowing them to leave.
After Eli and Kuhn withdrew, Muir turned and entered a secret chamber, taking out preserved pills and the Butterfly Jade Pendant.
The pill was Melody’s lifesaving medication, the Butterfly Jade Pendant had returned to Whitehill, but Melody...
Melody, you will return, and you will come back to assume everything you should bear.
If you stray from fate, your life will be as unfortunate as dad’s; dad absolutely won’t let you make such foolish and willful decisions.
Moreover, Whitehill’s destiny hinges on you alone; it’s a responsibility granted by heaven, and you must shoulder it, you must undertake it.
Melody, whatever dad does, it’s all for your good, for the good of all Whitehill... Father knows, soon you will return...
...
The news about Malcolm Moore and Serena Sterling’s engagement spread like wind through River City’s streets.
And the reason it was known to everyone originated from a decision by Charles Moore.
On the day the engagement between Malcolm and Serena was settled, after leaving the Sterling family, Charles conceived this idea of handing over the entire Morris Group to Malcolm.
Today was the day of Morris Group’s board meeting, and it was also the day Charles planned to formally give the Morris Group to Malcolm.
At the board meeting, Charles and Malcolm attended together.
Looking at his son, who remained unmoved by honor or disgrace beside him, Charles smiled with satisfaction.
